That was great teamwork indeed! Awesome job!

I just want to say that this controller's performance was nothing short of miraculous! He was absolutely switched on immediately, and was able to determine exactly how much information the student pilot was able to process. He also did a great job of relaying comms since the instructor's radio didn't seem to have enough range. I truly hope his efforts are officially recognized.

To the young lady that was flying, if you just so happen to read this, please know that you didn't do anything wrong. Stress and emotions are fickle things. We as humans can't just turn emotions off, and the physiological response from our bodies is no joke. You did great by continuing to communicate with the tower. You got yourself and the plane back down safely. In my book that took a TON of courage and resilience, even while you were fighting through your situation. Well done. I mean that sincerely. I hope you are able to work all that out, which may take some time... and that's ok. I also hope you're able to continue your aviation journey in the future if you desire to. This situation wasn't fun, but use it as proof that you can still operate under pressure. With some guidance and practice, you can still achieve your dreams!

"I feel like I need to get out right now." - that line must have sent chills to everyone on frequency listening.

I feel so sorry for the student… when panic sets in it can really feel like the worlds ending, props to the ATC for assisting them.

This is why ATC aren't paid enough. The level of patience and professionalism they show under extreme pressure is just incredible.

That sounded like a full blown panic attack. I’m glad she was able to land the plane. Great job everyone and thanks for the video!

Gentleman in the tower is phenomenal. He was able to be nice, calm her down and most importantly do his job keeping everyone safe. A+

As an ATC myself, tower was awesome, clear, concise, calm, 100% on relaying the instructors guidance, this team saved a life today!!!!

I love I love I love the way this ATC guy spoke to her.
Sometimes when someone is panicking, it can be easy to get agitated in response. He remained cool, calm and his clear communication was very helpful to this woman.
Good on you Sir. Fabulous work.
Good on you, dear pilot. You have now landed your most difficult ever landing. Only easier from here. ❤

ATC... just wow... what an incredible person. The patience, the understanding. 10/10 person.

Controller, you saved that girls life.

"I'll bring you some donuts later" literally most Canadian ending possible! See you at Tim's! 🇨🇦😂🍩☕

Can we recommend that controller for a Golden Headset Award? (I know there is no such thing, but there should be such an 'Oscar' for great ATC work). Very well done - calm, didn't hassle the pilot, worked with the instructor and reinforced the pilots good flying during what sounds like a horrible panic attack. Hope she was ok and can work through this with her instructor.

You have to be REALLY brave to ask for help in moments like these! Kudos to everyone involved.

To the ATCO: Amazing job!!! To the student pilot: a go around is nothing to be ashamed of, or scared of. You never have to apologize for it, it is a normal procedure. If you feel something is off during the approach or the landing, just go around! It happens to the best of the best, it happens after 10 000 hours. Congrats of pulling everything together at the end! Wish you a nice, long aviation career!

[nfcboys]

I can’t imagine how terrified this young pilot was. Amazing job to all involved!

[positiveoutlook]

Student did a lot of right things here. First and foremost, she voiced her situation openly. From the recording she seems to be flying the plane well, she had four critical turns to make in the pattern all while under stress and seems to have executed those without comment from the ground. Certainly those are the most dangerous traps and where I was biting my nails. But, she came through. Well done

[DrRauen]

That teamwork made me drop a tear here. The ATC was so kind. Nice!

[tmcarter]

Wow... I just started tearing up just listening to the defeat in pilots voice; the FTA was awesome and did a fantastic job coaching her through what was probably the most intense moment of her life... FYA, you did great, no one is perfect its all just a matter of how you handle the situation; as long as you kept a level head and listened to your training, playing over and over again take your experience and learn... Kudos to instructor as well. Clear, concise directives and keeping everyone calm.. All three of you deserve a donut!

The world needs more people like that ATC.
