Plane down in Hudson River

As SLF when checking in "what is pilots name" if not Sullenberger sharp intake of breath.
Seriously top marks all round, when I was being taught at the Queen's expense ditching in anything was thought to be seriously dodgy Pictures were shown of aircraft nosing in with nothing much underneath but a radiator, to do it with underslung engines was thought impossible. The stress engineers who got the sums right also deserve a medal.
