Long story short: "A 65-year-old private pilot who was left almost entirely blind when he suffered a a stroke while flying solo at more than 15,000 feet was guided to a safe landing after a Royal Air Force training plane was scrambled and its pilot talked the stricken flier down."

You could look it up.
