Just a silly question.
The NTSB want to look at the engines to see the damage in regard to it being a birdstrike on each of them. That's fair enough, but would there have been any (more) damage to the engines due to the ditching? I mean, if you hit water at that sort of speed something would surely break so how would the NTSB figure out if both engines had been "goosed" when the pressure of the water has had to have broken something and also would have washed the blood and guts out?
(I'm not doubting it was a double birdstrike, I just can't figure out what the NTSB is talking about, apart from it being the usual beaurocrat talk)
