The hydraulic system used on the main engines uses pressurized fuel fed from the fuel turbo-pump and returned to the low pressure manifold. Thus it is impossible to run out of hydraulic fluid if the engine is running. The grids only operate for a few minutes and mostly when the main engines are off and thus require a separate system. The lightest system is a pressurized tank of hydraulic fluid which in this case was a tad too small. Close but no cigar.
As a *nix user and a target of this campain isn't it a little strange to block accesses from people using Mozilla. The old site (http://198.63.57.204) happily renders while the new MS site (http://130.94.214.143) draws a blank.
