An example of great teamwork between an able student pilot and a great tower team at Jandakot producing an excellent outcome, the student later commented that he "hoped he would go on to qualify for his pilots licence"

He said he hadn't done anything like this before, yet is RT was very 'polished', the on board video was a coincidence?
