Narrative:

Just after takeoff we had a complete fluid loss of the #1 hydraulic system. The aircraft was an medium large transport. An emergency was declared with new york departure control, and all emergency checklists were accomplished. Alternate flap and landing gear extensions were completed with no problems. The only system lost were thrust reversers and nosewheel steering. Company operations was advised and the 'a' flight attendant was briefed. I elected to land at ewr airport since it was as close as lga, and had longer runways. The aircraft was landed without incident and stopped on runway 22R centerline. Maintenance installed pins in the landing gear and towed the aircraft to the terminal. There were no injuries to the passenger or crew. The passenger deplaned through a jetway at the terminal. New york ATC, ewr tower and emergency crews all did an excellent job.
