    Some things to consider. Was the bird strike on 1 engine and the other erroneously shut down?
    What does the passengers say on both sides?

    Not “a” bird… many. Think about how many flights there are every day, and how many bird strikes, the chances of a double engine failure are slim. Very luck that this was a happy ending!!

    Had the winds been …
    Had the winds been about 10-15 mph. greater, the chop of the river, would of had a significant impact on this scenario.
    Great pilot, optimal weather conditions, slow river traffic , an Air-bus aircraft, newer model, that had a water tight option built in.
    Had any of these factors differed, this would of been a typical air crash result.

    20% skill 80% luck. I’m sure the survivors will take it whatever.

    I would put it more like 80% skill and 20% luck.

    It is always difficult to determine the ratio between skill and luck. Einstein used to say that Genius is 10% ispiration & 90% perspiration, however I think there is no success without luck, or skill & no Genius without inspiration, or perspiration. Thank-you both for commenting.
