## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING THE DESCENT, APPROX 30NM FROM AIRPORT, RT ENGINE SURGED, THEN LOST POWER COMPLETELY, NTS LIGHT ILLUMINATED. CONFIRMED WITH POWER LEVER (NO TORQUE MOVEMENT, NOR YAW). COMPLETED ENGINE FAILURE CHECKLIST, DECLARED EMERGENCY (TRUCKS WERE DISPATCHED).  LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  THE QUESTION OF THE ENGINE STOPPED IN FLIGHT OR WENT TO REDUCED POWER HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED.  ENGINE IS BEING REMOVED AND REPLACED FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION.
