Everyone can get in trouble and beyond his/her capabilities. She, the pilot, was obviously trained early enough in what to do when in trouble: focus on flying the airplane! And she did not hesitate to tell ATC that she feels in trouble. The luck on ATC side was that the controller was a pilot of the same airctaft type and gave her the most important hints with a few words. Great job both!
Even experienced pilots can have things happen that they have not experienced before, she did absolutely fine, as did the controller. Remember she is a young student with limited experience and did exactly the right thing, she knew her limits, and flew within them.
I remember on a solo training nav flight hitting turbulence, like this pilot, hit my head on the cockpit roof, headset & glasses went flew off my head. I was possibly too close to a range of hills.
Or and hear me out here… theyre STUDENTS so theyre LEARNING their limits and making calls based on that. Everyone learns differently and has different scenarios thrown at them at different times of their flying career. Instead of bashing schools and students suggest ways they can handle it better next time
@@Pachyzookeeper Kind of agree with you both, here. Students can and will get in trouble they don't know how to handle yet (because, yeah, they're students). I have also heard a ton about sub-par instruction being an open secret in the industry, as the demand for pilots continues to exceed the supply.
@@adrianhenle right it can be both, problem is most comments regarding this are from pilots who are quick to point fingers without knowing the students/instructors/schools background based on their own experiences. Someone could have a great instructor and some may not and have to learn the hard way. That being said ive seen so many student pilots in videos/fb groups ask honest questions about them being nervous of xyz or a question, and instantly people dogpile on top of them expecting them to know everything at once and if not telling them “if your scared of wind then your not meant to be a pilot” I dont mean it as hand holding but thats where people need to be giving advice to help them proceed and not say “then your school sucks or you cant comprehend xyz”

That's an absolutely amazing controller!

What a fantastic controller. Top lad!
That Center controller deserves controller of the year!!!! BRAVO!!!!
Controller went the extra mile here. We'll done.

Why promoting 4k for a channel containing "audio" in the name ?
Haha, clicks.
@@operationcenterbravo its probably costing more potential viewers thant it gives... weird strategy
Too many videos of ATC holding the hands of student pilots. The instructors and schools are failing the students. Diploma mills?

Back in my day, students went through training without a single mistake if they had enough money.
@@something7239BS. TOTAL BS. A student pilot will NEVER EVER be “error” or “mistake free.” Never.
