Joining Sichuan Airlines starts with rescuing the captain of a powerful country

Chapter 211 Correct Operation of 'Dive Tactical Landing'
"Captain, it's already 3500 meters." Liang Dong stared at the altimeter.

When the pointer on the altimeter pointed to '3500 meters', Liang Dong immediately turned around and yelled at Lu Qingzhou.

Lu Qingzhou lowered the flaps and turned on the aircraft's landing system.

At the same time, he did not forget to turn his head and yell at Liang Dong, "Release the landing gear!"

Although Liang Dong's movements were not as agile as Lu Qingzhou's, they still did not hold him back.

Just when Liang Dong released the landing gear, Lu Qingzhou had already reached out to hold the throttle valve lever and quickly moved the throttle to the idle position.

This was Lu Qingzhou's first time flying an aircraft in a "tactical dive landing".

But he had flown on the simulator countless times before.

So these processes have long been engraved in his bones.

Many actions are purely instinctive.

This series of actions was almost completed in a blink of an eye.

In just a few seconds, Lu Qingzhou had completed at least 20 actions.

But it's not over yet.

After all the preparations were completed, Lu Qingzhou immediately focused his attention on the front.

The nose of the plane is now pointed at the runway of Huangtianba Airport.

Lu Qingzhou did not rush to pilot the plane to dive downwards, but gently turned the control stick to the right.

Because the 'tactical dive' requires flying to an angle that is sideways to the runway, when the runway is on the left side of the aircraft, you can even visually see the ground through the porthole.

Of course.

Now the ground is as dark as the sky.

But the runway at Huangtianba Airport has already turned on runway lights.

Airport runway lights can not only penetrate darkness, but can also be clearly visible even in dense fog.

So when you see the runway lights, you can determine the specific location of the runway.

The speed of the plane is not very fast now.

The speed has been controlled by Lu Qingzhou at 550km/h.

A key element of 'diving tactical landing' is that the initial speed must be slow.

If the flight speed is too fast, and the speed of the dive is increased, the aircraft is likely to land on the runway due to the approach speed being too fast.

After determining the exact location of the airport runway, Lu Qingzhou immediately drove the aircraft to the left and entered the dive stage.

Because the plane's flaps and landing gear have just been lowered, the plane's speed will be interfered with by air resistance, and the downward dive will not accelerate too fast.

But it's just that the initial speed won't be too fast.

As the plane continues to dive downward, the speed will become faster and faster.

Lu Qingzhou must concentrate all his attention now.

Because as long as he is distracted for a moment, it may cause the plane to fall into an irreversible situation.

Boom boom. Boom boom.
Along with the thunder and thunder, the sound of the aircraft engine was almost drowned out.

Lu Qingzhou focused all his energy on the operating lever.

When the altitude reached 2000 meters, he immediately reset the operating lever.

At the same time, move it to the left.

1500 meters.
The plane's nose was already aligned with the runway.

If the sky is clear, the pilot can already see the runway clearly from this altitude.

Don't doubt the pilot's vision.

Lu Qingzhou often sees the white zebra crossing at the end of the runway at an altitude of about 1500 meters.

The zebra crossing of the runway is the entrance to the runway.

A key point of the 'dive tactical landing' is to aim the aircraft as close to the white zebra crossing as possible.

The weather conditions are very bad today.

By three or four o'clock in the afternoon, "darkness enveloped the earth."

But even so.

Lu Qingzhou still used the weak runway lights to determine the entrance to the runway.

He immediately made the appropriate symbol of the aircraft press against the white zebra crossing. This is the dive angle that Lu Qingzhou is looking for.

Liang Dong was not idle either.

While he stabilized the plane's rudder, he stared at the plane's altimeter.

Because the plane has now entered a low altitude.

Moreover, the dive speed is too fast, but the aircraft's own power is slightly insufficient.

So I was a little careless.

Aircraft can easily fall into a 'death spiral' trap.

If the plane is stuck in a 'death spiral'.

Then even if the gods come, they won't be able to save it.

Fortunately, they were flying a civilian airliner, and the airport they landed at was not a dangerous mountain airport filled with guerrillas.

Otherwise, Liang Dong, the co-pilot, is really unqualified.

Because when Lao Maozi used the "dive tactical landing" in Afghanistan, he not only had to fight for his life with God, but he also had to be constantly wary of the elusive guerrillas with portable air defense missiles.

When the transport plane dives down to a certain height, the co-pilot also needs to fire a large number of jamming bombs frequently so that the guerrillas on the ground have no chance to react or take aim.

800 meter

600 meter

400 meters.
Flight 3u5578 was like a sharp sword cutting through the void, continuing to dive downwards at lightning speed.

"Height." Lu Qingzhou looked forward, but his voice had already reached Liang Dong's ears.

"1200 feet." Liang Dong responded loudly.

After Lu Qingzhou heard this, he was immediately ready to pull up the plane.

Civil aviation passenger aircraft are not large transport aircraft.

If it is a large transport aircraft, it can continue to descend a few hundred meters before making preparations for landing in time.

This is because almost all transport aircraft adopt a high-wing aerodynamic layout.

Coupled with the auxiliary deceleration of the flaps, the transport aircraft will decelerate very quickly after leveling.

However, the aerodynamic layout of the Airbus A319 passenger aircraft is a conventional layout, which is very different from that of a transport aircraft.

If Lu Qingzhou still uses the transport aircraft-style 'dive landing', what is the difference between him and Zhao Kuo who is talking on paper?
So when the altitude of the aircraft was still 360 meters, he had already started to slow down the speed of the aircraft's downward dive.

He gently pulled up the nose of the plane and stepped on the elevator.

The decline of this Airbus A319 passenger plane has been slightly curbed.

But it's just containment.

The plane still dived downwards toward the runway with an unstoppable attitude.

tower.

The flight trajectory of passenger plane 3u5578 on the radar screen was slightly stable for a minute or two, and then quickly started a downward dive.

No one in the hall spoke.

There is no other sound except the sound of the instrument's beep beep beep.

All eyes are on the radar screen.

Nervousness was written on everyone's face.

Wang Yifan clenched his fists tightly.

just now.

His palms were already covered in sweat.

As the chief of staff of Huangtian Dam Station, Wang Yifan is someone who has seen strong winds and waves.

7 years ago.

When he was the deputy chief of staff of Huangtianba Field Station, he witnessed the successful first flight of the 'fighting aircraft' that changed the history of the Xia Air Force.

But even if that day was worthy of being recorded in history, Wang Yifan was not as nervous as he was today.

why?
Because there are dozens of lives at stake today! ! !
