There's been interviews of plenty of people that watched the whole thing unfold. The pilot had time to radio coastguards to move boats as well.

I reckon there will be a good few videos, even off phones.

thats what i thought. if the crew of the boats were informed that they need to get out of the way then surely someone would have filmed it. i know that it may seem distasteful filming a plane crash but there is always somebody that would do it.

Wonder if the a/c will ever fly again.

It's absolutely astounding it didn't break up on impact!

Hmm, so all these recent air crashes (2 or 3 in a short matter of time?) - they've all been air bus's?

I have an air bus flight tommorrow, and on the 24th and on the 29th! Oh joy!

The Spanair was a Boeing, and the Quantas that went pop was a Boeing and all the Ryanairs that keep on de-pressurising are Boeings

A bird strike of that size isn't going to care what brand your plane is.

It isn't though, the big antenna is missing off of the north tower... Plus there's the fact that they were destroyed on the 11th September 2001 and that video was made on 15th January 2009

Wouldn't imagine so. Flood damage writes off cars easily enough.
