Never will cease to amaze me what that crew and pilot did. Every time that I have tried to do the same ina simulator I have crashed. :laugh:

Awesome find!

Got a chuckle out of the FO's comment about the controller.

I also thought that it was interesting that the other pilots on the freq appeared to have a better grasp about the situation than the atc did.

Great find.  That is the best compilation of the success of that crew I have seen.  Thanks for the link.
