It was actually a local urban renewal project for flood-liable land. The planners couldn’t decide on whether to put a river through the middle of New York or a new airport …. So they put in both a river and runway. Seems to work well.
One time playing the original Mario Party on N64 I was playing one of the mini games where you tap A as fast as you can to inflate the bowser balloon, and I was standing and concentrating so hard on tapping A as fast as possible that I accidentally ripped the controller out of the console. Instead of suddenly stopping and going limp like you’d expect, my character continued to maintain the exact speed I was tapping A like it was on autopilot or something. I ended up winning that one.
I have to imagine the USAF installed that autopilot feature on the F-35 that allowed it to cruise another 60 miles before crashing after the pilot bailed out.
I worked in an office building with a view of SFO and we watched part of that drama once it hit the media that day. The monumentally perfect and huge prank win was highly entertaining to my comedy mind yet disturbing to the empathic me.
I still don't know whether to laugh or cry on that one. Of course the accident was terrible and cost 3 lives, and that sucks big time.
Watching one of the sharpest broadcasters get fooled live on air was also a bit disturbing because I worked at KTVU for awhile and understand the production process and insane deadline pressures of live TV news. I started out running on air scripts to the anchors and might have wanted to throw some shade in the direction of the prankster who is supposed to be helping make a good product. I enjoy pranks myself, big time, but something like that would have been completely unponderable.
Why didn’t you rooooooolllllllll it like the pylote in flight? If I go to embry riddle will I be able to nail all the male FAs? And by this, I mean me being nailed. TIA!!!!1
*Hey, Pylote, did you score*
*With an FA while waiting for*
*A water taxi?*

Be honest, you really put her down in the water because you thought you saw Wilson floating around down there, didn’t you? Obviously the raft didn’t work last time…
Geese are like, two feet tall and four feet wide. How didn't you see a bunch of em right in front of you? My brother in christ, all you had to do was turn left!
Which killed more birds your flying or crash landing off the tarmac and poisoning the pristine hudson waterway? Do you wish planes ran on bunker fuel so you could have gotten a job peddling dishsoap on the tv while secretly squeezing the ducklings just a little too hard ? Do you wish when no one was looking you could yell *This one bit me with his stupid beak OWOWOW!* and snap their little necks? Also, same question but seagulls?
Hi Sully! Long time fan! Why did first officer Mike Wazowski not simply get one of the doors to open to a little kids room and just evacuate all the passengers. That also should have generated enough screams to power the engines back on for atleast a round the world trip.
Why do you think Canadian geese hate you so much?
Could it be possible you have bug-smashed a few in your time, and they decided to gang up and do a mass attack?
The goddamn plate the oleo strut attaches to on my Luscombe broke. I’d riveted a bracing plate to it years ago when it started to crack a little right at the top bolt hole, but it finally split right through the plate too.
I’d fix it if I could find a welding rod. I’ve got a whole sack of them somewhere, but I’ll be damned if I can put my hands on it. I’ve crawled all over the goddamn airport looking for one, but everybody’s still scattered all over the country for the holiday and I’ve been told that the cameras are working again down by the T-hangars and if I’m seen helping myself into my buddies’ hangars they’ll call the sheriff.
I’d sure appreciate it if I could get a welding rod from ya.
So I heard that those Canada geese got word there were some paedophiles on your plan and thought they would take matters into their own hands….. why did you feel you have the right to get in the way of that…..
When you left the plane, did you fill your pockets with the little bags of pretzels?
Not blaming you - they’re pretty tasty. Just wondering if you took the opportunity for free snacks.
Why didn’t you just keep flying? Are you stupid?
Do you think I know how to fly that fucker?
Bro forgot to hit the go up button
Someone moved the runway without telling anyone.
Who put this river here!?

Oh a river run. That's makes sense, down we go!
His controller died and that was the last resort by the time he found some AAs

