Kudos to the crew of this US Airways airliner

Apparently, after having both engines disabled by a flock of geese, the crew of the US Airways airliner made a snap decision that they couldn’t possibly return to any airport, they didn’t want to come down in a populated area, and they intentionally (and successfully) negotiated a [i]crash landing[/i] in the Hudson River.

No one was killed.

Well done to the crew of that aircraft.
