English: US Airways Flight 1549. Flightpath flown (red). Alternative trajectories to Teterboro (blue) and back toward La Guardia (purple) were simulated for the investigation. This reference states:
But the real world reaction time is known: the reaction that the 1549 crew actually flew. And with the turn to the south that they actually did on the day of the incident, La Guardia was within glide distance (purple path, lower fork). "What's over to our right? Anything in New Jersey? Maybe Teterboro?" But this question was not initiated until near the 3:29pm marker (8 seconds prior). As can be seen on the map, by this time the aircraft was nearly abeam Teterboro Rwy 24 and could no longer land there. (See reconstructed video.)
