Glad it had a happy ending. I guess I forgot planes floated. As for Canada geese, they are year round, right?--the new rats.

Actually it turns out to be a great add for Airbus because they developed a way to seal off the bottom part of the fusilodge which allows the plane to float longer. Heard it on NPR.

My friend's father used to be head of the pilots union and says the drills for water ditching are basically "just going through the motions" because the odds for survival are so slim. He adds that this is the first jumbo jet water ditch with no fatalities.
