## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT, 2001 ISRAEL AIRCRAFT INDUSTRIES MODEL GALAXY (G-200), DEPARTED FROM BOCA RATON AIRPORT (BCT) AND DIVERTED TO PALM BEACH INTERNATIONAL (PBI) AFTER REPORTING A RIGHT HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FAILURE.

PILOT STATED THAT DURING CRUISE ALTITUDE A THUMP AND INSTANTANEOUSLY CAUTION MESSAGE ALERT WAS RECEIVED, INDICATING A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FAILURE ON THE RIGHT SYSTEM. HYDRAULIC QUANTITY AND SYSTEM PRESSURE WENT TO ZERO.

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.
