While I would congratulate these two brilliant pilots who did all they could as pilots, they both and their passengers would have died if the plane did not have all that buoyancy in the front cabin where according the Jeff Skiles," The water came cascading over the windscreen and it looked as if the plane was nosing down to the bottom and then it stopped and lifted the front up to float." I wish they would appreciate the contribution of the engineers who made that structure which held when that upward torque due to the buoyancy at the front opposed the torque generated by the drag of the engines as they entered the water with caused the nose to dive down till the buoyancy took over. There were many equally capable pilots who landed on the water and came in the water as good as these two pilots did, but DID NOT HAVE THAT BUOYANCY AT THE FRONT, and they flipped over and died. Another equally ode to engineers should be given by the pilots and passengers of the Hawaii Boeing 737 who lost the top of the cabin and survived because the engineering front structure held due to the good design of engineers. Again these pilots are great, but I wish they would thank the engineers who saved their lives because of the plane designs they incorporated in what they fly on. Pilots tend to forget the skills of engineers, and it should never be, as the skills of engineers is looking after pilots all the time on every flight be it a normal flight or a crash landing. Pilots are paid to save their lives and they can do it if they learn to operate, but not necessarily comprehend the complex working of all the equipment designed for them by engineers. As Jeff Skiles said, " he should know how to OPERATE all that at his disposal all supplied by engineers" Many people would feel better if they only acknowledge to whom they should be grateful for saving their lives. It is all hidden in the engineering structure of planes when they fly and crash.
Your knowledge of engineering matters have all the hallmarks of authenticity. It is a great pity that the engineers involved in the ingenious design of this plane do not get proportionate recognition. Can you cite their names?
No he can't because, without disrespect to aeronautical engineers, there was nothing unusual about the design of this plane. The safe landing was entirely due to the skill and judgement of the pilots.
Oh...whatever. Try as you might want to deflect the credit to who saved everyone's lives that day, I still know that if it weren't for these two men, it wouldn't have mattered diddly squat who the engineers were. Your post is idiotic in that it seems like you are almost inferring that the plane itself saved the day.
I spent many years flying in various military helo's all over the world and mostly in countries who don't want them there. I've been involved in two "incidents" one of which killed four of my friends. The other, all survived relatively unhurt. BOTH were almost as equally traumatic on a personal level. Being able to compartmentalize the actual crash and then survival was critical...and has been for years.
As a 911 dispatcher, I totally understand the feeling. Being heralded for doing the job the taxpayers pay me to do just is not something I feel comfortable with. Of course, I was raised not to toot my own horn, so I have never felt comfortable in the limelight.
That was the one minor imperfection in their performance but structural damage and the inadvertent opening of a flooded hatch at the rear of the plane made it moot.
@@KJ6EAD In documentary it was mentioned the "ditch" switch was on third page of Quick Reference Handbook (QRH) for dual engine failure. Because that guide was for when airplane is way higher and has time, meanwhile they only had few minutes and only did like 2 or 1 and a half page. So they did everything by the book and more. Wouldn't call that imperfection in their performance. They never got simulations on water landing only had one theoretical class talk and he made that work.
@@KJ6EAD No I just wanted to say that they didn't do that because they didn't have time to go through everything. Also I read somewhere that turing it on wouldn't have been great idea as it would have made the plane sink faster.
It wouldnt have done any good, possibly harm tho. The breach in the tail would have caused water to enter only thru the tail. Possibly raising the nose or pulling the tail down more rapidly, ultimately breaking the fuselage in half or sinking the plane almost immediately

Their mustaches played a big part in the landing.
Caught the wind, slowed their desceny
Both are serious human beings who deserve to have everything starting from mustaches, ending 155 saved lifes
LepuooL Nydazx TY for using the correct word “their”. 😊
As we know, when a person is under the influence of a mustache, they often tend to make different decisions...
Unfortunately C.B.Sullenburger 111 has shaved said moustache off, at the time of me writing this. Wanting to break with the past I suspect.
They really did a phenomenal job casting the right actors to portray these men in Sully.
The right pilots were behind "the wheel" on this accident.. 40000 combined flight hours!
So glad you've given credit over and over to the flight attendants. The public treats them so terribly, and they are incredible professionals.
Not much these days……

Reporter: "So I heard ya'll crashed a plane in the Hudson".
Jeff: "Actually it was him".
Funny to see that even there, Sully is sitting on the captain's side and Jeff is on the first officer's side!
I love pilots! I want to become one because I really love planes and... you guys, meaning all of the pilots, inspire me.
Hey, You working to be one rn?
Update?
It's just a passion that I have.
@@TheSoftballstar1261 it’s been 7 years we want to know if you’re a pilot yet!

just watched the movie . I liked it
I want to see it!
bless them!
The Monday morning quarterbacking had to be off the charts.

No he can't because, without disrespect to aeronautical engineers, there was nothing unusual about the design of this plane. The safe landing was entirely due to the skill and judgement of the pilots.
And the fact that the engineer's skills made that structure where it held together to make that buoyancy up front to lift its nose up.
Paul Donovan yes you’re right, I back you up 💯 👍🏼 pilot skill is 👍🏼

I dont understand anything they says (I not know english), but they great guys

The anniversary
진심 존경하는 분
I rly lk up 2 these guys =)

hey sully I have the dvd of that flight you did a great job landing on the Hudson
Yes the mustaches were there power source.
Taking off is optional..landing is mandatory.
They forgot to turn on Ditch switch
That was the one minor imperfection in their performance but structural damage and the inadvertent opening of a flooded hatch at the rear of the plane made it moot.

@@dottieniu7930 Your premise that completion of a checklist equals perfection is false and it's not at all what I mean by perfect.

Flip phones ha ha ha
"some switch you should have switched" yeah like the ditch swith in the cockpit that prevents the water intake incase of an accident like this. xD
That would have done no good
It wouldnt have done any good, possibly harm tho. The breach in the tail would have caused water to enter only thru the tail. Possibly raising the nose or pulling the tail down more rapidly, ultimately breaking the fuselage in half or sinking the plane almost immediately
@@johnbenesh9663 Not to mention the door the passenger opened. A switch won't magically fix that.
You mean the ditch switch that’s on page 3 of the quick reference list that the crew only had time to look at 1 1/2 pages of
The only thing you could have done better is walk on water. Or maybe you guys did. I think so. 🤔
