Jeff NielsenHOST
Well, he says, Hello, crew.
Jeff NielsenHOST
I was looking at photos of the emergency landing of U.S. Airways Flight 1549 in the Hudson River, the miracle on the Hudson.
Jeff NielsenHOST
and noticed that the passengers standing on the wings were not wearing life jackets.
Jeff NielsenHOST
Given that a water landing was anticipated, I would assume that life vests would be routinely deployed.

Herman PoppleberryHOST
I asked, why has the recent hijacking attempt on a Dubai to Tel Aviv flight become such a magnet for claims it was staged or fake? And why does this aviation miracle provoke disbelief when something like the miracle on the Hudson was widely accepted as real?
KornHOST
The rescue sounds extraordinary to me.
KornHOST
The certainty that it was fake sounds stranger.
KornHOST
You can understand someone questioning a confused early report.
KornHOST
Declaring that the entire event is a production takes a rather larger leap.
KornHOST
Hannah's comparison is the miracle on the Hudson.
KornHOST
Another extraordinary survival story.
EmmetHOST
If engine ingestion is suspected, limit reverse thrust on landing to the amount needed to stop on the runway.
EmmetHOST
Ryanair also made some changes to their simulator training in response to this accident, and in response to similar low-altitude accidents at the time, like the British Airways 777 on short final at London Heathrow in 2008, and US Airways Flight 1549's ditching in the Hudson River that year.
EmmetHOST
Three simulated scenarios were included in this training, and to replicate real-world conditions and maximise the startle effect, pilots were given minimal briefing of the events beforehand.
EmmetHOST
The scenarios were as follows.
John LennoxSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Tonight, the 15th of January, brings back memories for many people in North America.
John LennoxSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It was on this day last year that Flight 1549 took off from New York, and 90 seconds later landed in the Hudson River.
John LennoxSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
One year on, 100,000 people have perished at least in the last 48 hours in Port-au-Prince and in the rest of the tiny island of Haiti.
John LennoxSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Life throws its complications at us, and I suppose the problem that's created by the earthquake at Haiti is the hardest problem that as Christians we face.
Dave SandersonGUEST
Well, well, thank you.
Dave SandersonGUEST
Yes, it's, uh, this whole, whole thing happened after Miracle on the Hudson.
Dave SandersonGUEST
Speaking was the first way that I could actually get the message out of not only what happened that day, but what's, how do you grow from an experience such as a, a traumatic, a, uh, plane crash.
Dave SandersonGUEST
Uh, so speaking was actually the first avenue, Tom.
Dave SandersonGUEST
Thank you for asking.
Dave SandersonGUEST
I don't talk about this much.
Dave SandersonGUEST
Um, but it actually happened about 10 days after the Miracle on the Hudson when I...
Dave SandersonGUEST
That Sunday after the Miracle on the Hudson.
Dick RichardsonGUEST
For me, I mean, it was a tough call because there's been a lot of experiences.
Dick RichardsonGUEST
But the one I think that would be most interesting to your audience is the Flight 1549, commonly known as the Miracle on the Hudson.
Dick RichardsonGUEST
And that was a very dramatic thing.
Dick RichardsonGUEST
So that's an easy one to talk about.
ChrisHOST
Ooh, that would be the Marshall Plan.
ChrisHOST
Niecy, what movie brings the real-life near-disaster and aftermath of U.S. Airways Flight 1549 to the big screen?
speaker_2UNKNOWN
Oh, was that called Sully?
ChrisHOST
That was called Sully.
Damon LembiHOST
But certainty doesn't mean waiting for all the answers.
Damon LembiHOST
Dave Sanderson was the last passenger off Flight 1549, the Miracle on the Hudson.
Damon LembiHOST
He had just seconds to figure out how to survive.
Damon LembiHOST
And when the pressure is on, what you don't know is only half the problem.
Damon LembiHOST
I'm Damon Lemley, and this is the Learn It All podcast.
Damon LembiHOST
Today you'll learn three things to help keep your head even when everything goes sideways, the exact amount of information you need before making a call, and why people will follow a leader who may be wrong.
Damon LembiHOST
So Dave, 155 people boarded Flight 1549, and within six minutes you all had to work together as one team in order to survive, which became the Miracle on the Hudson.
Damon LembiHOST
What happened on that plane that allowed 155 strangers to work together in a way that most leadership teams struggle with every day?
speaker_3HOST
Yes.
speaker_2HOST
So US Airways Flight 1549 takes off from LaGuardia in New York.
speaker_3HOST

speaker_2HOST
