That said, in the case of US1549, the guy who signed for the airplane was the guy with much more experience in the airplane and took command...not a knock on Skiles or his background, just a simple fact of that moment in time.
While there's definitely a white paper on CRM to be written based on this accident, can't say I find any fault in what Sully did in that cockpit.

What so many here are forgetting in regards to CRM is that it is Crew Resource Management. Sully managed his resources in the best way possible. As evidenced by the outcome of US1549.
