The iceberg of January 15, 2009 relates to an incident on a noon when a bird's flag collided with the engine of a US Airways flight 1549, leaving both aircraft engines dead. There were 155 passengers aboard the flight. The ship's captain, Silan Burger, was told he could make a landing at one of the nearest airports, but the captain considered the situation impossible, and decided to take the ship to the Hudson River in New York. Not only did the ship land on the icy waters of Hudson but there was no casualty in the process. All 155 passengers and all crew members were safely evacuated. The incident was hampered and the captain was highly praised. Captain Sullen Burger, "Sully," has gained the status of a public hero nationwide. The National Transport and Safety Board, however, orders an inquiry into the incident and its details to be more satisfied. They want to see if the decision to land in the river was really the last resort, or the pilot's mistake or misunderstanding caused the situation. Experts use aviation, computer data and flight simulation ... all the resources are used to determine this. The captain is asked a lot of questions ... it seems that the "hero" cannot be considered a disqualification. Investigations continue with great enthusiasm, after passing through a series of patience trials that eventually lead to a flight of 35 seconds, indicating that both the computer simulator's idyllic and stress-free environments are proposed. It was not possible to reach either of the airports. Then those investigations are terminated. The main purpose of the investigation was simply that not every landing on Hudson could be so fortunate ... Choosing the "safe" route instead of luck would have to be the right decision.
