The true story of a great modern hero; everybody should see this terrific film!

Rating: 10/10 (1 December 2016)

He was smarter than the air traffic controllers, the NTSB investigators, the flight simulator pilots, the flight simulation computers; he even outsmarted fate itself. On January 15, 2009 in New York City, 155 airline passengers and crew, plus an unknown number of people on the ground were all spared from a horrible and fiery death that fate had planned for them on that day. All their lives were saved because of one fact: the brain of Captain Chesley Sullenberger was in the cockpit of US Airways flight 1549 on that day.
Forget about presidents, royalty, movie stars, or great scientists; if I could choose one famous person that I could meet before I die, it would be Chesley Sullenberger.
Excellent directing, acting, screenplay, editing, and special effects; but mostly, the true story of a great modern hero. Everybody should see this terrific film!
