Any landing you walk, or swim, away from is a good one.

The air traffic controllers must have been shitting themselves when they lost radar contact. I'm sure they just assumed it crashed.

[gat0rbball]

@mediumspectrum Nope. They wouldn't shit themselves. That is their job.

he could have made it back to leguardia but he didnt want to risk being short over a populated area with no where to land

[esthermlaw]

I can't understand all the overlapping chatter.

@esthermlaw This audio recording didn't sort out the controllers so we got the NY Departure (the guy dealing with Cactus 1549), we got Teterboro tower, we got LaGuardia Tower and all the airplanes they are dealing with plus the guy dealing with the EMS so it's a shitload of frequencies.

[esthermlaw]

@fgcarva1 I wonder if anyone could add captions? I can read multiple lines at a time and pause if necessary. Maybe if the captain's voice showed at the top of the screen, NY departure under that, towers under that, and EMS under that. Then us amateurs could decipher what's going on.

Obviously the pilot did and amazing job but equally thank you to the controllers and local law enforcement/rescue personnel that responsed incredibly. Training!!! This is evidence of how training works!!!
