When an airplane's instruments are not working, or when someone who does not know how to fly is at the controls, people on the ground can help land it, by "talking the pilot down," that is, giving instructions over the radio. Also said of getting someone through a "bad trip" or an intense emotional experience, or of saving someone from committing suicide by jumping from a height.
