Quotes
Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger:
This is the captain. Brace for impact.
Goofs
In a couple long distance shots of Manhattan, the completed One World Trade Center is seen. In January 2009 One World Trade Center was early in construction and only about 100 feet into the air.
Crazy Credits
Photos of the real plane and rescue are shown during the credits. They are followed by a brief video with real people from that day including the passengers and Captain Sullenburger.
Alternate Versions
The film's IMAX release presented the film open-matte, at an aspect ratio of 1.90:1, meaning there was more picture information visible in the top and bottom of the frame than in normal theaters and on home video.
