Description:

A US Airways pilot ditched his disabled jetliner, flight 1549, into the frigid Hudson River on Thursday afternoon after a collision with a flock of birds apparently knocked out both engin0es, but officials said rescuers safely pulled all 155 people on board into boats as the plane sank. Scott Drake talks with aviation lawyer Charles Brewer in Phoenix, AZ. Charles Brewer is not only renown for his expertise as an aviation attorney, but also as a 40 year aviator and jet rated pilot in his own right. Listen to this fascinating interview on exactly what an amazing feat of flying this was by Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger III, the US Airways pilot who avoided what would have likely been one of the largest aviation disasters in decades with his cool decision making.
