To Comrade Stalin

"With your names in our hearts we, the daughters of the great socialistic motherland, flew over without landing, through clouds, fog, frost and night, from Moscow, the heart of our immense motherland, as far as banks of the Amur River. In the marsh, in the Taiga, among the rolling hills, we were not alone. With us are many millions of our nation, the Party and you, Comrade Stalin. Thank you for fatherly care."
"GRIZODUBOVA, OSIPENKO, RASKOVA."

"Comrades Stalin, Molotov, Kaganovich, Voroshilov, Ezhov, Mikoian, Kalinin, Zhdanov, Andreev"

"Your order has been fulfilled. A non-stop flight Moscow—Far East completed in the plane “Motherland” in 26 hours, 29 minutes. The landing was made on a marsh field by the river Amgun’ in an unpopulated area. The crew is healthy, the craft is in order." From our whole heart we thank you for your comrade Stalin’s care and help shown to us.

We are ready to fulfill any order of the party and government.
"GRIZODUBOVA, OSIPENKO, RASKOVA."

CREW OF THE AIRPLANE “MOTHERLAND”
"Comrades V. Grizodubova, P. Osipenko, M. Raskova"

We congratulate you warmly on the successful and wonderful ending of the non-stop flight Moscow-Far East. "Your heroic flight, which covered in its route 6,450 kilometers (as the eagle flies 5.947 kilometers) in 26 hours 29 minutes is an international women’s record for both straight line and plotted route flight." "Your courage, sangfroid and high mastery of aviation, achieved in the difficult circumstances of the flight and landing, have aroused the admiration of the whole Soviet people."

We are proud of you and we press your hands with all our soul.
