Olebiker Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I love his understated manner. I could just hear him telling Katie Couric, "Why shucks, Ma'am, twarn't nuthin'." Quote
Super User firefightn15 Posted February 12, 2009 Super User Posted February 12, 2009 In my own humble opinion the word hero gets passed around all to often the last few years, but the Hudson pilot is one case where hero was the first thing that came to mind. Maybe I am wrong, but brave acts are different than heroic acts. I don't know where that line should be drawn, I guess that's any persons' view. Quote

Super User fourbizz Posted February 12, 2009 Super User Posted February 12, 2009 Did you guys see the story about his library book? It was on the plane. He called the library and apologized for not being able to turn it back in! Quote
BUCKEYEone Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Sounds like a great guy, would love to spend a day fishing with him! Quote

He'll get pulled over for speeding and find out there is a warrant out for him because of late fees! ;D Quote
farmpond1 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Most heroes would not call themselves "heroes." They say they did what they had to do. He is no different. Nevertheless, he should be commended for his skills and for staying cool under pressure. Personally, I would have soiled my trousers, changed them, and then soiled them again. Quote
