YourKock'sReallyGreat 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 Someone on sternfannetwork.com claimed that they called US Airways to ask if they could book a plane to the Hudson River. I felt like an asshole for laughing. The pilot did a great job of landing the plane into the river and keeping it entact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obi Chris Kenobi 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2009 http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20090115/twl-us...er-3fd0ae9.html Contains a picture of the plane. TV footage showed dozens of them on the wings of the plane as it floated on the freezing cold river. They were later all rescued. One passenger said he thought the plane had dropped about 100ft and he had stood in about 5ft of water after the crash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
