A hydroplane made an emergency landing in New York's East River on Sunday, resulting in two minor injuries. The aircraft, a Kodiak 100, carried eight people—six passengers and two pilots—who were all rescued by emergency services. According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the pilot had to descend urgently due to an issue with the plane's wing strut. The FAA stated that air traffic controllers were not providing services to the aircraft at the time of the incident and has launched an investigation into the cause. The plane was later moved to a dock after being seen floating vertically with one wing partially submerged. This incident occurred shortly after a day of heavy river traffic in New York, which included military ships and historic sailboats celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States. A similar incident involving a hydroplane occurred in the same river three weeks ago, but no injuries were reported then.
