A new video re-creation of the miraculous splashdown of the U.S. Airways Flight 1549 in the Hudson River last Jan. 15 is stunning in its attention to detail.
You can listen to what Capt. Chesley Sullenberger and his co-pilot Jeffrey Skiles are saying to air traffic controllers (and read what they are saying to each other) exactly as the airplane hits the geese and as they quickly weigh their options with both jet engines out.
Take a look. This video by K3 Resources engineer Kas Osterbuhr is as short as the real flight: 6 minutes.
