For E-145 pilots...

[91100 100 set]

I wasn't getting on you and I understand your situation. It's just a hydrulic failure of this nature that causes the loss of 50% braking, spoiler, thrust reverser deployment and steering loss, should prompt an emergency call. Just my opinion.

And to clarify, we did not get the complete failure (with the loss of the braking, etc) UNTIL we actually touched down and put a load on the system.

Yes Lear, this might get rolling, but it's not what the thread is supposed to be about. And no, I haven't seen DCA since last summer, nor am I scheduled to this month. I will see alot of IAD, but only for an hour at a time.

Yep, same as my incident. The system sort of hides the fact that all this stuff is going to fail when you need it. The only clue to all this is the hydraulic level indicator on the MFD. We saw this and with the added opinion of MX we knew the assoociated systems would fail on touch down. We ran the QRH for System 1 Hydraulic Failure. Certainly got my atention on a Sunday morning.
