If you have a few extra bucks lying around, the plane that landed in the Hudson River is for sale

Yes, by know you know the legend of the 'Miracle on the Hudson' US Airways jetliner but now you can own a lot or a little of the plane, which is being stored in Kearny on Bergen Ave. The engines have been taken off (no doubt to keep amateur jet pilots from buzzing the Manhattan skyline) but the landing gear, wheels, wings, along with the fuselage are all up for auction.

Be the first in your neighborhood to put an old jet up on blocks in your front yard. It'd make a great playhouse for the kids. You could host parties on it. You could pretend to give flying lessons. Just think of all the possibilities.
