Post complete hydraulic failure

dear all

i was watching flightline, a programme on discovery and they were talking about a pilots worst nightmare being complete hydralic failure.

They reffered to some accident that occured in the late eightes in USA but i was more interested in the technology that NASA are looking into whereby pilots can land the a/c using engine thrust alone.

Does anyone have any more information about this and has anyone ever experienced hydraulic failure and what are the procedures in those circumstances.

Thanks.
