Aircam crash

I was surprised this didn't generate a thread or maybe it did and I missed it. This one made the national news and now Flying magazine published an article that raises alot of questions. The pilot claimed engine failure on a nearly centerline thrust twin that will fly easily on one engine and crashed it upside down into the water with floats.

At least the entire family was spared in this one. I wonder if the FAA will be involved or not since it was in Honduras.

Thoughts?

Re: Aircam crash

Thanks Hotrod I figured I was behind the power curve on this one. I just say the Flying Mag article in an email I got this morning from them.
