ISNT THERE SOME KIND OF A SCREEN THAT CAN BE PUT IN FRONT OF THE ENGINES THAT CAN KEEP THE BIRDS OUT? YOU WOULD THINK THAT SOMETHING, SOME KIND OF A SHIELD COULD BE INTRODUCED TO THE AIRCRAFT INDUSTRY TO HELP PREVENT THIS.

Its a shame that your God wont take a few minutes and do something about the thousands of people dying in iraq and all over the world really. Why would He take time to save the folks on the plane that went down on the Hudson and ignore so many other things that could use his attention? get real...

Rich6666 GTZ280, not true, they have the instruments to put the fires out, the airplane wouldn't glide ////////////////////Rich, a fire due to a compressor stall is an external engine fire. Usually from the tailpipe. There is no way to extinguish that type of fire from the fire handle and the halon extinguisher bottles. The aircrafts engine fire protection is only designed to extinguish fires that occur beneath the engine cowlings. From the video, these engines were not on fire anyway. Perhaps only the initial fire-ball from the stall after the geese struck.

It was the Lord that guided that plane.Thank the Lord for seeing them to safety./////////////////////I guess the Lord had the day off for the poor souls on board Air France 447. I know, I know, it was his decision. It was meant to be. Yeah yeah. I know.

GTZ280, not true, they have the instruments to put the fires out, the airplane wouldn't glide back to the airport or to any of the nearest airports either so Capt Sullenberger made the correct desicision. Yeah he was just doing his job, but he did it so damn well, much better than people in the past, he is a hero, and very humble also. As a military aviator I have known many people you could call hero if the right things had happened. So great job to Capt Sullenberger, we can never hear too much about this man!

Why dont they put a HORN on airplanes so pilots can HONK and tell birds to GET OUT OF THE WAY? Then again, a HONK might be a Mating Call for Canadian Geese and attrack MORE. Hmmmmm. I will keep thinking about this.

This Captain certainly deserves the commendations he received. Hero? I wouldnt go so far but whatever it takes I guess. Personally I think he did his job , the job hes paid to do and did it well. Nothing more, nothing less. Conditions were right, and at the end of the day, people walked away from it.
