b_pappy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) A parade of sorts for our favorite aircraft, after it landed in the Hudson and was recovered, a parade in downtown NJ for the aircraft fuselage. Actually they are just towing off to some site, but pretty cool pics of it being towed through town.

Saturday it was transported through the streets of New Jersey to a storage warehouse. Awesome. US Airways Flight 1549 Towed Through New Jersey <hr class="clearer"> The plane was transported on a huge flatbed trailer operated by J. Supor & Son Trucking & Rigging Company after the wings and tail section were removed for transport on another trailer. The operation took place on blocked streets from the marina in Jersey City where it was parked to its final destination, Supor Industries in Harrison. It'll stay there for 18 months for the National Transportation Safety Board investigation. A sight like this ranks pretty high on our "stuff you'd don't see every day" meter.
