US Airways Flight 1549 - Finding the Missing Engine

It's taken a couple days since the crash last Thursday afternoon, but it appears that investigators have finally located the missing engine to hero pilot Captain Chesley B. “Sully” Sullenberger's US Airways Flight 1549 airplane in the Hudson River. The unusual "double bird strike", presumably a flock of geese, caused both of the jet's engines to shut down and force the successful water landing.

The picture above taken just minutes ago shows the search boats converging on the spot where the emergency landing occurred.
