Neither insurance nor the AAIB appears to have pulled out the previous Twin Comanche that went down in the area. The salvage value of the airframe will be pretty much nil (how much for a light twin with no engines or avionics ??)

The AAIB report will probably be a factual description of the events of the flight, ending with
The pilot was unharmed but was later flown to a mainland hospital as a precaution.
Further investigation as to the cause of the total power loss could not be carried out as the wreckage was not recovered from the sea.
(From the AAIB report of 8 years ago - same type, same place).
