US Airways Plane Crash in the Hudson River

CNN has a live shot of the plane floating next to a tugboat, with a few ferry boats close by.

A survivor is saying that people just left from the wing of the plane onto rafts and boats, and that he thinks everyone got off the plane.

Any word on how well the seats worked as flotation devices? I've always had my doubts.

If they were Canada geese, I hope we retaliate quickly with military action against those Canucks.

Bravo on calling them "Canada geese" rather than "Canadian geese". :bow:

Two survivors have credited the pilot with doing a great job. One said the pilot did say "Prepare for impact" just before they hit the water. He also said that it was only about a minute from the time the plane hit until he was outside the plane.
