Chapter 961 Flying Genius

The cabin was already messed up just now, and the cries, prayers, and the howling of the strong wind pouring into the cabin were mixed together - the cockpit door had been destroyed, and the wind from the broken windshield blew directly into the cabin. .

The first class is a little better. There are not many people, and the quality of the passengers is also higher. Under the persuasion of the flight attendants, they can still sit in their seats relatively quietly. Of course, they are also scared and pale, many people Continue to cross your chest in prayer.

What Feng Jing was even more worried about was that after Xia Ruofei went to the front, she never came back. She was very worried about Xia Ruofei's safety.

At this moment, the flight attendant Gu Li came over, leaned into her ear and said that her friend was in the cockpit and asked her to come with her. She immediately stood up and followed Gu Li to the cockpit.

When they came to the cockpit, Feng Jing was even more startled. Captain Brook in the co-pilot seat was dripping with blood on his arm. The windshield in front of him had disappeared, and there was only a big hole that the strong wind kept pouring into it. The cockpit was a mess, and the instrument panel on the co-pilot's side was lifted.

What makes Feng Jing even more frightened is that Xia Ruofei is actually flying the plane now!

When did this guy learn to fly a plane? Also, are there no pilots on the plane? Feng Jing suddenly felt as if the whole world had collapsed...

Xia Ruofei focused on driving the plane to descend, and he didn't have time to talk to Feng Jing too much, just turned around and shouted: "Sit down in the seat behind me and fasten your seat belt! Captain, you help her put on the oxygen mask. !"

The seat behind him is the closest to him. Once the plane loses control and is about to crash, Xia Ruofei only needs a thought to take Feng Jing into the spiritual space.

With a confused expression on her face, Feng Jing sat down on the seat behind Xia Ruofei, fastened her seat belt with the help of the flight attendant Gu Li, and put on an oxygen mask.

The plane was rapidly descending in a dive attitude while whistling. Although the thrust has been reduced, the airspace is still increasing. The whole plane is shaking, as if it may disintegrate at any time.

The altitude displayed by the altimeter is also falling rapidly, and the oxygen content in the cabin is naturally rising.

When the altimeter indicated 10,000 feet, or about 3,000 meters, Captain Brooke finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he shouted: "Xia! Try to maintain this altitude now! Lower the degree appropriately!"

"Okay!" Xia Ruofei said.

He controlled the joystick with all his attention, and slowly adjusted the aircraft's attitude to level flight. At the same time, according to Brooke's suggestion, he continued to close the accelerator a little bit, and the air that had been increasing due to the dive just now began to slowly descend.

After the temperature dropped, the air flow in the hole formed by the burst of the windshield was naturally less violent, and the noise in the cockpit was also reduced.

At this time, Brooke was basically able to determine that the plane and passengers were temporarily safe.

Only then did he try to contact the ground and determine the position of his plane.

Because many instruments on the co-pilot side were damaged in the explosive loss of pressure, Brooke could not now determine the position of the aircraft through the GPS, but he knew that the aircraft had yawed from the beginning to the emergency lower altitude at the back, and the ground was empty. Guan must have noticed the anomaly, so he called directly on the civil aviation emergency frequency, there should be no problem.

Brooke called through the emergency frequency: "may day! may day! may day! qf1o8 flight! qf1o8 flight! We have encountered a hijacking incident, the aircraft is currently damaged, and the cabin is depressurized explosively! Request ground radar help!"

Brook first declared the flight emergency with three consecutive "may days", then clearly reported the flight number, and briefly reported the situation.

He was also a little worried about the damage to the communication system, but fortunately, a response came quickly from the earphones. Although he could not hear clearly in the loud noise, and the sound was intermittent, the communication was not interrupted, which made Brook feel at ease. few.

"qf1o8, report your altitude and degree!" The air traffic control's voice, loud and quiet, reached Brooke's ears from time to time.

Brook quickly glanced at the altimeter and empty meter that were still working normally in front of him, reported the current altitude to the air traffic controller, and then asked, "We applied for the nearest airport for forced landing. Where are we now?"

