The Airbus A320 - Charmed Life?

Plane lands in the Hudson river (US Airways) - A320

Plane busts a wing but somehow manages to avoid crashing catastrophically (Lufthansa) - A320

This plane leads a charmed life! Granted, in both scenarios it took skill, grace under fire and rapid decision-making to get these birds down safely.

Odd co-incidence, thought I’d share the correlation. More about the A320 here.
