Captain Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger, who landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River in 2009 and saved all 155 people aboard, was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame. The ceremony took place at the Hall's home in Dayton, Ohio, honoring his 42-year flying career. Sully, now 75, said in his remarks that the Hudson landing was one moment in a life that has been about much more than a single day.
