The man behind the movie: Dr. Brian Goldman interviews Sully Sullenberger
In 2012 Brian spoke with Sully Sullenberger, the pilot who famously guided US Airways Flight 1549 to an emergency landing on the Hudson River. They spoke about the lessons that aviation has for healthcare. Now he's the subject of a major motion picture starring Tom Hanks, we're sharing the interview again.
In December 2012, Brian had the chance to speak to one of his heroes, Captain Sully Sullenberger, the pilot who safely guided US Airways Flight 1549 to an emergency landing in the Hudson River in 2009 -- saving everyone on board. Sully had retired from flying and was advising doctors and hospitals on how they can take the lessons of aviation safety and apply them to health care. And now his story is the focus of a major motion picture, Sully, that's just been released, starring Tom Hanks.
