Patrick Harten information

Patrick Harten is an American Air Traffic Controller who guided US Airways Flight 1549 to its successful ditching in the Hudson River.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]

Harten was controlling arrivals and departures at New York's LaGuardia Airport on the day of the accident and was the only controller to have contact with the aircraft during the emergency sequence.^[5]^[6]^[7] Despite offering the flight crew multiple runways at LaGuardia as well as options to land at Teterboro and Newark airports, Harten was also the first to know the Airbus A320 would ditch in the water. He did not learn that everyone had survived until an hour after the accident.^[8]^[9]^[10]

Harten spent years of his career prior to flight 1549 working in the New York area. He worked Newark traffic before being moved to LaGuardia departure.^[11]

Harten has openly discussed the mental anguish he experienced during and after the ordeal. He suffered from post-traumatic stress for months after the accident and sought therapy.^[8]^[12]^[13]^[14]

Harten has been an Air Traffic Controller since at least 2004. His father was an air traffic controller as well.^[15]^[16]
