One of the passengers in the US Airways jet which crashed in New York's Hudson River has told how "people were bleeding all over".All 150 passengers and five crew survived the crash, though there were some injuries.
Jeff Kolodjay, from Norwalk, Connecticut, said: "The engine blew. There was fire everywhere and it smelled like gas."
He said the pilot announced the plane was going down and told passengers to brace for the impact.
After the plane landed on the water, he said: "People were bleeding all over. We hit the water pretty hard. It was scary."
"You gotta give it to the pilot, he made a hell of a landing."
The pilot brought the plane down in a cloud of spray in the fast-moving river, which runs to the West of Manhattan island.
