    This story deserves to make headlines where ever possible, as it's a demonstration of so much that is good about people.

    http://avherald.com/h?article=4a2e28af&opt=0

    is a news item about a flight crew who collectively responded to a situation where they could have just walked away, but they chose not to, and the result of their actions demonstrates so much of what is still good about the human race.

    I would like to hope that this story will get much wider publicity that it has so far, it makes for so much nicer reading than so much of the stuff that the media throws at us on a daily basis.

    Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁

    Fair play, they really displayed some wonderful care and understanding.

    We don't you submit the story to the Press Attaché, for the Embassy of the P.R of China, here in Dublin. So as to make them aware of the high esteem that the crew is held in by the local aviation community?

    Why not sent also submit it to the national media outlets here as well?

    As an aside, I felt this was quite warming to read from an Irish prospective. http://www.independent.ie/life/travel/travel-talk/flying-them-home-aer-lingus-and-ryanairs-quiet-acts-of-compassion-35330200.html
