Watch amazing footage of a passenger landing a plane in the dark

Your pilot’s passed out, you’ve suddenly got to land a plane, and all you’ve got is a reassuring voice over the radio guiding you in. How cool would you be? Probably not as cool as grandfather John Wildey.

Wildey, 77, landed the light aircraft at Humberside Airport last October after being talked through it by a flight instructor and guided in by a Sea King helicopter from RAF Leconfield in East Yorkshire.

Now he’s met up with the RAF crew that guided him down, and thanked them for their help.
