http://edition.cnn.com/2009/US/01/15/ne ... index.htmlA few minutes after take off, the airplane, leaving from New York's LaGuardia Airport, had it's engines set aflame over New York city, due to a flock of birds flying into both engines. The US Airways plane made a 180 degrees turn, after which the pilot, Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger, went in for a crash landing in the Hudson River. Of the 155 passengers, 15 were injured, but none are in any life threatening danger. Well, I know what company I'll be flying with in the future...

Is that a compliment or not?
On another note, bird strike at such altitude is just bad luck,
