LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A United Airlines flight made an emergency landing in Los Angeles Friday afternoon following reports of a "complete hydraulic failure."

The Airbus A320 took off from San Francisco International Airport with 110 people on board, headed to Mexico City, and was diverted to L.A. "due to an issue with the aircraft's hydraulic system," United said in a statement.

The plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport just before 4:30 p.m.

"The flight landed safely and passengers were deplaned normally at the gate," the airline said, adding that passengers will be taken to Mexico City on a new aircraft that was scheduled to depart Friday later.

"This aircraft type has three hydraulic systems for redundancy purposes. Preliminary information shows there was only an issue with one system on this aircraft."

“Third time is enemy fire.”

Worse even - it’s DEI in full bore.

Atlas is not shrugging yet, but he certainly is quivering a little.

At the point you have to suspect these aren’t accidents.

Ok. This is more than just a coincidence. We’re obviously under attack.

This sort of thing happens all the time.

It’s just making news at the moment.

I don’t see how anyone dares to fly at this point.

How old is the plane? The other two planes were 22 years old. So it seems like a lot of these issues are because of the age of the aircraft. You can’t blame the manufacturer for that.
