Honestly it makes me feel safer in planes.
To know that the pilots and crew can safetly handle a situation like this.
The key to this was that they landed the plan level to the water.
And props to the flight attendents for keeping the passengers so calm.

Something happens to prevent water from entering the fuselage. So since the plane isnt filling up with water maybe thats why it hasnt sunk.
- sorry I should have paid more attention
Luggage compartment is sealed which helped to keep it afloat for a while but....
The plane did sink at about the 1 1/2 hr mark after it hit...

I did just see that they had it partially out of the water and tied to a dock so I guess they got it up...
