Australian Cathay Pilots airmanship recognised.
Came across this 2014 article which I have not seen before about the Cathay A330 that lost full power on both engines inflight, its a good read.

When both of Flight CX780’s engines failed on approach to Chek Lap Kok, tragedy looked certain to its pilots, who hadn’t trained for such an emergency. However, outstanding airmanship led to a safe – if not smooth – landing for the 322 people on board. Now, for the first time, the unsung fliers talk publicly about their death-defying ordeal, Simon Parry reports
