Those were the exact words the pilot of the ‘miracle flight’ told air traffic controllers right before ditching the plane in the Hudson River. The flight attendants yelled, “Brace! Brace! Head down!”

Hi guys! That’s some great footage of the landing and rescue…! The pilot has amazing skills and every one of the passengers has him to thank for their lives.

I heard that the captain is from the Bay Area (!)

Who’s going to sue who, and for what?! Can Canada Geese be prosecuted?

They’re lining up alright just like vultures. I hope none of the survivors are foolish enough to actually sue. I would not be surprised if the airline has already made a payoff offer (as well as expenses of course).

I don’t know if it is true or just talk, but I have heard the PI lawyers (vultures) are already lining up to sue the airline (and probably the pilot as well).

If I was the Judge hearing any cases I would tell those lawyers to sue the birds that caused the failures—then dismiss the cases.

For those who doubt. I always tell people, especially those non believers, that miracles do happen every single day. The child who survives cancer, the car crash that no one could have lived through yet someone did. They are small news items next to the big ones but they are there everyday if you stop to look.

This was a miracle on a much larger scale and you have to wonder if there is a message in it for us. God Bless the pilot whose skill was taught to him by none other than our U.S. military. He was an F-4 pilot years ago and had 19,000 commercial airline hours logged. What a hero.
