Chapter 478: Night Exam
When examiner Fendi Higgins said that he should hurry up and study on the computer at night in the evening, Zheng Xudong raised his hand and said that he wanted to ask for leave, because he had made an appointment with Sergei Mashkov, the second son of the Russian gangster, to participate in the gambling competition between Japan and Russia in New York tonight. If it was very casual to participate or not before, the high cost of today's private jet made Zheng Xudong determined to participate in tonight's gambling game, which is a billion dollars beckoning to him! It can almost be said that it is the largest gambling game in the world!
But Fendi Higgins angrily threw the marker pen in his hand on the podium and said indignantly: "If you are not a VIP customer of Boeing, you will never want to get a flying license in my hand for the rest of your life." Hmph!"
Zheng Xudong hurriedly stepped forward and leaned on Fendi Higgins' ear and said, "Examiner, if I have a chance to make $100 million and take your night exam tonight, let you choose which one you will choose?" Zheng Xudong was afraid of scaring her, so he made ten times the bet on the novel.
"Of course, it's to make 100 million dollars, and with 100 million dollars, who can get a pilot's license, just hire a pilot. After finishing speaking, she looked at Zheng Xudong with a look of disbelief, and then she looked at Zheng Xudong with greedy eyes and said, "You won't lie to me, what kind of money is so easy to make?"
Since there were only two of them in this classroom, Zheng Xudong whispered in her ear: "It's a big gambling game, in New York." The chips are 100 million, and the two sides bet against each other, and the winner takes all of them. ”
Fendi Higgins was a little upset by the hot air spewing from Zheng Xudong's mouth, pushed him out with his hand, and said coquettishly: "What's wrong! There is no one else in this room so close to me, what are you doing?
Zheng Xudong smiled and took out the black card from UBS for his senior VIP customer from his pocket and handed it to her.
Fendi Higgins has seen the world, after all, the group she serves are rich people, how can no rich people afford to buy private jets! So she knows this black card, which is less than Citibank's Amex Centurion black card, and the funds are not more than 100 million, or even more than 1 billion are not eligible to receive this card, after taking the card, she carefully felt the luxurious feeling that the card brought to her with her hand, "It's a pity that it's not mine, how nice it would be if it was mine!" She was a little reluctant to return the card to Zheng Xudong.
Zheng Xudong also saw greed in her eyes, and took out $50,000 in cash from his pocket (space), he was going to pay $100,000, but he really couldn't tell, how do you put $100,000 in a flat casual suit? He handed $50,000 into Fendi Higgins's hands.
"What are you doing?" Fendi Higgins, although holding the money in his hand, still looked around and saw that there was no "child lying on the window" so he didn't push the money back.
"Examiner Higgins, I'm paying you tuition! I've heard that senior coaches like you are expensive. I'll give you this little money, and I'll take advantage of you! Don't be angry!" Zheng Xudong said with a flattering face, living like a contractor when he offered bribes.
"Your tuition is paid by Boeing. And the next time you call me Fendi, my friends call me that. As he spoke, he stuffed the money into his own Chanel bag under the podium.
Zheng Xudong thought to himself that I had been calling you Higgins Examiner all day, and I didn't hear you ask me to call you Fendi, so I could change my mind immediately after giving the money. The ancestor is right, money can make ghosts grind, and today it is still a female ghost who grinds!
"Examiner Fendi, since you said that I have to participate in night training, then I will fly that Boeing BBJ medium airliner to New York in a moment, and you can sit next to you as an examiner. Isn't there a night exam, and there is a transition, let's stop in between. You spend the night in New York tonight, and I'll fly back tomorrow morning with it. What do you think?" Zheng Xudong said to her.
When Fendi Higgins heard it, the idea was indeed good, "I have taken the exam, and I will not delay his business." Thinking of this, he said, "Okay, can you inform your crew to start contacting the route, make preparations before takeoff, and tell them that our route is to fly to Atlanta, the capital of Georgia, and then to Atlanta Airport for refueling, and then to New York." Let's get ready, we'll leave in an hour. ”
"Can you apply for an hour-long route?" asked Zheng Xudong with some uncertainty in his heart.
"This is Boeing, OK?! We have priority access to the route. With that pride on his face, Fendy Higgins walked out of the classroom.
Sure enough, it didn't take an hour, and the route and the preparations before departure were ready.
