Flying Again This Friday, Weather looks doubtful.

I'll be doing another Flight Lesson this Friday, but there is a 80% Chance of Rain, and Thunderstorms. It's looking more and more doubtful that I'll get to fly.


I was looking forward to flying on that day, due to the fact that on that same date just one year earlier "The Miracle On the Hudson" took place when Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, and First Officer Jeff Skiles made a forced landing in the Hudson River after the Airbus A320 they were flying lost all thrust in both engines due to a Bird Strike with a flock of Canadian Geese while climbing through 3,200ft on the initial climb out.
