Well done, glad it worked out Primary importance to not panic, hard to do if/when things really go bad.
Classic example is the Speedbird 9 story, 747 flameout after flying through volcanic ash, the crew just kept running thru proper procedure, landed safely

(Hopefully, after repairing faulty circuits in that 421, they installed an independent gyro of some kind, air-driven, or stand-alone battery powered AI).
