I didn't say that water landings in general are not possible (though they are difficult even under ideal conditions). I said that landing in the open ocean is not really something that has been done successfully in a modern airliner. The closest example I could find in the list you link was the following. But it ditched a few miles from the coast and had much smaller engines than a typical modern passenger airliner. Also, it was a cargo flight with only the pilots on board, and the captain was seriously injured. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transair_Flight_810 |
