"Test engines using frozen bird carcasses" (36:30). That's wrong. The US has been doing bird strike tests for years; when the UK started trying it, every single engine failed. They finally figured out they needed to thaw the bird. 1) Frozen birds are too hard, they'll ruin any engine, and 2) frozen birds don't fly.
I love how at 12:26 the plane's just like, "It's okay guys! Planes can't get sick from dirty river water. I'm just going for a little swim. *Floats on down the river happily humming*"
i have never seen planes landing on runway 13 at laguardia. anyone know why? atc didnt offer 13 for them either... i know theres a rikers island bridge before runway 13 but i dont think thats an issue.
You should see how many people at my school want to wipe out all of the same kind of birds from the video. They say that they should stay in Canada and not go into the United States. According to them, the migrating geese are illegal immigrants that should stay out of the country. Also they hate how geese attack people even though the birds attacked them because they thought that those people were threatening them, not attacking them without a good reason.
i dont think it serve as a good "boat" if that time flying was a heavier aircraft like A330/A340.
i think the best way to land on river is like the way of ethiopian B767 - the wing hits the water first so that the fuselage can break apart and thus the passengers can get outside of the cabin and not been trapped.
Man that's really sad. We kill birds because they fly. Its just like going out and killing sharks because they attacked a swimmer. Its their natural environment. I am a commercial pilot and am aware of the problem with bird strikes but I honestly believe it is wrong to just go around killing animals because they get in their way of our daily lives as if their lives are worthless.
@HDaviator Well if ur in the pilot industry u should realize, you are going so fast you cant move out of the way if you dont see them in time so... its not really your fault if u beat a bird.
There is no such thing as a "Pilot Industry". And you are right, usually you can't maneuver the aircraft in time but that is not what I am saying. The government goes out of their way, to kill harmless birds which species didn't even have anything to do with the crash of the aircraft. It is just sad and should be criticized but nobody gives a damn. BTW, there is a difference between crashing into a bird in-flight and beating a bird. If you beat an animal, then that is a sick act.
@Skemmy2011 These pilots took there training for real and they didn't give up when the emergency happened because they had the skill they knew they did. most pilots would try there best to do what these pilots have.
At 33:10 I saw that video
