Being from New York, Captain “Sully” Sullenberger is a hero for successfully crash landing into the Hudson River and saving over 100 lives. I decided to create a Homemade Captain “Sully” Sullenberger Unique Halloween Costume Idea to honor such a great person and pay tribute to someone who has gained such notoriety!
I made the costume from a 8 inch Sonotube and then did the tip and rear parts of the plane with chicken wire and paper mache. I created a square box to be the main section out of pine.
The biggest challenge was knowing that I would need to get through doorways so I put hinges on the wings so they folded up when needed. It was fun putting the little people on the wings and whoa the painting. Yikes. That took a while.
