Flight 1549

I just saw "60 Minutes" with Katie Couric about Flight 1549.

This flight took off from LaGuardia Airport on January 15th, 2009 on way to Charlotte NC.
The plane's engines broke down and landed in the Hudson River.
The plane's crew: Captain Chesley Sullenberger, 1st officer Jeffrey B. Skiles, flight attendants Donna Dent, Doreen Welsh and Sheila Dail are real heroes and made a perfect landing saving all passengers.

A Holocaust survivor wrote Captain Sullenberger in a thank-you letter:
"He who saves one soul it's as if he saved the entire world."
כל המציל נפש אחת כאילו הציל עולם ומלאו

Captain Sullenberg saved 155 souls and many more on the ground in Manhattan and New Jersey.
