John thanks

On the basis of your fine words I wonder if you could put a perspective on the AWACs Multiple bird ingestion accident in Elmendorf for me.

They completely disabled two engines on one side just after lift off. On the CVR one of the people in the cockpit says rudder overboost more than once and the pilot in command says thank you .

I believe that this aircraft sideslipped and rolled down into the dead engines somewhat as it intersected a rising hill.

What is the purpose of the rudder overboost that was being called for?
