All the news coverage of the plane ditching into the Hudson River yesterday has sparked one of those discussions in the office ...

If they have life jackets on planes in case of emergencies, why don't they have parachutes on cruise liners?

That was awful and lucky at the same time...what they should do is really close LaGuardia is what they should do...

Or stop all the birds flying around and in New York?

Since we can't possibly do that...I'd say close LaGuardia...it's just an awful airport in general...birds fly over other airports too...there must be a way to protect the planes from bird attacks...geez...doesn't it make you feel sad that Hitchcock is dead???

One report said it was a flock of geese. I doubt there's anything that you do to a jet engine to protect it from that, that won't also stop the airplane from getting off the ground ...

Having been attacked by a canada goose once I can understand why an airbus didn't stand a chance!

**allrevvedup** · 16 Jan 2009, 18:08

you have wings?

*AndyK* · 16 Jan 2009, 18:10

No. Which is my point.

**allrevvedup** · 16 Jan 2009, 18:21

in all seriousness, it shows you how well that pilot did because landing with two engines out is unheard of...from what i was told by a few people today

*AndyK* · 16 Jan 2009, 18:22

The guy is rightfully a hero.

belladonna-took · 17 Jan 2009, 00:17
