Yup, saw those and a couple more on FOX this morning...

But can't be stated enough, the pilot had his collective crap
together
that
time. Landing one of those on water like that without a collision,
no
power, without breakup and no serious injuries I strongly suspect
isn't an
accident.

He is what Don W. and Harry hate. A guy with a degree from a military
academy. And being an Air Force guy and not a Marine, Go Air Force
Academy guys.

Say what?

But then you tried to tell someone right here that you WASN'T a civil
servant.......


No I "WASN'T"!
As I've stated many times, I was employed by a Crown Corporation and draw my
pension from same Crown Corporation.
All my working life, we were considered at 'arms length' from any current
government, although I wouldn't be surprised if the current Conservative
gang in Ottawa have bent that a bit to control negative reporting &
broadcasting.
