That's the obvious action for an "hidroavión", but that's what makes the "acuatizaje" a piece of news.

Well, once I listened to something similar to "the avión pudo amerizar en el mar y se salvaron todos los pasajeros". It couldn't land on the ground, it was an emegency landing.

Es cierto que se usa amerizar. Lo que intentaba decir es que la RAE no pone que pueda ser cualquier tipo de aeronave sino específicamente un hidroavión. Tecnicismos, nada más.

Supongo que es porque el hidroavión es el que está preparado, digo yo.

Yes, you could use aterrizar figuratively but not the others (amerizar, amarar or acuatizar)
eg La pelota voló a través de la ventana y aterrizo sobre el regazo de la Sra. Jones que, en ese momento, estaba leyendo el periódico tranquilamente en su salón.
