On 15 January 2009, an Airbus A320 as US Airways Flight 1549 encounters a bird strike with a flock of Canadian geese just 1 and a half minutes after taking off from LaGuardia Airport in New York en route to Charlotte/Douglas Airport. The flight just lasted about 5 minutes when the plane ditched into the Hudson River, amazingly leaving all onboard alive. The ditching is described as "the most successful ditching of all time".

  • why not just kill birds near airports? at least the big ones because I'd rather see dead birds than dead people
