Wow did you read the story about the heroics of this wonderful pilot. Can you imagine how cold it was in the Hudson river.
I am not surprised AFA Praised the Hero Pilot In NYC Hudson River Landing
He was the man who piloted 155 people to safety in a dramatic Hudson River crash .
Passengers say Sullenberger checked twice to make sure no one was left aboard before getting out of the Airbus A320 himself. No one was killed in the crash.
“In addition to superb judgment under utmost pressure, by checking his aircraft twice to ensure there were no passengers left behind, he epitomized the ‘Service Before Self’ concept we strive to instill in our cadets,” Regni said.
His wife, Lorrie Sullenberger, told reporters that the family is a little taken aback by the attention but that her husband is “a pilot’s pilot” who “loves the art of the airplane.”
Has anyone experience anything like this before…Please go ahead and add your comments.
