MD80: powered by the rh hyd sys and in case of emer pwr in use free fall of the gear and lock mechanism(main wheel well doors remain down in this case).jammed stabilizer.flaps should still work but no indic in cockpit about position of slats/flaps
if acft is in cruise config when total loss of AC occur,in order not to go out flt envelope,use FL15 max as you cannot trim anymore.
