cant tell if its an E-175 or a bus?!

MSNBC, possible birdstrike. LGA-CLT, pilot reported hitting a flock of geese.

Several sources on tv are now saying they hit a flock of birds.

Anyone confirm?

A320 according to the news

Airbus 1549 LGA - CLT, possible bird strike. It is not E-175

Just heard it was departing from LGA and may have hit a flock of birds.

That would be a cold swim.... Hope everyone is alright.

With the freezing temp in the northeast, I hope everyone makes out okay... Said a prayer in silence.

They're saying 146 on board. Its floating well and all of those ferrys responded. They said the river has white caps on it so its not really that calm.

Hell of a good job.
