Default A Pilot Gives Thanks

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


With regarding to accidents, since everyone is always concerned
with the accident and the more foreboding/morbid things relating to it,
not many people (including some in this newsgroup) look at the bright
side of things, let alone express their thanks and gratitude for the
assistance ATC provides. The following does exactly that, as well as
has a pilot thanking ATC for getting him down safely in an emergency.
It's a good, but short read; I'll follow up with the transcript shortly
(audio is available, but edited; the actual incident occurred too far
back to be in the LiveATC archives).

Enjoy.
