Good decision making too (ie. to land off-field rather than try to reach
an airport). Quite admirable.




Part of their good fortune was that they were flying over some sparsely
populated land. It might not have turned out quite so well if he'd been flying
over northern Virginia when he infarcted. I know around here there are many
places to crash and few places to land. In the eastern part of my state (NC),
it's the opposite.
