JIA5381 Emergency
« on: November 25, 2020, 01:19:08 PM »

JIA 5381 enroute from MHT to CLT encountered a hydraulic problem while at cruising altitude.  They declared an emergency and were diverted to Dulles where they landed safely without incident.

Some additional info: the aircraft, a CRJ900 was at FL300 almost directly over Washington DC when the hydraulic problem occurred.  The plane landed safely at Dulles on runway 19C.  Fire/Rescue was waiting for them just in case.  The crew was able to taxi off the runway on their own where they stopped due some concerns about possible leaking hydraulic fluid.
