Speculation ? or sour grapes ? you decide !

I have read this thread from begining to end and have enjoyed reading 90 % of the posts ..

However i found myself wondering very early on just how much longer it would take for the thread to turn sour with regards to Captain Sullenbergers & First Officer Jeff Skiles descision to ditch in the Hudson ?

We didnt have to wait very long for the sour grapes to ripen now did we !

I personally think it is very wrong to speculate what did or did not happen to Flight 1549 particurly at such an early stage in any accident investigation .

speculation =
  1. Contemplation or consideration of a subject; meditation.
  2. A conclusion, opinion, or theory reached by conjecture.
  3. Reasoning based on inconclusive evidence; conjecture or supposition

Particurly when posts on this thread are now inferring that the cockpit crews descisions where flawed ?

The " i would have done it different "
brigade and the " they where just doing their job so don't deserve any credit " need to take a chill pill 7 a deep breath because none of you have ever been put in exactly the same position as " Sully & Skiles " and it is very unlikely that you ever will !

lets wait for the full accident report guys ...casting aspersions & sour grapes dos'nt suit you so called professionals .
