Reminder (motivated by taway69's post questioning Sully's credentials): prior to the Hudson river incident in 2009, Sully was already an aviation safety expert, having participated in multiple National Transportation Safety Board investigation, and having founded a safety related company in 2007 (so at that moment in 2009 he was kind of the perfect man for the situation). So yes he's very much qualified to testify in front of Congress.
