From AvWeb, USA, a VFR pilot gets himself into 'big trouble', and ATC get him out of it....
An Excellent result, despite the pilot actually getting himself this far 'into trouble', in the first place....Interesting....Note the time frame....
Audio ON....
Podcast: Controllers to the Rescue
He was just plain 'lucky' that he was within gliding range of a 'straight ahead' runway, and the ATC team on the ground having the ability and the knowledge to direct him accordingly.
Cheers
p.s. Would this pilot now be a 'criminal' in AUS..??
(
Yeah - I know....better to be a 'live crim' than the alternative....)