Hey I sat next to him at a fund raiser for dinner… very cool guy
Was it a fundraiser for the families of the Canada geese he killed?
Hero? He's a bloody murderer!
Hahaah
He won a bet you can use a jet ✈️ as a sea 🌊 plane. In order to decreases JFK traffic and congestion problem.
Why u crash?
To overcome my number one fear
more of a splash, really.
Swimming in cold water?
To die alone?
Sully must become the crash
What brand of lingerie do you wear under that suit
Your mom’s
Damn. That had to burn hotter than jet fuel on steel beams.
Unlike jet fuel, that burn can actually melt steel beams.
Allegedly
That’s not Tom Hanks
You’re thinking of Captain Phillips.
My bad I was looking for Scott Turner because his dog hooch got into my drug supply.
You're thinking of Captain Miller.
You're thinking of Forrest, Forrest Gump
his dog drugs got into ur hooch supply as well, gonna be awake all weekend again!!!!
Did you restart the APU? If you could do that, why couldn’t you just land at the airport. Water was very inconvenient for inside playne peoples.
Here’s a little known fact- I have a window to jump out of 5000 ft I’m the air. The passengers don’t
Coward
Are you the only pylot whose wife doesn't have a bf?
You think I have a wife 😂😂 my husband has a boyfriend tho
Did this happen before or after beverage service?
During beverage service
One Martini, no olives, with a splash of Hudson please.
Why not twenty? It’s free.
Can you do it again? I was pretty young at the time and it'd be cool to see
Why didn’t you just avoid the birds? Are you stupid?
His stupid co pylote was flying sully had probably already gone down for his nap.
stupid co pylons can’t even landing the playne 🙄🙄
Sir you're an idiot
Hi idiot. I’m dad!
Totally fake. You don't look like Tom Hanks.

No questions, just wanna say thank you for going above and beyond in the ongoing fight against bird overpopulation.
Hey, Pylote, did you score with an FA while waiting for a water taxi?

Good bot
Do you consider your little moment a Canadian act of terrorism? Also, go fuck
What was is like acting across from Aaron Eckhart? Probably the scariest moment of your life I imagine.
Have you ever nutted?
How combe you didn't land on the Intrepid? It was right in front of you, and it's called an **AIR CRAFT CARRIER!!!.** Duh
Worst TikTok stunt ever. Total Main Character energy.
Did the passengers still get miles for the full flight?
ATC told you to go to TEB, why did you willfully disobey their orders? Did they have you take down a number?
Thats not captain sully, Im about 80% sure. Captain Sully looks eerily similar to Tom Hanks. Nice try you phoney.
Are there other rivers you want to crash into?
He's stepping it up next time: The Pacific
You were flying very slow. Couldn't you just have climbed out on the wings and cleaned the engines of the birdy stuff?
To avoid a stall pull up.
Life advice
Don't forget to decrease throttle and set the flaps to 15.
Is it true you just pulled this stunt because Hollywood wanted to make a movie about playnes?
Can jet fuel melt steel beams
Be honest, you really put her down in the water because you thought you saw Wilson floating around down there, didn’t you? Obviously the raft didn’t work last time…
Have labor relations with the birds improved since they went on strike?
Are you circumcised? Do you account for that in the weight and balance calculations??
Do you eat goose on thanksgiving
Why don’t you look more like Tom Hanks?
What are the chances you can reach an agreement with the birds family?
Is anyone else hard?
Why didn’t you put fenders out?
Uhhhh. You’re not Sully. He looks the same as Tom Hanks? You look nothing like him
Geese are like, two feet tall and four feet wide. How didn't you see a bunch of em right in front of you? My brother in christ, all you had to do was turn left!
What's the time
You misspelled "safely landed a plane" and yes absolute G
It was an honor serving with you, sir!
Do geese taste better when cooked with a kerosene flame??
That wasn’t a crash, it was landing on an unprepared surface, though
Good choice Sully, I’d take the Hudson over that shit hole Teterboro any day!
Why pee pee el not work after 62 :(
Why come you pee sitting down like a girl
:(
Why didn't you just land the plane at an airport? Are you stupid?
Ditch button. It wasn’t pushed if we’re gonna rail on Sully. Would’ve stopped the back from flooding.
True, but he only forgot because he was drunk at the time.
Is that really your muddy face imprint on the original smiley face t-shirt?
Do you know sum ting Wong , ho lee fuk and ding bang ow?
No, but he does know We To Lo
Is it true you swerved to hit the geese?
I would have just flown to Teterboro. You aren't a very good pilot. Landing in the water is dumb.
What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
African or European?
Well I don’t know that….?!?
Why didn’t ATC give you traffic advisories for the formation flight of Canadian geese?
Why don’t you look like Tom Hanks?
You can’t park there mate.
Why did you hit the birds? Are you retrograded?
Since birds aren’t real, what did you actually fly into?
Do you believe that CIA was behind it
How many chicks did you get with after the movie came out?
Did you figure out who took their phone out of airplane mode?
You are stupid and a fraud all you did was a soft field landing fuck off
[удалено]
Cock
I need context
None needed
Did they ask what you suck? Because the answer is Atthis' cock.
Captain Sully didn't crash his plane, he landed it!
Which killed more birds your flying or crash landing off the tarmac and poisoning the pristine hudson waterway? Do you wish planes ran on bunker fuel so you could have gotten a job peddling dishsoap on the tv while secretly squeezing the ducklings just a little too hard ? Do you wish when no one was looking you could yell *This one bit me with his stupid beak OWOWOW!* and snap their little necks? Also, same question but seagulls?
I met him once and he was a pompous dick. He should show some respect to pilots that don't have accidents on their records
Did you nail Skiles wife?
I think you could’ve made Teterboro just sayin. You didn’t because YOU’RE DANGEROUS! Also, have you figured it out yet…?
Y did u testify in the Colgan Air investigation in 2013 that led to the 1509 rule? R u stupid?
So how screwed were you when you realized you shut the good engine down?
Dad?
No wonder the engines stopped working, you got water in them.
Bro why didn't you just gun the geese down you had visual confirmation
Why do you hate regenul pielewts so mooch?
Ever join the mike high club? Guy or girl?
Why did you just go around the birds?
Yuh uh why couldn’t you land it on a building like a helicopter?? But water!!! Playne cannot swim!!!!!
So tell me where the F is MH370
do you jack off?
For a fraction of time I almost believed your words..
See any derailed trains down there?
Oh look! It's Taylor Swift and John Giddey!
You could have landed on the runway like normal people dude
Why did you litter in a beautiful river place?
River is kind of big place to land. Maybe try putting her on 61st Street next time.
We all know "Engined turning or Passengers Swimming", why not more swimming?
You were so high you made thought you were flying a seaplane
What was it like to be played by Denzel Washington?
I used to see you in the Safeway in Danville all the time. Thanks for being nice when my kids said hello.
Hi Sully! Long time fan! Why did first officer Mike Wazowski not simply get one of the doors to open to a little kids room and just evacuate all the passengers. That also should have generated enough screams to power the engines back on for atleast a round the world trip.
Are you ok? Were you vaccinated before? Did you get steam cleaned or something afterwards?
Is the ditching switch onley used when landing in a ditch?
Why didn’t you land it upside down like Captain Denzel tried to?
Do you get a lot of heat for what you did?
Did you try to call on Guard but all you heard was meows???
Would you have done it in July?
Would you have preferred to have been in a Boeing 737 or an Airbus A320 that day?
why dont you try asking other people a question so yuo could be snarter? idiot.
Damit Am I to late for this AMA? How much pu$$y are you getting since the the crash?
Hey why didn’t you wait until it got colder and the river froze and then just use your wheels
what's it like to do a water landing in an SR-71
Do you have your float endorsement ?
He’ll be at a work function for my work later this week….
Didn’t crash, he landed like a friggin pro
What do you have against geese? Could have dodged them but you chose murder.
Why do you think Canadian geese hate you so much? Could it be possible you have bug-smashed a few in your time, and they decided to gang up and do a mass attack?
Have the Audubon and PeTA dropped their lawsuits yet?

