It checked all out, so after we all had a short nap to ensure maximum efficiency we put it down in the Hudson River.

    *THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED IN REAL LIFE.* Sully himself hates this movie for how it portrayed the investigators. They are legally required to investigate every crashlanding everytime it happens. Sully made it clear that they were very respectful and understanding to the situation and cleared the whole thing up quickly. They just added this drama to make the movie longer.

    • @AlphaKiller-vx9sk
      @AlphaKiller-vx9sk 6 років тому +690

      Douglas Murphy Exactly, the real life investigators weren’t trying to get at Sully or get him into trouble. They were simply just trying to get the full story on why Sully did what he did. That way they could possibly formulate a plan for other pilots on what they might need to do in case they found themselves in the position Sully was in. In fact Sully was just doing his job, if a plane needed to make an emergency landing and the airport couldn’t be reached, pilots were instructed to ditch into the Hudson River. No one was seriously injured or killed during the landing which by all means would mean that Sully pulled off a well executed emergency landing into a body of water. Even if Sully could’ve made it to the airport without having to conduct a emergency landing, the investigators at least should try to understand why he made that call.

      I can no longer remember the details or even find this in Google, but decades ago a USAF pilot had a choice between orienting his plane for safe ejections of his crew (this was before the awesome ACESII seat that will do incredible stuff) but also put the bomber over a neighborhood. He chose to bank and go for a landing in a field. No survivors, but coldblooded heroism. That bomber would have killed dozens, maybe hundreds.

      What happened was this. After the event, experienced airline pilots were put in a simulator and set up in the same scenario. They were able to make a direct return and landing on the airport. However, they knew the event was going to happen and were mentally prepared for the procedures necessary to set the plane up and what the prime maneuvers would be. So, they had the ideal situation. Sculley, on the other hand, neither had foreknowledge of the event nor did he have the situation fully pre briefed before it happened. He had to establish what happened, determine the damage to the plane, start emergency procedures, communicate the situation to the tower, and determine the best path forward. All on the fly. The investigation was Monday morning quarterbacking at its best.

    The movie negatively portrays the investigators when in actual fact it's just standard procedure.
    But I love the point about "I eyeballed it", when you have no engines and you're deciding what to do you can't waste even a few minutes going back and forth with control over what action to take and whether it will work, pilots are indeed trained to have good judgement in this kind of situation and make that call on what action is most likely to save the most lives. The real life event is truly a testament to training and experience, not only from the pilots but also the cabin crew, and also demonstrates why it's important to pay attention to pre-flight safety videos and follow cabin crew instruction.

      Standard?
      There was a crazy amount of leaking which was trying to portray Sully as the culprit the media did not generally buy it but it still made its way in. This standard procedure when it involves a billion dollar industry. They try to reduce it down to one person so as to make it look like it is not a problem outside that experience.
      In big air accidents if the pilot is dead they normally try to find grey areas that can be blamed on the pilot. This is not done to damage the pilots name but to ensure that it is not focused on technical systems that have wider implications.
      The Hudson River landing was a grey area and was not a clear cut ruling. They only gave their support to Sully when it was realized that he public was on his side.

      In all fairness, it is more than just the loss of a jet. Water landing is extremely difficult and dangerous. When you watched the film, do you remember the part where the young control tower guy locked himself in a room after finding out Sully decided to land on the Hudson? The control tower guy thought they were all dead because how dangerous it is. These investigators (for the right reason, but the wrong attitude) thought Sully is too rash to land the plane on water -- which is very risky.
      This is why it was a *miracle* on the Hudson with no one person getting hurt.

    Even Sullenberger himself said that he ever got any issue or anything but admiration and amazement from every member of the FAA that investigated the water landing.
    Did the investigators go over every part of the crash? Of course. That's the job. But nobody questioned that the flight would have been a disaster had the crew made any other decision.

    Sully is a hero. It is pretty reasonable to figure you can not make it back to an Airport when you "eyeball it" and you realize that you are lower than the nearby skyscrapers. And that a relatively soft landing in the river is by far the best choice.

    First, I still have MILES of respect for Captain Sullivan. I would always aspire to be able to be as cool and clearminded in an emergency as he was. I know this interview was dramatized to make the movie more interesting, but the NTSB guys should have challenged all of his decisions, then told him, "Sully, you done good!" I don't think anyone questions Sully's judgment in this case. But the point that is MOST important, that I think gets overlooked, is that in an emergency, New Yorkers, once again, proved they are EXCELLENT human beings. From someone that has lived out west, I have watched New Yorkers do stunning things that surprise me every single time. When the chips are down, I think that the people of the City of New York have proven that they'll drop what they're doing and rush in to help. So, from someone that has watched from the other side of the country, Sully wasn't the only hero that day, the people of New York are, too.

This is a perfect example of a pilot quickly assessing his options and based on his experience, decided it was better to guarantee trashing a plane but saving everyone's lives, than MAYBE saving a plane but risking those same lives.

    It's certainly a reasonable question to ask in the abstract: Was it possible to return to La Guardia and land safely rather than attempt a highly risky landing in the Hudson? Conclusion reached: ""Although an emergency return to La Guardia Runway 13 was technically feasible from an aircraft flight performance point of view, the emergency landing on the Hudson seems the most appropriate decision," Airbus said in an assessment submitted to the board."
    The question was raised, did Sully spend too much time evaluating the situation until it was no longer possible to return to the airport? The answer was that what Sully did was reasonable given the circumstances.
    Imagine the public outrage if the commission had decided to punish Sully.

    Even though this movie paints the picture of those doing the investigation as the bad guys, the overall point is, it was just showing what Sully was thinking, and how he got out of the situation. Further more, I actually thought the dialogue in this movie from the Investigators didn't really look that bad. It was clearly showing it was their job. No outrageous yelling, and finger pointing. They displayed their side of how they thought he could have made it back to airport, they investigate every plane incident, this was nothing new. What was displayed here, looked understandable to me. Of course, Sully snapped back saying why he didn't want to risk it.
    A little drama doesn't hurt anyone. You do need to make a case that was drawn out over hours on end, into something watchable. Besides, if this movie did go full drama, investigators would have looked like vengeful psychopaths with anger issues, making a big deal out nothing. Sully in the movie would have been shown as an emotional wreck, sobbing with the wife as if he got the death sentence, and cue dramatic music. Everyone in this film looked rather soft tensed due to some uncertainty, but no high emotions. Reasonably short movie, got to the point. It could have easily been blown way out of proportion and run 2.5 hours, but they didn't.
