## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

(-23) ON JUNE 21, 2001, AT 1345 EST, DELTA AIRLINES FLIGHT 1190, AN MD-80, LANDED ON RUNWAY 28L AFTER DECLARING AN EMERGENCY DUE TO A PRESSURIZATION PROBLEM. THE ARFF RESPONDED, AND THE AIRCRAFT TAXIED TO THE RAMP WITHOUT INCIDENT.  NO ASSISTANCE WAS REQUIRED AND THE AIRCRAFT TAXIED TO THE RAMP WITHOUT INCIDENT.  AFTER RECEIVING STATEMENTS FROM THE CREW OF THE FLIGHT, IT WAS FOUND THAT BOTH AUTO-PRESSURIZATION CONTROLLERS HAD FAILED, BUT THE CABIN WAS MAINTAINING NORMAL PARAMETERS AND THE CREW SWITCHED TO MANUAL MODE AS PER THE POM.  IT WAS ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS NOT AN EMERGENCY DECLARED, AND NO ARFF WERE REQUESTED.  SUBMISSION OF THIS REPORT CLOSES THIS INCIDENT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
