An Air Traffic Controller has been recoreded yelling at pilots who would not obey his instructions at Danbury Municipal Airport (DXR) in Connecticut.

The clip doesn’t fully pick up the communications from the pilots, since the radio receiver can’t pick up transmissions from too far away. However it is the air traffic controller’s that is the focus.

On this video the start has the intense highlights - then you can listen to the whole incident with things heating up at the 2min 15sec mark and it gets extreme around 3min 40sec.
