Good thing it was a King Air!

sounds like that scenario from a movie i saw, online it isnt a boeing or airbus
but still you just have to be lucky to land a thing like that if you havent got any experience in it.

Well he had a single engine private license... the King Air 200 is a great aircraft and very forgiving... it couldn't have happened with a better plane. Good job on the passenger's part.

Yeah, sounds like he had a level head, pretty good.

 

[Gnomey]

Yeah, sounds like he did a good job, good on him.

I'd let him calm down first before offering him a drink....he'd probably spill it with all that adrenalin going through him !.

Bl**dy good job, well done that man.
