Good acting not bad writing but much left out

Rating: 8/10 (9 September 2016)

I really liked this movie but being a pilot myself I was surprised at what was left out of the movie and not mentioned. For instance the air traffic controller was removed from duty immediately and a blood and urine sample was taken or mentioned to be taken but not from the pilot and the copilot.
Also when an aircraft goes down because of two engines failing and shutting down I would think the fuel would be examined and red tagged until it was tested safe with no contamination to prevent other aircraft being fueled with the same fuel from shutting down. That also was not addressed. Why Sully nor the co pilot failed to complete and follow the ditching procedure no one ever will know but that also was not mentioned. The procedure specifies that in a water landing that a ditching button be activated.
The Airbus A320 has a "ditching" button that closes valves and openings underneath the aircraft, including the outflow valve, the air inlet for the emergency RAT, the avionics inlet, the extract valve, and the flow control valve.
It is meant to slow flooding in a water landing. The flight crew did not activate the "ditch switch" during the incident. To be fair holes were ripped in the fuselage during the ditching of the aircraft that opened huge holes that let water seep in but still proper procedure was not followed by activating the switch. No one mentioned this during the movie.
There is no doubt that both pilots acted professionally and should be commended for safely executing the water landing but it makes one wonder why after all the training and hours they received in training and in the cockpit they failed to follow proper procedure.
But then again it is said that any landing you can walk away from is considered a good one.
