SQ Wings US Airways A320 Reg: N106US "Sully" "Flaps Down" L2236FD Scale 1:200

Product Description

On the afternoon of January 15, 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 lifted off from New York's LaGuardia Airport bound for Charlotte. Less than three minutes later, a flock of Canada geese struck the Airbus A320, knocking out both engines at just 2,800 feet over one of the most densely populated cities on earth. With no working engines and no airport within reach, Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger and First Officer Jeffrey Skiles guided the powerless airliner to a controlled ditching on the Hudson River. All 155 passengers and crew survived. The event would forever be known as the "Miracle on the Hudson" — and N106US would become one of the most famous airframes in modern aviation history.

SQ Wings now commemorates this iconic aircraft in precision 1:200 scale, capturing N106US in the classic US Airways livery she wore on that fateful day. The model faithfully reproduces the aircraft's distinctive grey-and-blue scheme, the US Airways flag tail, and accurate "N106US" registration markings.

As a debut-era 1:200 manufacturer, SQ Wings has built its reputation on highly detailed diecast craftsmanship — and this release is no exception. Expect crisp paint application, fine surface detailing, accurate panel lines, finely detailed landing gear, and a rolling-wheels assembly. The model includes a display stand, allowing collectors to display the aircraft in a flying configuration as it would have appeared moments before bird strike.

Today, the actual N106US is permanently displayed at the Carolinas Aviation Museum in Charlotte, NC — the city Flight 1549 was originally bound for. Adding this model to your collection means owning a piece of one of aviation's most extraordinary survival stories: a tribute to the skill of the cockpit crew, the professionalism of the cabin crew, and the resilience of the engineering that made the impossible possible.

A must-have for US Airways collectors, A320 enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the moments when aviation history was rewritten in real time.
