  That air hostess, Michelle Honda, is a walking miracle. Crawling up the aisle making people take crash position, making sure everyone was safe, when she MUST have been beyond terrified is amazing. What a hero, as well as the pilot and copilot.

  Just imagine the controller, he probably had a slow day and suddenly he has to manage the biggest emergency this tiny airport has ever encountered ...

  In addition to the amazing skills of the pilot and co-pilot, major credit also needs to go to Michelle Honda. She moved through the cabin - without restraints and by hanging on to the seats - and got every single passenger into a flotation vest and into the brace position. And then rather than strapping herself in, she shielded her injured co-worker for the duration of the landing. I remember seeing an interview with the pilot not long after this happened. He said that once the plane was landed and stopped, he was certain he was going to look back into the cabin and see carnage and empty seats. What he saw were all the passengers, many injured but all of them safely in their seats. That entire crew were the definition of professionalism.

  RIP to flight attendant who died. The pilot who landed the plane should be recognized as a hero.

  I&apos;m disappointed that more people aren&apos;t recognizing the incredibly talented and HEROIC pilot who landed the plane safely and saved lives. HE is the reason the plane landed safely.

  My future father-in-law was on that flight. &nbsp;He was the one holding down the flight attendant. Thank God he wasn’t hurt. Our wedding was 2. Weeks away, and Aloha Airlines gave us &nbsp;a &nbsp;ton of anthurium flowers .

  I am a close personal Friend of Bob Schornstheimer the Captain of this flight. &nbsp;He was a T38 flight instructor in the Air Force with many years of experience. &nbsp;His skill level and level headed approach to flying saved this flight from disaster. &nbsp;A lot of luck was involved but if it was not for the experienced crew of that flight there would be more dead. &nbsp;Bob retired from Aloha Airlines and still to this day lives in Hawaii. &nbsp;I call him a hero but he does not like that term. &nbsp;They all did what they are trained to do day in day out. &nbsp;Just like anyone else. &nbsp;He happened to be at the right time saving people.
