- Emergency landings can end in disaster or become aviation legend.
On January 15th, 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 and Captain Sully takes off from La Guarda airport in New York. Weather conditions are perfect for a smooth flight and the 155 passengers and crew expect nothing more than an uneventful two-hour journey to Charlotte in North Carolina. But within minutes of take-off, the plane has barely reached 3000 feet when it collides with a flock of Canadian geese and the plane's twin engines fail. The airbus begins to drop at 18 feet per second and Captain Sully has just seconds to react. After assessing his limited options, he decides the Hudson River is the only viable location to make an emergency landing. Against the odds, Captain Sully holds his nerve and executes a near text book landing on the Hudson, keeping the plane in one piece and everybody on board alive. He is heralded a national hero and the incident goes down in aviation history as a 'miracle'.
In August 2001, Air Transat Flight 236 is flying from Toronto to Portugal when a fuel leak causes the plane to lose all power while over the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Hundreds of miles from land, captain Robert Piche glides the plane towards the Azores archipelago praying they will make it in time. Just when the crew think they’ll have to ditch the craft in the ocean, they catch sight of Lajes Island and prepare to land without power. Nineteen minutes after running out of fuel, the plane touches down hard, bouncing several times but eventually comes to a stop just 700 meters from the threshold of the runway, blowing eight tyres in the process. Miraculously, everyone survives with minimal injuries and Captain Piche breaks records for the longest glide of a commercial craft in history.
In November 1996 Ethiopian Airlines Flight 961 is en route from Addis Ababa to Nairobi when three hijackers storm the cockpit claiming to have a bomb they will detonate if the crew doesn't satisfy their demands. The hijackers want to seek asylum in Australia and order the pilot to fly them there, having read in the flight magazine that with a full tank the plane’s maximum flying time is eleven hours. Although Captain Leul Abate explains they only have enough fuel on board for the planned flight to Nairobi, the hijackers don't believe it and make him keep flying. When the plane eventually runs out of fuel and loses engine power, the hijackers begin to fight the captain for the controls. Although Captain Abate tries to safely ditch the aircraft in shallow waters off the northern end of Grande Comoros island, the hijacker's disturbance means the left engine and wingtip strikes the water first. The engine then acts as a scoop and strikes a coral reef, slowing that side of the aircraft quickly and causing the Boeing 767 to suddenly tilt left. The rest of the aircraft then enters the water unevenly, causing it to break apart and tragically, 125 on board are fatally injured.

I could never sleep on an aeroplane, but if it came over the tannoy “This is your captain, Captain Sullenburger”, I’d sleep like a baby.
Take some shots before the plane leaves, take a nap and sober up when it lands :D best tip, pass by the duty free before entering the plane.
Pity he's retired.
@@evalevy2909 I know.
HHahaa...for sure!
@@samuelkundael3503 What type of shot is that?
Love you Sully Sir.
Life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you respond to it.
Best Wishes!
Air traffic controller is a hero as well. All the support he gave
IM SO PROUD TO BE FROM TERCEIRA-AZORES ISLANDS lages field Portuguese and USA airforce base, and i remember to see the aircraft stopped in the end of the runway from my house in the base, i never knew why till my dad came home at 5pm and told us, yes they were lucky because this runway in particular is very long, planes like the Galaxy and all Usaf military planes could land there.
LMFAO 😂 "The cabin smelled like burnt chicken." This made the story so much better. Sully is a hero.
It's funny how everything burning smells like chicken!
@@charliebarton9878 Well they did cook to a crisp. About a dozen or so Canadian geese in their engine. So it's not surprising the plane smelt like 'burnt chicken'. Most birds smell similar when over cooked.
Huge kudos to Captain Bob Pearson who heroically and safely brought in his completely powerless brand new B767 into an abandoned airport back in 1983 after running out of fuel during a mix-up with metric and imperial. The place was Gimli, Manitoba in Canada. Affectionately to this day it is known as the Gimli Glider and at least one movie was made portraying the event. I am really sending out a huge shout to Capt. Pearson for a few reasons, one because of the incredible outcome and superior airmanship and second I was a young new pilot who also flew with Bob Pearson as my captain a few years before and knew I was with the very best. Such achievements as you have see here are possible.
For those confused about how the fly-by-wire Airbuses are able to be controlled without engine power or APU power: Airbus aircraft have a “relatively” small propeller, more like a windmill at a wind farm/power plant, that will extend from the underside of the aircraft automatically when the computers detect conditions indicating that there will be no other means of electricity production. This propeller generates enough power to operate all control surfaces, and most things in the cockpit, including radios, vital instruments, and the lighting required to see switches and read checklists in nighttime conditions.
Sully has said that his own experience is an argument to go back to sourcing pilots from the military rather than flight schools. His military flight training is what he credits with his ability to calmly handle the situation.
