In my opinion, more humans would suggest landing in water without gear is better.
Additionally, the Sully incident is famous enough that a pilot should have read about it.
To me, this move is more logical if you assume the pilot wanted to die as quick as possible, the nose wouldn't tear apart, only the back like it happened with this passenger jet: https://youtu.be/KCuh_2M4o3A?t=293 https://youtu.be/KCuh_2M4o3A?t=293
- uberman 4y agoTerrifying to be sure, but compare the potential survivability of that crash with this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbPU6yZetlw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbPU6yZetlw If you wanted to kill everyone on the plane you would not attempt a conventional water landing gear or not.
- bionade24 4y agoIdk if I'm drifting too far to support my argument, but I'd assume the pilot may didn't want to experience the g forces or was unsure till the end. In the end, I'm not settled on this & we really need to find & recover the plane.
