Scary Icing ATC tape
Philip S. writes:
The tone of voice of both the pilot and the controller is absolutely
immaterial. It in no way gives us a clue as to their respective actions
while they were talking.
It says a lot about their state of mind, however.
As someone else pointed out, it's quite possible
that the pilot's hands and eyes were busily doing exactly what they'd been
trained to do, even while her voice betrayed fear.
I'm not sure I heard much in the way of fear in her voice. It sounded
more like a hysterical irritation, like "how dare the aircraft refuse
to obey me!"
