Almost one year after the famous US Airways 1549 New York Hudson River emergency landing, Airbus A320-214 N106US (S/N 1044) was put on auction recently. The auction closes March 27 and is open to the general public. Bids can be submitted online. The wreckage is currently stored in Kearny, NJ – wings, vertical and horizontal stabilizers have been separated from the fuselage, the engines are not included in the sale.

I went onto the site with the auction on to see the final price it sold at, but it looks like they don’t display it! Would’ve been interesting to know.
If whomever ended up with it was smart … they would make an eatery out of it named “Lucky’s”
