First priority is to order
takeoff of the MiG.

Good. And what else?
:28:18
Scramble the Polar Search squadrons.

Have them proceed to the predicted

Order them to begin searching
for any possible landing sites.
:28:30
The permanent ice pack,
General Vladimirov?

The MiG is approaching takeoff.
:28:58
Let us hope that we are
more successful this time.
