Airport Meow

Chapter 100
Flight 256 is still gambling on luck, but the other three flights are the first to usher in their own life-and-death test!

Surprisingly, Great Chill Airlines flight 7125, which was ranked last, became the first character in the accident fleet to see the outcome.

"Ignition failed!" Cheon Jae-seok was a little dejected. They had tried to restart the engine 15 times, but nothing happened.

"Don't worry about those damn engines, help me hold the rudder, we're looking for a relatively calm sea!"

Jiang Donghao gave orders unceremoniously.

They had to choose to make an emergency landing at sea. As flight 7125 was the last of the four flights, there were not many options left for them.

Because it is a cargo plane, the load capacity is much larger than that of a passenger plane by 50%!This is a very important economic indicator, and the operation of cargo planes will never let it go without filling the cargo hold.It doesn't matter when there is motivation, but now that the motivation is lost, they will fall extremely fast!
If you barely fly, let alone the airport, you may not even be able to see the coastline!
But because it is a cargo plane, it is not very difficult to make a forced landing at sea. There are no passengers, and they only need to be responsible for their own lives.

Life jackets have already been put on. Since the development of large aircraft, in fact, great progress has been made in safety measures. For example, in the cockpit of the 959 passenger plane, there is a special emergency escape hatch, which can withstand the water pressure and open the life passage for the pilot. .

What they want to ensure is that the landing angle of attack must not be too large, but must be suitable. The landing gear cannot be lowered, and the landing gear should be taxied into the water as flat as possible.

Knowing that they will definitely make an emergency landing at sea, there is no room for maneuver, so there is not much difference between landing earlier or later; of course, they will try to get as close to the coastline as possible, which is conducive to the arrival of rescue helicopters.

More important than being close to the coastline is to find a quieter sea area; the moon is dark and dark, they can't see the sea surface, and of course they can't see the waves, but they can detect the wind direction through the weather radar, and the areas with less wind will have natural waves Just small, this is common sense.

According to this idea, under the control of Jiang Donghao, flight 7125 slid to the sea they thought was safer. They had little choice. Without power, the range of movement of the plane was within the taxiing distance.

Because the captain had to concentrate on manually operating the plane, the burden of judging the wind speed through the weather radar fell on Cheon Jae-seok. He was very reluctant to petition, but there was nothing he could do. In the Dahan aviation industry, the captain’s words are everything.

He didn't speak, and the horse-fart-jingquan Xiangri also didn't speak. The two chose to believe in authority at the end of the plane's life and death.

Their silence caught the attention of the captain Jiang Donghao. The captain has rich experience. He knows what the two lieutenants are thinking. Normally, he would ignore it, but now that life and death are shared, they also need to support each other when drifting in the sea. Maybe he needs the help of two young people, so he explained it once in a while.

"You must be thinking, instead of focusing all your energy on finding the sea area where you made an emergency landing, why don't you hurry up and restart the engine a few more times?"

Seeing the two of them was a bit awkward, he knew he had guessed right,
"Half a year ago, a 939 of Huaguo Dragon Airlines had an accident. Have you noticed?"

Quan Xiangri joked: "I know, it seems that Longhang's internal code name is B2? About the stuck stabilizer at the rear."

Jiang Donghao has rich experience and knows that the more critical the moment is, the more he must relax the spirit of his companions around him. Being too nervous will cause deformation of the operation, which is very dangerous in an emergency landing.

"So, what did you learn from it?"

Neither of them dared to say that Quan Xiangri was not qualified, while Qian Zaishi was reminded of his status as a student from the moment he boarded the plane, so he dared not say something.

Jiang Donghao knew them, and didn't expect them to say anything real. In front of him, their little experience was pitiful.

"Leaving aside the question of whether to question the captain, that is the level of power gradient in the cockpit, and we don't consider it.

What I want to talk about is the application of driving skills and the proper handling of crisis situations! "

Jiang Donghao put on the appearance of a senior, and he is indeed a senior, "A key principle of crisis management is not to do meaningless operations, but to make more meaningful attempts!
B2 stopped this action after operating the stabilizer motor three times. It is precisely judged that this is a meaningless operation. If it continues, it may cause the stabilizer to completely lose control!
For the same reason, today, on the current 7125, we have operated the engine ignition for more than ten times, but there is still no sign of starting; then, should we continue to focus on this meaningless restart?Or is it more about finding a suitable alternate landing on the sea? "

Smiling slightly, "I made a forced landing on the sea, and the wave head is one meter shorter, so our chances of success are a little bit higher! If you spend all your time restarting the engine, the chance of success is not high, but the possibility of hitting a big wave in the final forced landing is very high." Big, such a choice is not smart!
I'm sure, if that Huaguo B2 is now operating the plane, he will also focus on how to make a forced landing as he did last time, instead of pressing the ignition button repeatedly in vain! "

Quan Xiangri was completely overwhelmed, but Qian Zaishi still didn't think so, but this was not the time to talk back, he didn't have the courage of Huaguo B2, he dared to kick the captain out and take over himself!
It is true that the wind and waves are high, but it is not inevitable that the wind is small and the waves are low!Because it depends on how much sea surface you are in to consider this issue!

If they have the power to fly very far, the waves will be low where the wind is light; but they have no power, so they can only make use of stitches on the bigger sea. The swell will not weaken at all, it will even be higher!
He really wanted to say, now that the plane is at a low altitude, the oxygen is sufficient, and the possibility of restarting the engine in mid-air is greatly increased, he should take advantage of this time to start it a few more times... But in the end, he didn't say anything.

Those jokes when he just boarded the plane still put a lot of pressure on him virtually!
The captain is experienced, the captain flies a lot of time, the captain is a teacher...and he is a student!
If it was really because he had focused his energy on the ignition of the engine but failed, and encountered big waves during the forced landing, he would be the culprit who killed the three people!

So, just listen to the captain, shall we?

Finally approaching the surface of the sea, under the strong illumination of the navigation lights and floor lamps, the 7125 crew finally saw the sea rushing towards them, just like a huge liquid monster, its tentacles were 6 to 7 meters huge waves on the sea surface!

Jiang Donghao was terrified, "How did you find the wind direction? The waves here are bigger than normal, and we were all killed by you!"

Qian Zaishi closed his eyes in despair, there was no chance, there was no motivation at such a height, they couldn't change it at all!
At the last moment of the voyage he finally offered his opinion,
"Captain, who told you that if the wind is small, the waves will be small? We should try to start more instead of diving headlong into the sea!"

7125 crashed into the rough sea, and was torn to pieces in a blink of an eye at a speed of nearly 2 knots!
