As a huge fan of aviation, I was surprised that not only was this A320 still around.....but it's in a museum?! Severely cool. Cheers Capt. Sully, you are an inspiration to everyone.
I wouldn’t have cared about lost luggage voucher a refund for the ticket or anything. I would just loved to shake The hand of the man who just saved my life! Sully you are a hero special place in heaven for you sir!
You might want to thank the co-piolet he's was a Capitan also, but was flying co-piolet that day. He always jokes you know he wasn't the only person in the cockpit.
At the time of the incident, Capt Sully had 19,663 total flight hours. First Officer Skiles was also a highly experienced pilot with 15,643 total hours. The chance of two pilots with a combined total of over 35,300+ total hours is unheard of. For reference, the FAA only requires 1,500 hours to fly as an airline pilot. They had the crew they needed, along with a veteran Flight Attendant crew to ensure the safety of those onboard, along with potential victims on the ground, if they had tried to make a runway.
@@jamesriggs6210that is the sad part in these type of situations. One person ends up getting the spotlight. Even in a death situation. One person involved that has some fame that’s all that is recognized. Not the other people who no one knew. It’s sad. As a pilot especially I know how much of a team effort this was. Those airplanes are not certified for single pilot operation. So without the co pilot, outside of an emergency or incapacitation, that plane is not flying. The term called CRM. Cockpit resource management. We use all resources available during an emergency. Atc included also. But our order of operations is any case is always aviate, navigate, communicate. In that order and sully did just that. Sometimes atc albeit with good intentions can be a distraction during an emergency and sometimes cause more harm than good.
I was at the old museum right before they closed to relocate and I asked 3 museum volunteers that were talking(all retired pilots) how many people could have landed that plane safely. They all agreed that most pilots could not have done it. I'm still not sure whether that's true but it gave me a new respect for what he did that day
My life was spent in the Aviation world, military and civilian. Captain Sully was an Air-force Pilot, well trained in the art of air breaking. What's that? In short the ability to maintain flight speeds for maximum lift, particularly on approaches. I think most AF pilots could have landed the plane with identical circumstances. Just don't ask a Navy pilot to do it
I think they said on Aircrash Investigation that the NTSB got pilots in a simulator to attempt to make it to an airfield, and it was essentially impossible. And of course, they don't practice/simulate water landings.
@@joek511navy could Probably put it down in a swimming pool. Lol. You kidding? Can you elaborate as to why your bias against navy pilots? For the record I’m not a navy pilot lol. Nor ever served. I am a pilot tho. There’s some incredible pilots in the navy and what they do is insane landing on those carriers.
Honestly, now, that is sadly a fairly accurate statement. The pilot shortage that the media has spoke about is actually more of an experience shortage. We have “pilots”, just a bunch of children of the magenta line. More operators than pilots. Sully was a legend. There’s still a lot of others like him out there flying but not like their used to be. Honestly if it wasn’t for all the military pilots typically taking civilian pilot jobs afterwards, I think the industry would be screwed. I refused to go to a part 141 flight school. Which is a certain format and these schools are pilot mills. Everything is about what you need to know to get to the airlines. We are loosing the grass roots which is why the comment made to you is accurate. My flight school is the best. Old school starts at the grass roots first. No tech in beginning. In fact until I knew configurations of the airplane based off attitude and engine rpm he kept the gauges covered. Airspeed included. These grass roots “stick and rudder” “pilotage and dead reckoning” are going by the wayside. It’s sad. So at 40 I decided to change careers leave my business and become the change I want to see in aviation. Find a school that will make me a good pilot. Everyone I had asked said the school is tough but you will be a good pilot when you leave. We have lost good leadership. Too many followers and poor leadership. Integrity has gone by the wayside and ignorant victims are dying in their airplane every month because of it.