SULLY HAD prior gliding experience too. It contributed to success. People should respect gliding practices more. It may save your life.
My father was in the Air Force and my mom only flew on the one airline at our place that sourced from the Air Force. I see why...
Bullshit, there is nothing special that is covered in military flight training that is not covered in flight school, he made a good decision, good airspeed and pitch control, calm and decisive under pressure. Dont overhype military pilots as if they are from mars
@@brianmashoko But that is the truth. In Military, they are trained to face the calmness in CASES OF TROUBLES OR ENEMIES Missile attacks. That will contribute to the pilot's APPROACH in case of EMERGENCY of the PASSENGER'S PLANE. It will really have a BIG DIFFERENCE.
@@KnowledgeIsPower773
P
Capt Sully was a very experienced pilot in the those emergency situations that’s what you need
Sully's plane is actually now a Museum piece.
The SULLY airplane flight must have been the funnest rollercoaster of your life thank God everyone survived 😮
Captn sully had a best decision ever to land it in hudson
Taking absolutely nothing away from this superb captain's abilities, their have been many emergency landings much like this one which may have had equally dire consequences. This is just another reason to salute the aviation professionals who safely get us to our destinations and families on time, and safe. There are so many people to thank, every single day planes fly our skies, heroes all.
Tears of achievement and heroism in my eyes after seeing these miracle acts of bravery in landing and ditching the aircraft plus saving most of the lives possible. Very well confirmed reenactment and editing by the film directors good job!!!!
My experience as a flight attendant taught me two things about pilots : 1. The best are ex-military ( hands-down, no contest ), and the best military pilots are ex-Navy…They are trained to land on the decks of ships in all weather….and 2) AGE matters. There is no substitute for experience, and of the five “miracle landings,” where the pilot managed to safely land a crippled aircraft, four of those five pilots were age 60 or over (near the FAAs mandatory retirement age)….
If we truly value “safety” over economics, hiring priority should be given to ex-service members….and the mandatory retirement age (which hasn’t changed in over 50 years-despite the fact that today’s “over 60s” are in much better health than their predecessors-should be raised to 70 ( as long as the annual flight physical is passed )
There is Sully’s book about the event but there is also a book called “Fly by Wire” that talks about the landing from a different perspective. It’s well worth a read.
There is also another Sully, Captain Sullivan. Plus a south American pilot with one eye who brought his stricken plane down on a levy, thus saving many lives
Yes, TACA TACA !!! 😊
TACA 110, was it? I remembered seeing an episode with him in it and I heard how he had ONE EYE and yet still qualified to fly again. And then they land SAFELY on a levee! It was in such good shape that they eventually had test pilots simply fly it back OFF of the levee and fly it to maintenance. After repairing the engines first or something...I forget. They did fly it back off, though. All with this one-eyed pilot; he is truly an amazing man.
Captain Carlos Dardano! He retired just month. A real mensch!
@@EShirakoOne eye doesn't disqualify you from driving either. The other eye compensates very well with the loss over time. The only thing is that your peripheral vision is almost gone on the side of the lost eye, you need to turn your head more or use blindspot mirrors.
@@AccidentallyOnPurpose Yeah, but when driving, unless you drive a double-decker Greyhound or a school bus, you rarely have 100+ people all riding on your ability! It makes sense for driving, but I'm still impressed by him being able to 'one eye' a career where they can't even consider me for a commercial pilot license because I take Adderall which has an 0.05% chance of 'sometimes you just die in any given year that you are taking it'. I could change meds if there were another one that worked for me, and if it's a 'no chance of just dropping dead without warning' medication I could try to get a commercial license, but...I still think him keeping his commercial license with only one eye as a PILOT takes a lot of effort and skill! Maybe I'm wrong, but either way, I'd let that man fly me anywhere! He was such a calm badass.
Hero seems inadequate. A pure and simple act of genius by a wonderful guy who against all the odds averted a disaster. Way to go Sully! :)
Captain Sully has nerves of steel and he's the ultimate professional. The co pilot is also amazing. Respect to these pros. Even the flight attendants are excelent pros. Everyone involved did an excellent job in such emergency.
Balls of steel.
What a frikkin’ HERO!!! I never get tired of seeing this
Thank you for this really meticulously detailed documentary version of 1549 landing in the Hudson in 2009. Truly 100 out of 100.
yes indeed, thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍
Mentor pilot gives excellent analysis
Captain Sully the legend.
Pilots and air traffic controllers are just pure perfection at everything they do most of the time. It’s amazing.
What a way of expressing the story by another stories
Captain Sulley & his crew are in my top five commercial aviators who have saved their passengers & themselves against overwhelming odds. I am a pilot, only PPL, but know how important it is to be able to keep visiting, navigating & making very quick decisions when faced with an emergency in the air.
