It's wonderful how the pilot landed the plane & how everyone was rescued quickly. Glad no one got hurt!

Considering that there were SO many additional things that could have gone wrong, this outcome is fantastic, Kudos to the crew, passengers (for staying calm and following instructions) and, to all the rescuers. Job well done!

I was in the shower in Jersey City where I reside and I received a text from a friend saying a plane crashed into the Hudson River. Instantaneously I felt the emotions and sensations of a terrible morning we all here in the residing New Jersey / New York area felt when the planes hit our towers 7 vivid years ago. It was fear, shock, disbelief and an unbelivable and unexplainable shared closeness and worry to everyone in our area. I made two phone calls to my parents and a friend before getting out the shower alerting the news and to turn the news channel on. All in all to everyone's relief a tragedy had been averted and a miracle had took place.There was nothing simple and routine about the occurrence that took place in the Hudson River yesterday afternoon, from the Pilot to rescue personnel and the quick responses from neighboring city efforts, it was an absolute success and miracle. On TV the sight of a large passenger plane floating on our Hudson River seemed surreal but the sirens of emergency service units screaming and racing by my home made it feel very real! The immediate exposure to this incident of a plane in our area crashing was frightenly reminiscent of 911 and do not look forward to anything like this again. I am happy that all those lives were saved by the wits and professional experience of a veteran pilot who is nothing short of a bonafide hero! He literally turned a sure tragedy into an amazing impressive safe landing that saved the lives of so many and simultaneously ensured confidence in our air travel pilot professionals. The rescue responders are Heroes as well because there was nothing simple or customary about the weather conditions and site location of the emergency rescue operation...... it was truly a miracle on the Hudson! Our cities are composed of truly amazing caring people.

This story is truly remarkable, not only does it show signs of a miracle but the biggest blessing from the lord. He not only watched over these passengers, crew and staff but also guided the pilot and co-pilot to land that plane safely. This is the beautiful work of the lord showing us that we are always protected by him and his loving angels and that he is always there listening to our prayers!!!

As an EMT myself, I know that being pepared for disasters is so important. Continuous training is a must, whether you work as an EMT or a flight attendent. The outcome of this accident is proof of a highly trained crew. Excellent jobs by everyone involved!!
-
God was so mercy on them,so thanks God and thanks to the Pilot.
-
i know that a teacher at my school how was my 7th grade social studies. his mother and sister were on the plane and i'm glad that they are safe now. the pilot is a hero.
-
Yes the pilot did a wonderfull thing, but, I can't help but to give all honor and glory to the Lord above!THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!!
-
Pilot, New York emergency teams and citizens are all heroes !!!! Truly is a miracle on the Hudson. So glad everyone is alright!!
-
God was certainly with the pilot and people aboard.

what about the co-pilot ? isn't he a hero too
-
Hello am a captain in the bahamas, i would like to say it was a great job what the crew did. For flyin a A320 there are two pilot, an they both have there fair amount of work. So its not fair to jus praised just one person . Praise the both of them because with out the co pilot the captain would have had a much greater task on his hand. So as a captain i would like to well done to the entire crew on the board the A320.

What a Great an Awesome God we have who promises he will never leave nor forsake us and that He's a very present help in time of trouble. I truly believe He's the one fully responsible for delivering the pilot and passengers from being a what could have been a horrible death. I cant help but think of how many times God was called upon during their time of turmoil...ex "Oh God...." and He being faithful listened and responded. Let the Glory be to God for he gives and takes away and this time all what given another chance :) There is no other name given by which we must be saved....Jesus!!!
-
It show's how this pilot , his crew and all those that came to the rescue take their job seriously and perform to the best of thier ablitly , i also have to say that the passenger's were blessed to have someone with great control and God was on thier side.
-
That is absolutely miracle from GOD. No one can deny about that. God give a wisdom to the pilot therefore the pilot can save all passengers and crews' life. Thank to GOD and the pilot and the crew.
-
To those of you that were on that plane shortly after its accident I wanted to let you know if your reading this that we ( The body of Christ) was praying for you and I am glad to see that all of you is well. Thanks be to God. :)

As an ex-flight attendant, now more than ever, I will proudly wear my T-shirt which states,

Flight crews are re-trained yearly for exactly this type of disaster. As an ex-flight attendant, I will proudly wear my old T-shirt which states
"A flight attendant is here to save your a.., not to kiss it!" Irene, Tampa, FL -

A tribute to emergency preparedness!
-
I would like to know if maybe the other peeps that are airline employees deserve props such as the stewards from the media
-
Why can't you just let people be uplifted by the miracle of all the passengers surviving and the plane coming down safely without having to show footage of planes that crashed, passengers that did not make it in other instances...was it NOT newsworthy enough? Not enough sizzle? It is appauling that we cannot just be allowed to embrace GOOD NEWS.
-
I am a reservation agent for US Airways, thou we never want or dream of an airliner making an emergency landing or crashing, yesterdays event has made me extremely proud of my job and my fellow employee's. Captain "Sully", his crew the passengers and NY rescue are all heros...see more

i thouqht it wass Krazii how no1 died N waa happened ...well waa kan u saii birds will be birds ritee?
-
This is truely a "Miracle"! I would bet to say that God has a plane full of believers today...
God put that hero on that plane yesterday. There are angels in this world and they just might be you. Maybe God is just tapping us on the shoulder to say,"Remember me?" -
The comment that no american passenger airliner has ditched is incorrect. In October 1956, a Pan American Boeing Stratocruiser ditched half way between Honolulu and San Francisco. All passenges & crew survived.
-
thank God no body hurt,and also we have to thank our her the pilot,
-
Talk about a miracle!
The Pilot is really good at His job. No doubt that His skills and quick thinking, saved all His passengers lifes ! It is unheard of a plane crash,where everybody survives ! The team effort to save everyone was astonishing ! -
that pilot should be able to retire with full benifits today for what he did. He just achieved a lifetime of work.God bless him.
-
The pilot, flight crew, ferry boat crews were all fantastic! There were definitely angels on the wings of that aircraft. God Bless everyone!
-
It is a miracle. If it had been any later or earlier that the jet would have come down the results would have been a disaster. So the timing was also a miracle too. The pilot was a hero but I think there was definiately angels watching over these people too.
-
I think Sully deserve's more than The Person of the Week, He should Person of the Year He's One Man Who saved 150 People, now instead of Three Beating Heart's of His Family, and His Own, He's has another 150, Amy

The pilot's a heroe and a genius. He deserves more than an award for what he did. the rescue team also did a very nice job but as for the pilot he was awesome.
