A Kudlik Aviation Pilatus PC-12/47 conducting flight KUK761, departed from Chesterfield Inlet Airport (CYCS), NU to Rankin Inlet Airport (CYRT), NU. Shortly after starting the descent from 4000 feet ASL, the flight crew heard noise from the engine and then the engine (Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-67B) lost power. The flight crew completed the associated memory items for the engine power loss, declared a MAYDAY, and landed the aircraft on the sea ice with the gear in the retracted position approximately 5 miles east of CYRT.
The ELT did not activate automatically but was manually activated. There were no injuries to the 2 crew and 1 passenger. The local RCMP and fire department responded and arrived on site for rescue approximately 1 hour 20 minutes after the landing.
