NOW you got it. As a military plane susceptible to flying over combat zones (often as a suppression machinegun plane) if one engine got knocked out it was easy to fly on the other as they were both in-line. A plane with engines on opposite wings is hard to fly on one because of the extreme yaw the remaining engine imparts on the craft.

Your question.
