We´re gonna be in the Hudson. I´m sorry say again cactus. Looks like WTF Are you crazy?

[rbanta182]

Yo FO was under immense pressure. So he got the flight numbers mixed. So what? Everyone knew what he meant, it's hard to think straight in a time like that. Don't be assholes pickin on the one thing he said wrong. Immature

[Bango61]

Way to get the call sign mixed up.

[DetEJagDe]

So it was Cactus 1529, 1539 and 1549 that crashed

@rdrd4544

No he did not, that was another aircraft pilot saying "eighty echo"

[699449]

i bet every pilot was on same frequency were like THANK GOD ITS NOT ME

[Dominoes282]

Man the FO was a douche toward the ATC haha. Anyways good way to stay calm, it's good that Eagle 4178 helped the ATC. Oh btw, did the ATC at La Guardia call the coast guard or was it the new jersey ATC?

[fiona3637]

@Dominoes282

F/O Skiles did NOT call the ATC an idiot; that is another pilot calling "eighty echo"

[picure]

My god, that pilot is freaking good. He was so clam through the whole thing. A real professional.

[abcusuk]

what airline is that jetlink flight??

[Flyinblyian]

Jetlink is Continential express......

All parties involved are the best of their profession. The flight controller did an outstanding job as well, but of course, it isn't as glamorous as landing a plane in a river and walking away. Kudos to the FC for remaining calm and thinking quick on his feet.

[CmdrX3]

Which flight was it - 1549, 1539 or 1529. Nice flying though

[nierdlord]

Flight 1549.

[CmdrX3]

Cheers, I don't know why people gave me a thumbs down for the question though, as all three callsigns were used.

[MSR738]

Kudos to the crew of Cactus 1549 Thumbs Up

[aaft9]
