I honestly can't believe the feds weren't standing by to say hi when he finally stopped.

I would have booted him out the airspace he’s deadly .

This guy made my Head Hurt....

What goes around always comes back around , it might be you that UA-camrs are putting in a compilation video.

This is the problem with gps in airplanes. No more planning or following charts. Just IFR direct. The should have told him to land @ fund du lac and RTFM.

thank God the FAA has the best controllers working at the Air Venture.

If I had a plane and the tail number ended in 53A, I'd get that changed ASAP.

It's getting too big, time to shut it down.

I saw thIs guy at my local Starbucks. He had about 43 people behind him as he asked the barista about where coffee comes from and if they could make him some poached eggs.

Now I have the confidence to become a pilot 😎

DUDE. How are you going to show your butt like this on freq over the largest gathering of pilots and aircraft in the world. That controller should have told him "No. Go back and get your NOTAM as required by FAA regulations."

Taking initiative plays a big role in planning. I hope this pilot listens to this and realizes his poor planning caused a ton of frustration

When you show for test but absolutely did not care to study😂

This guy gave enough red flags to sail the seven seas... 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Must have been a slow time for OshKosh ATC

what a douché with a capital D! don't have the NOTAM, go back to where you're from and get the NOTAM. if he was IFR and had an iPad, he could pull it up. he may have been apologetic, but was a total DOUCHÉ! this is kinda like picking teams for basketball in middle school, and one of the guys doesn't even know how to play basketball.

Wow. How do you have a reserved parking spot at Oshkosh, and you planned to fly the notice arrival, but then when the tower asks you about "Ripon", you don't even know what "Ripon" is? If you're not even familiar with the existence of the "Ripon" waypoint, that indicates that you have not even looked at the arrival notice let alone studied it exhaustively for the week or two before your planned flight. The guy in the tower should've told him to divert to the nearest airport, find an Internet connection, and download the PDF for the arrival on his phone, read through it once at minimum, and then attempt to make the flight. What a jackass.

More money than brains

It's also a good way to get killed with potentially high traffic.

Seriously, equal blame goes on the controller for endangering everybody else. Only thing he did right was tell the guy to go back home and get the notam. Should have been end of sentence. Allowing him to proceed inbound was a mistake.

Kudos to the patience and professionalism of the ATCs here

Guy probably flys A380’s for a day job

It will be a wonder if pilot 53A will ever be able to live this one down. Talk about pilot shaming. Being the punch line of a utube with 53k views. Ouuuchhh

Amazing how patient the controllers were. Not sure I could have kept my cool…

And this is a really well edited and funny video by the way! You should make more of them, I'm going to subscribe in anticipation!

This guy, everybody makes mistakes but this guy is wasting ATC time and blocking the frequency for other pilots who know what they're doing. The pilot is obviously way out of his depth. I hope he didn't get away with this or if he did, he learnt from his mistakes, and complete lack of planning.

Flying into Oshkosh even for highly experienced show vets can be extremely intense. I think we can all just cut the guy some slack here. The controllers did a phenomenal job assisting when he was obviously stressed out and scared. Hats off to them for the job they do.

That ending 🤣🤣🤣

That was painful

Oh man!

This guy is a hazard

You cannot have to many of those on a day like that or it will get messy real fast

IDIOTS OF THE AIR!!!!…IOA!!!!

This conversation sounded like me looking for my keys, after my wife is summoned. Then looking for a shirt, then can't find.. Her responses make these controllers seem mild in comparison. Fortunately, I plan my flights much more efficiently and without asking for her input (I get it anyway).

Shoulda turned him around and sent him home.

Even when going somewhere by car I get the „approach plate“ and try to memorize what turns to make 😅 on the other hand I’m not a pilot yet and driving a car is stupidly easy compared to operating an aircraft and it’s system so… my respect he at least made it.

Arc had a lot of patience good for them

Oof

Sounds like the arrival was empty... otherwise there is no way they would hand hold you like this.

It's a push to talk not push to think.

Hooooly smokes that last 15 seconds did me in. 😂😂😂

I would not wan this guy on a bicycle

Surprised he can even get his prop turning...

Oshkosh is where controllers who really love their job try and go. My dream personally and I admire these guys for their understanding. They want everyone to have a positive experience

Pilot certainly did pass the “Politeness Checkride”.

this is the guy that you go golfing with and doesn't have any tee's or golf balls.

These air traffic controllers are freaking saints. Just pure class and professionalism. Yes, this guy was an idiot for not preparing, but they treated him with respect all the same to not make the situation worse.

I thought the first 2 mins was the end of the ordeal, than I saw the time stamps 😭 oh god

I don't understand why they didn't suggest that he go to a peripheral airport, land, and get the instructions?? Ridiculous

This guy is an accident waiting to happen, he needs to be reevaluated for his ability to manage flying and airplane!
