As soon as you hear the guy start screaming you can feel the tingles in your spine. I'm almost about to solo in a C172 and thats really eye opening.

The pilot involved in this incident has been identified:


Seriously, listen to the third clip where he calls in to thank the briefer and get another briefing, and tell me you don't expect him to say "You complete me..." at the end of the call.

As stated in the clip the pilot was not IFR rated which sounds like he was pretty new.

Not really relevant. There are many high time non-IFR rated pilots out there.

While I can understand the fear associated with this guy's situation, am I the only one who wants to tell this guy to stop yelling Mayday???  grin

Same here. I don't want to sound mean but that exact attitude, faced with an emergency is unbecoming of a pilot, in my opinion.

The typical response from the Chuck Yaeger wanna-bes and hanger flyers you find on aviation forums. "Unbecoming of a pilot" - like anyone cares about that when they have totally lost it and just KNOW, like this guy did, that it was over. Most pilots with some experience would not be critical. It takes a lot less than what this guy experienced to scare the hell out of most people, pilot or non-pilot.
