"Miracle on the Hudson" Plane Had Engine Problems 2 Days Before River Landing

Filed under: Icky Icky Poo

Hope it wasn't one of the reasons why the plane malfunctioned on January 15th!

According to a new report, the US Airways airbus that had to make a miraculous landing on the Hudson River experienced an engine compressor failure two days earlier, said the National Transportation Safety Board.

On Monday, the board's examination of the Airbus 320's maintenance records show "there was an entry in the aircraft's maintenance log that indicates a compressor stall occurred on Jan. 13."

The compressor, or fan, draws air into the engine.

The airbus had a different pilot that day, and the NTSB will interview that pilot to learn more about the incident.

So far, NTSB investigators have not uncovered "any anomalies or malfunctions with Flight 1549 from the time it left the gate at LaGuardia Airport on Jan. 15."

A full investigation of the incident will take at least a year to complete.

      On "Rob Pattinson Bumming Around " post, when you responded to #95 Epic's question for you with comment #114, you forgot to remove the fake Leona's Ghost name and avatar.
      When you placed comment #114 you've made the same mistake.

      The greatest
      President
      in history
      Barack Obama
      saves every life
      in Hudson
      River plane
      crash!
      .

      by Dink T. Koolaide
      THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA
      CENTER FOR OBAMA WORSHIP
      .January 16th, 2009
      .

      When Airbus A320 plunged into the icy
      water of New York City's Hudson River,
      The Chosen One Barack Obama saved
      each and every life,
      sources claim.
      .

      "The passengers were scared at first,
      but then we all remembered Barack
      Obama was our new President.
      Just the thought of how cool under
      pressure Barack is gave us all a sense
      of calmness and well being.
      We exited the plane calmly while
      chanting "Barack Barack"
      over and over like a mantra.
      That man among men saved our
      lives, we are sure of it,
      all of us agree on that."
      The unknown male or female
      source asserted.
      .

      Another person who was not on the
      plane or in NYC at the time told our
      reporters,
      .

      "We - the passengers i mean -
      saw a vision of Barack Obama
      above our heads,
      with a halo around his
      handsome well groomed head.
      .

      He told us calmly,
      in that hypnotic voice of his,
      to calmly exit the plane and
      that he would rescue us by
      sending boats to pick us up.
      .

      We exited the plane and
      boats did pick us up -
      just as the vision said
      would happen!
      I am so glad I and all of my friends,
      neighbors, relations, and everyone
      I know voted for Barack Obama!"

      Stop referring to this as a "miracle." It wasn't a miracle. It was a cool head and great training. Jesus just sits back and does nothing when people pray for their lives. Just ask the folks in the World Trade Center towers. Oh, that's right. You can't. They're dead.



    29. 29

      As the plane took off a bird flew through one of the rotor blade thingies on the side and it cause the engine to produce flames though these quickly went out. No one even said a thing about the bird

      If that's true then it's really scary, to think that we trust in those airlines and they care more about their peanuts bags than real ppl.
