All 155 passengers on the US Airways flight from LaGuardia to Charlotte that crashed in the Hudson River today are alive and well (one victim did suffer two broken legs but is doing well at this time). Pilots cite running into a flock of geese as the cause of the failed engines and crash. One person noted: [The pilot] had 2,900 ft., which translates to about 80 seconds, to survey the situation, devise a plan, and carry it out…. landing on water… framed by 12 million people… with NO power and limited control… without anyone getting seriously injured.
