He landed a plane on water.  Kind of impressive, but not THIS kind of impressive:

Warthog Pilot Lands With No Canopy, Landing Gear

I would disagree.   Glide Landing an A320 on water is likely substantially more challenging than doing a powered landing with A-10 wheels up on a runway.

For one thing, straight wing, mechanical controlled, A-10, designed for low altitude interdiction, is likely to have much more docile low speed, low altitude handling the the FBW, swept wing A320 optimized for high subsonic flight at 35,000 feet.

For another, a passenger jet with two engines hanging under the wings is amongst the worst possible comfiguration for water landing.  The A-10 was purpose designed to be able to do a wheels up landing on land.  It’s under carriage protrudes outside the housing even in the retracted position so it can roll on its wheels even when landing wheels up.

For a third, the A320 was out of power and gliding.  There was no second shot.   Get it right or die.
