Summary
Then the man's voice seemed to fade, so the controller in Fort Pierce asked for his cellphone number to enable controllers at Palm Beach International Airport to communicate with him more clearly.Air traffic controller Robert Morgan, a 20-year veteran, took over at that point, talking the passenger down to a safe landing.“Kudos to the new pilot,” one controller told him after the plane smoothly wheeled down the tarmac.Morgan told WPBF that he felt like he was in the right place at the right time.“I knew the plane was flying like any other plane.
