Narrative:

Engines #1 and #2 on a four engine heavy transport flamed out on landing rollout due to unknown causes. Callback conversation with reporter revealed following information. Reporter has heard of this happening before but not able to ascertain if the same aircraft and not sure if same two engines. In this case they rolled out made a 90 degree right turn followed by a 90 degree left turn onto parallel taxiway and when put power up to taxi discovered two had spun down. Seemed like when went to ground idle from flight idle after landing just kept right on spinning down. They had used light reversing because of light snow on ground. Next day check airman under same conditions lost one engine but had used heavy reversing. Did not know if the one inch of light snow on ground could have been ingested by reversing and caused flameout.
