Captain Sully, what is it like to be a miracle worker? How did you accomplish this feat? Can you believe it? A Snickers bar sells for five dollars, and if I eat a few more bites, I could bankrupt the airline. I prefer the feeling of being in control. How do you feel when people call you a hero? I don't think I'm a hero, I'm just doing my job. Make the right choice at the right time. Have you been flying for nearly forty years? Forty-two years, I have been flying all my life, my whole life. Pilots are always learning, you make mistakes, it's human nature, learn from your mistakes. Sally, when did you hear that someone successfully landed a plane on the water and all were saved. Not afraid of delays, but afraid of accidents. Human pilots are not computers, and results may vary. What if they gave the same result? If so, I'll give up my piloting career. Timing is everything, Larry, anything can be done without a hurry. I totally agree with that. I'm just... I just realized for the first time that you were one of a hundred and fifty-five people on the plane, and we almost lost you. We all know the computer simulation results, and we have seen the actual simulation, but I still can't believe that you still haven't considered the human factor. Simulation results with human pilots have shown that you can successfully return to the airport. No, they can't, these pilots are not behaving normally, not like people experiencing this for the first time. Maybe they just don't act like you. Immediately after the flock hit, they turned and returned to the airport, just as the computer simulated, right? That's right. Obviously they knew how to turn, how to set course, they didn't check, they didn't turn on the APU. They face the same parameters as you did at the time. No one warned us, no one told us, "You're going to have a twin-engine shutdown at an all-time low, but don't be nervous, just turn left and fly back to LaGuardia, like It's like going back to get milk", at an altitude of 2,800 feet, suffered a twin engine shutdown, followed by an immediate ditching, and there were 155 lives on board, no one had ever received training for this type of accident, no people. Landing at Teterboro at that unrealistic bank angle, we're not the Thunderbirds aerobatic team, I wonder, how many times did the pilots practice in total for this simulated landing? I'm not questioning these pilots, they are all very good, but it is clear that they returned to the airport immediately after being hit by a flock of birds as instructed. There is no analysis of the cause of the failure, and the process of decision-making. In these simulations, you guys Excluding all human factors, how long did these pilots prepare for this flight simulation for this situation? Since you're investigating human error, don't be so mechanized. It's not a video game, it's a matter of life and death, and Sally is right, it takes time to react.
