I wonder how many terrestrial planes ever landed on water leaving at least one survivor.

There is that one case that made the news worldwide for months because of how hard it is... and I never heard about any other one.

Oh, cool. If I counted that right, there has been 4 unplanned landings by large planes, and a bit more than that of planed landings. But smaller (and slower) planes do that all the time.

The part about smaller planes makes a lot of sense.
