[QUOTE="0311, post: 2442455, member: 26943"] A fisherman said he saw it flying low over the water. This suggests a loss of power, and possibly a controlled ditching of the aircraft. But I suspect once the water hit the air intakes on those massive jet engines, the wings would shear off, and everything would sink, maybe pretty much intact. If the water isn't real deep, the hull might not implode, and a debris field may not escape to the surface. Edit: But jet fuel would escape to the surface, and depending on surface turbulence leave a slick. [/QUOTE]
