This was an amazing feat of courage and ingenuity.

Sully tells the story too.

The aircraft is in Charlotte, NC and is in the same condition it was when removed from the Hudson. Great exhibit. Skiles has returned to flying and also is rated fly the B-29 FIFI. Sully is retired by is writing, works to improve airline safety and appears on news shows as an expert.
