The Headlines Say Sullenburger is Returning to the Cockpit.


It’s published so it must be true. Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger–hero of the Jan. 15 Airbus A320 miracle landing on the Hudson–is going to be part of US Airways Flight operations safety management team. This means he’ll be handling regular flights and also they’re giving him a suit and making him management. (Or would that be the uniform with the really shiny epaulettes?)

Never has anyone deserved recognition more.

Do you hear us Sully? We’re still applauding.
