Artificial rainfall?

Forced landing?

What's the situation?

A group of foreign reporters only felt that their heads were a little insufficient, and they could not digest the officer's words at all, wasn't the An-26 just now forced to return because of the weather, and what kind of plane did the Chinese use to make artificial rain? Forced landing on this bare mountain? Not to mention the distance of several hundred meters, the ground is still potholed, how to land?

The foreign reporters asked one question after another, and their minds were almost covered with question marks, but at this time they could not be allowed to think through them one by one, because even if the officers and soldiers on duty who were cleaning up the scene did not drive them away, the rain that had gradually begun to grow heavier would not be able for them to bear.

They quickly left the clearing and ran towards their respective storage points in the woods, where they had the necessary items for their field interviews, including raincoats and waterproof covers for their cameras.

At this moment, there was a clear roar of engines in the sound of the rain, and the foreign reporters who were walking towards their respective material storage points were stunned for a moment, and then realized something, and stopped and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Soon, an upboard monoplane propeller broke through the rain curtain and pounced on the hill where the reporters had just left.

"Not good~~ The plane is out of control. ”

I don't know who shouted, but a bunch of foreign reporters immediately reacted, and then they drilled into the woods like a local chicken chased by a mad dog in a chicken farm.

It's no wonder that these people look like this, it is really the plane that fell staggering, flickering east and west, like a drunk strong man, playing and falling straight down, this look is the rhythm of forced landing.

As a result, the situation was not well estimated, and it was uncontrolled by a few cross-cutting winds.

It's okay if you plant headlong on a deserted hillside, but if you really get stuck in their crowd and accidentally kill one or two, they won't die?

Don't look at them picking up the pen one by one and looking fearless, as if they are really uncrowned kings, they can spray whoever they want, and when it comes to life-threatening, they regard their lives as more precious than anyone else.

Marcelo and Merklein are among the few people who still stand still, especially Marcelo, who knows the performance of airplanes better than other journalists, as an aeronautical engineer who has worked for Dassault and Airbus.

Not to mention the Y-6 transport plane that he had ridden and rescued him and Merklein from the sea of suffering.

"Your Leica camera is fine, right?"

Seeing that the Yun6 had shaken the fuselage and gradually found its balance, Marcelo asked Merkle beside him, and Merkle nodded: "Don't worry, my Leica camera is a high-end custom model with waterproof function." ”

"That's good!" Marcelo wiped the rain from his face: "Since we were all scared away, then we will accept this big news unceremoniously, prepare, and the plane will come down." ”

As he spoke, the Yun 6 suddenly fell, and the fixed landing gear suddenly plunged into the ground, even though it was bounced up by the potholes, and the shock absorption system on the landing gear contracted rapidly, removing most of the rebound force, but it still made the plane tremble violently, and almost kept the balance and fell headlong, but in the end it was stable and landed again.

In this way, the Yun 6 jumped several times on the potholed grass like a large ball, and the thick landing gear tires finally grasped the ground steadily, and then I saw the white smoke from the brake device of the landing gear because of the stagnation, coupled with the effect of other deceleration devices, so that the Yun 6 finally stopped a second before rushing into the woods.

"Oh my God, it's a miracle. ”

When Mekran, who was still taking pictures, saw this scene, he forgot to press the shutter of the camera, looked at the stopped Yun-6 in disbelief, and exclaimed uncontrollably.

Marcelo on the side nodded very approvingly: "It is indeed a miracle, under such meteorological conditions, it is indeed a miracle to achieve such a perfect forced landing on such a terrain, of course, this also shows that China's Y-6, or Plateau Eagle C, has unparalleled low-altitude, low-speed and short-distance take-off and landing performance." ”

"It turns out that your vision is good!" Merklein pressed the shutter a few times, then responded with a smile, and then his face turned dark, and he said a little gloomily: "It's a pity that the competition in the small aircraft market in Europe and the United States is too fierce, and we don't have similar experience, so if we really want to represent the Plateau Eagle series, it is estimated that it will be very difficult." ”

"No~~ my dear Merklene. Marcelo shook his head hopefully: "I have changed my mind now, and I believe that this idea will allow us to achieve all our goals in life." ”

"Oh? what is it?" Merklein asked curiously, and Marcelo was just about to answer, when he heard a roar from the stopped Y-6: "Comrade, do you have a radio station over there, if so, please report to the command, my plane is out of fuel, it is best to get replenishment soon, by the way, if you have dry food, give a few pieces, after flying more than 2,000 kilometers, I will already be hungry......"

His voice was intermittent by the wind and rain, but Marcelo, who knew some Chinese, opened his mouth so wide in surprise that he didn't even react to the rain falling in.

He is not just watching the lively Xiaobai, but a senior aeronautical engineer, so through what he said just now, he roughly understood how this heavy rain came, not prepared by the disaster relief command in advance, but a temporary decision.

If it is arranged, it is good to say, everything goes according to the plan, but sudden temporary things are not something that can be done well if you want to do it well, and there are so many accidents and variables that ordinary people can control at all.

If nothing else, the disaster relief headquarters must have a precise grasp of the weather, otherwise how can we predict the arrival of strong winds, and how can we judge that the low-pressure clouds accompanied by strong winds are suitable for artificial rainfall?

You must know that artificial rainfall has very high requirements for meteorological conditions, and even requires extreme precision in the grasp of timing, because the suitable window period may be only ten minutes, and God will never give anyone face.

In addition, air-to-ground communications, air-to-air communications, and communication between the headquarters and various disaster relief nodes must also be accurate and fast, otherwise it will be the same even if the weather forecast cannot be transmitted.

Ad-hoc decisions, rapid transmission, intelligence sharing, and efficient deployment.

All this shows that China is not as blind as imagined in this disaster relief, and there is a set of invisible and intangible systems behind it, but I don't know what is the core of this system, satellites, or other new technologies that subvert cognition?

"I think we still underestimate the technological power that the Chinese have invested in this disaster relief, although I don't know what this technological power is, but it is definitely a completely new system that is disruptive." ”

Marcelo sighed in disbelief, and then turned his head to see Mekran, who had been wet from the rain and looked at him with a puzzled face, and was just about to explain what he had just said, when he heard Clark's pig-like howl from the woods behind him: "Ah~~~My thigh~~~"
