Just before 3:30 p.m., the plane took off for Charlotte, North Carolina, and soared high above the city’s skyscrapers. Two and a half minutes later, passengers heard a huge boom. It quickly became clear that something was terribly wrong. A collision with a flock of birds caused both engines to fail. In a matter of seconds, Captain Sullenberger made the decision to land the plane wherever he could. His best option then was the icy water of the Hudson River. Captain Sullenberger told the crew and passengers to brace for impact. Then, he guided the aircraft onto the Hudson’s narrow waterway. The plane landed without a serious incident, but the danger was not over yet. As freezing water began rushing into the cabin, passengers rushed out onto the plane wings to await rescue. Most plane crashes do not end with cheers of joy. But thanks to the quick thinking of Captain Sullenberger, 155 souls were saved.
