Sure, although I'm not sure "conventional wisdom" states that
each engine ingesting a bird simultaneously is all that likely
either.


Yea,h it is actualy.



I'm not sure if you expect bird remains in an engine that lay at
the bottom of the Hudson for a week, but there should be
blade damage consistent with sucking a bird if the double-bird
theory is correct.


not neccesarily.

Its the 'magic bird' theory!

See, the bird first scared the aircrew, then was sucked through Eng1,
expelled at .95 mach where it then was carried up and over the plane
to the other engine where it hit John Connolly in the wrist.

Nah, to simple.

I think I heard from a friend who saw it on the internet at his
cousin's house that Dick Cheney was wheeling through Central Park with
a black box that had a big red button labelled "Set off airborne
thermite grenades on flight 1549".

JUST LIKE 9-11 !!!



Oh no! Don' tgive them ideas! Those fukkers give me a headache.
