CBS's 60 Minutes organized a meeting with the grateful passengers of the Hudson River Miracle Landing with the captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger III and his crew.
People express their gratitude to the captain and the grew. Captain's family has received many mails and even a "beer money" from around the world.
ABC reports:
"The heartfelt thanks from the passengers were often said through tears.
"I thought I was going to lose my wife and never get to see my children. I thank you, all of you, from the bottom of my heart," a choked-up Larry Snodgrass told the captain.
Passenger David Sontag said he wrote a letter to each crew member of US Airways flight 1549. He read part of them on the air: "I wish for you the old Irish saying, 'May the wind always be at your back and may God hold you safely in his hands.'"
