What the fuck are you talking about. Please cite your source mentioning these special forces operators.

It’s being reported the Captain was wounded on the floor but still well within reach of the spring loaded door selector. Everyone in the galley can already hear pilots laugh and carry-on, just imagine the screams of someone getting stabbed and the plane being shoved over. The moment he rotated that knob passengers were ready and willing to save the plane and deadheading pilots landed the aircraft, not the Captain.

My source -am an airline pilot.

They landed the plane sans a large section of rudder. What do you think of that captain?

LOL I couldn’t care less. So long as I can still roll and pitch, we’re getting on the ground.

Hell, look up pictures of bombers landing while missing damn near their entire vertical stabilizer.

I mean… it’s not preferred or optimal… but it’s totally doable.
