Personally, I'm more interested in the accident investigation - all we
know at the moment is the pilot had a discharged battery and the engines
quit.

WOW, great link! Tech details down to millisecond voltage dip measurements.
Hurray for the Poor Man's Black Boxes on those Thielerts. Reading this has
tipped me to beginning my research on getting a Graphic Engine Analyzer with
data logging. I only wish I had done this last week at SNF.

Well at least neither Diamond nor TAE is saying there is no problem and
trying to blame the pilot. This is an excellent first step in getting any
problem fixed.

As a DA42 owner I hope that the "problem" will get fixed by either
Diamond or TAE. However, note that Diamond did blame the pilot because
the pilot did not use the procedures outlined in the POH to start the
second engine.
