Yes, definitely engine problem. I was following the trip and noticed that he stayed too many days at the last airport and mentioned weather but also waiting for engine part form florida. That was a clue that some sort of problem was brewing with the engine. And then I saw the flight progress abruptly stopped. I am glad they are ok. The big tires allowed for a nice landing on rugged terrain, I hope!.
