Whilst HUMS is an interesting subject we have no suggestion at this time of any technical failure. History would suggest that sudden power loss in turbine engines at low level is likely to be associated with bird strikes. The location of this incident very close to shore in an area where large flocks of sea birds are common would put this high on the list of possible causes for investigation.
