Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The woman in the Control Centre looked at the narrator strangely because the narrator asked her about the black aeroplane but she saw no plane except the narrator’s plane in the sky during the storm. Even the radar showed only the narrator’s plane in the sky that night. Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-2: -There was no other aircraft in the storm because the woman was only able to see his aircraft on the radar at the control center. Interestingly, that night, no other plane flew. He’d maybe been hallucinating in his panic.