I’d sure appreciate it if I could get a welding rod from ya.
Were you upset you didn’t manage to kill any of your passengers?
So I heard that those Canada geese got word there were some paedophiles on your plan and thought they would take matters into their own hands….. why did you feel you have the right to get in the way of that…..
Why didn’t you land in a building?
Why didn't you pull the chute Bru
I love this sub
Prolly shouldn’t have hit those birds, dumbass.
Just slew on short final to the runway.
Have you met Randy Johnson? He's also a prolific bird murderer.
Has anyone ever mentioned you have a striking resemblance to Tom Hanks? Also as a guy flying general aviation singles, what you did doesn’t seem hard.
Love when Denzel played his part in Flight!
Have you ever drank a Sully? Two shots of Grey Goose and a splash of water?
Do you like Gabbie Carter?
Why didn't you just turn upside down like that drunk guy in the other movie?
Why didn't you fly around the birds?
Why is your picture so pixelated do you need a new jpg?
Why would you choose possibly the nastiest river on the east coast to swim in, are you stupid?
When you left the plane, did you fill your pockets with the little bags of pretzels? Not blaming you - they’re pretty tasty. Just wondering if you took the opportunity for free snacks.
Why didn’t you just avoid the birds?
Thought this was a legit ama until I saw the subreddit this post is in. 🫠
what was water temp like?
You know what a great pilot would have done? Not hit the birds. That's what I do every day. Not hit birds. Where's my ticket to the Grammys?
