Air Hostess: Oh my god! You’re Sully Sullenberger.
Sully: Um-hmm.
Air Hostess: You landed that plane in the Hudson river. You saved all those people’s lives.
Sully: Yeah, well, I guess I did what I had to do.
Air Hostess: I didn’t know you were flying again.
Sully: Yeah, I took some time off to write a book. But, um, I’m ready to get back to just being a captain again.
Air Hostess: Well, it’s an honor sir. Let me know if you need anything at all.
Sully: Thank you much.
[Hubbard walks in and Air Hostess walks out]
Hubbard: Howdy there?
Sully: Morning, come on in. [not looking at Hubbard]
Hubbard: Whoops, I’m sorry. I think I’m in that seat.
Sully: What’s that? The captain’s chair?
Hubbard: Yeah, I’m sorry. I think according to the rotation sheet, I’m the captain on this route.
Sully: [talking to the management] Tower, this is American 809. Looks like we got ity-bity typo on our rotation sheet. Can you confirm our captain roster please?
Male voice: Copy 809, we have captain Doug, um, Hubbard as first in command.
Sully: Um, tower, this is American 809, I’m Sully.
Male voice: Come again, 809?
Sully: I am Sully. Sully. Miracle on the Hudson? So?
Male voice: Copy. You haven’t flown in a while Sullenberger. So, FAA requires 18 hours as second in command. You will be assisting captain Hubbard today.
Sully: Well, to-to-tower? Tower? Well, right!
[Sully leaves the seat for Hubbard. they seat in their seats. Sully is very disappointed.]
Hubbard: Tower, this is 809. We’re fueled up and ready for pre-check.
Male voice: Copy that captain. We’ve got you on runway two-two.
Hubbard: Runway two-two. Copy.
Sully: Runway two-two. Copy.
[Hubbard looks at Sully]
You know, your wind-speed isn’t set yet?
Hubbard: Well, I was about to.
Sully: Okay. [silence for a moment] Yep! I’ll never forget that day.
Hubbard: Yeah, crazy. [Talking to the passengers] Good morning, folks. This is your captain.
Sully: And I am Sully.
Hubbard: It should be a pretty smooth ride today.
