When I visited Brussels in 1965 the Cessna distribution center had a collection of mangled airframes that had come to grief during sea transportation. The solution was to air ferry with long range fuel tanks and this method proved 100% reliable. An example is this Skylane which arrived at EBBR with ferry registration N71310 taped on and here awaits pick-up by its new Swedish owner. Still active in 2020.
