American Airlines 767 Emergency Landing at Manchester

A user at forum.keypublishing.co.uk is reporting, that on 02/23/08 an American Airlines Boeing 767-323/ER (N386AA) did an Ermergency Landing at Manchester (UK).
The plane had lost all the fluid from the centre hydraulic system, therefore it landed without flaps and spoilers. Upon landing the bay doors were hanging open and she suffered a rather hard landing, resulting in two blown tyre’s. According to the source, she’d also had her brakes cease up due to the hard braking from the landing.

    This incident was pilot’s error: the flight was late because of hydr. ground test didn’t pass but pilot decided to take off anyhow.
