read the comments, some “braniacs” /s think that he landed in the Hudson cause he always “wanted to”.

Don’t know if this video link has been posted here yet, but I just saw this one for the first time:

Security camera video from the left hand side of the aircraft showing moment of impact. Not the Coast Guard video from the right hand side.

Say what they want, the pilot did one helluva job setting that plane down and ensuring his passengers all got off alive.

While luck played a part in it, his discipline and coolness under fire played an important role too.

If he ends up with Hillary’s seat, good. We need more people able to think on their feet like that.
