I'm not sure if it's the same animation, but here's a very well-done rendering, complete with ATC.

I'm still surprised that, apart from one CCTV clip, no actual footage of the ditching has emerged.

You are not the only one. Full of tourists and no one with a camera :-? For example, the Empire State building, not a single person with a video camera notices an Air Bus at eye level descending towards the river :-?
Mind you, Britney Spears flashes her muff to the world getting out of a car and it is headline news so we should not really be that surprised.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
