Airport Meow

Chapter 108

Bei Haiyang still has a question, but the maintenance staff is very busy, and he can't take up other people's time all the time.

An old man walked up to him, as if he knew what he wanted to ask,
"The volcanic ash clogged the engine, causing the airflow in the main core of the engine to be disturbed. When the engine was not completely burned, it would cause backfire and then stall. This is a gradual process, but because of the density of the volcanic ash, the process is very fast.

Too much fuel in the engine, not enough oxygen..."

Bei Haiyang is very grateful for his explanation. A pilot who is interested in these specific things will make people feel that he is not doing his job properly, but he is a person who breaks the casserole and asks the bottom line. Knowing more things is always good. Therefore, this It is rare to find an old man who takes the initiative to explain to him.

"So, why does the engine re-ignite when it's plugged? Is it the jolt or something else?"

The old man smiled, and he was willing to answer questions and solve problems for the studious young man, "An amazing chemical effect saved this plane!

When the engines stop revving, remember that at [-] feet, everything cools down!The molten ash started to fall, which is how the engine was finally able to restart. "

Seeing that Bei Haiyang was still puzzled, the old man further explained:

"When a certain amount of volcanic ash falls due to cooling down, the engine is like a partial dredging, and many places are no longer blocked, and your desperate efforts to restart the engine have a price!

This cooling time, half an hour is not enough to produce a sufficient degree of chemical action to unclog the engine, so the other three flights still failed to start successfully before the final crash!
But 256 is different!Your ingenious hovering bought you at least 15 minutes of time!It was this short 15 minutes that allowed the engine to finally have the conditions to restart!
Young man, you saved hundreds of people, Long Hang should award you a medal! "

Bei Haiyang had lingering fears, "Good luck, good luck!"

The old man looked at him with interest, "Is it just luck? Then what are you doing here now? Curious?"

Bei Haiyang said truthfully, "I am also curious, and I also want to know more things to judge whether my choice at that time was correct? Is there any other safer way? It is not to gamble in the sky! To be honest, I don't want to gamble again Already!"

The old man laughed. He admired the young man's attitude. He was eager to learn even if he dared to gamble, and he had a little intuition. This is the necessary condition for a miracle to happen!
"Have you found another way?"

Bei Haiyang shook his head, "Not yet! But at least I have learned a lot from this experience, such as when encountering such a situation, I should quickly find a direction to avoid the volcanic cloud, instead of thinking that it is what it is St. Elmo's Fire, we lost 20 minutes before the engine died, which could have done something.

It doesn’t make any sense to start the engine immediately after it’s blocked, the more time goes on, the more important it is…”

The old man asked, "If you were the captain of flight 1306 or 961, what would you do? Are you still circling and waiting for the restart?"

Bei Haiyang did not hesitate, "If I were the captain of flight 1306, I would choose to make an emergency landing without hesitation! But I will not choose Narita Airport, I will choose Xinze Airport!

If I were to fly flight 961, I am not sure which choice I would make, circling and forced landing in Xinxie are both possible; if I am more familiar with the surrounding environment of Xinxie Airport, the possibility of forced landing is more likely..."

The old man rolled his eyes, "Well, hovering is only your second choice?"

Bei Haiyang was confident, "Hovering is a gamble! I gambled because I had no other choice! I couldn't even skate!
If I can slide, of course I will choose the forced landing that I can grasp more! "

The old man stared at him, "Didn't you consider ditching at sea from the beginning to the end?"

Bei Haiyang shook his head, "In my opinion, ditching at sea is giving up! It's just a nice name! At least a few meters of waves, what's the difference between this and hitting a wall? There is only one Hudson River in the history of aviation, which cannot be replicated. It shouldn't be a viable option, it should only be a last ditch!"

The old man joked, "It's a pity that the pickles in the first cargo hold..."

The two finally found something in common. The old man stretched out his hand, "I'm Masao Kawara, from the flight department of Quandao Air. If there is a chance in the future, would you be interested in coming to Quandao Air to see our fleet..."

Bei Haiyang was a little surprised. He didn't know this person, but he seemed to be an old man with a high status in the whole island?

"Let's talk about it? Seniors also know that the circulation of personnel in the aviation industry is not so convenient..."

Masao Kawahara smiled, "Don't rush to refuse! This is an era of world fusion, anything is possible..."

… On the fourth day after the accident, All Island Air and Dragon Airlines jointly held a press conference for Flight 256; this timing is not suitable for the aviation industry, because there are also the shadow pressure of the accident of the other three flights.

But the reporters don’t care about that, they urgently need a selling point, and the aviation community of the island country also needs a fig leaf to cheer up, to cover up those ugly air crashes, boost people’s confidence, and eliminate the fear of air travel, so it hit it off .

The protagonists are three pilots, Hirata who has regained consciousness but is still sitting in a wheelchair, and then two young people, Bei Haiyang and Ito Daiguang. Under the spotlight, the expressions of the three of them are a little unnatural!

Captain Hirata was unhappy because he thought he shouldn't be standing here. The honor belongs to the two young people, not him who fainted all the way!But this was a joint decision between Quandaokong and Longhang, even if he was in a coma and did nothing at the time, he was still the captain!

This is the traditional value of the Eastern world. No matter how outstanding a young pilot's performance is, isn't that what his master taught him?In the aviation industry, this traditional value must not be messed up!It represents the actual existence of the system, promotion sequence, seniority ranking and so on.

In the traditional cognition of civil aviation, one of the most core things is that you cannot completely replace the accumulation of time and experience with emergency accident handling. Compressed to one part in a million, the meaning behind this is that a pilot who has been flying for a lifetime without accidents is far more rare than a pilot who frequently and successfully handles emergencies!
The truth of the aviation industry is that a good fighter has no great achievements!
Therefore, they can satisfy the outside world's flattering reports on the crew, but inside the airline, they still strictly abide by the rules. Even the insiders actually understand how amazing Beiyang's handling of the air accident is!
Especially Long Hang, they don't want to destroy the young people because of excessive elevation!
Civil aviation airliner is not a place for pilots to show off their flying skills!
