The safety of a twin depends on staying proficient. Flying with a multiengine instructor at least twice a year is good, training with Simuflite or FlightSafety is better...even sims like the Frascas and ASTs are good. It is seductive to fly hour after hour after hour without a problem of any kind, and that is when emergency proficiency goes out the window. Gotta make that commitment before you write the check.

The Seneca II is an excellent flying machine with a good safety record. The Continental engines are as bulletproof as turbocharged engines get. I have had five engine "problems" in twins, none of them in Senecas.
