Plane crashes in water: US Airways Plane Crashes In Hudson River.

TACA flight 390 operating from El Salvador to Tegucigalpa, suffered an accident upon landing at Toncontin Airport in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The plane inexplicably circled the city twice and it ran out of runway because it landed more than halfway down the length of the strip. Upon landing it could not stop before the end of the runway and crashed into a ravine, and a road, finally coming to rest broken into three parts while its nose crashed into the roadside embankment.
