    This guy ain't no Sully.

    Flight from Moscow to NY and the pilot appeared soused. So the passengers revolted.

    EDIT:

    OK. This made me laugh.

    This part is interesting:

    "His slurred and garbled comments ahead of a flight from Moscow to New York convinced passengers that he was drunk. When he apparently switched from Russian into unintelligible English, fear turned to revolt."

    Sure, it wouldn't be a 'big deal' if he was drunk.

    That is, until he decides to land the plane in the Hudson. Without a bird in his engine.
