UAL 350 Hydraulic Problem
« on: July 19, 2015, 11:30:03 AM »

On Jul 18 UAL350 experienced a hydraulic system problem that forced their return to EWR.  The flight held over the Atlantic east of the New Jersey coastline to burn off fuel for about an hour before returning to EWR.  The flight landed safely.

The audio is attached and picks up right after takeoff from EWR.  At one point UAL350 is told to contact New York on 132.8 on their way back to EWR but this frequency isn't covered by Liveatc so, unfortunately, that portion of communications is not included.
