[@speckofdignity2487]

My favorite aviation story is still the time I was on a seemingly normal domestic flight, that had already been delayed a few hours, and then around when we should’ve landed, I realized the plane was just in a holding pattern, for a lot longer than it should’ve been. The pilot then said over the PA that the landing was delayed because there was “*something* on the runway” (said in slightly annoyed tone) I was incredibly confused why the pilot sounded more irritated than anything, since I immediately assumed the worst, like a previous plane had crashed. After a while, the pilot said we were clear, and we landed, he never explained the delay. Then my brother (who always wanted to be a pilot, and worked in an airport for a while) came to pick me up, and he was laughing incredibly hard. Turns out he was listening to the ATC radio signal, and the “*something*” that was on the runway… was a possum.

@@abbycross90210 the holding pattern was at most only one hour (I remember that because I barely finished a 50 minute Mythbusters episode before we were preparing to land) The only hours long wait was earlier, before we even took off. Besides, they had only just spotted the possum for a second and then lost track of it, so they didn’t know if it was on the runway or not

Sully had so much criticism at the time, but what he did was outstanding. The amount of pilots who simulated the same path and said "he could've made it", or those who commented on his state of mind, was astounding to me. Sully made every second count, and I firmly believe if he could've made it, he would've made it. The shear knowledge and skill it took to land that plane, in the water, without killing a passenger, without taking out any boats, and without rolling the airplane, was absolutely phenomenal. I wish more people talked about the air traffic controller, who probably also had the worst day of his life, sitting there in silence, thinking he's lost a plane and all its passengers on his watch, while sully is deciding he has to land an airplane into a river.

[@SujanraAcoma]

The ATSB wasn’t nearly as hostile in real life as they were in the movie.

[@theamericanyoutuber]

@@SujanraAcoma Fortunately. There was quite a fight between producers of the movies and Sully and...?? I forgot his name 😞 on how mean to make them for the sake of Hollywood. It ended with them being a little mean, but not borderline-evil as was originally intended. Sully and J knew that the guys were simply doing their job with the simulation and the engine, so they didn’t want the audience to hate them by hyperbolizing their actions.

Love Sully. That happened on my second day of a New York holiday, it was the most surreal moment of my life seeing that plane floating in the Hudson. Sully is an absolute hero, terrible the way the airline treated him afterwards. If you haven't seen it, see it!

[@SeaGLGaming]

One of my aunt's friends was part of that the NTSB investigation, and the investigation went down nothing like it did in the movie. The investigators had to do what they had to do under any aircraft accident and find out what happened, what was done, and what could have been done instead to avoid it. They all thought of Sully as a hero and said Sully was extremely cooperative in the investigation. Sully in that investigation helped bring about a lot of training and procedure changes in the event of situations like that.

[@rolirolster]

One of the things I appreciate most about Sully is the lack of music during the crash. It makes the scene much more intense and seem more realistic

Sully is one of my favorite movies. Sully is indeed a true hero, but poor co-pilot Jeff doesn't get enough credit. It was a team effort, and Jeff is a hero too. That scene where the other pilots try to get to the airport in a simulation always makes me so nervous. It's terrifying to see what could have happened if Sully didn't make the decision he did.

[@mjelves]

Was Sully really a «hero»? He did his job (albeit under hard conditions), which he was trained and highly experiened to do. Being a hero means putting yourself in great risk in order save lives. Sully did no such thing. Still, he did an excellent job

Fun Fact: When he was talking about "Flight" he mentions an insecure first officer being too scared to correct his more experienced Captain. Before all airlines globally switched to communication in English, this behavior caused dozens of crashes of Korean flights because contradicting your older and more experienced superior does against the entirety of Korean culture. This wasn't discovered until the switch to all English communication and American or European pilots would listen in on Korean flight crew comms and finally discovered captains making mistakes that would never be corrected by their XO.

It was actually the crash of a hijacked Boeing 777 that started them training for water landings. The pilot made a mistake ditching the plane with no fuel.

While Flight was an interesting film more centered around Densels character it was a very hollywood drama and a little haunting remembering Alaska airline flight 261 and the portrayal of the FO was embarrassing.

This was such a great video! He did a great job explaining and I'm happy he went into detail about so many different things. I didn't realize the video was 45 mins long until after I finished it. It makes me feel a little more comforted about flying. Also his reaction to Airplane! is hilarious.

[@austinp.E175]

At 10:30 he mentions “controlled rest” or CRIP (controlled rest in position). This is allowed in several but not all countries. The United States FAA has still outlawed CRIP as of right now. The countries that have implemented CRIP (namely Canada and Australia) only allow pilots to sleep for a maximum of 45 minutes and both pilots must be awake at least 15 minutes before any critical phase of flight (generally the descent). Just didn’t want people to think that their captain or first officer is asleep on the job.

[@AlexBsSecret]

in a healthy job enviroment workers health should always be prioritized, so having a worker be tired BECAUSE of his job shouldn't happen. Like pilots shouldn't have to f fly flight after flight without having enough rest. But imo CRIP seems to be a good way to give overtired pilots the chance to rest so they have enough power to do their job correctly.

So...under strict specifications like they literally stated in the video.

At the end of the day, Captain Sully took the moral decision of putting at risk ONLY the souls on board of the plane instead of the souls on board AND all the souls in one of the most crowded cities in the world. What would have happened if they couldn't make it? Everybody in the plane would have died and probably tens or even hundreds in land would have died or being injured.

It's not as far fetched as you may think. Alaska flight 261 had a catastrophic failure of their stabilizer causing the plane to pitch down uncontrollably. They attempted to fly inverted to regain control, unsuccessfully.

[@sta1RR]

Anyone really can fly it upside down, but its just not allowed for obvious purposes.

It's perfectly possible to do that, airline pilots just never do it because it's dangerous and stupid. One pilot did it without permission at an airshow some years ago, but was fired for obvious reasons.

[@melissajohnson2935]

@@Teh_Random_Canadian I thought there was so much going on during that flight that they didn't even realize they were inverted. Anyway it goes, that's one of the most horrible crashes in history, the fear those people must have been in and they all died without knowing just how hard that flight crew fought to save them to very end.

[@Kath_BookVampire]

I have never even seen Sully but that whole walk throught made me emotional. Maybe because of my fear of flying.

[@ammaleslie509]

I have a fear of flying too. But i saw Sully in the theatre and have seen it on television since. Oddly enough, Sully is both tense and comforting, because you already know that everyone is going to survive. So you watch to see how they manage to survive, and how he proves that he made the only decision possible at the time in spite of experts claiming he should have tried other ways to save the plane. It is a fine movie and Tom Hanks is superb as always and I highly recommend it. I am terrified to fly and I love "Sully".
