I'd guess they opened them to drain the water out so it would be easier to lift out...

Too simplistic?

Outcry Over 'Hero Of Hudson' Game

Quote:

Web-users have been given the chance to become the 'Hero of the Hudson' - but some have branded the online game as "offensive".

Now a team of developers has created an online video game that lets users try their hand at his landing.

The game is set on the approach to the River Hudson, alongside New York's Manhattan Island where the plane touched down in icy waters.

Players have to keep the plane balanced at the correct incline and bring it to a smooth landing on the water.

Failing could mean putting the lives of virtual passengers at risk, as the jet crashes and sinks into the river with an ominous gurgling sound.

But the new game has had a mixed response online.

One blogger comments: "The game is about as primitive as you can get.

"Most of the comments below the game hit it on the head. It's boring, stupid and offensive."

Yet it is spreading fast across the web and has already been played by several thousand people.

In my opinion there is nothing exciting about this game and if people died it would be offensive

That game is fun for about 5 minutes, may be even less.

What a dissrespectful poor excuse of a game i hope someone forces it to be taken off the internet.

A bit strong i know but thats my feeling on it!

Fair call.. But had there been a loss of life, do you think the game would have been created?

Its disrespectful to those that were on the crash, this game basically says hey these people feared for their lives lets keep people entertained by making a game out of it.

Like i said its my opinion and that wont change!

I suppose you disagree with all those games out there like Medal Of Honour, Call of Duty, because people died in the real wars that these games are based on?:confused:

ATC audio released

Heard a little bit of the ATC on AM on 891 ABC Adelaide this morning.

Captain sounded cool under extreme pressure.
