What great pilots!

This afternoon as many of you know by now, a plane loaded with passengers, hit a flock of Canadian geese on take off. Very quickly the pilots had one engine down and the other on fire. Trying to turn around was not an option, so this pilot headed for the Hudson River. The route is completely over the city and could so easily have become a horrible catastrophe. They brought this plane down perfectly, landing if you will, on the river! Ferry boats, police boats and private boats were on the scene immediately. Not one life was lost. The plane remained intact.
God IS good*

  1. Hi BJ, We've been watching it all afternoon on Fox News. That pilot deserves a medal of honor (or something like that). Amazing that nobody died. Praise the Lord.

  2. Praise the LORD is right! It appears now, that I'm not the only one who thought this was amazing.
