From the perspective of a civil aviation person, a brief analysis of the classic film "Captain Sully"

Produced by Warner Bros., the film "Sully" is based on a true story, and was only nominated for Best Sound Editing at the 89th Academy Awards, not counting the winning blockbuster, starring Tom Hanks, who won the 20th American Film Institute Award for Actor of the Year, and his past achievements are incomparable, and there are two reasons for choosing this film to share with everyone: First, Tom Hanks (tom Hanks) is my most admired film actor, his character modeling, his professionalism is the bright star of today's film industry; second, I myself stepped into the society from the campus, has been working for the airline, those pilots, flight attendants, safety officers, transportation control personnel and various functional support personnel, are so familiar, kind, some are friends, those thrilling successful handling, and even difficult accidents have been around.

On January 15, 2009, Captain Chesley Schulenberg flew American Airlines Flight 1549, which was hit by a bird strike 2 minutes after takeoff, resulting in a double-engine stall, and after judging that it was impossible to return and force the landing at the nearest airport, the captain decided to force a landing on the Hudson River, because of the available resources, only the Hudson River was long enough, flat enough, and wide enough.

The story of the film begins here.

Captain Sally successfully forced a forced landing on the Hudson River, and after confirming that the 150 passengers and 5 crew members on board had been safely evacuated, it was difficult to hide his excitement, and then reported to his family that he was safe.

As an airline employee, I was well aware of the safety responsibilities and pressures that the captain had, so I understood his excitement at the time.

Subsequently, according to the investigation procedures of the National Transportation Safety Board, Captain Sally and the co-pilot went through a difficult journey, and they needed to prove that only a forced landing on the Hudson River was the best solution, because human lives were at stake, because no forced landing river in history had succeeded. But, Captain Sally said, there is always a first time in everything.

Under extreme stress, Captain Sally had some physical reactions: nightmares, inattention, anxiety. He relieves stress by running and manages his emotions well, cooperating with investigations. The question centers on whether simulations of computational data and human disposition are equivalent. After giving the captain a decision time of 35 seconds, the results were completely different, and a forced landing on the Hudson River was the only feasible option to rescue the crew on board.

In the film, Sally's words to him when she first learned to fly had a great impact on his flying career, and the instructor said: Any time you fly a good airplane, there is one more important thing, to laugh often.

On May 14, 2018, Sichuan Airlines flight 3u8633 was suddenly broken by the front windshield at an altitude of 10,000 meters, the cockpit lost pressure instantaneously, the temperature plummeted to minus 40 degrees Celsius, the instrument failed, and the ground tower lost contact, in such a crisis, captain Liu Chuanjian responded decisively and wrote a 34-minute "epic diversion" book. This legend was also made into the movie "Captain China".

He Chao, the "heroic captain" of China Eastern Airlines, flew flight MU5643 on October 11, 2016, and in the process of performing the take-off mission at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, he calmly judged and dealt with it decisively, successfully avoiding a two-plane runway conflict incident with the risk of collision.

One by one, the heroic captains defend the aviation industry and the safety of passengers with their exquisite technology, firm professionalism and strong psychological quality. Hats off to these captains!
