All i can say is well done to the controller for providing such a cool calm prof help to the person.

Its an old one but its well worth making PLL students listen to this.

This guy was bloody lucky to be alive by the sounds of it. Sounds like a spin in if ever i heard it. Stall warner going gyros toppled perfect level turn in cloud going wrong.

And the boy that was speaking to him knows how to fly,prefect advice i would mind betting he was CFI as well as a ATCO.

And before you all start i have flown with quite a few ATCO's who could teach me a thing or to about flying an aircraft and they are all old school or ex UAS.

Please discuss if current training is suffcient for ATCO to deal with that call in the Uk just now.
