What gratitude!

Going outside my remit for once, it does seem inconceivable that some of the passengers on the airliner which successfully crash-landed in the Hudson river the other week after a bird strike took out both engines are considering suing the airline. It's only down to the extraordinary skill of the pilot - an employee of the airline - that they are alive to think about taking such action. Surely they should be thanking the airline, not suing them?
