For those currently flying over the brine and those who wish to, a good piece of survival equipment is a facemask and snorkel. Chances of survival are increased by keeping fuel/oil from eyes as well as spray and glass reflects light in day time as well as being able to see inside aircraft should it float as some in fact do. What do you think your chances of survival are with fuel/oil in the eyes?
Anyhow, some ferry pilots do this and are alive today as a result.
