Captain Dominic James, who was formerly a nominee for Cleo Bachelor of the Year, is being lauded as a hero after successfully ditching his jet in the sea off Norfolk Island, saving all on board. The plane was critically low on fuel after being unable to land and so the hunky pilot took the plane down in 1.5 metre seas.

Only three passengers had time to put on life jackets and the others were forced to cling to them as the plane sank and they were left treading water awaiting rescue, Mr Robinson said.
“Full credit to the pilot … the aircraft sank fairly rapidly and he pulled [the passengers] together,” he said. “It was just an amazing effort by him.”
Yes yes, I know it’s all a bit stereotypical to be feeling week at the knees about this but just look at this guy. He’s gorgeous. He’s a pilot. AND he’s a hero. The romance-novel loving part of me is very, very impressed. And the Red Dwarf fan in me is saying “What A Guy!”
Here’s a News.com.au report on this story.
Edit 20th Nov. As Crikey have rightly pointed out… why was the plane out of fuel so early? Perhaps our hero isn’t quite what we want him to be. Ah well.
