Thank you for trying to help me out here. I will think about your idea. Also thought that it is strange that airliners don't have some kind of retractable skies, so that in an emergency they can land on water. Is that just because it would be too expensive, or am I missing something else here? Is that idea too unrealistic? Why doesn't something like that exist? It surely would make an engine failure over the ocean a lot less dangerous.
Any conflicting ideas, please advice!

Cheers guys...
