Bf110's were rapidly landed/ditched/crashed when engine failure occurred.
Its performance is extremely limited on engine. It is a characteristic of all twins.

You lose an engine, you want to get them down. Especially in combat.

So the answer is no you don't fly the Bf110 on one engine in CloD.

I watched a AI with one engine mid-channel 5000 make it home to the base. The landing was not a success

There are historical accounts of BoB Bf110's making home across the channel.

They bailed out when over France.

This is a bit different, but I remember either Oleg showing us, or maybe it was a training mission in the other game. He-111 successful landing with one engine.

With one engine (depending on damage type) I can fly the He111 and land it perfectly well, its a different beast from the Bf110.

Very nice, and rewarding!... I have a fond memory in the other game spits vs 109 server. Was attacked and lost a engine He-111, huge trailing black smoke all the way back to LaHave. The landing was not the success
