"Do you know how to operate the aeroplane?" the operator can be heard asking in an audio recording of the call.In a remarkably calm exchange, air traffic controllers inquired repeatedly about the instructor, only to be told he was not responding "Your job right now is just to keep focusing on that aircraft," said the controller, before telling Sylvester he was"doing an amazing job."That confidence was backed up by a perfect landing in front of dozens of onlookers who had gathered at the airfield, according to 9 News.
