Hi Ryan. Windows updated itself... This (as usual) changed the power settings to the USB's. At some point the computer dropped the throttle quadrant USB which immediately resulted in both engine's failing. I struggled and struggled to restart them in the air without success... I had not realised that I had not throttle quadrant and therefore, no fuel flow when I raised the fuel flow levers... Eventually I figured out what was going on and unplugged and reconnected the USB and started the engines again. It was not a full on stall but the stick-shaker did go off momentarily... I am so fed-up with Windows' updates.... Sorry
