Great feeling about miracle on the Hudson

One more reported plane crash. For those who are afraid of flying, one more reason to stay planted on safe grounds; for those who enjoy flying, like myself, one more reason to believe in miracles and in the ability of those guys who are in the cockpit. When I saw the news of the disaster on TV and the consequences the entire event could've brought about if there were not a river and a great and experienced pilot like that one, I simply stopped breathing. The man in charge was Capt. Chelsey Sullenberger, made instantly into a hero, but from his look and low-key style, it seemed to me he felt like doing his regular job on a normal day crisscrossing skies in America. In fact, that's what all true heroes are made of. He saved all those 155 lives and all over the world we are proud of him. Anyone could've been on that plane. I have flown USAirways several times on the way to Charlotte, NC. I could've been on that plane. Thank God, I wasn't, but I am happy and proud of the captain and crew as though I were. The plane was another Airbus A320, the same model that exploded in Congonhas and took almost 200 lives with it to another dimension. I wish the TAM disaster had a happy end like the one on the Hudson river. I truly wish. 155 different families are relieved now. Thanks to a miracle. Yes, miracles do happen. Good. Very good!
