Your radio crackles with a call for help. My pilot is dead. It has taken 15 mins. to get someone on the radio.This is what I know. I'm in a Cessna 172. I have a full tank of fuel. My altitude is 2500 ft. AGL. My airspeed is 85 knots. I am circling the airport. You are on the ground and cannot take off but you can establish visual with me. I have had 6 hours of instruction and understand straight and level flight, banked turns, stalls, and stall recovery. My call sign is ONE ALPHA JULIET. I need for you to talk me through the landing process and get me on the ground. Since this is a forum and not a real radio we will assume when you have given an instruction I have executed that command sucessfully.
