US Airways Flight 1549 ditching and evacuation Captain Sully asked controllers for landing options in New Jersey, mentioning Teterboro Airport. Permission was given for Teterboro’s Runway 1. Sully initially responded “YES”, but then: “We can’t do it...we’re gonna be in the Hudson”. Captain Sully commanded over the cabin address system to “brace for impact” and flight attendants relayed the command to passengers. Meanwhile, air traffic controllers asked the Coast Guard to caution vessels in the Hudson and ask them to prepare to help with the rescue. About 90 seconds later, the plane made an unpowered ditching, descending into the middle of the North River section of the Hudson tidal estuary. Flight attendants compared the ditching to a “hard landing” with “one impact, no bounce, then a gradual deceleration”. Sully opened the cockpit door and gave the order to evacuate. The crew began evacuating the passengers through the four overwing window exits and into an inflatable slide/raft deployed from the front right passenger door. The evacuation was made more difficult by the fact that someone opened the rear left door, allowing more water to enter the plane. Water was also entering through a hole in the fuselage and through cargo doors that had come open. Finally, Sully walked the cabin twice to confirm it was empty.
