This video shows the typical myth about all the pilots talk jocosely in our discussions about topics related to the aviation. I believe that against managing an engine failure in a Piper, Cessna, Boeing, Airbus etc. (PA28 / C172 / B747 / A340 ….) Any Aviator take his “Computer flight” “(In the sequence similar to an a CRP – 5) and the” Plotter ” like Hilary Swank in this movie and begins to make some calculations of a incredible a precision being close to crash maintaining a rate of descent between 15000 and 10000 feet per minute. It results me extremely funny this scene because if this is incredible for an airplane, for a Space Shuttle,obviously, much less. In any case, the “approach” is realistic.

I think someone programmed their vacation GPS map data into the shuttle instead of their car. XD
Landing the shuttle requires the pressing two buttons: one for the destination and the other for lowering the landing gear before touchdown.
Details of the landing are handled by an on-board computer with no less than four additional backup systems. Of course, button pushing is no job for a rookie.
Hey! It’s the Pike-dude from Enterprise!
Awe Sooooome!
google maps dawg
because you would have to be an idiot to believe it

That’s some mighty slow shuttle. It’d be moving a lot faster, and creating massive sonic booms.
well, let me check 411 for the closest location!!
lets head off to denny’s
Endy, sad to know that, eight two and i are tired too of the MREs back home.
tasted all 24 menus, and needs more variety.
Or maybe Lucas to redo it.
obvious, but kinda lame eh?
get spielberg to redo this and you get a movies leagues better.
I also noticed while watching the movie, take a close look at the Monitor at Houston. It shows that the Shuttle is off course anyway.
Why couldn’t the director and the filmmakers named a fictional name for the shuttle, rather than the real thing so that people won’t get concern in the future?
Whatever he just said: Not check.
*Long time no hear*
Roger on gas dispersal, lets hope the local Denny’s has enough food… all this space food gives me a sour stomach
s-turns(yes about 90 degrees both ways, angle of attaqck 40+ degrees, was not portrayed.)

i am going to hover around to blow gasses out from the rcs area.
meet ya at the local denny’s ok?!!
tab’s on me!

This scenario is not so different from decisions the US airways crew had to make before ditching in the hudson.
