Risk your life and that is heroic when your skills and experience ended up in a cockpit and you used exceptional judgment and skills.
Doing something beyond expectations is heroic.
Doing what are expected and trained to do, another boring day at the office.

Yes, and its sad that the crew of AA flight 191 (O’Hare, May 25, 1979) couldn’t have at least had an intact, low speed, high lift wing on the left side of their plane, after the engine departed.
No human(s) could have saved the day in that situation. A farmer/pilot friend of mine lost his fiance that day (a stewardess).
