McClatchy Newspapers says this of Usairways Cactus 1549, saved by the pilot

McClatchy Newspapers says this of US Airways Cactus 1549, saved by the pilot

This image boils my butt; the pilot landed the craft. It wasn't some miracle; human effort save all those people.  It would have been a miracle if the plane had landed without any intervention on the part of the Pilot at all.  Why minimize Human Achievement like this?

About NiteMayr

Before: Kevin was born on the mossy hills of Scotland and lived for a while in West Lothian before the mores of pre-Thatcher and REALLY pre-Oasis Great Britain sent his family across the ocean to North America. They moved here and there and Kevin did the same when he was old enough. Now he lives in London with his family and a Dog. Kevin Wardrop is an amateur writer, amateur photographer and professional pain in the ass. He has worked in the PC support business for most of his adult life and has been accustomed to simply answering technical questions as a matter of fiat, it was his career choice after all. Now he herds cats and puppies for a living as well as babysitting the web enterprises at the heart of western industry. He sleeps on an eastern-style bed and dreams of laying cable over country roads.
