… but this guy’s a hero:
Veteran pilot, 57, safely landed US Airways jet in Hudson River
JANUARY 15–Meet Chesley B. “Sully” Sullenberger, III, the US Airways pilot who today amazingly crash-landed a US Airways jet in New York’s Hudson River without any apparent fatalities. The heroic Sullenberger, 57, has worked for US Airways since 1980, and before that spent more than six years as a U.S. Air Force F-4 fighter pilot. Sullenberger, … must be considered the front runner to replace Hillary Clinton as New York’s junior United States Senator.
