Thanks for posting this. *

"the pilots acknowledged no wrongdoing" *Well, no Sully integrity with
these two losers.

Reapply for their licenses?? *Why? *Make go through all the training
requirements from ab initio all over again. *That will give them time to
acknowledge their professional deficiencies at least to themselves.


And I'd be interested in what happened to the controllers who were
implicated in the overflight..
