So far on my trainning during the last 20 years if you have a main system failure stay where you are and then think, look at the alternatives and then proceed, but surely I will not go 7-8 hrs over the atlantic if I have an alternate airport 30 minutes away, come on, itīs an hidraulic system failure, itīs not an FMS or one generator off line.
Yeah, right! It's not like an FMS or a generator isn't required for an ETOPS flight or anything
At this stage and with the facts we all barely know, all I can say is: Kudos to the crew, you've done your job brilliantly (
AFAIK) under quite a significant deal of pressure and the outcome couldn't had gone any better. Kudos extend to the cabin crew for a successful evacuation
