The FCC just released the transcripts from Flight 1549 on their

conspicuously lacking, despite the assertion of some t.o. posters to
the contrary. Here's one small section:

You have no idea what was going on in their minds, do you.

No, I thought not,

"Their minds"? I'm only interested in the pilot.

And yes, now we do, thanks to an interview with Katie Couric:

"Did you, at any point, pray?" CBS' Katie Couric asked.

"I would imagine somebody in back was taking care of that for me while
I was flying the airplane," he [Capt. Sullenberger] said."

A nice way of saying 'no', sounds like.


What a wild assumption THAT is

Yet he made it clear, in the way that he worded his answer, that he
did not waste time praying.

Sounds more like he was busy and was glad someone took care of it for him.

sounds more like he relied on something real - his own skill and
training.
