Det är en fantastiskt intressant bok, där flygkapten "Sully" Sullenberger beskriver sin uppväxt och sitt långa yrkesliv som jaktpilot i U S Airforce och sedan som trafikflygare. Han beskriver detaljerat om den nödlandning han gjorde som kapten på den Airbus med 155 ombord som fick motorstopp på båda motorerna ett par minuter efter start.

Det kallas för "Miraklet på Hudsonffloden, för alla överlevde, och bara några få fick skador.
