God wanted me on that plane for a reason
Miracle on the Hudson hero tells story of 2009 plane crash
W 090612 BG SANDERSON
Dave Sanderson, a survivor of the "Miracle on the Hudson" plane crash in 2009, recounted his experience of being the last passenger out during Thursday's Boys & Girls Club Steak and Burger Dinner fundraising event.
The last man out of the plane that crash-landed Jan. 15, 2009, in the Hudson River helped save 155 lives. Dave Sanderson wasn’t supposed to be on that plane, but a rearranged schedule had him on an earlier flight than planned. “I truly believe God wanted me on that plane for a reason,” he told guests at the Seventh Annual Boys and Girls Club of Bulloch County Steak and Burger Dinner held Thursday night at Statesboro’s First Baptist Church.
