01-15-2009 04:57 PMhope they get everyone out. Water must be icy. Looks like the pilot did a good job. He hit a flock of geese and aimed for the river. Originally Posted by MahopacMarine

01-15-2009 07:26 PMI can only joke like that because I'm glad everyone got out safely.
Helluva job by the Pilots and crew!!
I was listening to a talk radio station when this happened, and they were saying that they think they hit a flock of geese taking out both engines, they don't think it was a terrorist act, but they were not ruling it out.
WTF??
I suddenly had the scene from the Indiana Jones movie with Sean Connery running along the beach scaring seagulls with an umbrella running through my mind. Only he had a towel on his head
