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

Chapter 418: As a mobile machine gun stand, 'Seventh Master' is the best deterrent
Not a moment later.

The group hurried to the hangar that had been abandoned by the Eritrean Air Force.

Lu Qingzhou and others were shocked to find out.

There was actually a Xia country-made fighter jet parked in this hangar - the J-7G fighter jet.

In addition to this J-7G fighter jet, there is also an An-2 transport aircraft and an Airbus A319 passenger plane that has been dismantled to its empty shell in the hangar.

Lu Qingzhou felt like he had found a treasure.

Especially the A319 passenger plane that was left with only an empty shell, it was like a life-saving straw to Lu Qingzhou and others.

why?

Because although this Airbus A319 passenger plane was stripped down to only the shell, its tail and rudder were still there.

Even though the tail and rudder of the Airbus A319 are smaller than those of the Airbus A350, they are still barely usable.

At least.

It's totally fine to hold on until Djibouti.

Oh shit.

What does it mean that there is always a way out?

This is what they call there is always a way out.

So Lu Qingzhou, Liu Changjian, Liang Dong and Xu Yichen immediately started the dismantling work.

We are going to remove the tail wing and rudder of this Airbus A319 and replace the tail wing and rudder of that Airbus A350.

"Captain Chang Jian, when you were in the army, did you fly a fighter jet or some other type of aircraft?" Lu Qingzhou suddenly asked.

Liu Changjian was stunned at first.

Then he replied, "Transporter, what's wrong?"

"Alas." Lu Qingzhou sighed, and then said helplessly, "It would be great if you could fly a fighter jet."

"What's good about it?"

"It's good that you can fly this fighter jet and deter those terrorists."

"Haha, you're overthinking it. Even if I could, I couldn't fly in another country. This is a huge violation of their sovereignty."

"What's the use of invasion or not? We have to save our lives first. Alas, it's too late to say anything now. Let's just tear it down quickly. The sooner we get it done, the sooner we can leave."

A few hours later.

Zong Dawei walked into the hangar, looked at the rusty J-7G fighter with curiosity, and asked, "Can this thing really be used?"

Lu Qingzhou climbed out from under the plane.

He first wiped the oil stains on his face with a tissue, and then said uncertainly, "It should be okay."

a few hours ago.

Lu Qingzhou and his team finally removed the rudder and tail wing.

Then Liu Changjian took Liang Dong and Xu Yichen to the runway to remove the broken parts.

Lu Qingzhou felt that he was just sitting around doing nothing.

He started tinkering with this J-7G fighter jet.

Be prepared.

In case the broken rudder and tail wing cannot be replaced in a short time, and the terrorists from the "Hoko Haram" come again, Lu Qingzhou feels that he and his men must have a weapon that can deter the enemy.

And this J-7G fighter jet.

It is the best deterrent weapon.

Besides, Lu Qingzhou didn't want to make this fighter plane fly.

It just needs to be able to be moved outside the hangar and then act as a movable machine gun stand.

Then it will be a nightmare for those terrorists.

So Lu Qingzhou immediately turned on the fighter's avionics system and performed a self-check.

Although Lu Qingzhou is a civil airliner pilot, he has flown fighter simulators.

Not only flew by.

And the results are not bad. Although the simulator and the real machine are completely different.

But Lu Qingzhou had no choice but to go ahead with it now.

After a self-inspection of the avionics system, Lu Qingzhou found that the J-7G fighter did not have any major problems except that the landing gear had not been maintained for a long time.

So he quickly found a bottle of lubricant, disassembled the landing gear shell and started maintenance.

What is the effect? ​​!

Lu Qingzhou didn't dare to make any guarantees.

Why was there a fighter jet left at Sirte Airport?
This kind of thing seems magical in Xia Country, but it is very normal in a country like Eritrea with turbulent and chaotic political situation.

Give a simple example.

Twenty or thirty years ago.

After the old Russians fell apart, the two major Russians, who inherited most of the military and political legacy, had chaotic management, which led to a large number of military products being smuggled around the world.

At that time.

Guns, tanks, armored vehicles, warships, fighter planes.
All weapons and ammunition are smuggled and sold.

In Ermao Country, some people even put a price tag on mushroom eggs.

As long as you have money, you can buy all the Russian weapons you want from these people.

Fortunately, the Americans intervened quickly and fooled Ermao into destroying the mushroom eggs in the country on their own initiative.

Otherwise, a nuclear war would have broken out 20 to 30 years ago.

Since its independence, Eritrea has been in turmoil and its military has been plagued by corruption.

So it is normal for any strange things to happen.

Not to mention that a fighter plane was left behind in the hangar, if there were mushroom eggs in this country, it would be reasonable for them to be lost or sold.

Again.

When a country is about to perish, there must be monsters.

"How are Captain Chang Jian and the others?!" Lu Qingzhou asked.

Zong Dawei replied, "I just came over from their place. Captain Chang Jian has almost finished changing the plane, but there is still a problem, which is how to tow the huge guy weighing hundreds of tons out of the side emergency road."

When Lu Qingzhou heard this, he immediately laughed.

He patted the wing of the J-7G fighter and said with a smile, "We don't have a large tractor, but we have a fighter. I just want to run a couple of laps to test the performance of the fighter, so I'll use the Seventh Master to tow the A350 out first."

Zong Dawei looked puzzled, "Will this work?!"

"What a joke! This 'Qi Ye' model J-7G fighter jet was only approved in 2001 and made its first successful flight in 2003. Although it is an improved version of the J-7 series fighter jets, it is also a 2.5-generation aircraft. Its first flight was 10 years later than that of the J-5 Raptor." Lu Qingzhou began to explain.

Then he pointed at the fighter's engine and said, "See the engine? It's a domestically produced WP-13 turbojet engine with great thrust and long life. It can push a fighter weighing dozens of tons into the sky, but it can't tow an Airbus A350 weighing hundreds of tons on the ground?!"

Zong Dawei can't be said to have only a vague understanding of this aspect, but he can only say that he is completely in the dark.

So when he saw Jiang Chen was so confident, he felt relieved.

Now, as long as they can tow the Airbus A350 passenger plane that ran off the runway back to the runway, their plan to evacuate Sirte Airport will be half successful.

The situation in Sirte is getting worse day by day, and the government forces have decided to abandon the city.

There is no protection from government forces.

They are just a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Zong Dawei was extremely grateful that he had strongly requested the airport manager to agree to Sichuan Airlines flight 3u9898 to make an emergency landing at Sirte Airport last night.

Now we have the plane for evacuation and the experienced crew.

As long as everything goes well.

In a few hours I'll be able to leave this crappy place.

Zong Dawei felt guilty when he thought of his pregnant wife who was about to give birth in China.

When his wife needed him the most, he was thousands of miles away.

So this time I returned to China.

You must spend more time with her.
