US Airways' Hero Pilot, Passengers Share Miracle River Landing

Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger and the US Airways flight 1549 crew have been making headlines ever since they safely landed a jet with 155 people in the Hudson River. But their first television appearances since last month's crash served as a poignant reminder that the plunge into the icy water was more than some Hollywood fantasy.

I knew immediately it was very bad," Sullenberger told Katie Couric during his 60 Minutes interview on Sunday. "I knew immediately that this, unlike every other flight I'd had for 42 years, was ... read more
