The video isn’t coming up. All I see is a small box with a red X in it.

ATTENTION Internet Explorer Users: For some reason the video does not appear here in IE. It works fine in Firefox. You can go directly to the NBC New York site and view it there.

Fox News is reporting that an ATC controller has been suspended for using his cell phone and a supervisor suspended for leaving the control room during the accident. I find that interesting since I thought that section of the Hudson was a low altitude VFR corridor of some kind.

Anybody around here ever fly that area?

Personally, I am surprised the Helo operator would be using aircraft without a traffic avoidance system. They aren't fool proof, but they are really handy in dense traffic areas.
