NBC reporting it hit a flock of geese...they tried to land in Teterboro NJ but had to rely on the river instead

As usual most talking heads don’t know what they are talking about...as is the case with that report.

How long until we hear that global warming caused the geese to be flying around NYC rather than Florida?

If that indeed proves true, one wonders what the leftist anti-hunting crowd will have to say about the crash. There seems to be literally ZILLIONS of "resident geese" in that section of the country. They apparently no longer migrate and can be seen inhabiting many acres of rolling corporate parks alongside highways.

Deicing is critical and mandatory. Depending on the WX the ice can build just too fast.
