I sent my husband to a site I found that had cockpit voice recordings and ATC recordings of plane accidents. I read through the text reports (some) but my husband spends a lot of time reading EVERYTHING on that site. He just sent me something that was funny:
00:44:32 (04:15)

00:44:41 (04:24)
Tower
ROGER, ALTITUDE?
