Which of those images would have been taken first - the one with the windows not yet in the water (Lang’s), or the one with all the windows in the water (Puentes’)?

Did the front windows (between the wing and the door) go into the water (as shown in Puentes’ video) and then come back out of the water (as shown in Lang’s video)?

For Lang’s photo to have been taken after the people got out of the area, that is what would have had to happen.

Seems to me that would only happen if the tail was heavy and pulled up the front of the plane behind ithe wings. With this plane’s center of gravity, is that even possible?

You've got that backwards, don't you -- as you identified them in Post #3.

Clearly Puentes photo was taken first as it shows the plane is still sitting high in the water and people are still getting out of it. Lang's photo as you call it is second with the entrance and windonw subsequently submerged.
