dunno where the undercarriage problem idea came from, but pilot reported probs with both engines about 13nm NE of Albury and was going to attempt a return to Albury. Shortly after, he reported unable to make Albury and was going for the highway. Then reported unable to make the highway and was trying to make a forced landing in a paddock. I assume by the necessity of a forced landing that he sufferred a double engine failure.
He was above cloud at the time of the initial problem.
Anyone know the specifics of the prob?

Good job on getting it down safely with no injuries. Well done to the pilot.
