US Airways plane crashes into Hudson river

[tre]

haha, it's funny.

It's scary when you consider people like me used to make parts for airplanes.

And I used to put together service manuals for them.

Wow, I'm surprised we're all still alive.

I test out the barf bags for them.

Both engines broke off during the crash so that made the plane considerably lighter, so that helped it stay somewhat buoyant. Also those Airbus A320 planes have a ditch switch which shuts off all external intakes, ports, etc. to make it a bit more water tight.

I feel like I just watched Raise The Titanic all over again. I was really waiting for Sean Connery to pop into a frame or two.

Im just amazed that its practically still in one piece.

I was too. You can see the cracks on the nose. I wonder if there are any birds stick out of it.

From what I read there were no animals on that flight

They probably didn't have any. Most airlines won't allow the shipment of dogs if it is hotter than 70 and colder than 50. So for most areas it gives you like a 3-4 month window that you can actually crate a large dog on a plane.

They tried to escape the rising water, but being crated could only turn in frantic circles as they eventually became submerged. Confused and afraid, they inhaled lungfuls of water. In their last moments they kicked and thrashed as darkness embraced them.

 

[Sarcasmo]

Bah, you guys are no fun.

 

[Floptical]

I checked a few airline sites and it most are under 45 or above 80. This is for most breeds if it is a pub orsnub nose dog and cats then it's 70.

I hear that Hudson River Dogcicles are a hot ticket item right now.

The pilot of this airplane was given a job offer from Daddy Warbucks / Virgin Air for double his salary and a spot in the space program thingy.

Who gets rewarded for flying a plane into a river? Honestly.
