Nah, that's a good post

That landing is why soldiers train, players practice, and pilots work on emergency situations. When the stuff hits the fan you tend to fall back on training. I think the guy held it together great. As you said, his options were getting more limited by the second and that tends to drive up the heart rate lol. He followed the basic rule of "fly the plane" when the problem started cascading into catastrophe.
I think I understand why he went in wheels up not knowing the conditions on the ground and having no option to check them out first. Damaged airplane, but intact pilot is a good trade
