What fantastic role models for our industry are these guys!!
The crew on the Hudson did a fantastic job and I reckon these boys just about take number one spot as much bigger beast and on runway just like normal landing.
Now you are going too far. This LOT crew carried out a text book non normal landing and assisted by cabin crew doing their job very well too. Kudos to them all.
However, this incident is in no way comparable to the Hudson A320 ditching-not even close. The LOT crew, as far as we are aware at this time, had an aeroplane with malfunctioning landing gear but was otherwise serviceable. The A320 crew had no thrust and so very very limited control of their flight path.
I would not detract one iota from the LOT crew's skills and teamwork in achieving a great success but please let's keep things in perspective.
