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

Chapter 313: The incident happened suddenly, and the dormant volcano erupted
Po County is about 2600 kilometers away from Yangcheng.

The c919 is designed to have a range of more than kilometers.

In other words.

Even if it was not fully fueled, the C919 could still arrive safely at Singapore's Changi Airport after making a big circle over the South China Sea.

When it took off from Baiyun Airport, the C919 was indeed not fully fueled.

It was only filled with about 70 percent of aviation fuel.

When leaving the South China Sea and about to enter the Sulu Sea, Lu Qingzhou immediately changed the aircraft's driving mode from automatic driving to manual driving.

Then gently push the joystick to the left.

The plane immediately turned left and slightly deviated from the planned route.

Because the plane is about to fly over the Nusa Tenggara volcano.

Although the meteorological department has reported that the Nusa Tenggara volcano was only a small-scale eruption, the volcanic ash was only ejected about one thousand meters upwards at most.

But just to be on the safe side.

Lu Qingzhou decided to bypass the Nusa Tenggara volcano.

After all, although the large amount of volcanic ash only stays in the airspace of one thousand meters, what if small particles are carried to an altitude of more than ten thousand meters by rising air currents?
The C919 is still in the test flight stage.

If the engine was caught in volcanic ash and an accident occurred, it would be a waste of time.

"Are we approaching Po County?" Chen Bingbing asked curiously as she looked at the scenery outside the plane.

Lu Qingzhou replied while controlling the plane, "There are only a few hundred kilometers left. It will take at most an hour to get there."

"Oh" Chen Bingbing did not look back, but continued to look out the porthole intently.

Xu Yichen asked with a smile, "Has Bingbing been to Singapore?"

Chen Bingbing came back to her senses and said, "I've been there once."

"I haven't been there yet. If I wasn't pressed for time and didn't bring my passport, I would have liked to go for a stroll." Xu Yichen also looked out the window.

"There's really nothing to see in Singapore." Chen Bingbing said with a smile, "Otherwise why is it called 'Singapore County'?"

"The place is small and the appearance is average. If it weren't for the good location, this shabby place would be no different from Dongdiwen."

Chen Bingbing just finished speaking.

He turned his gaze to the outside of the plane window again.

"what?"

Sudden.

Chen Bingbing exclaimed softly, pointed out the window and continued, "That cloud over there is so strange, it's actually a cylindrical cloud, and the color is pitch black, just like a cumulonimbus cloud."

"Where?" Xu Yichen propped himself up and looked around.

Lu Qingzhou also turned his head and looked out of the plane window.

But when he saw this cylindrical cloud, his face changed instantly.

How can this be called a cumulonimbus cloud?
It was clearly volcanic ash being ejected upwards by the volcano.

Hey!
Wasn't it said that the Nusa Tenggara volcano was just a small-scale eruption?
How come the volcanic ash has been carried to an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters?
Is this a small eruption?
It has already exceeded the world record!
Think of this!
Lu Qingzhou couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Fortunately, I changed the route in advance.

If we insist on following the planned route and flying over the Nusa Tenggara volcano.

Perhaps this cloud of volcanic ash will not pose a threat to me, but a large amount of volcanic ash will definitely be drawn into the engine.

At that time, it may cause irreversible damage to the engine.

"Oh my god." Xu Yichen was also dumbfounded, pointing at the cylindrical cloud and saying in amazement, "That's volcanic ash, right? The height of that volcanic ash must be at least 7,000 to 8,000 meters. Wasn't it said to be a small-scale eruption? How come the volcanic ash was ejected to such a high altitude?"

"Volcano ash?" Chen Bingbing was shocked.

"Didn't Captain Chang Jian say that the volcanic ash would only reach a few hundred to a thousand meters at most? What's going on?"

Lu Qingzhou shook his head, "He was just relaying the forecast from the meteorological department."

"In the face of nature, all scientific equipment of mankind is just a decoration."

Chen Bingbing hurriedly urged, "Then let's go quickly. I'm a little scared."

