    You know, I'm glad everyone is allright and all, but the media just overdoes it. I mean, I have heard in the past 30 minutes everything from a guy that was on standby for that flight to the biography of the pilot, along with the new 'hero of flight 1549' shtick. You keep on changing channels and it's the same .

    That's because the pilot saved the day; that guy is good

    Movie deal probably up for grabs.

    Pilot is a hero. No doubt.

    Kudos to "Sully"…But if he was so smart he would have been flying a Boeing & not some French Job that is so fragile it hits a bird & crashes…

    Later stories said that wasn't actually true. Sorry.

    A guy who was one of the last passengers off the plane helped a woman who was still on the plane with him. Also, another passenger admitted that people were jumping over seats and doing whatever they could to get to the exit first.

    Here's a similar incident, but my understanding is the plane caught birds in both engines!

    Except that the NYT Gossip Rag rarely knows the truth. Bird incidents with planes are not on the rise. They simply happen from time to time.

    No Sherlock.

    It's just almost exactly the same story the NYT had! I mentioned that because they are the leader in propaganda that others follow.

    Most stories are from the same sources.
