These guys did well. Ex Fleet Air Arm pilots ditch their Cessna just off the Scilly Isles. Story:

Heard about this on the radio, didn't know they were ex-FAA

Glad the outcome was one of the good ones.

All the best to these fine gentlemen. Damn glad it turned out the way it did.

All of us who aviate today can take off our hats to these wily veterans; we stand here on the shoulders of giants, and these are three of the tallest.

Respect:ok:

Cessna 172 isnt the best of boats in which to exit,ditched next to the only boat in the area, and I assume that the aircraft was wings level at water level, great skill and judgement by these gentlemen, but how did they get away with it ?

The Great Escape or wot! Would make for good 999 Micheal Burke viewing.