11:45 another plane that landed without engines was the Gimli Glider.
Also, if you're gonna hijack a plane, at least TRY not to be so stupid that you don't understand the concept of "not enough fuel." At least all the hijackers died. No loss.
But how awful that all those other people died. The captain was a hero and did his absolute best considering what he was facing.
Legendary
By the grace of God and the flying skill of Captain Sully and everybody was able to survive.
ברוך השם! שהחיינו, וקיימנו והגיענו ליום הזה!!! יופי!
What a hero indeed
Let's not forget Alastair Atchinson, who managed to land a plane solo with the windscreen blown out and his captain halfway out of the open windscreen.
Captain Sully is One of the best Aviation Officers. Having great experience and decisions maker.
Love you sir.
You haven't heard of Captain Dordano,..
17:55 I like the way the flight attendant calmed the passengers. 🤦
It's 100% dramatised.
Was looking for this comment
😂😂😂
Sully you are the boss you are the man amazing results under extremely hard situation you made history and saved lives legend
Captain sully is definitely a hero
A true hero!
I knew a gentleman who lived in Reno and had a Piper Cub. One day he had flown the short hop down to Carson City to have coffee with a friend and was returning to Reno. He was focusing on staying level and at the correct altitude, glancing down at the highway he was using for navigation periodically as he made his way back to the north against a stiff headwind. He glanced down to see a concrete plant on said highway passing beneath him telling him he was about halfway home. A minute later he looked down again to see the same plant passing him in the opposite direction. His Cub could muster about 85 mph at full throttle. Headwind had increased to 100mph. He went back to Carson City.
Wow two great pilots and crew
Captain Sully 👏🏾
Thank god that Air Transat stewardess remained really calm and reassuring 🤣
And before the heroics of Sully and Robert Piche, there was Bob Pearson and the Gimli Glider.
@@NoOne12703 that's Garuda Indonesia Flight 421
And TACA flight 110 ❤
👏👏👏
There have been several around the world, but NY is the center of the universe. 😊
It is very sad that they think that ...could sully have landed on airport... He has done a great job what else do u want
It was a really poorly run sim from the investigators. It takes like 20-30 seconds for engines to spool back. And by then it was like 50/50. Which you dont fly over new york with a 50/50.
Sims have 100k scenarios real life has 100 billion variables added . Cpt Sully was like an angel sent to save those peoples lives.
Cockpit Discipline, Calmness, Experience, Presence of mind &Trust. It is very rare to find pilots with these qualities. But everyone can achieve this with proper training and self confidence.
Extraordinary Skills by all to save lives, God Bless the Crew,God Bless the Air Traffic Controller ...he was totally professional in his responsibilities...
If you liked this watch 'What These Pilots did was Amazing! | British Airways flight 9' it's Captain Moody and amazing
Yes!!! I watched it several times and it is so amazing!
34:29 That is literally one of the most extraordinary and horrifying things ive ever seen caught on camera. Incredibly lucky that some survived.
ijUstcalled.
I think the second plane hitting the World Trade Center is up there. So many people suffered terribly and were killed that day.
@@Soffity can't argue that. Especially when i watched it live and then we all had to watch it on loop all day on the news.
Remain calm. It is as easy as that.
Regards from Barcelona.Spain.Europe
Verse 1:
On a cold January day
In the skies above New York City
A plane took off from LaGuardia
Bound for Charlotte, but not meant to be
Chorus:
Captain Sully, oh what a man
With nerves of steel and a steady hand
He faced the challenge and didn't flinch
And brought that plane down on the river's brink
Verse 2:
A flock of geese flew into their path
And left them with no engines to fly
But Sully knew just what to do
And brought that plane down from the sky
Chorus:
Captain Sully, oh what a man
With nerves of steel and a steady hand
He faced the challenge and didn't flinch
And brought that plane down on the river's brink
Bridge:
The passengers were scared and confused
But Sully kept his cool
He calmly gave the orders
And everyone got off that plane, safe and sound
Chorus:
Captain Sully, oh what a man
With nerves of steel and a steady hand
He faced the challenge and didn't flinch
And brought that plane down on the river's brink
Outro:
A hero in every sense of the word
Captain Sully, we thank you
For your bravery and your skill
And for bringing us all home that day.
YES!
😂

Love capt Sully great job saving everyone on board
Thanks for episode 4, waiting for episode 5 now. Good quality work👍🏻👍🏻
I feel sorry for the captain of Ethiopia Airlines, for not having everyone surviving and having seen people have died.
Plz more of these
Great job done ❤❤
This is SOOO MUCH BETTER than Mayday shows. Keep it up! 👏👍
Far better the graphics top notch
@@abumusa5913 Warnings aren’t realistic though. They used the Airbus stall warning on the 767 and they used a 737 cockpit for the 767
Also flight attendant didn't give instructions on 17:55 just yelled causing panic
I respect you captain Sully 🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️🧑✈️
Lay down sully...
