Two people are rescued after their plane crashes into the icy Hudson River off Yonkers

Two people including a 39-year-old New Jersey woman and her 43-year-old male passenger were rescued from their single-engine plane that went down into the Hudson River off Yonkers. After leaving the Trenton/Robbinsville airport, the duo were flying under visual flight rules and contact with air traffic control when their plane went down. However, the pair were wearing life vests and were able to get out of the plane before it sank. They left the hospital and were back at their homes on Monday night (January 28, 2013). Their identities were also learnt. The pilot was identified as Deniece Depriester Kok, a certified flight instructor. Her passenger was 43-year-old Christopher Smidt. Both of them are from New Jersey. If you know any thing about the plane crash, please share it with me on Opera or just leave a comment here.
