22 years ago today UAL 232 @ SUX

22 years ago today Al Haynes masterfully got UAL 232 on the ground in Sioux City Iowa after wrestling the gorilla for over and hour following the explosion of #2 engine in his DC-10 and the total loss of all hydraulics. Not everyone made it out of the accident, but still a great job of flying and 'making it up as we go along'
