So let's see, the engine sucked in birds, which caused the tail to fall off, then the engine fell off, the wing caught fire, and the plane came down in a populated area, straight down, with no time for even an emergency declaration from the cockpit. And the engine that sucked in those birds is the same engine the FAA had warned had an unsafe condition, for something other than birds, for which the engine is tested against prior to certification. oh, and the birds cause a crash in New York, on Veteran's Day, on the same day the Taliban are routed.

Somebody should check to make sure engine inspectors don't carry bird guts in with them.
