I have had the Jetstream since it was released, and fly it very regularly, which makes my recent double issue a strange problem of which I have been unable to diagnose. Recently I have had two DUAL engine flameouts. No warnings, engine's were normal, plenty of fuel and no smoke or flames that signal a catastrophic failure. One was at 4000ft, and I had been there for a few minutes doing a high power cruise. The second was on takeoff, at about 60kts both engines quit. Both incidents took place in the Scottish Highlands, and I was able to normally restart the engines after the second incident without a problem (fuel pumps on, start master to right, feather the props and the ignition was perfect). I even flew the plane for about ten minutes, putting the engines through every conceivable strain and nothing went wrong. Can anybody think of a reason for this? I am stumped, the only thing I can possibly think of is both times I very rapidly opened the throttles, because I was taking off from a short runway and wanted to get the plane airborne. Thanks Raffaele

Funny that!!I was fly Glasgow to Edinburgh, I have Scotflight 2.1 double engine flameout near Cumbernauld, had to do a Sully landing. Then the next night, flying Edinburgh to Belfast, just 40nm from Belfast, same thing happened. I went in to the config, set engine fire to off and disabled all icing (although both times I had no icing warning). Then I done a flight from Edinburgh, headed to Talla then headed 180 degrees at 20'000ft and left it there, got to Algers about 4 hours later (1200nm) and landed, no problems since then. Very strange....Iain
