Only reason it made news, was because the wife of the Mobile NBC affiliate station's executive producer was onboard the flight.

Those waters are Sully's territory. You don't even want to know where and how they found the man who tried to kayak in them.

If the guy is airborne, and the aircraft isn't showing any anomalies, why not continue?
I would guess it would be if there wasnt something wrong, you wouldn't want to be at flight levels and find out... (As I answer my own question)

I remember ACA had a nice birdstrike, but I think it came before V1, so they aborted. The bird hit the junction of the window and the nose, which was a weak spot. The cockpit had a nice paté-o-bird all over it.

Interesting decision to burn off fuel and land. I would have continued flight to New York and landed in the Hudson per standard bird strike procedure.

I can only add the line from Airplane "good luck were all counting on you." :cwm27:

In today's litigious society, no way you are going to continue. Too many downsides and not enough upsides.
Years ago, a 767 out of LAX( http://www.airsafe.com/events/models/b767.htm) had an engine surge and the crew, meaning to turn off the EECs hit the shutoffs. Both engines flamed out but the crew got them started and then continued to CVG. The pax sued claiming they were hostages and held in terror by an incompetent crew.
And of course, there was the BA 747 that lost an engine leaving LAX and continued and everyone, including the FAA, got their panties in a wad over that one.
