A probe is continuing into the cause of a plane crash on the Islands which left four people injured.
The Piper aeroplane was coming into land when it ran into a hedge just off the runway at St Mary’s airport.
Dr Adrian Rogers, 60, was flown by air ambulance to the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Treliske with a broken collar bone.
The other three passengers were treated briefly at St Mary’s hospital and were described by police as walking wounded.
The Department of Transport Air (Accident) Investigation Department is carrying out a probe.
Dr Roberts, from Exeter, said he thought there were problems after an attempted landing was aborted.
He told the BBC: “The plane sort of hit the ground, not hard, then took off a little bit. They aborted the landing, it went round, went up a bit, then veered round to the left, and then I could see through the window that we were coming down and going to crash … and we did.”
He added: “One obviously panics then, because you realised there was lots of kerosene and you’ve got to get out.
‘One couldn’t get out momentarily, but then we did get out; and then there was the delight of the pain.”
The airport was closed for a short time while the area was made safe.
