US Airways Flight 1549
On January 15, 2009 US Airways Flight 1549 took off from New York City's LaGuardia Airport bound for Charlotte, NC with 155 passengers on board. Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, 57, was forced to ditch flight 1549 into the Hudson River after the Airbus 320 struck a flock of Canadian Geese causing both engines to lose power. Unable to return to either LaGuardia Airport or the nearby Teterboro Airport in New Jersey, Sullenberger successfully made an emergency landing in the Hudson River along Manhattan's West Side. All 155 passengers on board survived.
In this "Miracle on the Hudson" recreation, Scene Systems used data-analysis, modeling, animation, rendering, post-production and synchronized it to the real time US Airways Flight 1549's original voice recording turning it into a gripping video simulation.
