Hey Jetesen, did you really write this rubbish?
Why are you all heralding these guys as heros???? all they had was a pressurisation problem. Happens loads of times in aircraft around the world. Just because helios had a crash, no need to make every little problem like this sound huge. They did the job they are trained to do.................end of
No-one suggested they were heroes, simply doing the job as trained to do. The point is that a pressurisation failure followed by an emergency decent is hardly "just doing the job" Nor does it happen "loads of times around the world" If it did we would need a separate heading on prune for them.
Praise where it is due to a fellow proffesional is something we pilots pride ourselves on not being too proud to give nor too bigotted to ridicule it where it is due. As is the case here.
