All passengers survive US jet crash

Dozens of passengers had a miraculous escape after a US airliner plunged into the Hudson River in New York. Passengers could be seen standing on both wings of the plane, which was upright in the freezing water. Large numbers of passengers wearing yellow life jackets were pulled from the water and taken on board ferries to safety. Some of the passengers who had been standing on the plane's fuselage were not even wet when they were rescued. One told CNN: "I was standing on the left wing for a little while. I hope none of us ever have to experience it again. I think everyone got out of the plane. I think everyone survived and that's miraculous." The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said US Airways Flight 1549 took off from LaGuardia Airport to Charlotte, North Carolina, before crashing into the water off Manhattan. The an Airbus 320, came down after flying into a flock of birds. FAA spokeswoman Laura Brown said: "The flight took off at 3.26 eastern time. We believe it was airborne for three minutes after take-off when it crashed into the Hudson River. Former BA pilot Eric Moody told Sky News the pilot had performed a "textbook ditching". He said: "That very rarely happens, unless you are near a runway. Whoever has flown that has done a really good job."
