DAL8801 Hyd Failure at KJFK 080915
« on: August 11, 2015, 07:52:13 PM »
Delta Airlines Flight 8801, a Boeing 757-200, suffered a hydraulic failure while on final approach to KJFK rwy 13L.  They declared an emergency and continued, landing safely.  However, upon landing they were unable to clear the runway which caused some scrambling on ATC's part to deal with other aircraft on approach to the same runway.  Clip is edited for transmissions relative to the emergency with the exception of the period when DAL8801 reports they are unable to exit the runway to the time they switch to ground which is unedited and in real time.  Also, a few of the ground transmissions are missed because the feed is shared by the 2 KJFK ground frequencies.
