Strange seeing the entire scene moving, floating down river.

I fly cross country twice a week. Put 265,000 miles on last year.
I always picture myself when I see this kind of thing — what would I do?
146 passengers

It's not uncommon ... jet engines are designed to withstand ingesting some amount of foreign objects (birds, for example), but there's such thing as "too much". "Too much" will wreck the engine.

re: Currently 22F in NYC; windchill 12F I'm sure the water is much warmer, probably at least 33 degrees.

Wow. That is way more people than I thought. If they can’t get people out safely then they should run cables under the plane and lift them via helicopter to keep the plane up enough to get the people out.

once again, I have to repeat, Shep Smith shouldn't report on anything except Bingo results. I fully expect to watch him do a meltdown someday.

A white pelican brought down a B-1B bomber in 1987. Six on board, 3 got out. Low level, high subsonic bird strike between engines 1 and 2 cut all of the hydraulics.
