An Austrian Airlines Boeing 767-300, registration OE-LAT performing flight OS-87 from Vienna (Austria) to New York JFK,NY (USA) with 212 people on board, was enroute at FL320 about 50nm eastnortheast of Dublin (Ireland) over the Irish Sea when the crew decided to return to Vienna due to the failure of one the hydraulic systems. The aircraft landed safely back in Vienna about 2 hours later.
The rotation was cancelled.
The aircraft is still on the ground about 9 hours after landing back.
The airline told Austrianwings that the aircraft was enroute less than 2 hours into the flight when the crew received indication of low hydraulic quantity for one of the systems, the crew was unable to resolve the issue using the checklists and advice from maintenance in Vienna, therefore decided to return to Vienna.
