Description
This is a recreation of the Hudson River emergency water landing by US Airways Flight 1549 on January 15, 2009 (link).
There is one landing challenge for Asobo A320, and one for FlyByWire A320, the title of the later begins with "FBW..."
Some hints:
The landing detection area is limited, see where the line ends at loading page, do not touch down much earlier than this.
After start, keep climbing, or else you will not have enough altitude to make it there (the accident flight passed 3200ft).
You might not be able to achieve a high score, due to high touch down speed of the nose.
This landing challenge contains a scenery runway object in the Hudson, remove the folder from comunity to have it gone.
V2 adds the identical landing challenge for FBW A320, tested with current dev version.
Known issues for FBW A320 Develop (the only vers i test):
- Displays are in selftest, engines not at full thrust right after start .Reengage throttle and authothrottle to fix this, displays come back after a few seconds
Last tested with FBW Develop 8cc7d5f on 04/27
Many thanks to DonDone and BuffyGC for helping me with my first steps into scenery editing!

This looks amazing! Just wondering if you could do a Fenix version of this! Also does this just cut off your engines at the right altitude?

it should not be too dificult to replace one with the other plane. one would have to experiment some with the simvars that define systems state, and then replace the aircraft name in the flt file... but i can not do this since i dont have that plane. i can help if anyone is interested to do that

I downloaded the livery and the landing challenge, extracted both, and put them in my community folder, but it is only showing up in my content manager, and not in the "Epic" landing challenges menu. Could anyone tell me what I did wrong? Thanks.

since last major update the custom (i.e. not official) landing challenges are unter activities -> custom content (scroll to the right).
if you have some other content that is sorted into that category, the landing challenges might be at the bottom of that list, with the subtitle "Attempt a perfect landing in trying conditions at a wide range of airports"

So is it SU5 compatible? Would love to download this mod but just want confirmation first. :)

I once worked with Sully. He was one of the best pilots that I ever flew with.

Somehow this turned into a joke - it's not funny.... Neither is the situation this simulates. If you've ever had to make an emergency landing of any kind or declare a emergency, you wouldn't be so foolish. Grow up!

In addition to what @b4gunner said, the Airbusses have sidesticks, not yokes.
