A 31-year-old certified flight instructor from Long Island and his 17-year-old student survived a dramatic emergency landing Monday night in the Hudson River.

New York State Police identified the instructor as Liam D'arcy, who works for Long Island Flying in Southampton. The teenage student, who was not identified, is from Locust Valley and has been training with D'arcy for about a year and a half.

Police say the two departed Long Island MacArthur Airport around 6:30 p.m. for a scheduled night training session. The student was flying for most of the trip, including a stop-and-go maneuver at Stewart International Airport around 7:30 p.m. Shortly after, near West Point, the crew reported engine failure.

Air traffic control audio captures the pilot declaring an emergency and saying, “We’ve lost our engine…We are going into the Hudson River.”

Investigators say D'arcy took control of the aircraft and made an emergency landing on an icy stretch of the Hudson about 200 feet from the City of Newburgh shoreline, roughly 2½ miles south of the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge.

State Police say after impact, both individuals were able to get out of the plane on their own. They walked approximately 150 feet across ice before swimming about 50 feet through frigid water to reach shore.

“The fact they made it to the shoreline is nothing short of a miracle,” said BCI Captain Brad Natalizio. “In my experience working many cases on the Hudson River, it’s not only the cold but the current as well.”

The pair were treated for hypothermia at a local hospital and later released.

Another pilot flying nearby heard the Mayday call and diverted to help locate the aircraft, relaying its position to first responders. Video provided to News 12 shows the plane illuminated and resting on ice in the river shortly after the landing.

Police say the incident appears to be accidental, and there are no signs of criminality.

Approximately 20 gallons of fuel remain inside the aircraft, but officials say there are no signs of leakage.

The National Transportation Safety Board has opened an investigation and is coordinating removal of the plane from the river. A preliminary report is expected within 30 days.
