I don’t know much about flying but that was pretty funny. He pulled into a parking lot. Never lost his cool.

Interesting to look up and to the right and see the numerous power lines. Consider that the outcome could have been quite different had the landing been a bit more to the right, or if they tangled with any overhead wires crossing the highway. Quite lucky guys, but skilled too in keeping calm and getting down safely. Kudos to both of them!

Never lost his cool.

Read the book "The Survivor's Club," by Ben Sherwood.

Your statement is the essence of why some people survive and others do not.

When you are prepared and keep your cool, it's amazing what you can endure.

Remember the recent "Miracle on the Hudson." Same story. Sully was prepared for anything and stayed cool as ice.
