At approximately 3:31pm you can see the plane skid across the river in the video clip. Flight 1549 was bound for Charlotte, NC on Jan 15th, 2009 when it hit a flock of geese and lost engine power shortly after takeoff. A miraculous landing took place onto the Hudson RIver a few minutes later which can be seen on the video clip. Within seconds, the passengers escape onto the wings of the floating airplane. It took only a couple minutes for rescue boats to arrive. Everyone survived!
