Sully landed the plane on the river he didnt jump in and fish people out
How can you compare a helliflopper to a large air carrier?
If both crashes had happened on land surrounded by hills or buildings, the heliflopper pilot would have been the hero and you would have, in your ignorance of aircraft, ridiculed Sully.
However I am critical of both the operator, not the pilot, of the flopper and the NY Port Authority for not requiring floats.
With most of these floppers operating over or in sight of the river, it is stupid not to make available to them the longest emergency landing strip in the entire state.
