Scary Icing ATC tape

That's easy to say if you've never been in a similar situation.
It's also easy to say because it's true.
Regardless of what you might see in the movies, real astronauts,
military pilots, test pilots, and experienced commercial pilots--as
well as controllers--remain virtually emotionless even in very dire
circumstances. That's because they know they can't afford to panic.
There will be time for sweating and throwing up later, if necessary,
but the middle of an emergency is not the time.
People who panic and wail and scream and cry in an emergency make for
good drama, but they don't usually survive to talk about it.
