Perhaps CL300 was a consummate A330 pilot who knew instinctively to hit the " Ditching Switch " once taking a drink in the Hudson was inevitable. The ditching switch thingy is a thing drilled into guys who takes off or lands across water so much so it becomes a recall action...this had been done since the A330 came into operation at our backwaters around Borneo in the mid 90s.
Sully did a super great job...but some drills were also missed. Can't go around singing praises, burping butterflies and farting rainbows without having a balanced look at that heroic episode.
