    I thought for sure they had scrapped this plane as most airlines do after crashes but, I'm happy they kept it and are displaying it. It truly is a reminder of the dedication and highest level of a pilot and crews determination to make sure their passengers make it home to their loved ones and a tribute to them. Awesome. Just awesome.

    and no one stepped up to claim it. So it got sold off for scrap metal. SHAME on Canada!

      The brilliant Airbus saved all those passengers and crew. The flight crew did a good job. But Sully would have crashed the aircraft. The Airbus auto flight system took over from the pilot in order to carry out a perfect landing on water. In fact if the crew had carried out the full ditching procedure, no water would have entered the cabin at all. Sad to say it was the American pilots organisation that stopped Sully from praising the Airbus. Sad boeing lot.

      They could've moved it down the interstate. It would be oversize with an escort. The 737 fuselages are hauled on trains from Kansas to Washington for final assembly. SpaceX moves the first stage Falcon 9 rockets from California to Texas all the time on trucks and those things are probably even bigger. I've seen them on the road.
