Happened to Scott and he did what you're supposed to. Fly the airplane. Calmly come back, land and latch.

Ok, so who knows how these things fly, if they fly when it comes unlatched
while in flight or in this case, appears to be unlatched prior to
takeoff....
Darn, I feel for the family, but we all need to learn from mistakes and it
appears that "5 alive" wasn't done in this case prior to takeoff :(.... Sad
and probably avoidable...
