USAIR 1549

The NTSB animation. The upper left overlays the transcript of the cockpit voice recorder. At the bottom are readouts for airspeed and altitude.



For the non-pilots, you may note that the transmissions from the airplane were both terse and very limited. Once they told LaGuardia Departure Control what they were going to do, they stopped talking to them, for there was nothing that the controllers could do for them.
