Thanks for the report Gooneyone, now we have the element of water contamination + possible pilot actions (prop not feathered, pre-flight ?). How difficult is it to drain water on the BN2 ? I remember that some cessna (or maybe piper, it's been so long) aircrafts with bladder type fuel tanks were prone to keep water due to internal wrinkles so during pre-flight no water, during the climbout water poured into the system cutting the engine (s) off !
