4. Sorry, I've been watching coverage since 8 this morning.
I'm a tad touchy about stories being done to well...overdone, let's say.

Still, if you want to know why pilots are well-paid, that's why. That flight crew saved 180-something people that day.

5. That crash has always fascinated me.
I guess with all the heroes that were involved, the site of the crash (the corn fields) and because the crash was caught on time.

I saw some special on A&E or one of those channels.
I think the show is called Minute-by-Minute. They tell the story almost in real time. It was really interesting.
