The US Airways plane that made a splash landing in the Hudson River last week is now on a barge at a Jersey City marina where investigators plan to get a better look at the damage.

Crews pulled the plane from the icy water over the weekend.

The search for the missing left engine won't resume until Tuesday because ice floes in the river have made diving too dangerous.

Investigators have released some information from the plane's black boxes which they say confirms the pilot's account of the incident.

The NTSB says the Airbus A320 was 3,200 feet in the air and only 90 seconds into flight when the pilot remarked about birds.

The flight data recorder shows he lost power in both engines simultaneously.

Investigators also heard a "thump" on the cockpit voice recorder followed by a rapid decrease in engine sounds.

Over the next three and a half minutes the captain issued a mayday call.

He spoke to controllers about returning to LaGuardia or possibly landing at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey before reporting he was going to land on the Hudson River.

The NTSB says the whole exchange was very calm and a testament to the crew's experience.

Meanwhile, the crew from US Airways Flight 1549 is asking the media to respect their desire not be interviewed at this time.

Pilot Chesley Sullenberger, co-pilot Jeff Skiles and the three flight attendants issued a joint statement today.

They say they're willing to do interviews when the time is right.

The statement also included a thank you to the public for the overwhelming support, praise and well wishes they've received.

Sullenberger, his family and his crew will be attending Tuesday's inauguration as guests of Barack Obama.
