​Interview with First Officer Jim Tucker
I remember thinking that I had lived through the flight, but I might not make it beyond that. All of us were facing some life-threatening injuries.
David [Captain] nearly had an ear torn off, had multiple lacerations, fractures and concussions, and the spear just missed one of his arteries.
Andy [Flight Engineer] had lost lots of blood — he was five minutes from bleeding to death — and got a secondary infection afterwards.
I got the worst of it as far as head trauma, with a depressed skull fracture and associated subdural hematoma — they had to go in and relieve the building pressure and remove the clot.
About a week later, I developed a brain abscess, and they weren't sure I was going to make it. They removed the offending bone flap — a craniotomy — irrigated what they could, closed me up (minus the bone flap), and prayed for the best.
For six weeks, I had six hours of IV therapy each day, until it wore out the veins in my arms.
Then they put a catheter in my chest — using a local anesthetic because I was a neurological patient — and that was very uncomfortable, but at least I was through with needles.
Then I began two and a half years of intensive physical therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, occupational therapy — you name it, I had it.
It was a race against time, because the more progress you make in a short time, the greater your chances are for a full recovery.

​As of August 2024, Calloway is imprisoned at United States Penitentiary, Coleman 1, Florida. During the flight, Captain Sanders had contemplated killing Calloway, which would have been a justified killing. Though Sanders didn't know it, Calloway intended on crashing the plane into the Memphis FedEx Hub, killing many more people.
