It was an amazing rescue!

It was not a miracle, let’s give credit where credit was due. A very skilled pilot.
The pilot is to be recognized for his calm and his step by step knowledge to know how to accomplish emergency landing procedures in water.
I’m glad everyone is safe.

Thank you, Laura! Bloomberg says the same thing and the media seem to be having a battle between the “it’s a miracle” guys and the “masterful pilot” guys. I am really sick of every unexpectedly good outcome being called a miracle. There is a perfectly fine explanation of what happened – no miracle needed.

Thanks God!
They’re all alive.

Guys, i agree with Laura. All credit must go to the pilot. He not only showed skill but saved every single passenger….
January 16th, 2009 at 9:15 am
As they save “Its what we train for” lets hope behind the scenes the pilot doesnt get too much stick. All credit to his airmanship.

To Add,
Hate this media Term ‘CRASH LANDING’ NO NO !! Force Landing, and a very tricky one, Respect to the Chesley B. ‘Sully’ Sullenberger.

Lets not forget the co-pilot and other crew too. The Work load in that cocpit in the last 3 minutes must have been very heavy. GOOD TEAM WORK guys.

I’m glad the pilot gave credit to his entire team, including the flight attendants. Flight attendants are trained to get everyone off of a plane within seconds to a couple of minutes of a crash landing. I’m sure their skill also helped get everyone off the plane before there were any casualties.

I sincerely hope that Obama and his crew will show similar skills to bring the U.S.A. back on the right course.
January 17th, 2009 at 7:19 pm
Thank god, that the Engines did come off on impact, most likely, otherwise, the aircraft could have nosed over lower in the water, and came to rest lower in the water as well,due to the extra weight, which would have made rescue efforts much difficult, and perhaps not a 100% succdessful. Hats Off to the Pilot & Rescue crews as well. They All Did a heck of a fine Job Thanks Jerry heloman2@midmaine.com

[...] is great, a computer simulation of US Airways Flight 1549 crashing into the Hudson. Man this pilot is cool as cucumber as he touches a plane with no engines [...]

Does anyone else think that this feat and fortune of survival ought to be memorialized with a physical site?
