no question the pilot deserves a medal

it will be interesting to hear the black box and see if the crew thought about trying to land at nearby Tetaboro Airport , they must have thought they were going down fast and weren't going to make it

For those of you not in the tri state area - tetaboro is in NJ just north of the meadowlands
