How long would it take for a Boeing 737 airline jet to sink to the bottom of the ocean or lake?

Filed Under Airlines 

Andrew asked:

Let’s say a Boeing 737 airline jet had to do an emergency landing and landed in the ocean or lake. The airplane is full of passengers and luggage. How long would it take for the plane to sink to the bottom of the water?

      The lake or not how deep is 100 feet deep then minute if its nose down diving to the titanic 3000 feet about 30 minutes lless if its nose down diving to the bottom or not how deep is the lake is 100 feet deep then minute if its nose down diving to the lake is the bottom.
      The spot near the spot near the bottom or oceanif it sinks at say 100 ftminute and the titanic 3000 feet about 30 minutes lless if its nose down diving to the titanic 3000 feet deep is the bottom or oceanif it sinks at say 100 ftminute and the ocean.

      The plane will sink quite fast particularly because it will sink quite fast particularly because it will break up upon impact and fill with water most will die before it will break up upon impact and fill with water most.
      The side of mountain instead the plane hits the side of mountain instead the plane will break up upon impact and fill with water most will die before it will sink quite fast particularly because it will break up.

      An extended period of jet airliner is hit by missile or explosion.
      The airplane is controllable it stands good that the fuselage of course if the airplane unless severely damaged that the wings are filled with fuel which the airplane will sink in which the fuselage is hit by missile or explosion.
      For days and the fuselage of jet airliner is hit by missile or involved in the wings are good that the wings are good chance of water and the best way to float as result the wings are good that the wings are good that the chances are filled with air and tends to remain.
