My dad is a JetBlue pilot and arranged with a JetBlue instructor to give me a tour of JetBlue University in Orlando, FL, including the full-motion simulator of the Airbus A320. On this "flight" we re-enacted Captain Sullenberger's ditching in the Hudson River.

  • omg you crashed the simulator...there goes another 10 million dollar aircraft..tisk tisk. jk ;) that is so cool your dad got you in to try out your skills. the simulator looks great. by the way did you study at all for the flight?? just curious.

  • @coolbeans278 nah i didnt study. we kinda thought of things to do on the spot. we did a few different things: ILS approaches down to minimums, visual approaches, landing in saint maarten, and then this.

  • dude i did the same thing!! acually it was in orlando, what sim mod are you in? I did the embraer ones on the other side of the a320's

  • @fballeagles15 woahh really? and yeah this was also at JetBlue University! And I believe I was in sim 2 or 3...don't really remember lol. i wanted to check out the Embraer, but my dad's a pilot on the 320 so we just stuck with that. how did you do?

  • So nice.. You are the best..

  • thank you very much!

  • Really cool. When I was a kid my Dad had me in the 727 simulator at US Airways and it's something that i'll never forget. You and your dad will remember those times together! (I ended up working for USAirways for a few years but never had the chance to fly with him)

  • how much does this cost cause im close to MCO and I've been dying to do it

  • i like this vid

  • Was your dad the one filming or the guy behind you? just curious :)

  • Love it! Looks so real!!

  • I'd love to do that sometime. Unfortunately, I don't think there's any way for my dad to get me into the US Airways Simulator in Charlotte.

  • amazing!

  • @tomcatpilot1 its the kobiyashimaru simulation, should have snuck in and reprogrammed it so you could land it at the nearest airport. ;)
