Forget "pilot error" - This is a case of "pilot brilliance!"

people in the cockpit: *Shaking violently*
Guy in the back: It was a perfect landing

Have we learned our lesson here? Yes don’t go on a plane with a smithsonian camera guy or bad things are going to happen

[PowersDave]

Sully isn’t the only one. This story and many others including the Gimley glider, are just as cool. These pilots are absolute heroes to me.

They show the landing as externally rough... the flight attendant then says "The landing was so smooth, like a perfect landing"

Today, September 1, 2023, that man retired from commercial aviation. respect

3:12 - Pilots and passengers thrown around.

3:35 - "The landing was spectacular, the plane landed sooo smoothly. There wasn't even a bit of turbulence. A perfect landing."

Someone's not telling the truth....

[nickaalex]

Surprised this wasn’t mentioned, but that levee was at the back of the NASA facility in New Orleans where I worked for many years. It’s in New Orleans East - the Michoud Assembly Facility, where the Saturn V boosters were built as well as the Space Shuttle External Tanks. The main NASA building there (Bldg 350) had photos of it and the plane/crew next to the main offices. It was an amazing feat, and just miraculous that nobody was hurt. NASA presented the crew with awards as well. :) I think this was 1988...?

DROOVE MY BOEING TO THE LEVEE BUT THE LEVEE WAS DRY

[JWOHALL]

This is smoother than most landings with Ryanair

[bonkerwonker]

Imagine cutting the grass on a riding lawnmower and you see a commercial jet coming to land behind you.
