Turn your VHF on. Plane went down at LaGuardia and they are rescuing
the passengers now.

It's on all major networks too.

Blame it on the Canadians ..... geese.

I have a web based scanner set up in Mystic on a relay - man those
guys worked fast.

Great job to the NYFD, USCG and the NY Waterways ferry captains.

Standing O to the pilots of that bird.

Funny story on NBC - Williams just interviewed one of the passengers
who was on his way to a golf vacation in FL. He just purchased a new
set of clubs - expensive Conways or something and he was more ****ed
about losing his new clubs than spending the afternoon on a wing in
the middle of the Hudson. :)


It's funny. As I sit here watching the news coverage, the thought occurred
to me that the response team, from ferries to police to USCG was just
outstanding. They all responded in an amazingly short period of time.
Plus, I can't even imagine the quick thinking of the pilot. He didn't have
much time to make any decisions.
