Capt. Jack Conroyd, comparing his landing with malfunctioning landing gear to Capt. Chesley “Sulley” Sullenberger’s ditching in the Hudson River after losing both engines:
“What Sullenberger did was significantly more difficult than what we did. He’s a hero,” Conroyd said. “When we came in to land, we had both engines running. And we landed on a runway. I am not a hero. I was doing my job.”
Well done on all fronts, Captain Conroyd.
