Airplane Crashes Into Hudson River

A plane just went down in the Hudson River. Apparently caused by birds! Here's the CNN website for the news. I hope everyone is safe.

Been watching the ongoing coverage on TV. It appears everyone got out, thank heavens.

Man, how frightening for them!

Birds are the sworn enemies of airplanes.

I hate flying as it is...I so don't want to see the Hudson that close up.

Can't you just picture Woody the Woodpecker laughing. I can say that because everybody is okay.

Scary. There's one more reason for me to hate birds - you know, as if shitting on people from the sky wasn't bad enough.

I saw this on the ninemsn website when I first turned on the computer! Spectacular photos of the rescue!
So lucky no-one was killed. Amazing.

Shit like this scares me silly. My sister and aunt are both flight attendants, and ever since 9-11 any time I hear about a plane having a problem, I don't stop stressing until I know a-if they are ok or b-if it was their airline

Those birds must be now celebrities, in their bird world..chirping around on how they "derribed the big hard noisy bird monster"!!

At about the two minute mark you can see US Air Flight 1549 skid into the Hudson. Then, you can see the passengers climb out onto the wings. This video is 10 minutes long. Actual video of Flight 1549 skidding into the Hudson.
