Looks like everyone got off ok. Happy that apparently no one was killed. Now, why not get a line on the plane and start towing it to shallower water. Great way to preserve things for the investigation.

A miracle!

What a decision that pilot made. I know they practice ditching in simulators, but how many have actually made a water landing in a jet? And with such a good outcome?

Thank God for the skill of the crew.
