Being in NY, I'm getting even more than the usual amount of saturation on this story -- There are lots of west side folk who saw it from their windows... including some news guys from their window... one of whom said he went for his camera, then reminded himself the thing to do was call 911 FIRST. On NPR this morning someone pointed out no one had even mentioned the co-pilot ...

This will probably be corrected at some point...
Amazing story - wonderful ending.

No doubt Frank will feel vindicated to know that the birds may have been Canada 
Geese.

I was thinking exactly that thing as I read the story in the paper
this morning.  Quite the amazing job that pilot did, guiding the
aircraft to a safe landing in the drink with no engines.  He's a hero.

cheers,
frank
