Miracle in New York

Truly amazing that no one was seriously hurt when a US Airways Airbus A320 ditched into the Hudson River after striking multiple birds.

They were able to evacuate the plane within 90 seconds. Rescue boats were on the scene immediately.

There have been no fatalities among the major US airline carriers since 2006. Today was a close call. Luckily, in this case the pilot was a veteran of 28 years with the airline and is an expert in catastrophic risk management.