@@gtm624 I was in Naval aviation, slow gradual landings are not what they do. They do make excellent pilots . I have a very close friend , Nave Pilot who fly's for Delta
Very cool, Chris - not only about Sully's landing on the Hudson (I grew up on the Hudson about 70 miles due north), but also about Sikorsky. During my days in the Army's Command and General Staff Officers Course (C&GSC) I did my paper on the helicopter, would have flown them but my career took a different route. Still love them, big time. Thanks for sharing, as always!
If you want to see an awesome aircraft museum, you should go to Dayton, Ohio to the US Air Force Museum right next to Wright-Patterson US Air Force Base.
Wow I’m an aviation buff 100% this would really be worth the visit! Thanks so much for sharing this and other interesting places and stories as always! What an experience. Gonna pass this along to my sister who’s going to NC.
It's wild, I know a guy that was on the plane. He was headed to NC to meet up with his race car engine builder. You can see him in the footage standing on the wing with his NMCA champion's jacket on.
That's so cool Chris. Gotta love history including law enforcement history and military history and aviation history. I'm a huge history nerd just like you are.
A,a zing I found your note! We moved to Phoenix in January 1955 and I lived there will 2003! We loved parking at the end of the runway - think it was 40th street at that time. We also used to go to the roof of Termjnal #1 (the original and only one at that time). My Dad worked at AiResearch at this time - step mom did too, plus myself, and my husband and several other cousins, etc. all at various times but close to 11 of us were all there at the same time, just in different areas!
Id like to visit. I remember getting the call to be on alert for this. So I was listening to the radio, hearing all this unfold and it still gives me chills that they all made it. NYPD divers did a great job but the unsung heroes are the ferry pilots that diverted to pick up the stranded pax. Times also seems so different back then huh.
The Lady was indeed a 222, was of the very first of that model, modded for the show. Interestingly enough, one of the pilots who test-flew it after the modifications were added, commented that she actually flew BETTER with the heavy cosmetics installed. Sad that she was crashed in Europe, shortly after she began her post-Airwolf career. The last I checked, we still have an allegedly-Production but not airworthy Airwolf here in Los Angeles, deteriorating outside in the elements. If I had the money, I’d restore it and preserve it indoors.
$5K and an apology letter seems lame but all those people were so lucky to be alive. There's no possible way of blaming anything on the airline or the plane. Scully is a hero and a lucky guy, himself.
Sully demonstrated the skill you hope all airline pilots have. Dude had it wired that day. Right instincts , right reactions. Outstanding is the only word that applies
2 days ago, i flew into Chicago O'Hare and we came a little around lake Michigan to go to the runway and land and all i could think as i looked down at the water was of the miracle on the Hudson.
Great video,Chris. Nice to see Cactus 1529 is in good hands. Side note: I used to work for America West Airlines(CACTUS) in the 90's and when we merged/bought USAir, they kept our CACTUS call sign all the way into the beginning of the next merger with AA.

@@MyKingdomForAK9 That's a great story too of your time with ZW/UA! Yeah I pretty much worked almost every position even baggage service. If you ever want to tell stories, hit me up: e36tii@gmail
I remember getting ready for bed the next day, which was January 16th 2009 and my mom had told me that this plane had ended up in the Hudson river. When I was shocked I still remember I was shocked and I was turning 5 in 11 days after the airplane crashed into the Hudson River, and I still remember saying, "Wow!" To my mom.
The museum had a lot of War planes, If would be nice to see the Queen of the Skies on display in her glory where people can walk through and sit down to experience her majesty Pan Am was a huge part of American aviation
Now that is an incredible aviation museum! Absolutely my favorite part of our DC trip (except my Moms (RIP) video in the Smithsonian Native American Museum)
I love about 30 miles of Charlotte and have seen the Miracle plane quite a few years ago - didn’t know they had a whole new museum! It’s ti e to get back to the museum!!,
Right now I'm staying just around the corner from this place and I had no clue it existed. That's why I love watching your content. If you're still in Charlotte go check out the Nascar Hall of Fame Museum!
