One of the more interesting and exciting PilotEdge flights I have had to date. It has a bit of everything: communications problems, flight plan changes during clearance, high work load on the controller which then translates to the pilots, an unplanned emergency which significantly adds to everyone's workload, a request from the controller for an on the fly modified arrival to full Sunset3 to allow handling of the emergency flight, cancellation of Sunset3 STAR, loss of plane control to the point of controller cancelling approach clearance, vectors to intercept Visual 25L approach, request for speed maintenance on ILS 25L approach due to flight rapidly approaching from the rear, request for expedited 25L vacation due to incoming, and a bunch of captains whose voices are well known to me.

Don't forget, the words are coming from Australia, so they take longer to get here. Plus, they're upside down.

Oh, thanks Keith, I thought he was referring to the American pilots.

Yep, I was totally referring to Kim's Aussie drawl. ;) I haven't listened to the whole thing, either, but now I will!
