According to his company's Web site, Captain Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger, III is a former U.S. Air Force fighter pilot with over 40 years of flying experience. His site says he's also served as an instructor and Air Line Pilots Association safety chairman, accident investigator and national technical committee member.

All 155 people on board survived.
