If you both had planned to ditch the plane in a lake wouldnt you have practiced many times what would have been required to get out of the plane quickly???

Sure... we had planned and talked and talked and talked about it but nothing prepares you for the plane sinking in 15-20 seconds. The ground school instructor told us the plane would float for 15-20 MINUTES, but that is NOT what happened.

There is much more about it in the book that Dateline left out. They are a Crime Mystery program so they tend to skew the story somewhat... I don't. I think you will be surprised about the facts and details that they omitted to make their "mystery" stay a mystery.