Due to the very loud noise in the cockpit and the fact that the air-to-ground communication function seemed to be affected, it was a little intermittent, so Captain Brooke only vaguely heard a few words, but did not get any useful information.

He had to say: "I didn't hear it clearly here, please repeat it! qf1o8!"

The controller repeated it again, but Brooke still couldn't hear clearly, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Xia Ruofei is also wearing headphones. His hearing is much stronger than that of Brook, and he can basically hear what the controller said.

So Xia Ruofei turned his head and said loudly: "Captain Brook, I heard the other party in the earphone say that we are in the Oakland Intelligence Region. Now we have two options, one is to fly to Japan, and the other is to fly to Japan. Saipan, the distance is almost the same, the controller said let us make our own judgments!"

Captain Brook often flies this route, and he can roughly judge the position of the plane as soon as he hears it. Of course, since Wilkins deliberately made the plane deviate from the route, Brook's judgment may not be very accurate, just a rough area. .

Fortunately, there is ground radar guidance, and the plane will not lose its course in the vast sea.

Captain Brooke thought about it quickly, and finally, considering that Qantas has a base at Saipan Airport, it may be relatively convenient for ground coordination, and he is relatively familiar with Saipan Airport, so he quickly made a decision.

"We decided to make an emergency landing on Saipan! qf1o8." Captain Brooke said decisively, "Please provide us with radar guidance! In addition, due to the loss of cabin pressure, we applied to maintain an altitude of 10,000 feet!"

Xia Ruofei heard intermittent voices in the earphones: "qf1o8, agree to keep 10,000 feet, I will guide you back to the route to Saipan, please turn left to 15o!"

Xia Ruofei saw that Brook was trying to press the earphone with a confused look, and knew that he must still not hear what the other party was saying, so he played the role of a microphone again and repeated the controller's words.

"Please confirm the order, allow to keep 10,000

feet, turn left heading 15o! qf1o8! ' Brook repeated the controller's instructions.

"The retelling is correct!" said the controller.

"Understood, qf1o8!" This time the instruction was brief, and Brook responded quickly.

Then he began to guide Xia Ruofei, teaching him to use the steering stick and rudder to make the plane start to turn.

The turning of the aircraft seems simple, that is, pedaling the rudder or turning the steering stick. Both methods can make the aircraft turn, but in fact, if only the steering stick is used to control the ailerons to turn the aircraft, the aircraft will tilt, but the nose will be tilted. The direction of the car did not actually turn around, and the entire turning process was very slow and the resistance was particularly large.

However, if only the rudder is used to control, the nose suddenly turns without the fuselage tilting, the direction of the airflow on the wing changes drastically, the lift decreases, and the fuselage force increases, which will cause the aircraft to quickly drop in height.

The correct way is naturally to cooperate with the steering stick and the rudder, so that the aircraft is tilted and the nose is turned. Only in this way can the aircraft draw a perfect curve in the air that is smooth and round and the height will not change.

However, this may already be an instinctive action for an old pilot, but it is very difficult for a pure rookie like Xia Ruofei.

So after Brook told Xia Ruofei how to turn, he didn't have any hope for Xia Ruofei's operation. He didn't expect stability and perfection at all, as long as he could turn around.

Xia Ruofei was really in a hurry at the beginning, either because the rudder pedals were too much, and the steering rod did not cooperate well, or the steering rod was turned, but the rudder did not keep up, and the height of the plane also suddenly went up and down during the turn. down.

However, Xia Ruofei, who has practiced "The Great Way", has a strong learning ability, especially this kind of project that requires high physical coordination, he mastered it very quickly.

After a while, Xia Ruofei had already figured out the doorway. During the next turn, the fuselage of the aircraft tilted slightly to the left, and the nose also turned to the left. The aircraft drew an arc in the air, and the altimeter would remain at the same level during the entire process. on a number.

