Which situation would the ATC have had his behind on the line for had
something happened? helping guide him into OSH knowing he wasn't
prepared, or refusing to do that and insisting that he turn around and
go back?


ATC did us all a favor getting this guy out of the airspace and onto the
ground as quickly as possible. I would give the controller a big atta
boy for recognizing the bad situation and resolving it quickly. That is
what makes the controllers at OSH so special. We can disapprove of the
pilot's incompetence, but the controller did an outstanding job.