My great great uncle was in the very first group of US Navy pilots and the very first to be fired at in combat. Lt. Richard Sauffley. He was killed in training in 1916 and part of Pensacola Naval Air Station is named Sauffley Field after him.
In 1986 I walked into the Navy Recruitment office and for like two hours they couldnt offer me any job but computers and even drones back then were in the works ,. but nothing with my needs . so I walked across the hall and joined the Marine Corps infantry and ended up in motor T.,.,.,/.,., for 25 years ,.,cool movie
Actually due to cleanup efforts by NYC over the years, it's actually safe to swim in the Hudson river today, and indeed the river water is further purified and is used in the city's water supply (from upstate where it isn't brakish with salt water).
They brought the engines back to where they were made.( Evendale Ohio) And disassembled them. Sending bird remnants back to Smithsonian for identification
Always here for all your content. I'm curious of the significance of all the items on display, like soda pop cans and wine bottles, Captain sullenberger's Rolex watch, Cheryl Nejman's red wallet and BlackBerry cell phone, and random garbage?, Just seems random
Maybe that's the point. Random everyday things that represent a snapshot of a moment in time. They don't seem to have much significance now because the event was too recent. A hundred years from now, people would find it poignant like a display of items from the Titanic or similar disaster.
Reminds me of an old Robin Williams joke: "What if it's the pilot's time?!". But in this case, "What if it's the pilot's time... to save over 150 people?!"
What a worthy thing to name the museum after Sully, maybe somewhere in the world, someone will honour another aviation hero, Captain Eric Moody, a British Airways B747 Captain and pilot, who, saved a B747 and hundreds of passengers and crew in 1982, by restarting the 4 engines after they flamed out in a volcanic ash cloud. He, and his fellow pilots and engineer, successfully landed the aircraft with no forward visibility as the ash has scoured the cockpit glass and made it opaque. Sadly Eric passed away this year aged 82 but his name lives in the memory of all us BA employees from that era……a memorial would certainly be appropriate……
8:07 WOW that’s something you don’t see anymore. A huge binder of approach plates. Lol. Now it’s all on an iPad. But that was what they did years ago. Carry around a huge binder That is what we use to view the approach route to land at a particular airport when flying on instruments.
Captain Sullenberger is a god among men….! To keep your cool and put that plane in a readiness state for a crash landing then set that disabled aircraft down in the river between all those obstacles in a matter of seconds is something I will never forget. God bless Sully.
While Charlotte being the intended destination is a totally appropriate location for this an even better venue would have been the Intrepid Air and Space Museum as that is right at the location of the event itself!
Spooky as heck but we were in Charlotte in 2017. One night, we watched the Sully movie then, completely by accident and unintended, we found and could touch the actual plane the very next day. You are talking a couple from New Zealand, just sightseeing, and this coincidence happens lol.

Captain Sullenberger is a god among men….! To keep your cool and put that plane in a readiness state for a crash landing then set that disabled aircraft down in the river between all those obstacles in a matter of seconds is something I will never forget. God bless Sully.
While Charlotte being the intended destination is a totally appropriate location for this an even better venue would have been the Intrepid Air and Space Museum as that is right at the location of the event itself!
I actually just went there the other day! Seeing the plane was amazing
Spooky as heck but we were in Charlotte in 2017. One night, we watched the Sully movie then, completely by accident and unintended, we found and could touch the actual plane the very next day. You are talking a couple from New Zealand, just sightseeing, and this coincidence happens lol.
Airwolf was a Bell 222. You were correct in identifying the helicopter as Airwolf.
Airwolf was a great show!
I'm from jersey and was a teenager then I don't remember it touring through haha. Having kids touch mangled metal is wild af lol
Airwolf and Blue Thunder
I can still hear the airwolf theme tune in my head 😂
I got emotional. Planes and NYC did not mix well with me.
Hi, please come visit Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Greene County, Ohio. It's amazing!
Thanks 😊

I still can’t believe I saw this. I know lots of people did too but, still unexpected when your just minding your busy while walking ya know?
