** ''Blind Flight'' should not be confused with ''Flying Blind'' by Frank E. Peretti, which also involves a blinded kid having to pilot a plane (in this case, blinded due to smacking his head due to a near miss with a bigger plane, which knocks out the adult pilot.)

* ''Series/DempseyAndMakepeace'': In the climax "Given to Acts of Violence" Dempsey's attempt to stop the robber parachuting out of the plane ends with them both falling out, leaving Makepeace (who doesn't know how to fly) trapped alone on the plane at 20,000 feet. Dempsey is forced to walk her through the landing by radio. After several close calls she manages it, but nearly collapses from exhaustion afterwards.

* ''Series/IntoTheNight''. Sylvie is a pilot. A ''helicopter'' pilot. She picks things up quickly with Mathieu to guide her, but it gets a little dicey when his wound gets infected and takes him out. Especially as it's not just a matter of landing the plane, but staying ahead of the SolarFlareDisaster that's killing anyone exposed to sunlight.

Especially as Sylvie then has to land the plane using a Youtube instructional video. Incidentally it's not just a matter of landing the plane, but staying ahead of the SolarFlareDisaster that's killing anyone exposed to sunlight.

* ''VideoGame/AceCombat5TheUnsungWar'': In the mission "Handful of Hope", Blaze and Nagase come across a damaged, but still airborne C-5 Galaxy (a large military cargo plane) while out on a routine patrol. It soon turns out that it is carrying [[spoiler:the Osean president Vincent Harling]] on a top-secret diplomatic mission, when a traitor on board attempts to assassinate him. The attempt fails, but both pilots are killed. [[spoiler:Harling's presidential aide]] Tommy then takes over the controls to emergency-land the plane, being on only passenger with some rudimentary flight training. He manages to land the C-5 in a nearby field with a lot of encouragement from his boss and, more pertinently, some intense guidance from Nagase.
