Rejecting Qinghua Baoyan, I became a military officer

Chapter 313: Damn it, the landing gear can’t be lowered!

Chapter 313: Damn it, the landing gear can’t be lowered!
The indicator light is off, what does it mean?
This indicator light is used to show whether the aircraft's landing gear is down and locked in place.

Now, the light is off.

In this case, it means that the landing gear of the aircraft is not lowered.

Of course, it is also possible that the landing gear has been lowered, but the related sensors or other equipment were damaged in the explosion just now, causing the indicator light to not light up.

In this regard, Xu Ye did not panic.

On the other hand, Chen Tingxuan's heart tightened, and his worries became even higher.

Of course, it didn't show on the face.

"Again!"

Chen Tingxuan said in a deep voice.

At this time, Chen Tingxuan still thought that Xu Ye was a rookie who had just "learned", and never imagined that Xu Ye was already an "old driver".

Otherwise, death is certain.

"Captain Chen, I have this worry too!" Xu Ye did not deny it.

If you haven't completely let go, there is no difference between not letting go.

If the landing gear of the aircraft cannot be lowered, there is still a chance of survival unless it is forced to land on the water.

Zhao Yang didn't dare to explode. If he maneuvered at such a distance, he would break the plane.

Worryingly, the landing gear indicator light did not come on.

Even though Chen Tingxuan turned out to be an Air Force transport aircraft pilot.

In that incident, it was simply that the plane's front landing gear could not be retracted or extended, and it eventually had to make an emergency landing.

But, what about this time?

However, now the plane has experienced an explosion and a big hole has been broken in the fuselage.

However, the aircraft's landing gear was not fully lowered. The nose gear obviously failed and was not fully lowered.

The house leaks but it rains all night!
For the current flight 8633, it is undoubtedly a mixed blessing.

"8633, the rear landing gear of the aircraft has been lowered, but the front landing gear has not been fully lowered."

But, in comparison, it pales into insignificance.

"Captain Chen, the indicator light should be broken."

After all, compared to myself who is used to seeing life and death, it is very rare for an ordinary person like Chen Tingxuan to behave like this in this life-and-death situation.

Yes, maybe the indicator light is broken!
"Shall I contact the team leader now and let them see if our landing gear is lowered?"

"Xu Ye, it is theoretically possible to throw out the nose landing gear through maneuvers."

Fortunately, the plane has successfully descended from an altitude of more than 5,000 meters to this altitude without disintegrating.

"8633, can you use maneuvers to throw out the nose landing gear?" Zhao Yang suggested.

With that said, Xu Ye picked up the intercom.

The current situation reminded everyone present of an emergency landing incident that occurred in the Dragon Kingdom a few years ago. It was also the first civil aviation emergency landing incident in the Dragon Kingdom.

At the same time, the fact that the nose landing gear of flight 8633 could not be completely lowered has been reported to the command center below.

"Well, what you said makes sense!" Chen Tingxuan nodded.

Although, the tone didn't change at all.

Therefore, these words are only suggestions, not orders.

However, Zhao Yang was full of worries about the fate of Xu Ye and 8633.

"But, can the current structural strength of the aircraft be maintained?"

For a moment, everyone felt a little relaxed, but then became nervous again.

Ever since Chen Tingxuan handed over control of the plane, Chen Tingxuan had unconsciously put Xu Ye in the leading position.

Soon, Zhao Yang told them the same mixed news.

With that said, Xu Ye pressed the switch to release the landing gear again, but the indicator light still did not come on.

Xu Ye glanced at Chen Tingxuan and said with a smile.

In the 8633 cockpit, seeing that Xu Ye didn't speak, Chen Tingxuan couldn't help but speak.

The incident took place in 1998 and became widely known the following year when it was shown on the big screen.

At this altitude, although it is still cold, at least it will not freeze to death or make people feel hypoxic.

"Captain, this is 8633. Please help me see if the landing gear of the plane is down?"

"Okay, Captain Chen!"

At this time, even Chen Tingxuan, the "old driver", had a look of panic on his face.

This suggestion, if the plane is intact, then do it.

Xu Ye was right, the indicator light was indeed broken.

