EGAC_Ramper mentioned the video taped water landing (crashing) of the Ethiopian 767.

The wing-mounted engines would be my biggest cause for concern as well. I would think it would be almost impossible to put it down and keep it straight in the water.

A rear-engined three holer I would think would have the best chance of survival for a water landing.
