this is old news this farce has already been debunked. theres indisputable evidence to show it was the l33t haxorz and world bank leaders who set this shit up to further their own wealth and personal gain.

haha well i agree the guy was just doing his job and what he is supposed to be prepared to do. BUT, it still is an accomplishment to be able to do all that with such precision. there have been attempts before to make an emergency landing in water, none succeeding like this.

No, but from what I understand if he would have had a wing hit the water on impact the plane would have cartwheeled and dimantled leaving alot of people dead.

If the plane goes down anywhere else in the metro area, then we're talking about major loss of life, both on the plane and among people on the ground.

that's my opinion as well

2 birds strike 2 engines at the same time and the engines go out  ::)

and the manufacturers said they had made engines that with stood bird strikes


but can you imagine a flock of 100 birds hitting an airplane?  :o

Hahaha....gotta love all these virtual pilots here :D

What are the chances for one engine to fail? Imagine the number of flights everyday, and how often there are engine failures...Exactly, it is ridiculously small...
Now, what are the chances that BOTH engines, working independently, fail at the EXACT same time just because of "poor" maintenance?

Big birds can easily cause an engine failure, so why is it so hard to believe that flying through a flock of birds would shut both engines?

And the manufacturers saying that their engines can handle bird strikes is complete bullshit...

From what I heard, he pulled off the amazing landing, then after everyone was off the
Plane, still went and checked 3 or 4 more times. Definitely a hero in my book.

If he isn't a hero, who is? The most heroic act what you can provide in that situation, is shitting your pants and crying for mercy, but he bring the plane down without casualties. He is a hero, and you are just another brattish little wanker, which has no life outside of the getbig forums.  Difference between you two is obvious:  He fly passenger jets and fuck air hostesses, you write an another crappy comment, and fuck your right hand...

Leasten retard, his job is to fly airplanes and land them safely, no matter what the circumstances are ,he did a great job but he is not a hero, that's his job.
Firefighters that die on 9/11 weren't heroes either ,they were doing their job ,the one they trained for and got paid for.
Soldiers, cops , heart surgeons ......etc.  aren't heroes either.
A hero is someone who risks his own life to save someone else for free  ;)

Sorry to to say, but I don't think that people of this universe has vote you to be that person, whose job is decide a definition of heroism, because of simple reason: you are just another teen geek without no life experience what so ever, and therefore too young to be a nominee for that job. When you grow up (if that is ever going to happen), you feel differently about the matter. Meanwhile just go back to your closet and wait there.
