据美联社报道:
The pilot twice told air controllers that he was unable to make the proper turn after reporting a "double bird strike."
The tower believed Sullenberger meant that both his jet engines had been damaged by bird impacts.
从这段文字中可以看出:机长并没有报告过发动机损毁。
如果这是相关内容的全部,就产生了两个问题:
1. 机长为什么不报告发动机的运行情况?
2. 塔台为什么不跟踪询问发动机的运行情况,而凭猜测作决定?
