Oman Hawk Crash. Crew ok

Heard a rumour that an Omani 2 seat Hawk crashed on landing at Masirah. One brake had full pressure indicated which they couldn't disipate. After staying straight for a few seconds the jet came off the side of the runway and the gear collapsed. Crew made a rapid egress; shaken not stirred.

Glad they were ok.

I remember that the Hawk pre-landing check calls for hyds of 3 twos, 2 zeros. What advice is there for getting rid of the residual pressure if you don't have 2 zeros?
