Pilot nearly crashes in IMC, Controller helps
Hello All!
I've been hunting high and low for an audio file. Came across it a few years ago. It's an actual audio file of a controller or FSS giving the pilot instructions to recover from a stall? spin? The pilot flew into IMC became disoriented, asked for assistance and panicked. All the while the controller helped him to recover the AC. The pilot was close enough to the ground that he saw the top of a radio tower on the way down. Quite chilling to listen to, but I can't find the file anymore. Any one know and could post the link or file? Thanks!! Pim |

This was posted a few days ago (last week?) in one of the newsgroups i
read. Either rec.avaition.student or rec.aviation.pilot or rec.aviation.uk I listened to it. Where an american pilot basically thinks he's about to die but the controller tells him to push his control column forward saving his life. There was then an interview with the airtraffic control service and pilot about the event. The audio file highlighted the work of the american air traffic control service, so it might be on their website. I'm in the uk and don't know much about who is responsible for that. The FAA? I'll have a look around. Someone must have seen the post. Me On 24 Sep 2005 12:53:59 -0700, "pimenthal" wrote: Hello All! I've been hunting high and low for an audio file.

For future reference, and the benefit of all, I have added this amazing audio file to our aviation video website. See/hear it (and many more) at: http://alexisparkinn.com/aviation_videos.htm Nothing illustrates stark terror and panic better than that tape, IMHO. It's absolutely chilling. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

You are stealing from other people. I got in some hot water for having "Pimping for Dummies" on my website. The "for Dummies" series people got upset and threatened my ISP. My ISP told me to remove it and I did... end of story. It had stayed up for probably three years before they became aware of it... and I have no idea how they did. In any case, leave it up until somebody insists you take it down. I doubt rather seriously there will ever be any repercussion. And it is an absolutely amazing tape. I've never heard such terror in someone's voice before. Do you think he quit flying after that or went for instrument training? -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN VE |
