Interesting news out of the US with a double engine failure on a Cape Air C402

Small aircraft makes emergency landing at Naples Municipal Airport, no injuries reported : Naples : Naples Daily News (http://www.naplesnews.com/news/2009/jan/22/small-aircraft-makes-emergency-landing-naples-muni/)

I would say it was a fuel problem or lack of it . Anyway good job with 6 passengers. Officail report will be good to read.
