Do you guys ever fall down into the rabbit hole of watching Youtubes?

This guy is super calm in landing this King Air with his family on board after the pilot dies. If you're unfamiliar, a King Air is not a tiny plane. It's a twin engine turbo prop.

And the FAA ATC controllers were stellar. Kudos to them for having a King Air pilot on hand almost immediately to guide this guy in.

Well the "passenger" was an US Air Force pilot and he helped the co piliot who was actually flying the plane land it.