The aftermath of the 5.28 accident is still continuing.

Lu Qingzhou turned around and blinked at him.

He smiled and said, "Are you scared now?"

"Sister, sit tight, I'm going to start racing."

Done.

He pushed the throttle lever forward gently.

Unknowingly.

The plane slowly picked up speed.

soon.

The cruising speed increased from 770km/h to 890km/h.

So the flight was originally about 40 minutes.

It took only half an hour to reach Singapore Changi Airport.

Because the C919 has not obtained its airworthiness certificate, it cannot stay at Changi Airport for too long.

As soon as the delegation attending the World Civil Aviation Conference got off the plane, Lu Qingzhou quickly notified the airport ground staff to refuel the plane.

After the plane's fuel was replenished to 80%, Lu Qingzhou immediately asked the airport tower for permission to take off again.

It only took about 30 minutes from landing to taking off again.

The speed is not bad.

The capital of Dongti.

The Xia State Embassy in Dongtiwen was in chaos.

Recently.

The dormant Nusa Tenggara volcano has become active again.

There were also several small-scale eruptions in succession.

According to the prediction of geological experts, the eruption of Nusa Tenggara volcano was just a continuation of Mount Yadi more than a month ago and would not cause much impact.

But just this afternoon.

The Nusa Tenggara volcano has suddenly become very active.

Do not!
Not just active.

It should be a 'long-planned' explosion.

The Nusa Tenggara volcano seemed to have completely erupted the energy that had been suppressed for dozens or hundreds of years at this moment.

Red-hot volcanic lava was ejected like machine-gun bullets and then flowed down from the mountain like a flood.

The volcanic ash that erupted was soaring into the sky, and was actually sprayed directly to a height of seven or eight thousand meters.

The volcanic ash was sprayed to a height of seven or eight thousand meters. You can imagine how powerful this eruption was.

This is not the point.

The point is.

The Nusa Tenggara volcano is still very active.

No one knows when the next eruption of the volcano will be.

Nusa Tenggara volcano is located in the Nusa Tenggara Islands.

Because of its rich tourism resources and oil and gas resources, the island has not only attracted many tourists to travel to the archipelago, but also attracted many companies to invest and build factories.

some of.

There are tourists and businesses from China.

Currently.

The number of domestic tourists and workers stranded in the archipelago is about 200.

However, because flights to the Nusa Tenggara Islands have been suspended, no planes or ships can reach the islands.

And because it happened suddenly.

The embassy was also unable to dispatch planes and ships for rescue immediately.

It's quite like the frustration of "a good cook cannot cook without rice".

Inside the embassy.

Counselor Xu Yun looked at the ambassador with a heavy face and reported, "This happened too suddenly. There is no time to organize rescue forces now."

The ambassador also looked helpless.

The main island of the Nusa Tenggara Islands, Nusa Tenggara Island, has an airport and a port.

But there were no rescue planes or ships.

It’s useless to have airports and ports.

"Are there any instructions from home?" the ambassador asked with a frown.

Xu Yun shook his head. "This happened suddenly. I guess the country is still in a state of confusion."

"Alas," the ambassador sighed deeply.

Xu Yun was right.

Natural disasters come without warning.

It happened so suddenly.

China is not Aladdin’s lamp.

Just make a wish and it will come true immediately.

just
Watching two hundred compatriots stranded in danger and unable to be rescued, my heart ached as if it were being stabbed by needles.

"No matter what, we must immediately organize rescue forces to go to the Nusa Tenggara Islands for rescue. If we can save one person, we must save one person," the ambassador said in a deep voice.

Xu Yun did not answer.

Instead, he nodded silently.

Because he knew how helpless his leader was when he said this.

in the office.

The atmosphere gradually became depressing.

But at this time.

The office door was pushed open at once.

A young man rushed into the office and said anxiously, "Ambassador, there is a plane. We just received news from China that one of our planes will soon arrive in Dongtiwen airspace."
