He survived, so I can't help but kind of laugh when I hear the audio. It is completely embarrassing, and he should really go up with somebody else for awhile until he can try to improve reactions under stress. I don't want to be too harsh... but... come on.
And get some IFR training, sheesh.
Have to love those ATC guys, true professionals.
Wow that was cringeworthy. I can't help but have some concern over this. He lost his cool in a HUGE way and went on later to go for another flight. The FSS controller sure didn't seem to believe his story either.
