This doesnt seem like another miracle on the Hudson at all. This is really sad :(

Heard about it. It's not uncommon. NYC is the most crowded airspace in the US. When you have more planes, you're more likely to get accidents.

Gosh, this would've been a site to see from the Staten Island Ferry. Good thing I was in NYC before this happened. :(

Exactly. The odds of any accident is still extremely high. Has TWC made a fuss over this? Glad I tuned out after 12
