What would they have done if there wasn't a licensed pilot/passenger on the plane ? would the co-pilot found anyone who has any kind of experience with radios ? someone who has some military experience with handling a radio in the military ?

What would they have done if there wasn't a licensed pilot/passenger...The radio experience isn't critical - it's only part of the 'housekeeping'; the discipline-under-stress ability to follow direction/instruction is what counts.
No one else being a pilot, bet an ex-military type would have stepped forward to lend a hand... and done just fine.
