Plane Crash in Husdon River 16th Jan 2009

I think there is YouTube of this plane ingesting a big ole goose in the No. 2 engine -- righthand side -- just on rotation to take off. Big fire, then on-off-on-off orange flame shooting out the pipe. That says that engine was totally wrecked. Just saw the footage on Fox News.

But I think with the ferryboats it was more a case of everybody seeing the plane going in the river: "Holy shit, it's crashing! Get over there!" Good thing the water was shallow. Ended up with all those people wading to safety along the wing.
