It was a remarkable – if not miraculous landing. A Polish airplane whose landing gear had refused to open and was thus forced to land on its belly with no wheels. A hair-raising and incredibly dangerous thing to attempt – everyone was expecting the worst.

He was later rightly crowned a hero by the passengers and the airline for having saved the lives of all those people.
Can we learn anything from this event?
