Chapter 287 Highway 4 Is Waiting for You in the Wind and Snow
The sky is gray and the mood is bitter.
The large areas of loess on both sides of Highway 4 were covered with thin snow, and the temperature was minus 13 degrees, which was considered warm compared to the minus 30 degrees where water dripped and turned into ice at night.
There are obviously snowplows working day and night to maintain Highway 4, otherwise the black asphalt paved road would never be clearly visible.
Li Zhan came from the south side of Highway 4, estimated the relationship between the distance and the turning radius, and tried to turn the stick to the left as gently as possible, just like a passenger plane flying on the final flight aiming at the runway after completing the last turn.
The RPM of the right engine continues to decrease.
"The speed of the right engine has dropped, and the power has declined. Tower, I'm aiming at Highway 4. Prepare for an emergency landing. It's over." Li Zhan reported calmly.
Xue Xiangdong said, "Good luck, the emergency team is already on the way. The air transport part is expected to arrive in one hour, and the ground team is expected to arrive in four hours. It's over."
"Tower, use the satellite phone to contact us after landing. Over." Li Zhan brought a satellite phone. Generally, he would carry two things with him during live-fire training, one is a satellite phone and the other is a portable GPS navigator.
Xue Xiangdong replied, "The tower understands, it's over!"
A heavily modified Wrangler broke down on the road. Three young people, two men and one woman, were sitting in the car, shivering in cold-weather clothing.
"They say don't be impulsive if you insist on crossing no man's land. Now, if you don't freeze to death, you will starve to death." The young man wearing a thick winter hat named Jiang Hai was sitting in the passenger seat and scolded the young man sitting in the driver's seat. Hao.
Ma Hao patted the steering wheel, raised his chin and said, "What are we doing here? Isn't it just adventure? Let others decide on your own path. That's what you said."
Jiang Hai adjusted his glasses and said, "That's just a metaphor. It expresses that being a human being requires a kind of self-persistence on things and not to be affected by other people's opinions..."
"So I stick to myself." Ma Hao spread his fingers and pointed at the road ahead, which was completely white.
Jiang Hai wanted to continue arguing but found that he had fallen into the hole he had dug, and hesitated to speak.
"When will the rescue team arrive?" Misu asked.
The girl in the back row, Mi Su, wrapped herself up so tightly that her face could not be seen clearly, but she could see her beautiful big eyes. At this time, there was a calmness in her eyes that the other two men did not have.
"No matter how fast it is, it will still take three hours. If the road is blocked by heavy snow, we don't know." Ma Hao spread his hands and said.
Misu opened the door and got out of the car.
"Susu, what are you doing? It's so cold outside." Ma Hao said.
Mi Su said, "Which of you farted?"
Shut the car door with a bang.
Ma Hao stared at Jiang Hai, who put his right hand on the edge of the car window and pretended to enjoy the snow scene.
"Teacher Jiang, did you eat a dead rat last night?" Ma Hao was about to get out of the car.
Jiang Hai quickly pulled him, "Wait a minute, let's discuss it. What if the rescue team can't come?"
"No, if it doesn't work, just call the police. The police will always come." Ma Hao said while holding his breath.
After getting out of the car, Mi Su felt the severe cold outside and looked around at the vast whiteness, but vaguely heard strange sounds in her ears. She looked left and right, unable to distinguish the direction of the strange sound from the messy wind. Suddenly the wind became stronger, reaching a level of seven meters per second. It swept over with snowflakes, and the cold-proof clothes became wet in a short time.
The strange sound became louder and louder, like a huge object pressing down from the sky on the ground, or like a heavy-loaded train passing by. It was very dull and heart-stopping.
Misu couldn't restrain her curiosity and continued to search, but the visibility suddenly became very low. She couldn't clearly see the scene a hundred meters away. However, at this time, she already knew the direction of the sound source - directly behind the vehicle. . She looked over with wide eyes. Without any mental preparation, a huge aircraft suddenly flew past along the road from a dozen meters above her head. The huge roar almost made Misuna wear ear protection. My ears can't bear it!
Li Zhan in the sky was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. He was supposed to let the rear landing gear land, but he vaguely saw what seemed to be a vehicle in front of him. He was so excited that he pulled a lever, delaying the landing time. The fighter plane's rear landing gear almost flew over the roof of the car.
At this moment, the wind suddenly increased and the fighter plane shook violently. The left and right wings kept swinging up and down, and the tilt angle of the fuselage once reached 35%!
Li Zhan already felt strongly that the fighter plane was losing control of the fighter plane.
You must try your best to land!
He released the parachute without hesitation.
The opened parachute brought a sudden backward pull. The fighter's speed obviously paused, and there was a brief stabilization. Li Zhan seized this fleeting opportunity and pressed down the stick with a large amplitude. At such a height, the butt of the fighter plane is almost facing the road.
Just before the butt of the fighter plane hit the road, the deceleration chute reached the breakaway tension, and the breakaway device disconnected from the tail cone of the fighter plane. Li Zhan quickly changed the flap status, and the fighter plane's descent rate was instantly buffered. The rear landing gear that almost hit the road was significantly relieved. The fighter plane slowly moved forward along the road, a long and gentle downhill slope.
