In the recording, a person identified by the website as a pilot is heard saying to an air traffic controller that they had to abort their initial landing attempt because "the plane did just about anything" and had flight control problems.Flight tracking websites showed the plane made a loop around the airport before landing. It descended, climbed again and then finally came back down to land.
