Red face Sky news now sensationalising things (again)

Probe Into New York Plane Crash In Hudson River Begins: Hero Pilot Chesley Sullenberger Yet To Talk | World News | Sky News

SLF here. I have nothing but admiration for the guys up front and I really don't think that Sky need to be sensationalising the story tabloid fashion, just because they've exhausted all the other angles.

The crew did a great job, end of story.

If alternatives were rejected, then IMO they were probably rejected to avoid crashing into densely populated areas and minimising any loss of life or collateral damage.

I look forward to the NTSB report and no doubt the ensuing episode of Air Crash Investigation explaining what happened.
