Also what they do for them

What they do for them? I am willing to bet withen 24 hours they will all be contacted by lawyers informing them that they have all won the lottery. Forget the fact that birds brought the plane down and it was the skill of the pilots that set it down in one piece, thats all immaterial, what really matters is the intense psychological trauma they suffered and it's lasting effects that can only be cured by many maany millions of dollars.

The price of a flight just went up.

We have a. Huge prolem with bird since all our major airports are by water. They always have crzy things going on to keep the birds away from the airports.

Pilot is an Air Force vet- flew F-4 fighters.

Good thing it wasn't a swabbie.

Friggin' amazing. I can't believe the outcome; what a miracle that he was able to safely put down that plane in the water without power, and with little to no damage. It's so rare that a plane ditching is successful. WOW! Glad everyone's going to be okay. That pilot's a hero!

P.S.
I merged the three threads.

What a great story out of what could have been a horrific tragedy.

Great job to the pilot, crew and and all of the boaters who respoded and helped get the survivors out of the water....:cheers2:

Incredible job. Handled well by all. Amazing how organized that rescue effort looked. Help there in less than 5 minutes too. AWESOME to see people helping people instead of people killing people

Great job by all involved. What kind of boats are those that came out to assist? Are they ferrys or some type of enforcment boats? Looks like they did a great job getting everyone off with the plane moving in the current. Amazing
