This NTSB report which makes it sound like they have definitely ruled
this a bird strike.

Wasn't there a Navy cruiser in the area involved in a war games exercise?
I'm thinking Sully took a couple of surface to air missiles.

Interesting. Did I spot the captain in one of them, in a hard hat?

What I found interesting is that the radome and left side of the nose
was damaged. I assume that this was from the bird strikes.

Yes that was working great until NTSB pulled the plug on it about
1825Z today. Thanks for the link.

No.

My back channel sources tell me that one of the boats ran into it
during the passenger recovery phase. Also broke one of the cockpit
windows. Neither were damaged during ditching.

I have an excellent series of photo's (photographer unknown) as an
attachment. If anyone can take and set up so group can see let me know
and will e-mail to you.

This morning, the site started displaying a message that the NTSB
asked for the gallery be taken temporarily offline! It still has the
message as of a minute ago.

Why the hell would they do that!? And under what authority can they do
it?

Well the guy had access to the interior of the aircraft and obviously
the work site, he was either there with or without NTSB permission. If
with (he was working for them) I suspect the NTSB think they might
control the release of the images (and all are obviously public
information eventually). If not I suspect the NTSB might be
considering whether to tighten the vice the guys head is stuck in.

Nice photos though. Some are still reproduced here.

There are lots of "conspiracy theories" swirling around the A320.

Remain calm, all is well.
