Here locally the county commission voted to put in a new pond. The airport authority and other local agencies all recommended against it because the pond will right in the flight path of the local airport. |

I haven't been on a plane since before September 11th. I only went to New York for the first time since Dec 2001 a couple weeks ago. September 11 just traumatized me, I saw the whole thing. I was in New York that day. I was planning on coming back to Florida that same day, not the same plane though. While I was packing my stuff I saw smoke coming from the tower and all I could say was ".....Holy...." So while my parents were packing I ran in and screamed that the Twin Towers are on fire. We all ran to the window and saw the second plane hit. It was amazing to see. Like something that came straight out of a movie. But then we left New York a few days later and I could barely get on the plane. |

Exactly, how some people could say damn those geese for flying, which is their nature, is insane. I live on a cliff overlooking the Hudson and could see everything from my bedroom window. It's nothing short of a miracle that the pilot did such an amazing job and that the NY Waterway ferries and Circle Line ferries responded so quickly. This is beautiful outcome to what could have been a horrible story. Let's not taint it with irrational cursing of geese for just being where they are supposed to be. Bad weather has brought down way more flights than birds. Do you start yelling damn you clouds when that happens? |

someone please answer this. I really dont get why these pilots are getting such rediculous praise for what happened.
Now let me clarify that the pilots stayed brave in the situation and didnt let their minds stray with disasterous thought, and they were the reason everyone was safe, but for a reality check, they only did their job.
they landed the plane in a routine landing, only it happened to be on water instead of land. I mean, most of the guys who graduate pilot school can do that on their first day. Its what their trained to do.
but as I said, i understand what went down and respect them and they deserve recognition but some people (not just here, i havent even read all the coments here) act like it was mission impossible for them.

What the guy did was INCREDIBLE. Picture being into a flight 5 minutes and then all of a sudden realizing what's going on. The guy was thousands of feet in the air and had no where to land, but he had to land in the river. Imagine having THAT MUCH pressure against you and knowing you had 155 people to safely get out of a plane. How the pilot landed the plane perfectly so the passengers could safely was truly amazing. The guy is a historical figure now. |
