Birds typically fold wings and dive when encountering airplanes,
your theory should do the same... |
Since we all have short memories when it comes to what ******in geese can do to an airplane...AirTran guppy in PHL, I believe 2007:

One more time: 1. The wings of the A-320 could easily handle the weight of 100 people on each wing even IF that wing wasn't being supported by the surface tension of the Hudson River's water. Not to mention the buoyancy of a wing that is half filled with air. 2. The warnings of "NO STEP" that you see on some wings is only for the actual area of the "NO STEP" placard. Those are generally localized areas of inter-wing subsystems that could be damaged by a person standing directly over them as the upper wing's skin will deflect a little. It is NOT a warning prohibiting you from stepping on the entire wing. 3. Jet engines suck in thousands of cubic feet of air per second - think enormous vacuum cleaners. Even at idle thrust they can suck a rock right off a taxiway. That's why airport surfaces are patrolled and kept as clean as possible. The fact that most of the birds were sucked into the engines is no surprise. It's quite normal. Most birds that do impact the nose or leading edges don't leave dents, but they do leave a lot of blood and guts. I assume that any blood and guts would have been blasted away by the impact and scrubbing forces of the aircraft impacting the river at 130+ miles per hour. Please return to the Kennedy assassination blogs. Thank you. Carl Carl, With regards to TruthSeuth: "the wheel is turning but the hamster is dead"...I don't think he'll ever get it. |

I also know that most commercial airliner wings have weight warnings about stepping on the wings... hundreds of pounds maximum if I remember correctly. http://johnsopinion.com/wp-content/u...03/stupid4.jpg |

... But I'm also not into coincidence theories, either. I'm VERY troubled by yesterday's ditching of Flight 1549. It doesn't make sense to me. Consider these points: - Apparently, a flock of birds knocked out two engines but didn't leave an impact on the nose (as you know much more flimsy than engines). http://usera.ImageCave.com/TruthSleu...-USAir.png.jpg - This picture is heavily Photoshopped... when you zoom in, you see all sorts of cut and paste artwork... even the USAir logo is pasted onto the plane. Why? Also in this picture are dozens and dozens of "survivors"... it's hard to count because the picture is so fuzzy and distant (a common theme... distant and fuzzy pics). How can more than 20 people stand on a wing and not collapse it? - Where are the closeup pictures... if you watch any of the coverage yesterday, all of the camera angles were distant shots... even with the media within hundreds of yards of the scene. Why? - As of this moment, I've yet to see a single video of the ditching... not one, And I've searched everywhere (including YouTube) -- how can this be? Everyone seems to have a cell phone these days... especially in New York. What about CCTV cameras from the Port Authority... someone has to have a video of this, yet we see nothing.

And, splash, it hit the water," said witness Barbara Sambriski, a researcher at The Associated Press. - The media is reporting, "It appears to be the first time that a large commercial jet liner ever has made a successful controlled landing into a body of water." Another coincidence. A "Miracle" is the media mantra about this. Can this plane really survive a ditching without nearly a scratch... really? I could go on and on with minor stuff, but I hope you get my drift. Your thoughts? First of all, YOUR ARE A CONSPIRACY THEORIST. There is no question about that. I bet you believe President Bush was behind the Sept. 11 Attacks to or Hurricane Katrina was a Military Experiment that went wrong. Second of all, you must have some set on you to Monday Night Quarter Back this thing. You should leave these discussions to ACTUAL pilots. |

There have previously been posts by lawyers and media posing questions and guys here aren't going to be drawn into that. Hence the put downs. You discount the fact that pilots at LGA and numerous eye witnesses saw this plane go down. If it was slow its because they either had no power, or minimal power and were doing everything they could to prolong flight. As far as I'm concerned, the crew were heroes and this was a miracle as I'm amazed a plane with under wing engines didn't come apart on impact.
I am not a lawyer nor a member of the media. I DESPISE both. I have no skin in this game. I don't know the pilots, crew or pax. I'm trying to figure this thing called life. It's not what it seems. The vast majority of the responses here actually make me think there's more to this... I was actually hoping my questions would get debunked. For the exception of the wing point... they haven't. |

remember that those winds can support that entire aircraft weight three to four times. (Read a half a million pounds) These wings are strong. Heck they have that many people on em when they are going mtc work.
It is also quite possible to have birds not hit the nose and go in to the engines. It appears that there were bird strikes above the flight deck windows. There is not conspiracy with it! |

What would you think if I started accusing you of hiding the truth from me?
I'm looking for your help to set me straight. I have budged... I'm not focused on the wings anymore -- thanks for that... but everything else doesn't make sense. And I just found this picture: http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/US...kelis.irpt.jpg Now it's showing emergency shoots on both sides... that's NOT what was shown on the live media videos. What in the world is going on here? |

I'm sorry, but you don't deserve the right to discuss yesterday's crash because you have clearly insulted a very difficult and trying time for the passengers and flight crew of flight 1549. Just because we are gifted with the "Freedom of Speech" in this country, that doesn't alleviate it us from our Responsibility to use it honorably. |
Thats because the slides seperate from the aircraft to become life rafts. Two of the slides were floating away from the plane when the people were picked up by a boat. Thats why the slides were missing. Seriously, give it up.

I can't believe it, but I am going to reply to this joker....
Where are the ferries in your last shot? This picture was taken probably right after they ditched. (looks like from another plane) There are two emergency CHUTES (spelling)these are detachable, and probably were detached as the ferries came, so they can get these pax (that's passengers). As far as the nose, that has alredy been pointed out that SOMETIMES the birds will fly down, thus missing the nose, yet getting ingested into the engines (also pilots probably pulled up to try and avoid them. BTW, what happened to the plane wreckage that flew into the Pentagon? What REALLY happened to TWA off Long Island? Also, I love your screen name. Kinda tells us about your personality traits. |

I leave right now if you show me a single authentic picture or video showing the emergency chutes being used as rafts. I've been looking at this very closely and I've not seen a single instance. Not one. I'm serious. I'll leave if you can show it to me. Because I can't find it. |

Wait a second, doesn't USAir have a few early A320's made of balsa wood and toothpicks? You know, before the French discovered metal? Those would not support all those people standing on the wing.

HE FIGURED US OUT!!! Okay Ile spill the Truth!!! Us pilots on this forum where involved in a huge cover-up with Dick Cheney! We even managed to fool (the ones not paid off) the MEDIA!!! BUT WE DID NOT FOOL YOU!!! So check this out!! We Took a mock up of the A320 and a group of us (had to play rock paper scissors to see who would be the pilot) from this forum had it pulled out in to the middle of the river and submerged it just below the surface….THEN!!! We snuck out in the next day in little boats and pulled the mock up a320 to the surface and all got in the wings and posed for pictures and had the paid off members of the media watching!!! That’s what happened!!! HE got us!!
