Ditching a modern airliner
Just found where allegedly, "However, despite his composure during the accident, Sully reveals to Telegraph Travel that he had received minimal training for a water landing (or “ditching”)."
I have a few questions;
1) Do airlines/manufacturer's cover this in documents/procedures?
2) Is it ever covered in a simulator training exercise?
Or is it just the old "head in the sand, it won't happen to us" mentality?
Remembering the three ideal ingredients, 1) calm sea, 2) minimum rate of descent and 3) minimum safe water contact speed.
