To all that thought Sully was to focused on "I" in the interview: keep in mind that the 60 Minutes interview is very heavily edited. It is of course edited for ratings and those ratings result from Sully looking like the hero. There were probably numerous instances of him giving credit to the crew that ended up on the editing room floor.

If you watched the Early Show on CBS this morning, which was live and un-edited, you noticed that he took every opportunity to cite the actions of the CREW. He fully acknowledged that this miracle would have been impossible without them.

A quote from Sullenberger on the Early Show:
"I must also say, this entire experience has been too much about Sully and not enough about the team..."
