Airplane crash-lands into Hudson River; all aboard reported safe

The plane entered the water Thursday afternoon after a failed takeoff, the FAA says.
A US Airways plane with 155 people on board ditched into a chilly Hudson River on Thursday, apparently after striking at least one bird upon takeoff from New York's LaGuardia Airport, according to officials and passengers.
Everyone on board was accounted for and alive, officials said. About 15 people were being treated at hospitals and others were being evaluated at nearby sanitary posts.
Flight 1549, headed to Charlotte, North Carolina, was in the air for less than three minutes, according to FAA spokeswoman Laura Brown.
