Emergency Landing on RWY 5S
 

You honestly have nothing else to do?

He cited an article to a current event involving a successful forced landing on a highway, in which all survived.

What is your concern with this?

Really? He's just like you, posting on every topic But all posters survived.

I found it interesting because when I do GA, interstates are often the least bad of several bad options for engine out.

I agree. Overpasses and wires are a concern. Otherwise, a long straight stretch is a way people in the air and on the ground can often walk away with minor or no injuries. I know of several who have done that in GA. They have all lived to tell about it, over a beer. “Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing.”

Any landing you can walk away from is a crash. Any landing where you can park where you should have parked, is a good landing. Stupid quotes from **** ups. I thought our level of proficiency was a little higher.

Preference and proficiency, yes. One does not want to be in a position where they have to ditch. But there are times mechanical or environmental failures result in a pilot having to take alternative actions. Would you denigrate Sully Sullenberger’s proficiency when he landed in the Hudson instead of back at the LGA or going to Teterboro? If you would, you would come to a conclusion directly counter to the NTSB conclusion.

My god, you're a idiot.

Did you think before you posted this drivel? You say any landing you can walk away from, is a crash? I've walked away from every landing I've ever made, including off airport forced landings that came as the result of an engine failure. None were crashes.

By your standard, as poorly worded and thought out as it could possibly be, every successful landing is a crash, when everyone walks away.

Parking where one should park is generally considered a good thing. Perhaps you missed this, early in your training.

Have you never landed off field, before?
