FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Heroes of Hudson Honorary Party

Celebration Fit for Heroes

Honorary VIP party to be given to heroes of Hudson River Landing……

New York City
Pilot Chesley B. Sullenberger is without a doubt a hero after advising air traffic control of a "double bird strike" that disabled the Airbus A320 and guided all 155 people on board US Airways Flight 1549 to safety in an emergency Hudson River landing this past Thursday January 15th.

Sullenbergers Key to the City will open nightlife entrepreneur JE Engleberts, Suzie Wong or Prime nightclubs in West Chelsea, for a special VIP celebration for all staff of flight 1549, NYC Firefighters, NYC police, NY Waterways ferries, several heroic civilians and everyone who took part in Thursdays rescue. Englebert also president of The Staten Island Good Neighborhood Association additionally praises firefighters from his hometown of Staten Island's Rescue Co. 5 and Marine 9 who were summoned to the Stapleton home port in Staten Island to join the rescue effort.

Sullenberger, a 29 year veteran of the US Airways team had been "incredibly skillful" said NYC Mayor Bloomberg. “The writer Ernest Hemingway has defined heroism as "grace under pressure" "I think it's fair to say that Captain Sullenberger displayed that “ Bloomberg said.

“Sullenberger made a split-second decision that saved the lives of everyone on board the plane and possible casualties on the ground. I would like have a drink with him and make a toast on his behalf at my clubs” Englebert says.
