They are a bit tired...but their morale is absolutely brilliant. I think probably today for the first time they actually realize they might achieve this great feat.
If they want to put down in some part of the desert surrounded by lions, jackals and other dangerous animals, then we will do it.
What we would dearly like to do is to get them down in Egypt near the pyramids.
We hope that we can come talk to them and perhaps come to a strategy we can all agree on for flights next year.
But of course you can't go off to the jet stream without the hatch being fixed. We have time to look at the problem.
Their spirits go up and down with the wind speeds, and right now the wind is up.
I can't relax until we give them a safe landing, wherever it is. To me that's more important than crossing the finish line.
I need these guys back in good health. They're friends of mine.
Hopefully, when he wakes up the headache will be gone and he will be back to his normal self and go back to thinking about the hatch again.