Not only did the plane experience an explosion and a big hole was blown out of the fuselage, the pilot of the plane was an armored scout with only fighter and helicopter driving experience.

Although the captain survived, he basically lost the ability to continue flying the plane.

Therefore, when someone mentioned this incident, it was suggested that Flight 8633 follow the example of Flight 586 at that time and first lower the aircraft, then climb, and then slide sideways with a small radius.

If the front landing gear cannot be lowered, use the rear landing gear to land again, and rely on the vibration and inertia of the aircraft to lower the landing gear.

Some people even suggested asking someone to go down with a rope to see if it could be solved manually.

Others suggested taking it back first and then trying to let it go.

However, this proposal was rejected outright.

At least the two rear landing gears have been successfully lowered now. If they are retracted and the rear landing gears cannot be lowered, the plane will have no choice but to make an emergency landing in Dianchi Lake.

In that case, let’s not talk about whether Xu Ye has that technology.

It is to imitate the "Captain Sally Incident" that occurred in 2009 in the original time and space, that is, an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York.

Afterwards, all 155 people on the plane survived, and Chesley Sullenberger became a hero.

Just talk about the big hole that was blown in the 8633 plane. The plane couldn't float on the water in a short time.

By then, I don’t know how many people will die!
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, this plan will never be an option.

In the end, the team leader made the decision and left it to the crew on board to make their own choices.

Because they know the situation of the aircraft better.

Of course, preparations on the ground are also being made urgently.

Fortunately, because of the emergency landing incident last year, all major domestic airports have prepared enough foam fire trucks.

There will never be the embarrassment of that incident where there were not enough foam fire trucks and the fire-fighting foam could not cover the entire runway.

Not only was Wujiaba Airport moving again, but Dianchi Lake not far away was also moving.

Without him, just prepare with both hands.

Soon, the opinions of the ground command center reached Xu Ye's ears.

"Captain Chen, can you still hold on?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Ye looked at Chen Tingxuan and said.

At this time, we absolutely cannot trust autonomous driving.

Therefore, even if he saw that Chen Tingxuan's right forearm was swollen and thicker than his calf, Xu Ye still had to speak.

As for Ma Zhaomin, who was still unconscious, Xu Ye didn't even look at him.

If you leave it to him, you might as well make an emergency landing!

"I can still hold on!"

Chen Tingxuan bit it and said.

Chen Tingxuan understands what Xu Ye means!

If we don’t fight now, when will we fight?
Besides, the dangers faced by Xu Ye and others are much greater than his own.

Even though the speed of the plane has dropped a lot, it still maintains a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour.

You know, the speed of Category 16 typhoon does not exceed 200 kilometers per hour!

"Okay, I'll be back soon."

After speaking, Xu Ye picked up the microphone and asked Du Fengyue to come over and assist him through the in-camera broadcast.

He went down to check the condition of the landing gear. Someone had to hold the safety rope for him.

When Du Fengyue came to the cab out of breath, Xu Ye told him the situation he was facing in a concise and concise manner before he could take a breath.

"Okay, no problem!" After a while, Du Fengyue, who finally digested the unexpected situation, rubbed his face up and down with both hands and cheered up.

We’ve already experienced the explosion, but it’s just a landing gear, so what does it matter?

In less than an hour, Du Fengyue felt that his mental journey was much more exciting than in previous decades.

Facing hijacking, being beaten by hijackers, hitting the co-pilot, facing explosions, and almost being sucked out of the plane...

Now the nose landing gear of the plane cannot be extended anymore.

In this regard, Du Fengyue didn't know what to say, just one word and it was over.

As for whether he could land safely in the end, to be honest, at least at this moment, Du Fengyue didn't think about it at all.

Just follow Xu Ye's arrangements.

"Captain Chen, hold on!"

After saying that, Xu Ye returned the control of the plane to Chen Tingxuan, who was already ready.

Immediately afterwards, the constantly vibrating control lever caused cold sweat to break out on Chen Tingxuan's forehead.

No more nonsense, Xu Ye quickly entered the warehouse below under the leadership of Du Fengyue.

Because of Chen Tingxuan's injury, the plane's shaking was inevitably made worse.

