We did as IZH. Engines are seized because of the simulated birds digested by them, so no restart. APU on to regain normal electrical config. Try to make it to departure airfield, but energy is at a premium here so if you waste a tad too much that option is quickly gone, so into the water you go, down until (hopefully) a full stop with a somewhat survivable airframe.
