  • Capt. Sully is Chuck Norris' dad.

  • @fiona3637 True that, Lisztman88!! I've lost count of how many ignorant morons have criticized Patrick Hardin, the Air Traffic Controller who handled 1549, for continuing to offer alternatives. He performed splendidly, and he deserves accolades for his calm and cool. The work of an Air Traffic Control is incredibly stressful on a good day, and just as Cactus 1549 had the best crew you could ask for,and they also have Patrick Hardin to thank.

  • "Going in the Hudson" -- technical term is "ditch". For those of you who have seen "Drive" (movie with Ryan Gosling), the key song to the soundtrack ("A Real Hero") was written originally about Sulley and this "flight-save".
