The Miracle On The Hudson Plane that crash landed in the Hudson River after a bird strike to both engines with all passengers and crew surviving, is for sale! You can see the actual airbus a-320 aircraft’s listing page here.

Not that this plane could fit in the average garage or living room for display, but it would be a pretty cool thing to have! Sadly, the engines are not included in the sale.

Miracle On The Hudson Plane For Sale

No price is listed but they are taking sealed bids until March 27, 2010. The plane is being offered for sale by ChartisInsurance.com and the actual listing page is on AIGAviation.com . The actual listing page for the plane pictured above is here.

The page also states " Please contact Dan Akers at 404-249-1894 or at daniel.akers@chartisinsurance.com should you wish to attend the inspection or view the airframe records. The aircraft was treated with a corrosion inhibitor in the Summer of 2009."

I figured the insurance companies sell salvaged planes but I guess I didn’t think a high profile plane like this would sell at public auction. I’m sure it will fetch a pretty high price and for sure would be a pretty cool thing to own. From my understanding, you get everything pictured and it’s only be sold as a lot. Maybe it’s time for me to sell a couple domains and place a bid! :)

    I can see some organization like the Smithsonian buying this plane and then exhibiting it.

    I can’t see what a private owner would do with it, unless he/she has a lot of space.

    With some remodeling, it would make a great playhouse for a rich kid. (lol)

    Funny. The Google ad next to the article (at least on my screen, promises to help one get over “Flying Anxiety.”

    ;)
