In a multi-engine aircraft how does a single engine flight effect the range of the aeroplane?

-To achieve maximum range in level flight, the aircraft must be flown at a speed which produces minimum drag. This however will only be true in no wind.
-When flying into a headwind max range will be reduced and when flying in a tailwind max range will be increased.
-Single engine flight effects range of the aeroplane because it increases the total drag on the aeroplane so the range is decreased.

But to fly a seaplane you need an ASES or AMES--airplane, single engine, sea or airplane, multiengine, sea.
