The single most unbelievable piece of transport flying in history. Captain Sully did a great job putting his plane down in the Hudson, but it pales in comparison to Sioux City landing(or controlled crash). Pilots of exceptional skill.

There happened to be a UAL Instructor Pilot onboard. He sat between the Pilot and Copilot manipulating the Throttles on the 2 remaining engines to steer as best as possible. It was a plan He thought up while being there.
