Straighten Up. Fly Right.

Nobody knows what would have gone through your minds in those moments between heaven and earth.
 
Such experiences are the hallows of the privileged few who have encountered emergencies and system failures in the Nuri and brought the old bird back to ground without taking precious lives in the wake of the only means of reacting they had.
 
It is enough that you breathe yet. It is enough that you are all alive as a crew.
 
Whatever the political and service shenanigans may be that you must face, they are secondary to the fact that you're still here and have not lost any of your friends to your handling of a situation gone wrong, and likely unforeseen in the Nuri's aviation history.
 
Congratulations to the aircraft commander and the crew. Get up, get well. Get past this.
 
You're more relevant to the aviation world now than many who would stand as judge over you.
