Irritating

The story says "single engine" airplane. Um, no.

Looks like his gear is up. Belly landing on grass makes more sense.

I think he had a better chance surfing in on water and auguring in on land. It was a good landing, it seems to me. He had the other engine on the back to use as a boat propeller, too. Only, it sank too fast to use it.

Salt water is not a good thing for airplanes.

Where he was, there isn't any grass within probably 5-6 miles of the airport. It's all volcanic rock.

Easy to have an opinion when your butt isn't in the seat.