For a moment, the faces of everyone in the cabin behind became panicked again.

Fortunately, there was no yelling this time, everyone was praying silently, praying that Xu Ye could bring them another miracle.

"Okay, let's go!"

When Xu Ye saw a hydraulic pipe ruptured, he turned directly to Du Fengyue and said.

Obviously, this should be caused by the previous explosion.

There is no way to solve this kind of failure in heaven.

For now, we can only make an emergency landing.

Hearing this, Du Fengyue opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything and quickly followed.

Isn't this the time to waste time? Isn't it time to watch the trembling of the plane getting worse?

It was obvious that in just a few minutes, Chen Tingxuan could no longer hold on.

After all, there is nothing wrong with driving a Ferrari with one hand, but it is still difficult to fly an airplane with one hand, let alone an airplane with a big hole in it and which is shaking violently.

Sure enough, when Xu Ye entered the cockpit, he saw Chen Tingxuan's face was pale, and his body was covered with sweat again.

"I come!"

Without any delay, Xu Ye quickly took over the plane.

After handing over control, Chen Tingxuan collapsed directly on his seat, and Du Fengyue hurried over to wipe his sweat.

"Mr. Xu, how are you doing?"

Waving his hands to indicate that he was fine, Chen Tingxuan asked weakly and urgently.

"Captain Chen"

Without hiding anything, Xu Ye told him what he had discovered.

After hearing this, Chen Tingxuan could not hide his disappointment.

As for the plan of maneuvering and landing, it was shattered after Xu Ye's exploration.

Quite simply, the explosion had caused great damage to the aircraft.

If this is done, it is hard to say whether the landing gear can be thrown out or whether the aircraft can hold on without breaking.

"Prepare for an emergency landing!"

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Tingxuan closed his eyes in pain.

This choice is difficult, but it is 8633's last choice and opportunity.

"Captain Chen, I think so too."

Noticing Chen Tingxuan's expression from the corner of his eye, Xu Ye said calmly.

"Well!"

Chen Tingxuan opened his eyes, "Mr. Xu, have you seen the movie "Crash Landing"?"

"Seen!"

Xu Ye nodded, understanding what Chen Tingxuan meant.

Except for the fact that there was an extra hole in the plane and the experienced captain was replaced by a "rookie" like himself, everything else was the same.

However, these two additional differences made Chen Tingxuan less confident that the emergency landing would be successful.

The reason for this choice is just to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

"dare?"

Chen Tingxuan then asked.

"dare!"

Xu Ye said confidently.

While he was talking, Xu Ye started to "kryptonize" his liver volume, and he "kryptonated" more than 3,000 in an instant.

By this time, his military and civilian aircraft piloting had reached the intermediate expert level.

At this level, he is not the best in the country, but he is definitely better than Chen Tingxuan next to him.

After all, the experts in the system are much more genuine than the experts in reality.

This can be seen from skills such as shooting.

As his skills improved, Xu Ye became more and more comfortable controlling the aircraft.

Even the vibrations of the plane are much smaller.

As for completely eliminating the shock, that's impossible.

Such a big hole would have already destroyed the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft, and vibrations are inevitable.

"Okay, next, let me tell you the key points of this landing method..."

There was no nonsense, and he didn't even have time to report to the command center below. Chen Tingxuan even forgot about the pain in his arm and began to quickly explain the key points of the operation to Xu Ye.

In a word, after the rear wheel of the aircraft lands, the time for the nose of the aircraft to touch the ground should be slowed down as much as possible.

The later the nose touches the ground, the safer the aircraft is.

On the contrary, it is more dangerous.

Friction fire, fire and explosion...

The consequences could be disastrous.

Therefore, Chen Tingxuan told Xu Ye everything he knew as much as possible.

Even though Chen Tingxuan himself has never practiced it and has no relevant experience.

"Mr. Xu, is there anything else you don't understand?"

A few minutes later, Chen Tingxuan looked at Xu Ye with some anticipation and nervousness.

"Captain Chen, I understand everything."

Without any hesitation, Xu Ye said confidently.

I really understand.

Moreover, in Xu Ye's case, Chen Tingxuan's professor just now still had some omissions.
