There are some flying experts who say Sully blew it. He had time to land at a nearby airport and didn’t act until it was too late. He did make a nice water landing and everyone survived. In this case the heroic pilots are dead.
Sully still had flight controls. It also reminds me of the Gimli Glider, but in both instances, the pilots had flight controls.
After 8 years of the disastrous Bush Presidency, this event, happening on the heals of the Obama victory euphoria, lifted the nation’s spirits - this is the narrative I remember hearing on all channels.
No NOT the easy landing on the Hudson with FULL control over the airplane, but The Miracle at Sioux City Iowa where the same failure of flight controls occurred.
“pilots and crew are hailed as heroes”
ABSOLUTELY HEREOS! SAVED 40 some lives.
