U.S Airline Crashing Into Hudson River

U.S Airline Crashes Into The Hudson River

Just a while ago, a plane crashed into the Hudson River and it wasn't a terrorist attack, but the reporters are saying that the plane crashed into a flock of geese and some of the geese damaged the engine. The pilot had to land the plane because of the damage to the engine, but they were able to call for help and were able to crash near ferries that were there to help them. This is what reporters are reporting.

I'm surprise the cause of it was geese, it really shocked me.

What do you guys think about this?

Yep, the good old Hudson river. This was quite a close-to-home disaster.

They say testing planes is done by shooting chickens out of cannons at their windshields. Somebody must have let this plane pass the test on a curve.

Yeah they throw them through the propellers to make sure that they'd be able to handle it. I can only hope that from now on they run tests on geese now, if not to be safer then at least to aid the war on geese.

that is true and the only thing that happened to the passengers is that some of them have hypothermia, but that is just mostly it. Thank God no one died.

Haha, except the article said it was the engine that was damaged- not the windshield.

Anyway, geese ≠ terrorists.

Fascinating, I learned something new today.

Poor birdies. ]:

Oh, and I bet the passengers are traumatized to an extent, too...

We can't be sure of that, can we? Geese have the potential. Just look at this:

Its actually (and obviously) quite a serious problem if a bird flies into an engine of a plane. Its not the first time its happened but its the worst case I've seen.

On an alternative notes, doesnt anyone remember Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and the scene on the beach with the Messerschmidt?
