As the Agency of Record for Airbus Americas, Xenophon Strategies provided crisis communications and ongoing media support to the company in the wake of the “Miracle on the Hudson,” when an Airbus A320 operated by US Airways as Flight 1549 struck a flock of geese and safely landed in the Hudson River without any fatalities.
William Langewiesche, an acclaimed international correspondent for Vanity Fair and former pilot, wrote an in-depth article for the magazine after the incident which he has expanded into a book titled Fly by Wire: The Geese, the Glide, the Miracle on the Hudson. The book has already received critical praise for its depth and insight.
“The last time we worked together, Xenophon helped produce a strategic plan that ultimately transformed a bankrupt technology company with a stock option probe into a successful $2.1 billion acquisition.”
