This is how it happened, according to cnn, yahoo and abc:
US Airways Flight 1549 carrying 155 passengers took off from N.Y.'s LaGuardia Airport for Charlotte, N.C., and shortly after collided with a flock of birds, causing an explosion on the left wing of the plane. Pilot Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger III who helmed the flight thankfully managed to land the plane on the cold Hudson River. A few minutes later, ferries, the Coast Guard, and other boats came to the rescue. According to some passengers, they were on the verge of panic, but somehow, some people took leadership and calmed everyone down, and they decided to evacuate the women and children first.
Everyone survived. Well done, everyone!
Thank God there are still miracles.
