Out of interest: there seems to be plenty of precedent to suggest that if an aircraft hits the water hard and fast it breaks up a lot and leaves smaller fragments of floating debris. Does anyone know what the situation would be likely to be if you managed to successfully ditch - or almost successfully ditch - a T7 at low speed? If it remained in one or two pieces, how long could you reasonably expect it to float? I know the safety cards in the seat pocket tend to show a lovely, stable floating aircraft buoyed by the escape slides with pax disembarking in an orderly fashion, but is that plausible?
