On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, it turned cloudy and snowy, and a strong wind blew near the ground at the Beijing City Airport. Since the early hours of the morning, most of the planes landing on the runway of the airport have been drifting, with three heavy landings and two go-arounds, and strong winds have affected the approach of passenger aircraft. Fortunately, when the weather brightened, the wind was lighter and the snow stopped.

Star Airlines Flight 9682 departed from Amsterdam and arrived at an altitude of 6,000 feet near Beijing Airport at 8:10 a.m. In the cockpit, the co-pilot Jiang Yi recited the approach command, turned his head after adjusting the parameters and said, "Senior sister, the wind is quite strong." ”

Zhong Yanyu looked out the window, heard that there was a flight in front of her that was going back to flight, and said to Jiang Yi: "You ask what type of aircraft the front plane is." ”

Jiang Yi confirmed with the ground the reason for the resumption of the flight of the previous aircraft. The approach informed that the previous flight was a narrow-body aircraft and could not return to flight because it could not land. The low load of the narrow-body aircraft is not stable enough to suppress the crosswind. Zhong Yanyu is flying a heavy passenger aircraft, which is currently eligible for landing. After approaching, the lower altitude is slowed down, and the wind speed is informed and the landing is confirmed. Jiang Yi recited the adjustment parameters, confirmed the approach checklist at Zhong Yanyu's request, and put the landing gear.

The runway was not far away, and Jiang Yi's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He remembered his "brilliant record" of landing and bouncing at Narita Airport last time, and his conditioned reflexes began to tense. Fortunately, he flew with Zhong Yanyu, otherwise he would definitely be asked to land with the instructor, and if he couldn't keep it, he would be scolded until he hit the Tianling Gai, and he was almost grounded when he bounced.

Zhong Yanyu took the side pole and confirmed the landing checklist according to the process. After Jiang Yi checked with her, she asked to disconnect the autopilot.

Jiang Yi cheered up his spirit, and the opportunity to learn real skills came.

If the aircraft is affected by a strong crosswind, it has higher requirements for the pilot's skills, and if it does not land well, it will rush out of the runway and cause an accident, and it will resume flying for the sake of safety. Jiang Yi wants to learn the technique of side-gliding with Zhong Yanyu. In fact, this is a necessary skill for pilots, and there is nothing more than the difference between sufficient experience and proficiency. Zhong Yanyu's manipulation is like her expression at this time, according to Jiang Yi's words, it is stable.

When approaching the ground, the whole fuselage is obliquely approaching the runway like a crab, and then slowly approaching the ground and turning to the side to slide into the field, with a more obvious shaking. Zhong Yanyu corrected the nose of the plane to align with the centerline of the runway, the landing gear was firmly grounded, she drove the thrust reverser to slow down, and the bump feeling was negligible. Jiang Yi couldn't help but sigh lightly, and said in his heart that if he wanted to have this proficiency, he would not be able to let go of the captain, and he would wake up laughing when he dreamed.

The plane turned to taxi, and docked at the covered bridge fifteen minutes later. Zhong Yanyu turned off the engine. Jiang Yi notified the cabin crew to unlock the hatch and confirmed the shutdown checklist at Zhong Yanyu's request. After this set of processes, today's flight work is basically over. When the passengers have all disembarked, the crew can go home from work for the Chinese New Year.

Jiang Yi gave a thumbs up to the left side of the air, and said with admiration: "The landing is absolutely stable." My sister is a cow. ”

"You're blowing a rainbow fart. Zhong Yanyu glanced at him to the right and disagreed: "Isn't it supposed to be stable?" ”

"Every time I fly with you, I am so steady, your expression is like flying for ten or twenty years, too free, not nervous at all. Jiang Yi had an expression of envy and couldn't learn.

Zhong Yanyu took out the small table, took off the headphones to fill in the list, and replied to his words: "Landing in a big crosswind is a necessary skill." You can't always have conditions that don't fall behind, isn't that looking for a draw? Besides, if I didn't show it on my face, I didn't feel nervous? There are hundreds of people sitting in the back. She wrote on the list, glanced at her watch by the way, and said, "Don't be nervous and blind in your head." ”

"Hey, I can't help it. Jiang Yi rubbed his face dejectedly, and remembered the moment when Narita was shocked, he couldn't help sighing, turned his head and said: "I fly a heavy aircraft, and the opportunity to practice take-off and landing is much less than that of a large aircraft. ”

"You run more in the shift room. Try the opportunity. Zhong Yanyu filled out the list, buckled the pen cap and looked at the watch, thinking that there were still a few hours before half past one in the afternoon, and added: "You fly with the instructor more, and you can't take off and land with me." ”

According to the regulations, the captain of the ordinary responsibility does not have the authority to hand over the take-off and landing to the co-pilot. The captain instructor can let the co-pilot take off and land under supervision, and if the conditions are not good during takeoff and landing, the instructor will take over the aircraft directly. Zhong Yanyu wanted to submit an application to take the test last year, but there was something at home that delayed the test and was temporarily put on hold.

Jiang Yi thought that he was unlucky, and he flew well on a large plane at the beginning of last year, but was modified and thrown on the side of a heavy aircraft. The probability of the co-pilot of a heavy machine being the captain is much lower than that of a large machine, and it is basically a large machine captain who modifies a heavy machine captain, such as Zhong Yanyu. Originally, Jiang Yi was under a lot of pressure to fly with the instructor, and the heavy aircraft flew more intercontinental long distances, so he was on pins and needles in the cockpit. If a co-pilot can't even take off and land, no matter which model he is on, it is far away if he wants to release the captain. He turned his head to observe Zhong Yanyu, and asked with a hint of hope: "Senior sister, when are you going to take the teacher exam? I seem to have heard that the above is willing for you to try it this year, is there a reason to make a promotional video?"

