Looks like the aircraft is going under. Glad everyone got out okay. She's nearly completely submerged.
According to ACARS it "should" have been N106US
Hey Jones-ey! How have you been? Hope all is well.
Hearing otn he news that all is accoutned for, looks good.
FAA says everyone out safely. Amazing.
woohoo, good job on the flight crew's part...
From what I hear all are accounted for at this point in time...
airframes can be replaced, souls can't....

It looks like it came down right near the Intrepid! I wonder if they will tow it over to Pier 86 right behind the Concorde and prop it up for the NTSB investigation?
An amazing job by the flight crew getting her down in one piece!!

Running out of stuff to talk about, news coverage is getting annoying now..."why is the plane still floating?" "I DON'T KNOW, IT'S AMAZING!"
It's probably because it's tied up to a boat, they're not going to let it sink.
Haha unbleeped passenger interview on MSNBC:
Reporter: What was the landing like?
Passenger: Scary as s**t!
Is it really tied up to one of the boats nearby? It seems like an awful lot of weight to carry once the plane is no longer buoyant. According to airbus.com, it looks like the typical weight would be about 100,000 lbs. For a barge, that's not a big deal, but for a passenger ferry, I would be concerned.
as I walk about the office, I heard a reporter say it was a bird strike on BOTH engines.
C'mon now lady.
