Re: Plane crash in NYC
I saw that online in the news. Yikes, sounds like they got everyone off (alive). Seems like the pilot made a good decision, got a better chance getting out on the river than if they had crashed in the downtown area.

Re: Plane crash in NYC
Someone on TV has just said if the wind had been in a different direction the plane would have flown over the George Washington Bridge then over New Jersey. Which means it would have probably come down in a pretty built up area.

Re: Plane crash in NYC
Press is reporting everyone off plane; glad the Hudson isn't frozen.
