US Air Jetliner Recovery

Note that only one engine was sheered off, not both... And considering that landing in water is like landing on concrete, not a whole lotta damage to the Airbus fuselage... Musta been one great spash landing. These photos were taken by the crane operator lifing the Airbus out of the Hudson River, a fellow member of the CG Aux... They lifted the airliner out of the Hudson... It's now bein' looked at right here in the port of Jersey City ...
