Not necessarily, and the interim report suggests there is nothing to indicate engine failure.

Seems strange that with what appears to be a working engine that he turned into the wrong bay with nowhere to go?

"Air crash investigators are mystified as to why a Sydney Seaplanes pilot left the normal flight path and headed into Jerusalem Bay shortly before his plane crashed killing all six people on board.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau's preliminary report into the fatal New Year's Eve incident released on Wednesday found no evidence of problems with the DHC-2 Beaver plane."

A highly skilled pilot too.

Something really odd about this, and what went wrong.

This is only the interim report which means that they haven't has time to do the analysis on all the collected data.

For example; Mobile phones, Go-Pro like devices, PM results, Engine broken down, component fatigue testing....

We may well find out, there is an inference of a possible medical episode, which in turn could have influenced decision making. No doubt what didnt cause the incident will be ruled out in due course.

Yes, that's true, which just increases the mystery ...
