Pilot skill and luck made the outcome a hell of a lot better than the crash that occurred on the Potomac ten or so years ago....folks died in the ice filled river.
Leading evidence: 'worst landing i have ever experienced' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'worst landing i have ever experienced' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Fill river' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Suspected cause
Residential neighborhoods are probably the only areas that typically don't have cameras around.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

My brother in law was the first ferry boat on the scene...he offered his coat and gloves to someone and had to ferry back to the city. He was stranded in the city for hours before he could get back home to NJ (5 min from the ferry terminal). He also was a bit shakened up (cant imagine how the passengers on the plane felt)... its not everyday you get a water landing unannounced.
Great rescue effort by everyone...Im glad he and everyone on that plane made out fine.
What a great outcome for the passengers on the plane. Nice to have a brother who saw 1st hand what was going on, and to be a help with his coat and gloves.
Amazing pictures and your brother is one of the heroes yesterday. Its a relief to see that those rafts do work!!
I think we will see some of those lifevests for sale soon on a New York City street corner.
This is where having a skilled pilot makes the difference between a 'ditching' and a disaster. If you go back in history you find very few times where a pilot elects to do a water ditching. Most keep hoping for the best, i.e., a clear runway nearby, but then run out of time. This guy made the right call quickly and handled it perfectly. My hat's off to your b-i-l for being on top of things to round out this 'miracle.' (They stated later on the national news that had he set it down in another section of the Hudson the boats would have been a good 15-20 minutes away from a response.) Luck.
No doubt, skill and timing averted a major disaster. It is amazing at how delicate the blades on those jet engines are. All it takes is a bird or two and the engine is in flames.
Pilot skill and luck made the outcome a hell of a lot better than the crash that occurred on the Potomac ten or so years ago....folks died in the ice filled river. God (or your particular equivalent) was the copilot.
Here's a link to video of the landing.

Like others I had never taken a water (or any) crash landing seriously, this showed that it can happen with positive results.
Seriously, if you're in a reasonably populated area take a look around you and you'll see cameras everywhere - everything from ATMS (which have continuous footage) to security surveillance cameras. Residential neighborhoods are probably the only areas that typically don't have cameras around.
Im really impressed with that landing, Ive been on landings where... the landing is so smooth, and Im thinking... yep he nailed it, This guy def nailed it
There are many landings Ive been to... and Im thinking, WTF... rookies!
I sent the link to my Father. He has been a pilot and flight instructor here in Seattle for the last 40 or so years. He has many ratings and a line of excellent pilots that credit their skills to his teachings. This is his reply:
Thanks for the video, I haven't seen this before. I would say that was a text book landing. A float plane type landing, just right..
DAD
Though we all knew that, I thought I would share his input.
has anybody ever seen the movie "final destiny" I think they made 3.....the people on this plane are the luckiest in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD!!! I mean seriously what are the chances that the plane doesn't break into pieces on impact...
that pilot has the magic touch!!
Yeah, they were damned lucky and he is a really good pilot.
Knowing that everyone survived and that it had a positive outcome it's an experience that I would loved to have had (weird I know) - not many people get to go through that kind of experience and live to tell about it.
They pulled the plane out of the water last night, so here's the video of that also:

A few years back, I was on a flight where the landing was extremely hard and we bounced a few times. It was the worst landing I have ever experienced.
The pilot and co-pilot were near the exit door as we were exiting the plane. On the way out, this little old gray haired lady in front of me stopped and turned to face the pilot and said something to the effect of "The next time you plan on crash landing a plane, let the passengers know first, OK?" Then she abruptly turned and walked out of the plane. I was still laughing as I walked past the pilot.
Yeah, I think we can all empathize with these people considering how often we end up with really hard landings.
My closest brush with something like this was on Sept 4th 2001. I flew from Boston to LA on a trip that I took every couple of weeks for business purposes. The flight was American Airlines flight 11 and the pilot was John Ogonowski. Noone could know that the same flight and the same pilot would have such a tragic accident the following week.
I actually was on a plane once that had to return to the tarmac after taking off....we circled for about 45 minuted to get ride of fuel before landing....something was wrong with the landing gear it didn't want to fold.....guess is better than when it doesn't want to come out!
