D'Arcy chose the Hudson River as the safest emergency landing option. The river was filled with ice and the water was freezing. There wasn't a road with no cars on it somewhere?

The problem with roads, especially at night, is power lines.
The Hudson flying is great fun, I’ve done “The Corridor” many times over the years. Fly down the Hudson from GWB to Verrazano at about 1000 feet.

There wasn't a road with no cars on it somewhere? And no trees overhanging, and no telephone poles, and no wires, and no twists or bends in the road…along the banks of the Hudson in New York State? Not likely. But you do have the right handle.

Obviously not. How many flight hours do you have?
