Sounds very bad. From all crash investigations I've seen on National Geographics, when airliners lost all their hydraulics - it always was a very hard crash landing :/

probably the plane is setting an optimized aproach for the kind of manueverability limitations they have. They will be late on the schedule for sure.

There have been a couple of successful landings without hydraulics, ie DHL Airbus A300 in Baghdad 2003. Also systems for automatic throttle control has not been implented because the risk for complete hydraulics failure has been considered to low.

 

edit,

 

It went well, they did not think it was a complete hydraulics failure.

I expected it turned out Ok after they stopped coverage on the story. The only news worth reporting is bad news apperently. Thats the media for you.

It has little to do with the media and much to do with human nature. Bad news sells newspapers, always has, always will, and there are sound reasons why our fascination for bad news might be genetically hardwired. It's part of a survival strategy; we pay close attention to bad things that happen in case they help us survive ourselves in the future.

 

Of course modern mass media, like so much of the modern world (food, consumerism, etc.) is probably far too good at appealing to our baser instincts. However we don't *have* to consume the bad news/large fries/latest gadget... we just usually choose to.

 

Anyway, glad the aircraft made it down ok.

I wonder if they will start telling the good news if Dunkin' Donut's sponsors the Page 1 article.
