FlightGear | How to Ditch a Plane (Water Landing)

In this FlightGear how-to, I show you how to ditch a plane (land it in the water). It's a very basic maneuver once you get the hang of it.

Doesn't flightgear detect it as a 'crash'?

@jihy99 Yeah, they haven't made any special animations for it yet.

it isn't a water landing...if you're a real pilot, the plane will sink bcoz it isn't the correct degree.....you should head the nose up to about 11 degrees. Dont try to land more than 15 degree, it will break up to pieces when hit the water...
