my firm had a big event this weekend and got sully sullenberger to give the keynote address. it really was a great speech. afterward, he was mingling with several firm bigwigs and i walked up to try to ingratiate myself. i felt a little self-conscious sidling up like that and tried to break the tension with a joke. as soon as i walked up i looked at sully and said “well, i guess everyone’s the hero of their own story, right?” i’m actually a big fan and thought my comment would be self-evidently tongue in cheek. anyway, nobody said anything for like the longest three seconds of my life and sully finally responded with a very sober (and just gracious enough to be deadly) “i suppose that’s often the case, son.” my group head immediately stepped in to remind sully of someone he wanted him to meet and the crowd dispersed. haven’t heard anything from any of them since. what’s my play here?

just heard from one guy in the group with whom i work closely. he said the hardest part of his night was not busting out laughing when i said it but that he wouldn’t want to be me today. how bad is this likely to get?

Double down. If confronted, mention that in college you did a little bit of piloting and once landed an Airbus in the Hudson, you just weren't a publicity hound about it.

It's hard to prove a negative, it's not like they can review every FAA record to confirm you didn't land an AirBus in the Hudson. If they get really aggressive, you can also mention that you were working for the CIA at the time and the details of the incident are classified. If they have a top secret clearance and a plausible need to know, then you can share the details but until then you've said as much as you can.
