AIRLINE BIZ Blog | The Dallas Morning News: "In other Sullenberger news, the New York Daily News reports Sunday that Sir Richard Branson would like the captain to fly for his Virgin Atlantic Airways:
'I'd like him to come fly for us,' Branson tell us. 'We'll make him the best-paid pilot at Virgin -- we'll give him double [the salary of] anybody else. He also can become one of the astronauts in my intergalactic spaceship company. The man can write his own ticket with me.'
Sullenberger sounded interested when we conveyed Branson's offer.
'That's amazing,' said the man who saved the lives of 155 people when he deftly landed a jetliner in the freezing Hudson River on Jan. 15. 'I hadn't heard that.'"
