Captain Michael Connor, the commanding officer of NAS Jacksonville, said during a press conference that the passengers were a mix of civilian and military personnel flying from the Guantanamo Bay military station in Cuba.
He acknowledged that the crash could have ended much worse for those on board.
"I think it is a miracle," he said. "We could be talking about a different story this evening."
Passenger Cheryl Bormann told
CNN that the plane flew through lightning and thunderstorms on the way to Jacksonville before it tried to land. She also described how "the plane bounced and screeched and bounced some more" before it came to a "complete crash stop" in the river.
