A US Airways plane went down in the Hudson River minutes ago. the plane has sixty passengers on it. It was on it's way to North Carolina. The plane struck a bird. It is really cold here today, and for the people to be in the river is really terrible. They are in the process of rescuing passengers now.
Let's pray for these people.

I'm watching it on the news right now. They said they have 151 passengers and was headed for Charlotte, North Carolina. The pilot said he hit a flock of geese and he landed it in the river to avoid crashing into a highly populated area. I'm glad that he did that because it could have been even more devastating. Today's the coldest day since last year, freezing. I hope everyone gets out safely. The news guy said that it would only take around 15 minutes for someone to perish by exposure to the elements.

Ok now the details are changing. I guess you'll get the exact details later on since it just happened. They said that the NYPD said they don't believe that anyone is left on the plane and that everyone's out. I hope they're right.

Yeah, my details may be a little sketchy, because at first they were think it might be part of a movie.
It is still really early to get the full and correct details.

I have flown before, actually four times, and each time I was hesitate about it. I am so happy too, that everyone was okay, but it was sooooo cold here, and I can imagine how it was in/near the river.

I hope they're able to get everyone out safely. I wish that would be the case but at the same time I have a bad feeling it won't be. But I will be praying for the best.
