The first officer was the handling pilot for a manual landing on Runway 27R. The surface wind was
calm and the weather was good. Following a normal landing, using autobrake No 2 and full reverse
thrust, the autobrakes were disengaged by applying manual braking; at this point the brakes snatched
noticeably. After vacating the runway, the crew noticed a 'Landing Gear Monitor' status message and
then, while taxiing, noted that the right hydraulic quantity was decreasing. Then, as the aircraft arrived on stand the 'Hydraulic Quantity' warning message illuminated. Following engine shutdown, the commander was informed that the brakes were "steaming" and he called for the AFS. The AFS
arrived quickly and washed away the hydraulic fluid which was leaking from the landing gear. The
passengers were disembarked normally but expeditiously. Damage was exstensive.
