During the 70th Anniversary of VE flyover of the capitol by dozens of warbirds, many people noticed a TBM Avenger suddenly leave the formation. It had suffered a hydraulic leak. Here’s some dramatic in cockpit video. 42 seconds from the leak to the landing. That’s some fine aviating.

The foresight to shut down Reagan for an hour and leave it for in-flight emergencies on 70 year old planes was rewarded that day.

Had everything gone according to Plan A there would still be complaints going around for the shut-down. I believe that the PIC did gold medal actions in getting from in-flight emergency to ground in short order…kudos!
