:arrow: Move Over Sully... (http://nycaviation.com/2009/10/16/move-over-sully/)

An article about the world's first successful water landing of an airliner.

I don't get the Move Over part... Sully still did an awesome job, especially compared to the Pan Am water landing described in the article - they did not have time to circle around and dump fuel for hours with a couple engines still going strong. Not sure about the other water landings mentioned in the article, but just from that example, Sully should be staying where he's at :)

Thank You dimamo1983, I agree, and while I have not read Sully's new book yet I understand he praises Captain Ogg along with a few other notalbe airman in a whole chapter I understand.

Cheers

I've been looking around for an hour and can't find an answer...anyone know if the OGG (Kahului, Hawaii) airport code is in honor of Captain Ogg?

It's nothing to be taken too seriously. Just some tongue-in-cheek to reference a similar incident. Sully did an amazing job of course and is one of few heroes of our time.
