This US Airways crash is amazing that everybody was able to get out with no fatalities. I am dying to see the video of the actual crash. With it being in New York you know there has to be some incredible video.

Watching CNN right now I think they said it was caused by a BIRD STRIKE.

Supposedly it was a double bird strike knocking out both engines. He landed on the river like a runway with no engines. It appears the pilot was an amazing hero.

No fatalities and no major injuries. Thank you, God.

Man, my wife takes that flight about every 2-3 weeks. My father-in-law took a Laguardia to Charlotte earlier today. The one time I'm glad they cut back T&E lately.

The Pilot is about to talk on MSNBC I'm sure it's something he's did with the AP or whatever but what a guy...he showed the motto of being the first one in last one out...that's a hero right there
