Well, any airliner ditching is a bit of a disaster, even if no one dies.

There was a Boeing Stratocruiser which went down in the Pacific many


Albeit quite a bit smaller and a prop plane, but still a pretty
sizeable old bird, there was the Boeing Stratoliner 'Clipper Flying
Cloud' that ditched in Seattle last year and was re-restored in time
to fly to Oshkosh this year.
