Cpt. Wrona is a glider pilot, he perfectly kept the glide slope and AoA.
FO Jerzy Szwarc.

Cpt. still in the cockpit.
No one injured, absolutely no panic.

1h after t/o from Newark crew reported total failure of main hydraulic system.
They tried to "revive" it all the way down, then tried emergency electric
gear lowering.

7 tons fuel at Warsaw arrival, burned 4 tons, landed with 3.

Youngest 767 of the fleet, 13 years old.
