If I may, I ask for help/information on how much the movie covers

Preface. I have not seen it and live outside the United States of America.

Q1. How much of the movie (minutes or % etc.) is taken up with the emergency landing?

Q2. Does the movie explore the financial burden placed on new aviation graduates?

Thank-you in advance for any assistance provided.

Q1: Total of maybe 15 to 20 minutes of the actual cause of the crash to the rescue. Rest is more of the investigation and such.

Q2: No, none at all.

Why would you think Q2 is even relevant here?

SrEditor,

Going by your username, I am taking it that you are a Senior Editor of IMdB. Correct me if I am wrong in this regard.

The basic answer to your question is that I want to know what is covered in the movie. A more involved answer to your question is that I understand Mr. Sullenberger testified before the U.S.A. Congress on the issue of student debt for aviation undergraduates and graduates. Returning to the basics, I wish to make as informed a decision I can in deciding whether to see the movie or not.

Let me know if I have not (or have) answered your question.

Best regards,
Tom.
