A Jetblue Airbus A320-200, registration N509JB performing flight B6-280 from Long Beach,CA to Las Vegas,NV (USA) with 93 people on board, was in the initial climb out of Long Beach's runway 30 when the crew reported a hydraulic pressure problem and decided to divert to Los Angeles,CA (USA). The aircraft landed safely on Los Angeles' runway 25L about 35 minutes after departure.

A ground observer at Long Beach reported seeing what appeared to be smoke from the left main wheel well, definitely not the #1 engine (V2527), just after takeoff. When the left main gear door closed the smoke disappeared.
