US AIRWAYS FLT. 1594 SALVAGE PHOTOS These photos were taken by the crane operator lifting the Airbus out of the Hudson River. He is a member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary... They lifted the airliner out of the Hudson... It's now being looked at in the port of Jersey City ...
Note that only one engine was sheared off, not both... And considering that landing in water is like landing on concrete, not much damage to the Airbus fuselage... Must have been one great splash landing.
