40,000 combined hours in the cockpit. That’s the sort of numbers I want upfront when I fly.

2026: Watching this after Captain Sully announced that he has Alzheimer's. I pray that the good Lord blesses this man and his loved ones. 🙏 💙

People on that plane couldn't have asked for a better crew.

I love it when Jeff Skiles says "I've had an engine failure, but just one at a time" and Sully replies "good plan..."

I love how, in one of his first answers, Sully highlights Jeff.  ‘He actually has more hours than I do...’ True class act.

Jeffery Skyles now flies vintage warplanes for a living.<br>I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome for the man.

Jeff's comment "I'd do it in July" to the safety board was 100% true.

Letterman: So you're job is to restart the engines.<br>Skiles: I failed.<br>Sully: So hard to find good help.<br>Had me rolling.

The 1st Officer Jeff is so funny. He just cracks one joke after the other to break the ice.
