Quotes > One Engine or Two?

Supposedly this was caused when one engine failed and the pilots were unable to hold altitude so decided to land in the lake rather than on top of some houses. If true, this is consistent with the old pilot adage about twin-engine planes that "the second engine carries you to the scene of the accident".
