Just looking for some opinions on this topic. I fly out of North Jersey and like to fly the Hudson River corridor (right in my back yard). I won't make the flight in the Winter, or any time the water is below about 55 degrees. I think it is safe to say that if you lose an engine in the corridor, you are ditching.
My problem is I hear other pilots and friends plan these flights regardless of the time of year, and I just don't understand why they don't seem to be concerned. I guess this could be simply another case like choosing to go VFR on top, or making a flight at night.
Just looking for some feedback.
Thanks.
