What would you do
if
One Hundred Fifty-One Passengers
depended on you to deliver them safely,
and
all you wanted to do was get back home to the wife and kids?
One Hell of a Pilot!
As the situation began to settle Thursday evening, the flight's pilot, Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger, emerged as a hero, with praise being heaped on him by passengers, officials and aviation experts.
"I don't think there's enough praise to go around for someone who does something like this. This is something you really can't prepare for," said former Delta pilot Denny Walsh......
"You really don't practice water landings in commercial airplanes. Just the sheer expertise he demonstrated is amazing."
Don't get me wrong,
I'm glad everyone survived!
But........
where do we go from here?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bird migration is the regular seasonal journey undertaken by many species of birds. Bird movements include those made in response to changes in food availability, habitat or weather. These however are usually irregular or in only one direction and are termed variously as nomadism, invasions, dispersal or irruptions. Migration is marked by its annual seasonality. In contrast, birds that are non-migratory are said to be resident or sedentary. Approximately 1800 of world's 10,000 bird species are long-distance migrants.
The routes of satellite tagged Bar-tailed Godwits migrating north from New Zealand. This species has the longest known non-stop migration of any species, up to 10,200 km (6,300 mi).Navigation is based on a variety of senses. Many birds have been shown to use a sun compass. Using the sun for direction involves the need for making compensation based on the time. Navigation has also been shown to be based on a combination of other abilities including the ability to detect magnetic fields (magnetoception), use visual landmarks as well as olfactory cues.
I liked "SULLY's" style.
I liked "SULLY's" style.
He was very humble about the whole ordeal.
Made money off of it also.
You could say....."A piece of GOOD LUCK, just fell in his lap!"
Can't picture him losing that humility or profiting excessively from his ordeal...... unless for a good cause.
To do so would be an injustice to pilots of all crash landings.
Yes! I very glad everyone made it off the plane alive.
Sully!
Job well done.
