Bwahahaha. its almost believable, tins.
lets see.........26 minutes at say 500fpm. I get 13000 ft. probably 1000fpm with the wiplines dangling out there, and highly unlikely it was FL260, would point to either partial power loss or a fuel light. I would hazard fuel or oil light or chip detector light to get 26 more mins out there. pretty rare for a partial in the turbs.
Now as this was a 208 and not the 208B with 114a, that would make it 75horses lighter, so maybe the glide ratio was improved without the extra 75 horses being dead weight.
I guess we will all know when the report comes out.
