could compromise his ability to react correctly in an emergency?
Ok, please tell us exactly how he did not react correctly.

Here's what we can establish from the video footage and the radio transmissions:

1. Aircraft lost power
2. Aircraft made a SUCCESSFUL landing on the field
3. Occupants walked away with no injury or injury to anyone else.

That's all. Nothing else.

I'll ask again - how EXACTLY did he not react correctly?

Whether it "looked pretty", whether anyone else would have done it differently or whether anyone else could have done it better is not the issue neither is whether it stalled or could have sustained damage. He put the aircraft sucessfully back on the ground in the least worst place.
Please, tell me exactly how you would have achieved a "BETTER outcome"
