Had it not been for Denny Fitch's autistic obsession with JAL123 and running hundreds of hours of simulator time with complete hydraulic loss scenarios, every single soul aboard would have been lost. It's a greater miracle than Sully's Hudson landing by an exponential factor.

Denny Fitch will always be apex. Guy managed to not only get to an airport, but onto a specific runway with fire rescue waiting, with zero hydraulics, solely through throttling and feathering the engines, and managed to save 2/3rds of the souls on board. When the FAA tried dozens of recreations in simulators with multiple teams of their best pilots, every single one pancaked into the ground less than halfway to the airport. It's quite possibly the greatest miracle there will ever be in aviation history. A man saved 184 people with nothing but sheer autistic obsession with no surface landings after JAL123.
