Cpt. Sullenberger's Other Option

[HJV333]

No engines, no power = put her down in the closest and safest place. Hudson was that. Anyone suggesting that he could've made a safe landing at an airport should never fly as a PIC.

Landing on the road? You are kidding right? Any number of things could've gone wrong that would've included cars, buildings, hundreds of other people.

[cjracer1000]

@HJV333 the NTSB report said that if they turned around immediately, they very well could have made it back to the airport.

[SkateBWI]

fully loaded, no power, very low and slow, you don't turn around. I wouldn't have either. Even if I knew we we lose 50% of the people.

[elparcero1220]

Yeah, Ure gonna land on the West Side Highway @ Rush Hour... GOOD LUCK WITH THAT....

[MyPilot747]

i think he still had enough speed and altitude to land at tetebro

[cjracer1000]

@MyPilot747 The FAA said, that if he turned around as soon as they lost their engines, they could've made it back to LGA!

[psyjpg]

@cjracer1000 exactly. And no one would have gotten wet. Why not just turn the plane around and head back the way they came?

[cjracer1000]

@psyjpg IIRC, the NTSB report says that hey could've made it back to the airport had they immediately turned the airplane around.

[psyjpg]

@cjracer1000 Instead they decided to ruin a perfectly good airplane. 

[psyjpg]

@cjracer1000 why did he wait so long to turn it around? Ruined a perfectly good plane.

[cjracer1000]

@psyjpg lol, they wanted to assess the situation I guess.

[psyjpg]

@cjracer1000 What's there to assess? They hit some birds and both engines are flamed out. It takes one second to turn that thing around and land at the same place he started. LGA. Instead he lands the plane in the water where everyone get wet, the plane engines get submerged and flooded, and the carpeting and upholstery all needs to be replaced. Bad move.

[Cherimoya9]

@psyjpg

He made a comment at take-off about how pretty the Hudson looked. Maybe he couldn't take his mind off it.

[psyjpg]

@Cherimoya9 Exactly. What kind of hero thinks about the Hudson?

[Police5861]

Really land on a fucking beach do u know how much of a crowd might have formed just seeing a plane fly low above the Hudson i think he made the best choice he could have made

[NikySportsPromotion]

that would work at 1am when theres no traffic. at the time the aircraft went down it would be a bad idea and a violation of countless FAA regs.

[cjracer1000]

@NikySportsPromotion LOL, I doubt it would even work at 1:00 AM in New York!

[BLAZETANGO]

@NikySportsPromotion though it is indeed a bad idea. FYI when is an emergency you can violate as many regulations as possible to put that plane down safely.

[cjracer1000]

@BLAZETANGO If it happened somewhere else, it probably would've happened something like this! Thanks for the comment!

[colinbcolby]

@NikySportsPromotion lol u phag. Have you ever piloted anything? You know squat. Nobody died, but if the pilots used your retarded idea people would have [died]. Idiot.

[NikySportsPromotion]

@colinbcolby Whats my retarded idea? I believe my comment pointed out that this would not work. I would do exactly as Sully did. And just to answer your other question, yes I have ever piloted anything, got my certificate today thank you very much

[cjracer1000]

@NikySportsPromotion Congratulations! Did you get your PPL, Student, or Recreational?

[NikySportsPromotion]

@cjracer1000 Thanks, I just received my student certificate and I'll be starting training for a prvt soon.

[cjracer1000]

@NikySportsPromotion Great! Good luck!

[rohanA380]

too many cars and people on that road it would have been impossible! and the powerlines will get into the wings so it would break power for many!

[cjracer1000]

@rohanA380 I'm sure many people would've died, but it was just for fun, thank's for your insightful comment!

[fsC130J]

that was a good idea!

[cjracer1000]

Thank you! Everyone has to be so critical! It's a p© v!d30 g4m3! lol

[fsC130J]

Haha, your welcome!

[getemhi]

He could have also just went up to space. There he would have just floated till the space shuttle got up there to fix his engines. We did that about 4 years ago in a flight I was in.

[boycoollike]

Yeah right

[volcom1722]

That cant be true.

[EpicGamer249]

your the f**** thick shites for repling to the dumbass

[boycoollike]

Dont fucking call me a fucker go suck a cock dumbass stop trying to pitch online fights little kid

[EpicGamer249]

fuk fuk fuk fuk dOUCHE BAFFGGGGGGGGG

YOU FUK UR SELF WITH UR 1" MAGGOT DIK, YOUR JUST A 44 YEAR OLD VIRGIN.

[boycoollike]

44 year old virgin? Im 18 and you oh well you just a little 10 year old kid who stays on the computer for 8 hours Each day why dont you just get a life

[EpicGamer249]

15 actually---------dumbasss

i need to life

you the fukking douche bag replying to some littile squirts comment

go fuk ur self bitch

ohh and you lover is sat next to me, she sed she will call you when she is finished to come and pick her up.....

[boycoollike]

Its cant be True Because no airplane can fly Except the concorde Can fly higher then 39,999 Feet A plane can obviusly Fly up to 41000 Feet but no oxygen or Air pressure for a plae to fly

[cjracer1000]

I don't know who you are responding to but...last time I checked the service ceiling of the 747 was around fl430 and well I have no idea where you got that information.

[bowlingwithzombies]

@getemhi ha thats great! you just made my day hahaha!

[Blatpoppin5]

sorry to say but that's a dumb idea

if he was to do that,he was better of trying to go back to La Guardia,Teterboro,or Newark

because as soon as he landing he's gonna crash into cars,lights,and whatever else to make a big explosion.

[cjracer1000]

oh yea i know , its just a joke the real reason i made this video is to see how many negitave comments i could get !-)

[Blatpoppin5]

lol ok :-)

[umahuma4]

congrats, you just riped the landing gear up landing on cars, you killed alot of innocent moterast, and probably killed alot if not eveyone on board

[cjracer1000]

i know, that's why this is fictitious and there are no cars on the road, jerk

[cjracer1000]

:-)

[ATACCM]

Dumbest idea I have ever heard.

[cjracer1000]

nnnnooooo, because that street is the street that the uss enterpise is on, so how could the get the concorde from the air to the enterprise, i wouldn't want to dismantle it and tarnsport it like that, just land it ther lol jk

[skatesnow1118]

that would make things a whole lot easier if there where mile long strips of unobstructed flat land in the middle of densely populated areas, lol.

[cjracer1000]

yea tellem!!! dude that street should be a runway because hey, how did they get the concord to the uss enterprise, theydidn't land it, so... its on this street anyways

[cjracer1000]

lol & it's HD!!!

[cjracer1000]

it's ur connection

[cjracer1000]

hey thanks!

[GuitarHeroAzzKicker]

sweet vid

[cjracer1000]

thx!!

[liv4deth95]

love it im a new yorker so that makes it better

i cant belive they wanted him to TURN BACK to KLGA.

I meen he lost BOTH ENGINES if only 1 maybe but 2!

great vid as always!

[cjracer1000]

thx!!

[fsimpro]

well he would have hit all the cars and killed people there too, and this is fs, not real life so

[cjracer1000]

yea, i considered that, i new someone would say something about that but, hey this is fs, you can land a plane at 10000 fpm and still survive so ya kno

[slang989]

Yah and if you try to land on the ocean u find urself flying above it.

[cjracer1000]

lol, i just got it

[cjracer1000]

that is actually the only reason i didn't do a water landing
