The pilot who pulled off one of the most dramatic escapes in aviation history phoned his wife to tell her: 'There's been an accident'.
Captain Chesley B. Sullenberger III, 57, saved the lives of 155 people when he made the extraordinary decision to ditch his stricken Airbus in the freezing Hudson River.
He missed smashing the US Airways plane into the George Washington Bridge by less than 300 metres, according to reports - and then walked the length of the fast-sinking plane twice to make sure everyone was off.
