Just as a point of reference, I managed a basic motion stabilization of the video of the 767 ditching off the Comoros Islands in the early 90's. This is what happens when a 767 is set down softly into medium surf. Port wing/engine ripped away cleanly and the resulting roll over to the now wingless side forces the starboard wing to break just outboard of the engine pylon. The sailboat image posted earlier of an average day in the waters where MH370 is being searched would probably end much worse than this.
