US Airways Flight 1549 (AWE1549) was an Airbus A320-214 flying from New York’s LaGuardia Airport to a stopover at Charlotte Douglas International Airport that experienced an emergency water landing in the Hudson River. Pilots Captain Chesley Sullenberger and First Officer Jeffrey Skiles glided the plane to ditch in the river after multiple bird strikes caused both engines to fail. All 155 passengers and crew aboard the Airbus A320 successfully evacuated from the partially submerged airframe as it sank into the river; they were rescued by nearby watercraft. Several occupants suffered injuries, a few of them serious, but only two required overnight hospitalization. The incident came to be known as the “Miracle on the Hudson”, and Captain Sullenberger and the crew were hailed as heroes.
