Simply manage to not crash an airliner, which your fucking job, and you are a “hero”? Would the average, non-hero pilot have been expected to say “ah fuck it” after losing one engine and parachute out the door? Or is this really just political correctness since we called Sully a “hero” and she is a woman.

Sully performed a much more impressive feat than simply landing a plane on a runway. Oooooo what amazing skill this woman had! Sully was just doing his job, but he actually did put himself in danger since by landing in water there’s is a good chance the cockpit will get torn under the plane and shredded to pieces.

“A twin engine plane can fly perfectly well on one engine. In fact it can even take-off and land with just one engine. Losing an engine in flight is not a particularly serious problem, the pilots are trained to fly the aircraft should an engine fail. If an engine did fail in flight, the pilots would carry out a number of checklists to ensure the engine is secure and safe, and then as a precaution, land at a nearby suitable airport – unfortunately this is unlikely to be your destination!”

The 737-700 is ETOPS rated, so it can maintain altitude for hours with just a single engine. They're allowed to fly anywhere within 3 hours of single engine flight time from an alternate airport.

It's probably more about her composure and maintaining protocol and sticking to her training that makes this a feel good story.

I don't see the animosity towards her with this. Call her a hero or a good pilot.

She did her job.

You have to have a certain set of skills to do what she did and most of us don't have that.

End of story.

Again, I don't disagree. The issue I have is the (((media))) running this story ragged when she did exactly what every other licensed ATP in the US would do. They don't even bother mentioning her co-pilot or the FAs who had just as much of a role in the outcome as she did. In fact, CRM means that the co-pilot probably did more of the actual flying of the plane than she did!

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing. I'm just saying that this pilot kept herself calm and collected.

Why freak out because it was a woman?

Why do you have to react negatively because she's getting more attention than a male pilot that may or may not have done the same thing with proper training?

So what to all of it.
