You are joking? Where I am, this story just seemed to run and run for six months.
It is true that those of us interested in aviation have been watching and reading about this incident since it happened. Indeed that is why we are commenting right now!
I was referring to the general "Joe Public" man or woman in the street. Just try asking any non aviation people how much they know of the near disaster on a Qantas A380 last November, and then ask them about the Hudson River landing. Where I live, they all seem very aware of one but not of the other, that's all I was saying.
The important point is my respect for the excellence of these guys.
