Even rotary can have it's problems too. A friend of mine was landing a non float equipped helicopter on the land close to the waters edge in glassy conditions and flew it into the water on approach. I remember him telling me he thought all was okay until the next thing he was inverted in the water and sinking fast.Luckily no fatalities, apart from the aircraft.
I just posted this a reminder to the rotary guys.
