So why should we even believe anything you say here? Or that you actually left?

How do we know this AMA isnt part of an Op?

Wow, that's an amazingly vivid description of the events, thank you for that.

Now my follow up question - I'm a regular traveller, and every time I fly I go through the "What if" scenario of a plane going down. I get the chills, goosebumps and fantasize about how I'd get out.

My question for you (assuming you do the same), is how similar the experience actually was to your "imagined" disaster, than what actually happened?

Also, during the events, does your brain go "ah fuck were dead...hope for the best?" or does it go "No, no way I can die, I'll get out of this!" and if it is the latter, how fucking stoked were you when you realized you had survived?

What an amazing story...by the way, have you ever watched the recreations online of the flight with the cockpit recording? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLFZTzR5u84

"He lost both engines"

"Which engines"

"Both of em"

"...got it."

...

"...what do you need to land?"

...

"...we're gonna be in the hudson"

I can't imagine being in that plane, how do those recordings make you feel?

How much confidence do you have in the flight control/pilot/crews?

How did the crew react during the incident?

Have you flown since then?

Thanks for the insight. Your perspective is rare, luck as f #%^ and fascinating!

I love how this comment relays the frustration that exists in your workplace (as well as any workplace), I don't know how many times I've said, "with our mission, you would think...!"

So my question is - what is management like? What is discipline like? What are some interpersonal issues you've witnessed and where do they usually stem from?

What are the promotion opportunities?

Thanks! :)
