FYI: Dec 12 MythBusters: Airplane Hour
"Jim Macklin" writes:
What they showed with landing the NASA simulator is that any person with some level experience with a cockpit display can control an airliner. Most FAA controllers would not have the experience to describe the cockpit and give useful instruction in how to manually fly with the autopilot or where the switches are located, or how to use the radio to even start the "rescue." FAA controllers can find pilots and put them on the radio, if required.
