Hudson plane's engine recovered
Ok, so maybe the lawsuits won’t be coming. Investigators have found a “single” bird feather and soft-body impact on the engine. They are sending the engine in to take samples of the organic material that is left on the engines, hopefully it will come back positive for pigeon. The National Transportation Safety Board also verify that the plane’s right engine had a surge two days before but there are maintenance records that show it was repaired. So I guess all of this is coincidence that the same plane on the same flight would have its engines blowout. I guess that mean’s I should never fly an Airbus outta Newark. Boeing baby!!!

U.S. Airways pays passengers
Sounds like hush money to me. But U.S. Airways has issued out $5000 to help replace some of the items lost during the crash. It will take months to process all the luggage because first they have to weight them, let them dry for 8 weeks, then weight them again. All to make sure that there was proper weight distribution and other bullshit. Why don’t they skip all that and just check the faulty engine which shoulda been checked two days prior when the passengers on that flight heard the engine start to give up. I’ll be keepin tuned to this debacle as it drags on this year.

Hudson plane crash had previous issues
Some stories outside of crime usually just have a shelf life of one day. Happens and it’s done with. Well imagine my surprise when I read that the plane that crashed into Hudson had the same problems two days before. Passengers that were on the same plane and same route say that they heard the same loud bang and had the pilot tell them that they were turning around. But instead of turning around, the pilot just flew through it and blamed it on air compression shutting down the engine. Sounds fishy. I mean I really didn’t think that one or two birds would fuck up an engine, I thought it woulda diced them up (I assumed they were pigeons). Maybe this plane was just fucked up to begin with and if it turns out to be the same plane, I smell some lawsuits comin. Could you imagine if these people died? That would be the END of U.S. Airways. Even if they survived the lawsuits, nobody would fly them again.
