Engine Failure Does Not Cause A Fatal Accident In An Ultralight Aircraft!

"no doubt the 4 turbo props had a lot to do"

 

I believe that there is an extra motor in the fuselage, making it a Five motor plane

 

That extra motor drive a air-compressor that pumps air over the wing flaps, to combat stall when the flaps are at 90 degree.

... From my first engine failure to my last, the very first thing to occur was the startle reflex,

"Sh!t! What`s happening? I don`t believe it!"

An interesting depiction of just that in this happy-ending video from Dan Gryder. 

 

But if you object to being toyed with for 20 mins  - in the name of 'suspense' - I suggest watching the first minute, jumping to 22:00 for the completion of the forced landing and, if you've a mind to, returning to 'go' for the analysis and discussion with the pilot concerned.

Dan is getting too silly to watch. And too much click bait.
