This successful ditching once again shows the advantage of sailplane or glider experience to judge a no power descent to a landing. The incredible job these pilots did shows their understanding of energy management and how to make a powerless airliner get down without fatalities. Airlines don't require any training to do what they did but thank God some pilots take it upon themselves to know how to handle this situation. With all the cost cutting of management I don't see any additional training in this area but am happy some pilots take it upon themselves to know how to handle a situation like this.
