The floatation devices have deployed so I am thinking that might be helping it stay afloar. It has a full fuel tank to I bet.

The friggen plane is floating down the river cause the current is that strong, damn!

@ it could have been intentional. As if it was some kind of "seaplane."

What an idiot.

They got fucked over by a Flock of Geese!

The Pilot is good he landed the plane in the Hudson River, the birds killed 2 engines they are saying and that is why they couldn't make it back to the airport.

No doubt the first plane killed people in the river.

We can only hope that people got scared and tried to exit both rivers before the second plane hit.

2 planes?

There is a survivor on the phone, he said that everyone got out and was able to walk off the plane and right onto a raft and not get wet, he thinks everyone is alive and no major injuries. Amazing.
