Actually, not too bad, at first they were put into prison because the authority did not believe their story "What! you guys saw a He-111 parked in the airport, and simply aboard it and flew away? Your German master should give you a more creditable cover story!", however they were released later after their story was confirmed by captured German documents. The pilot, I forget his name, was award Hero of the Soviet Union some years later