Job very well done sir...
Salute to Captain Sully...
That crew did the impossible, I don't think I'll ever be able to see something about this flight and not watch it.
Knowing how badly it could have happened is terrifying. Knowing they all walked away is exhilarating.
Hero pilot
Most of the fatalities in the ditching were from inflating their life jackets too soon and being unable to get out the windows.
Pilotos maravilhosos
Esperientes
Tds.sobreviveram
Inacreditável
Thank You H.& C.🖤
best wishes to airman.
Amazing story x ♥️
Fact of it is the capt Picheard has a heavy phrench accent and probably typical phrench thinking, definitely affecting his disregard of gages and the way he continued on with the decreasing fuel store.
Captain Piche is Canadian actually.
@@billijomaynard8924 Yes. French Canadian
Imagine if they had this music soundtrack playing in the cockpit while all this going on 😂
Best selling all save landings MASHALLAH ❤
So great!!👍
Funniest accents ever in a bad way, but it’s still good.
Unbelievable how they both pilot landing
Legendary
That poor ATC could have killed himself during those 45mins. He was supposed to be one of the first people to know how the event ended up unfolding. But if you're just an employee, you're expendable so no one cares
These are the miracles people tend to ignore. Glory be to God
Your non existent skylord had NOTHING to do with it!
It's amazing how the death of the birds doesn't seem to matter to anyone.
Don’t forget to take your medication
No, I thought about them.
This is one of the strangest comments I’ve ever read.
Outstanding! 👌
It was all good but the documentary made it too dramatical.....that was a very calm crush .and the authorities made the evacuation ready even before the plane landing ........10 minutes of a crush .the documentary turned it into one hour talking for telespectators ......
What the hell are you trying to say with your second grade grammar?
Note to self: Don’t wear a t-shirt for a major interview.
Central Park? You got to be kidding me!
I’m a private pilot, also a qualified Professional Semi Truck Driver. So I’m aware that in emergency situations the person in charge of the vehicle (Car, Plane, Truck, of other) has to make decisions very quickly and sometimes they make the right decision sometimes not but the people have to make critical decisions in an instant so we can evaluate them after the incident but if you’re not there it’s very arrogant to assume you wound have done differently. If you had been there you might have made a better decision,the same decision, of a worse decision. Hindsight is not fair to the person who was making those decisions in a moment of crisis and seconds or less to decide.
Now thats airmenship sully
That's the reason y I don't go in airplane 😅😰
16:03. Good actress. That look lol
those sully actors were maybe not meant for that role
The stewardess was very nervous and agitated, incorrect behavior, she should be calm and convey calm and not chaos to the passengers, this was when she asked the passengers to put on the vest.
Thank GOD you have 2nd life.
For bird strike protection why don't the engine covered with metal net or keeping the double engine two reserve to stand by?
Due to ice Built in winter they tested it. Thats why they have no screen
Air attendant?😂😂😂😂😂 is that what flight attendants are called now. Some of these are so funny
Did the creators of this show steal the format from Mayday or are they the same creators for both shows? I looked it up and it said they're the same shows, just different names depending on the country it airs in, but they're not the same. Different actors and difference scenes. Just same format.
Can u imagine dying in a plane crash after you told god take me???😢😢😢
I have a headache from jumping around to 1000 different stories... is this for real.???
Nodody:
Producer: lets put every plane crash ever in this episode...
What has happened to episode 3?
We'll going off by the movie they had 208 seconds
*This fifty minute documentary will alter you if you put yourself in the seats of any of the people concerned. You will only find out if you watch and interpret the message therein.*
Actually the the engine number one has fuel
Tom Hanks were sully movie Tom hanks as Chesley Sullenberger real pilot
The hijacker Identity of ET961 Is never known.
I hadn't heard that, but it is quite plausible, due to demographic record keeping in Africa being hit or miss.
Now how did they no it was 7 bird's that hit the engines?
17:56 ?? or for dramatic purposes only?
Yea y'all telling his story and making it appear that y'all were in agreement and accommodating to his perl but we all know thru his own words u were not. It was under his own strength, God and knowledge everyone made it.
One question, first incident, if they had no fuel no power, how did they get the wheels out to land on?
All modern aircraft have a “manual release” lever to extend the landing gear ( at least, all of the Boeing & McDonnell Douglass aircraft I worked did-I’m assuming it’s mandatory for all, as incomplete extension of landing gear happens more often than you think )….
I believe it operates on stored power ( like a battery )….Main point being that it’s designed to extend the gear even in the event of cabin electrical failure ( such as when a lightening strike to the aircraft shorts the electrical system )….
There is a small windmill that comes on automatically when the engines fail that is backup power
