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.
