Two minutes after takeoff, they're climbing through 7,200 feet doing decelerating toward 160 knots in a tight right turn according to FlightAware. -- Wow, that's a pants sh*tting moment for sure.
Starting that turn pronto to re-orient their lift vector away from the moon could have been what saved their bacon and gave them the time needed to run the QRH and handle the emergency.
I hope the details of this event are eventually put out to the pilot group so everyone can learn from it.
Good job by the crew!

Maybe Republic doesn't do this but my company takes high profile incidents and "unpacks them." Using reports from the crew and FOQA data, the safety department builds a narrative of the event and puts it out to the pilot group 2-3 months later. Done all in the name of enhancing crew awareness and readiness to deal with emergencies.
The FAA mandated EET Training administered in the sim is extremely basic in nature. Making the claim EET Training "checks the box" and therefore there is no need for an internal company discussion about this event is preposterous.

I think that is the worst MEL we have.... worse than an ECU out.
