11.A young Australian woman's trip of lifetime took an unexpected turn into the freezing Hudson River on 15January 2009.Perth singer Emma Cowan,26,traveling overseas for the first time,was leaving New York after a week of sightseeing when the pilot of an Airbsu was forced to ditch into the Hudson.The plane lost power in both engines just minutes after take-off from LaGuardia Airport outside New York City.Initial reports from the Federal Aviation Authority(FAA)suggested the plane's engines stopped after it hit at flock of birds.All passengers and crew survived the crash.
Me.Cowan emerged from a rescue raft,wet and cold,but uninjured.Afterwards,Ms.Cowan managed a brief chat to her mother Wendy at their Swan View home.She said,"Mum,can you believe I've survived a plane crash?I don't really believe it had sunk in what a miracle this is."The young woman has lost all her luggage and travel documents,and a laptop of music backing tracks.
"But,as she said to me,it was the choice between the lifejacket and the purse,"Mrs.Cowan said."The thought of treading water without a lifejacket would have been unbearable".
Mrs.Cowan said her eldest daughter had carefully planned the trip for two years and intended to visit friends in North Carolina.
The holiday was not intended for work,but Emma was open to any opportunities that arose for singing in the US,Mrs.Cowan said.
"She'll continue to have a great time while she's over there."
The family,staunch(忠实的)Christians,say it was the hand of God that saved their daughter."It wasn't her time to go."
