Chesley B. Sullenberger III, U.S. Airways Hero Pilot

Chesley B. Sullenberger III, the pilot who safely landed a US Airways plane in the Hudson River, grew up in the North Texas town of Denison.

Many recall Sullenberger as a serious student, which is reflected in these photos of his senior year in high school.  Sullenberger graduated from Denison High in 1969.   During his high school career Sullenberger was president the Denison Latin club, band council and was an academic award winner.

Denison is located about 65 miles north of Dallas.
