Isn't Crashing into the Hudson Putting Passengers in Deeper Shit?

Current mood:  argumentative

Is it distasteful to call the pilot of the plane that crashed into the Hudson a hack? When most crashes are investigated, the error is usually not mechanical, it is the pilot at fault.

Don't sell me the bird(s) in the engine theory. Bruce Willis put a big black guy through a jet engine in the second "Die Hard", and that plane took off with no mechanical trouble. It took a "Yippi Kai Yay Motherfucker" to put that jet to rest.

It is good, sorry...great that he was able to land the plane. That is until the contamination law suits start pouring in (it is not like he crashed in to Perrier Lake), but does that make him a hero?

If I was able to recover my car after sliding on black ice thus not ending up in a ditch, the other people in the car would give me a slap to face straight out of "Every Which Way But Loose" and declare in unison that I was a dumb ass or I'd hear, "you didn't see the ice?" It is certain that if the car ends up in the ditch, they'd do the same to me.

For me to walk out of an accident like that with praise: the car would have to roll a couple of time, end up right side up, and I'd have to be able to hit the gas and jerk the vehicle out of the way of oncoming traffic.

Isn't that all this incident was? He landed in a river instead of burning up in Central Park. To hell with investigating the incident, this lucky son of a bitch should have more brain trauma than the panicky chick in "Airplane".
