Post crash factors which effect survival are discussed in this paper. The two most dangerous hazards in an otherwise survivable accident are drowning and post crash fire, therefore rapid evacuation is crucial. Provisions for such evacuation are described. Case histories of airplane ditching and evacuation are presented and the attendant difficulties detailed.
