We are only 3 weeks into the new year and I can already tell you U.S. Airways 1549 is the feel good story of 2009.
From a pilot and airplane aficiando's point of view, what happened on January 15th was exactly what the media has dubbed it, a "miracle."
Never in the history of aviation has a pilot ditched a commercial airliner into the water without it breaking apart or lives being lost. What the crew onboard the Airbus A320 did that day saved the lives of 155 people, and Captain Chesley Sullenberger is hero.
