the flight controls on the Emb have mechanical backups (cables and pulleys like a cessna).... they'll still work... its just a little "harder" to fly.
But I dont think anyone would just lose all their hydraulics and come on in and land like nothing happen.
This incident is some kind of computer error and we wont know what happened until the investigation is done. No more speculating.
