Brought down by birds, a plane was forced to pancake into the Hudson river - with NO loss of human life! Some truly great piloting! Article on the pilot here

Very lucky the plane touched the water in the right way. Otherwise the situation would be 100%, 0% landing and not 50-50 like it now is.

Ooh I read about it. Was it the one about the pilot being so skilfull, he didn't hurt any out of the 8 million people he'd passed?
