WOW! All 155 passengers and flight crew members survived an emergency landing on the Hudson River yesterday afternoon. The US Airways flight 1549 left LGA heading toward Charlotte NC, when birds got caught in a engine. The pilot tried to head to Teterboro Airport but decided to land in the 32 degree waters of the Hudson River instead. Ferry crews that transports commuters from Jersey to Manhattan arrived in less that 3 minutes and began to pick up the passengers. Two people were in the waters and only two children were on the flight. Today Mayor Bloomberg presented a key to the city to the Pilot Chelsea Sullenberger, (hello book deal and tv movie)who cannot talk to the media until the investigation is complete.