Brook couldn't help but be a little stunned, this learning talent is too strong! This simple turning action may not be so perfect even if a pilot student has to practice for several hours, but Xia Ruofei flew out of the freehand feeling of an old pilot in just one or two minutes.

If it weren't for Xia Ruofei's previous performance, he was indeed a pure novice, and he knew almost nothing about jet airliners. Brook would even think that Xia Ruofei was joking before, this is simply a skilled pilot!

Brooke quickly recovered from the shock, because the heading had reached 14o, he said quickly: "Xia! Now start slowly leveling the plane!"

In fact, there is no need for Brooke's reminder, Xia Ruofei has slowly reduced the turning slope - the controller asked to turn to heading 15o, he certainly can't wait until heading 15o to operate, the aircraft also needs a response time from turning attitude to direct flight , will definitely turn his head by then.

If the autopilot controls the aircraft, the whole process must be quite smooth and precise. When the heading is 15o, the aircraft will just become a straight flight attitude, and the people who take the aircraft will not feel too big or too sudden changes.

But if it is manually operated by the pilot, it is naturally not as precise as the computer control, and there will be some left and right adjustments more or less.

However, Xia Ruofei's turning operation seemed to be controlled by the autopilot. When the heading just came to 15o, the aircraft attitude just flattened completely and started to fly straight towards this heading.

Brooke was even more surprised, he would rather believe it was a blind cat meeting a dead mouse - otherwise, a rookie who had only been exposed to transport helicopters before flying a jumbo jet for the first time can do it to this extent , it's really creepy.

Brook thinks that even if he wasn't injured, he would have been able to fly the plane himself, roughly so far.

The next voyage was to fly under the guidance of air traffic control. During the period, two air control areas were also switched. The air traffic control along the way placed the plane that declared an emergency state in the first sequence, and emptied the airspace early. The route is unobstructed.

Brooke has also made contact with Qantas' Saipan base.

When the flight deviates from the route from the radar, Qantas received the news for the first time. It can be said that the hearts of the company are all hanging, and now they are finally in contact. Although the plane was damaged, there were no casualties among passengers. It can be said to be a fortune in misfortune.

Qantas also acted quickly, coordinating the airport, customs, inspection and quarantine and hospitals in Saipan.

Saipan Airport also transferred other planes early to clear the airspace for the qf1o8 flight.

During the entire flight process, Brook finally had to admit that Xia Ruofei may be a flying genius. He can be said to have learned the manual control of the aircraft from scratch, but the speed of getting started is simply astonishing. Every turn and height adjustment of the aircraft, You can almost see Xia Ruofei's progress.

As the plane approached Saipan Airport, an area was also designated on the ground for the plane to discharge fuel - the flight was bound for Australia, and now the voyage is not more than halfway, there is still a lot of aviation fuel in the fuel tank, if it weighs 6 directly Too heavy and the aircraft's landing gear and structure can be damaged.

In particular, the person who actually controls the plane is a rookie who has never received one minute of Airbus flight training. It is even more dangerous to focus on 6.

Fortunately, there is an experienced captain, Brook, on the plane. Although he cannot control the plane because of his arm injury, he can undertake the task of air-ground communication and can give Xia Ruofei guidance at any time.

Therefore, the entire fuel discharge process was also very smooth. After calculation, Captain Brooke decided to discharge 10 tons of aviation fuel - this number is less than the theoretical figure, because considering that Xia Ruofei had no flying experience at all, Captain Brooke did not dare to hope A successful landing.

Since the plan to go back to flight is to be made, it is natural to reserve some more jet fuel.

Soon, the aircraft gradually descended under the command of air traffic control. This time, the standard approach procedure was not implemented, because the ground already knew the current situation of the aircraft, and other flights had been moved to circle in different airspaces, so Naturally everything is simple.

Under the constant reminder and guidance of Captain Brooke, Xia Ruofei controlled the plane and gradually approached Saipan Airport, and Brooke's heart was raised, and it was finally time to test whether Xia Ruofei was a real flying genius...
