"The National Transportation Safety Board blamed the accident July 22, 2013, on the captain's attempt to recover from a bad landing approach by taking control of the Boeing 737-700 from the co-pilot at just 27 feet off the ground..."

"Southwest's plane landed hard enough that the nose-gear punched up into the plane's electronics bay and it skidded 2,175 feet to a halt, according to investigators."

"Eight people suffered minor injuries on the flight..."

FWIW, no amount of representation was going to save that captain's job.
