It was on its way to Charlotte. Pilot said he hit a flock of Geese and chose to bring it down in the river.
[Reply]

People are still in the plane.
They have yet to open the doors?
[Reply]

Not sure, they said people were spotted standing on the wing. not sure if they were passengers or rescuers???
[Reply]

smart, fast-acting pilot, could have been so much worse
[Reply]

....and to think of all the flights I took last year......
....and to think how I just ignored and never paid attention to the "your seat bottoms can be used as flotation devices".......

Scary.

That pilot is a "real life" hero.
Amazing to pull that off.

watching it as well

If it had to happen anywhere, I couldn't think of a better place for immediate response!

Patrick,
This thing is sinking fast.
People are still on board it seems.

Well that was just dismissed.
It seems they got passengers off.
[Reply]

Whoa. Good for him. Definitely a smart move and does make me nervous about the amount of flying I do each year.
[Reply]

Another report (NY1) just said its still floating. Water temp is 42*
[Reply]

One of the passengers is being interviewed on CNN.

Says they all got off.
[Reply]

Knowing CNN, they probably found and paid someone... :-)

I hope DrMRS doesn't see this story. I was just flying US Air on the east coast earlier in the week.

Thoughts go out to all the passengers....
