History records that Blair is promoted to general, he serves a tour as a goodwill ambassador cleaning up relations with the Border Worlds and then as a flight instructor.
There are two "winning" endings to the game: Blair as a flight instructor and Blair as a Tolwyn-esque admiral.
The ending will depend on particularly one of your actions...go figure it out . And obviously the other endings are: Blair being trialled for treason and being executed, him dying the cockpit (shock horror, surely not, Confed's greatest hero being outflown and outgunned!) etc
