US Airways jet bellyflops into the Hudson River - all safe
NEW YORK - A US Airways jetliner crashed into the frigid Hudson River on Thursday afternoon after both engines were disabled, sending more than 150 passengers and crew members scrambling onto rescue boats.
Early reports were that the plane collided with a flock of birds, but the FAA has not confirmed that was the cause of the accident.
After boats rushed to the rescue, the Federal Aviation Administration said that all passengers on US Airways Flight 1549 were off the plane and safe.

I heard that the birds were geese. I hope they weren't Canada geese, or Bush might launch an attack before he's unaugurated.
