It's a reunion of heroes. "It feels good to be back in New York. It feels good to be back at work." There was applause even at a news conference for America's most celebrated and trusted pilot who says it feels great to return to the cockpit and take a planeload of passengers up in the sky again after last January's "Miracle on the Hudson." Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger is being reunited with his trusty first officer Jeff Skiles on a U.S. Airways flight between Charlotte and LaGuardia on Thursday.