Zhong Yanyu put away the small table, took her mobile phone to send a message, and replied: "The other three airlines are all instructors, and the leaders asked me to submit my application after the New Year." She thought about it, felt a lot of pressure, put away her phone and sighed: "I hope I can pass smoothly." ”

"You're sure you'll be fine. Jiang Yite was happy and hummed a little song.

Zhong Yanyu saw his happy appearance with a side face, and said in a solemn voice: "If I get the instructor's endorsement, you will be a little lax in following me, and it will be useless for you to cry and call for senior sister at that time." I'll screw your ears off. ”

Jiang Yigang wanted to take a cup and drink saliva, but his hands trembled with fright. He shushed and said, "This ...... Is it so ruthless?"

"Is flying a joke?" Zhong Yanyu warned him with his eyes, turned to look at the covered bridge outside, and reminded: "Don't think that you can easily follow me, don't even think about it." ”

“...... I know. Jiang Yi sighed resignedly, it was useless to go through the back door from his senior sister. He drank saliva and saw his senior sister looking at her watch, and said with a smile: "You watched the time several times before landing, are you nervous?" It's a couple of hours until the afternoon shoot. ”

Zhong Yanyu was appointed as the pilot representative of Star Airlines, and at half past one in the afternoon, she will participate in the initial shooting of the promotional video in the alliance where Star Airlines is located, and will also be interviewed.

As the only female captain of Star Airlines, Zhong Yanyu has excellent flying skills and a good appearance. 1.75 meters tall and slender, with delicate and heroic facial features, especially her ultra-short hair with open ears, which is completely in line with the public's fantasy of pilots - both cool and stylish.

Jiang Yi was convinced that Zhong Yanyu was selected as the representative, and thought that Zhong Yanyu would definitely stand out and beat the captains of the other three airlines, and he was looking forward to the release of the promotional video. Zhong Yanyu muttered.

"You say, how can there be an interview in the promotional video. Zhong Yanyu took the water cup and opened it and shook it gently, then raised her eyebrows and said, "I spoke straight, which made me a little nervous." ”

Jiang Yile said loudly: "You didn't get nervous like this when you drove a hundred-ton plane on a big crosswind, don't you just interview a few sentences, as for it." ”

"I don't want to disgrace the company. Zhong Yanyu drank saliva to moisten her throat, and looked at the covered bridge again. There are also passengers disembarking outside.

"Come on, you can win if you sit there and don't speak. Jiang Yi said sourly, "Handsome and cool, you have all of them." I don't believe any other captain can compare to you. He unbuckled his belt and packed up his things, and sighed: "Senior sister, it's really not me who said, what kind of plane do you fly, how chic you are as a model, patting pictorial catwalks, and selling your beauty." ”

Zhong Yanyu was taking a mouthful of water, swallowed it so that it didn't squirt, turned his head to look at him and said, "Your skills can be compared to your sharp mouth, and you don't have to take the accelerator stick and overpower." ”

"......" Jiang Yi was injured internally, and suddenly drooped his head. The senior sister really spoke straight and did not deceive him.

After the passengers got off the plane, Zhong Yanyu and Jiang Yi put on their uniform jackets and went to the cabin to chat with a young captain. Intercontinental flights are generally equipped with three to four pilots, and Zhong Yanyu is the captain in charge of the flight, leading the flight. After the crew finished handling the cabin matters, the group took the crew car back to the base.

Zhong Yanyu went to the restaurant of the flight department to eat a bowl of hot noodles to cushion her stomach, and planned to go to the lounge to sleep for a while, but when she walked into the lounge, she heard Jiang Yi call herself, and turned around.

Jiang Yi carried two large bags of peach-flavored juice gummies, walked to the door of the lounge in two steps, and gave Zhong Yanyu a smile: "Senior sister, happy new year, see you in the new year." ”

Zhong Yanyu likes to eat peach-flavored candy the most, happily patted Jiang Yi's shoulder, took the candy and said, "You fly well next year and strive to make four bars as soon as possible." ”

"Borrow the words of my senior sister. Jiang Yi scratched his head and smiled, glanced left and right in the corridor, and suddenly stepped forward and said mysteriously: "I just heard from the girls in the planning department that the company invited a young documentary director with a background this time, and he is also a well-known vice president of the website, and he looks very good." Near the water, you can get the moon first, sister, you take advantage of the shooting to start quickly, don't miss the opportunity. "He has a very strong relationship with Zhong Yanyu before he said these words.

Zhong Yanyu raised her eyebrows to look at him, and said with disgust: "What are you doing, you are not serious." ”

"That's the right thing to do. Jiang Yi turned into an "old father"-like caring face, and followed the temptation: "Let's fly in the sky all day long, it's not easy to find a partner." You're twenty-nine years old this year, and you have to hold your hands in the palm of your hand when you meet a good one. Last time, Aunt Zhong asked me to help you keep an eye on it. He clenched his fists and looked full of ambition. "I asked the planning department for his photo, do you want to see ......" Before he finished speaking, he was pushed out of the door by Zhong Yanyu.

"Get up, I'm going to sleep. Zhong Yanyu closed the door with the candy, "You don't care about me yourself." ”

"I'm young and still a man, so I'm not in a hurry. You're different. Jiang Yi shook his phone on the door frame, "He's really good." The girls over there are all eyeing each other. Take a look first!"

Zhong Yanyu smiled brightly in the crack of the door, and said quietly: "If you shout again, believe it or not, I'll screw your ears off now." ”

Jiang Yi let go of his hand when he heard this, turned around and ran away without a trace.
