Ive worked with both F/As on that flight. I found them both to be very competent. Since I wasnt there I dont know the full details of how much time they were given or how the instructions were delivered from the FD to the F/As. I have flown with both pilots before too.
Believe it or not but a planned land emergency is harder to cope with than say what happened in SFO. I got complaints from my planned emergency and its shocking to see what people complain about in that situation too.... One was they didnt get a refill on their water...
