Plane Crashes Into Hudson River

By The New York Times

Watercraft are converging on a USAirways plane that is half-submerged in the Hudson River off the West 50’s of Manhattan.

According to Channel 4 television news, the plane apparently took off from LaGuardia Airport and was bound for Charlotte, N.C. and had 146 passengers and 5 crew members. The plane, according to the news report, may have hit a flock of birds. The pilot tried to return to the airport when the plane fell into the Hudson.

Television reports show several boats around where the plane is mostly submerged in the water.

One witness interviewed by Channel 4 said he saw the plane decending steadily without its landing gear down.

It was returning to land after hitting a flock of birds. No one is left on board according to Fox news. Both engines failed because they hit geese. . . . .
