He's got three cans.

So my second aircraft, Razor 04, is still out there.
So I'm hoping he can go do the rescue.
I can't do it.
I'm going to need to be rescued.
So instead I turn now back to battle, and the idea is to identify a friendly position and land near it.
So I set up a rate of descent, and I'm sorry for being technical here, but about 300 foot a minute, about 70 knots.