Li Zhan watched helplessly as the right engine's speed dropped to the bottom, and then completed the last landing maneuver.
The rear landing gear touched the ground, crushing the thin snow on the road and raising waves of snow and fog. No. 01 SU-27SK kept its feet on the ground and continued to slide forward for a long distance. Only then did Li Zhan let the front The landing gear landed, and the fighter plane slowly stopped amidst the chaos of various warning sounds.
Li Zhan actually completed a dangerous emergency landing more beautifully and smoothly than an ordinary landing. However, he was in an environment where he knew nothing about any data and relied entirely on guesswork.
Is he willing to do it so smoothly? What is the purpose of trying every means to land smoothly on the road in such bad wind and snow weather? Couldn't he land a little rougher? After all, it is an emergency landing in the wild. Why do you do it so beautifully?
It must be done.
Don’t forget that there are two PL-8D combat missiles in combat status on the pylon! There is no telling when the hundreds of rounds of shells in the cannon magazine will be fired out on their own!
If there was a slight bump, even if the landing gear tires hit the ground with just a little force, Li Zhan would be sent to the sky by his own ammunition!
Mi Su outside the car and Ma Hao and Jiang Hai in the car stared dumbfoundedly at a huge fighter jet flying like a lone boat in the sea at ultra-low altitude, and then landed steadily on the road with a parachute. The engine on the left There are still sparks coming out suddenly...
They were all dumbfounded. Is this a rescue team?
After the fighter plane came to a complete stop, Li Zhan opened the canopy and quickly shut down all systems and cut off the power supply. After reporting to the tower, he activated the pilot's emergency locating device. The troops would determine the specific location based on the signals continuously sent out by the locating device he carried. Location.
After disconnecting the radio connection and the oxygen supply system, Li Zhan jumped directly from the cockpit. When he landed, his right foot stuttered on the uneven road. He fell to the ground and rolled a few times. He was in pain. Grinning.
"Tower, I'm injured, it's over." Li Zhan just lay on the road and took out his satellite phone to contact the tower to report seriously.
The tower suddenly went crazy with nervousness. Although Li Zhan had encountered so many dangerous situations, he had never been injured. He also did a lot of live-fire training. Last time, the J-7EGG No. 037 was injured and Li Zhan didn't even scratch his skin. Break a little. Everyone knew that the No. 01 SU-27SK was in combat status but did not have a combat missile that left its pylon. They thought the missile triggered an explosion when it landed!
Is the myth of good luck about to be shattered?
Xue Xiangdong asked quickly, "How is the situation? Where is the injury?"
"I landed smoothly, but my right foot sprained when I got off the plane. It's over." Li Zhan said.
"Fuck you!" Xue Xiangdong cursed angrily.
Li Zhan smiled and said, "This is also a battle injury!"
"I'm afraid you don't need war injury allowance. Okay, hurry up and find a place to take shelter from the wind and snow. There is a stream of cold air reaching area 4. The blizzard will come soon. I'm afraid the emergency team won't arrive so quickly. Before that, you Stay away from the fighter plane as soon as possible and keep in touch!" Xue Xiangdong said seriously.
Li Zhan stopped joking and stood up quickly. The first thing he felt was the cold. He wore a flight leather jacket, winter flight pants and flight gear. These clothes could not withstand the severe cold of more than ten degrees below zero. First of all, we need to solve the problem of keeping out the cold, but we can’t be too far away from the fighter plane and we must be at a safe distance. SU-27SK No. 01 landed smoothly. Even if she was completely rotten, she was still the property of the Chinese Air Force.
Yes, that car I just saw.
Li Zhan walked pouting in the direction of the fighter plane's butt, looking for the red car parked on the road without looking back.
No. 01 SU-27SK: Hey, hey, hey, what about me? What should I do?
Mi Su ran forward, and the wind and snow rushed towards her face. She quickly put on her goggles, opened her eyes wide and observed as she ran forward.
Ma Hao and Jiang Hai also got out of the car and ran behind Mi Su.
Li Zhan saw someone running towards him, and he quickly shouted, "Don't come over! It's dangerous! Don't come over!"
Mi Su suddenly stopped. Ma Hao and Jiang Hai ran over and stopped beside her, staring blankly at a pilot walking over with difficulty.
"Go help!" Misu shouted.
Only then did Ma Hao and Jiang Hai come to their senses, and quickly ran over to pick up Li Zhan and run back. Li Zhan shouted, "Don't get close to the plane! It's dangerous!"
"I know, what do you do? Why did you bring the plane here?" Ma Hao asked.
Jiang Hai shouted, "Didn't you see? He is an air force pilot. The one just now was a fighter jet. It must have broken down before he landed on the road. There are many such examples in the history of world aviation. Sweden is a small country and their air force Fighters often use highways as take-off and landing sites and make full use of highways..."
"Teacher Jiang! Let's get back to the car and give the lecture again!" Ma Hao interrupted Jiang Hai.
"Okay, I'll give you some knowledge in this area later." Jiang Hai didn't know whether he couldn't hear the sarcasm or was pretending not to.
Li Zhan smiled wryly, what a weird thing this is!
