Live Long Commentar Breaking News on US Airways 1549 flight down in New York's Hudson River

Wonderful pilot also the passengers have to thank the designers of the plane AIRBUS. The A320 has a special ditching button that the pilot uses to seal it when landing on water. If this was a Boeing the outcome would probably have been different! The Airbus is a multinational aircraft made in Europe

The Airbus 320 is a good plane. Also the boeing 737, i think its the world most plane in using.Airbus has security levels from europe. Maybe this makes differnts in safety? Greetz from Belgium Brussels

The ditching button was not even used in this incident! The pilot did not use it.

[SAMMYJS991]

so what did he use???

the "plan B" button??

[blahblah121212]

@vitsievitsie The crew stated they never pressed the ditch switch, nor would it have mattered as the bottom was ripped open from impact. Either Airbus or Boeing would have had the same result.

Terror Birds,Bin Laden.......somebody saw a Spaceship Minutes before with Elvis in the Cockpit!

[bushtyranny]

Terrorist Birds? Its not like Sean Connery never made an Indiana Jones movie where he used an Umbrella to scare birds into a Nazi Plane making it CRASH. But it was just a Freak accident. Not like another jet just crashed 3 weeks ago in Denver when it drifted on takeoff. One crash over Christams Holiday? One Crash right before Bush's last speech?

Silly plane, you are not boat >=|

[TellitToMe100]

This pilot needs to be given a CEO's worthy bonus for landing this craft in a manor to keep it from braking apart. These are the heros we all strive to be. To those who responded should praised as well. With the temperatures as low as they were, this could have been a horrible tragedy.
