205 Engine failure bucketing

Sounds like the pilot did a good job getting it down and luckily some shallow water. Hopefully we will find out the cause of the engine failure soon.

Probably something similar to the last 205 engine failure, the report will say "all the switches and levers were in the correct positions so... Who knows what happened, these aircraft are not required to have a CVR or blackbox" (And TSB dusts their hands off and walks away)

 

Meanwhile every 205 operator has a cycles-counting computer installed, it has recorded everything but somehow vanishes before the investigators toddle out to the scene!

Was a guardian machine, surprise surprise.

“Lost power” and went into the drink.  Didn’t another 205 take a belly bath like this a couple years ago?  Wonder what the heck caused the forced landing this time.

Lucky it was that shallow

That’s one way to wash it

Any landing you can swim away from is a good one...??

When the aircraft lets you down…?  Yes…

Especially the cycle-counters on Guardian machines...
