I wasn't going to rise to this.
OK, so casualties (even fatalities) are very likely in an off airfield landing (Nimrod in the Moray Forth, BTW - a ditching in a Comet where no-one died).
But show me ONE loss of control/departure/spin/ground impact where there were any survivors at all.
And let's not get anal and pedantic about 'stuffing the nose down' - you know what I meant.
