“Miracle on the Hudson” Plane Takes Scenic Route

Look what was rolling through Maryland yesterday. The Cumberland Times-News got a great front-page photo of the “Miracle on the Hudson” plane as it passed through town en route to the Carolinas Aviation Museum in Charlotte, North Carolina. The 120-foot body of the plane made its way down Interstate 68 yesterday; the wings were shipped separately.

The Charlotte Observer says the journey wasn’t completely smooth sailing. The plane body got stuck at an intersection in Jersey and couldn’t proceed until a traffic light and a fence were removed.
