  • the copilot is cute

  • @ 4:18 Re: Boeing 767 ditching caught on amature film "ran out of gas"........while technically accurate there is MORE to that story. That Boeing 767 had been hijacked and was under a hostile take over NOT normal operations that went bad.

  • Sullenberger ditched an a320 safely

  • @NFreund great job, not try doing it with a crazy hijacker pointing a gun in your face.

  • @NFreund I assure you that i'm not pulling the piss out of you, when I say this....However... I was a combat soldier, and combat exercises, where you were in no danger of dying, was one thing. Combat, where you WERE in danger of dying, is a completely different ball game. Make a mistake in a simulation, and you restart it.....Make a mistake in reality, and you die. It has a different effect on the stress level encountered.

  • @bvestationfan The A330/340 is NOTHING like the A320

  • @NFreund Yeah, but the 767 was hijacked, the hijackers were fighting the pilot to the last minutes of ditching.

  • An A320 can ditch with a 130 MPH speed and 11.5 degree pitch up. Wouldn't it be the same with a extremely similar A330 and A340? Hell an A340 is just a 4 engine variant of the A330

  • That Boeing 767 mad a very crappy landing...i did this in a full size simulator (Boeing 777) and made it...and i am only a glider plane pilot. The key is to hold the plane absolutly leveled and ditch with BOTH engines at the same time. And you have to hold the plane at stall speed...the stickshakers must be shaking at that moment...it's tricky, but not that difficult

  • man, if i were on a plane, i would not want to have time to think about a painful death. if a crash was going to happen, i want it to be quick or something.

  • @The0013 but is shows the flaps deployed in the glide. stupid filmmakers

  • @jfsa380 My bad, flaps were not working indeed. But the pilots didn't use them, they unlocked slats (leading edge surfaces) instead.