Zheng Xudong sat in the captain's seat in the cockpit, Fendi Higgins sat in the co-pilot's seat, and the original captain and co-pilot chatted with the two beautiful flight attendants in the cabin.
Some passengers who take civil aircraft always complain about why they don't take off when they get on the plane, Zheng Xudong learned to fly the plane only after learning to fly the plane, the captain and the co-pilot have boarded the plane before the passengers board, and then have to make preparations before take-off, to put it bluntly, it is to check the parameters of the aircraft, set the route, check the fuel, etc., these parameters have a total of more than 170 (more than 170 items of inspection The author is to listen to others, it may not be accurate, but at least more than 130 items must be checked, this is accurate!) Zheng Xudong has a folder in his hand at this time, there is a piece of paper written on the parameters to be checked, he reads a item here, Fendi Higgins recounted the items that Zheng Xudong just said to be checked loudly with his mouth, and then checked and verified an item at the aircraft instrument, and then typed a "✔" at the form in his hand, this kind of inspection of the skilled captain and co-pilot will also take at least twenty minutes, and it will not work if one is wrong, if it is missed, sorry, start over. Someone said, anyway, there are only two people in the cockpit, who knows if the inspection is not checked! Here we are going to talk about the black box of the plane.
The black box is actually a flight data recorder, it is bright yellow or orange red, very eye-catching, why not call it a yellow box, because it was indeed in a black box at the beginning of the invention, but it is not easy to find when the plane crashes, so later people designed it to be bright yellow, but people still call it a black box. Its function is to record the aircraft's altitude, speed, heading, climb rate, descent rate, acceleration, fuel consumption, landing gear release, Greenwich Mean Time, as well as aircraft system working conditions and engine working parameters and other flight parameters. The other is the cockpit voice recorder. It is actually a radio call recorder that can record all kinds of calls on the plane. The four audio tracks on this instrument record the conversation between the pilot and the ground command organization, the conversation between the chief and co-pilot, the speech of the captain and the stewardess to the passengers, threats, explosions, abnormal engine sounds, and various sounds in the cockpit. The black box provides investigators with information about the operation of the aircraft's systems prior to the accident.
This is why the captain and the co-pilot do not dare to conceal the reasons for the lack of inspection items, if the plane crashes, the black box records the captain, the co-pilot's call recording, you actually missed the item in the inspection before the plane takes off, you say that you do not bear the responsibility for the crash, this is a joke!
Zheng Xudong's head can memorize more than 170 items of inspection without looking at the table, Fendi Higgins didn't believe it at first, but after checking it, he found that there were no missing items on his form, he glanced at him with the eyes of a monster, and then said sourly: "Actually, you don't need to memorize this, there is a ready-made form to refer to the inspection." No captain or co-pilot can carry them off now. ”
"I didn't memorize it, I read it in class and wrote it down. Or you teach well!" Zheng Xudong said confidently.
But the only thing that could respond to him was two words, "Monster!"
After these parameters are checked, Zheng Xudong can apply to the tower to take off, and the tower will arrange a runway for your plane to take off. Without an order from the tower, the plane could not move.
Boeing's own airport is not large, with only two runways, and the tower told them five minutes later that they could take off with runway two.
Zheng Xudong pointed the plane at the yellow solid line in the middle of the No. 2 runway, everyone knows that you can't press the line when driving, but you can fly the plane on the contrary, you don't have to press the line, whether it is taking off or landing. Release the brake pedal, push the throttle and start afterburner, sweep the instrument panel on the plane with the residual vision, look at the speed, and when the speed reaches about 135 nautical miles (1 nautical mile = 1.852 kilometers for the aircraft instrument), he starts to pull the control stick to let the nose of the aircraft lift and take off.
At this time, the nose of the aircraft is raised at an angle of 12 degrees (the flight angle of civil aircraft is usually between 10-15 degrees, depending on the parameters of the respective aircraft), Zheng Xudong knows that the best take-off angle of his BBJ is 12 degrees.
After the plane left the ground, Zheng Xudong immediately drove the afterburner and pulled the control stick to climb at a large angle, and the plane was already at an angle of 60 degrees to the ground.
The two pilots and stewardess sitting in the cabin were frightened, and the captain said, "Is he using this plane as a fighter jet?" The co-pilot said: "I know that the boss must have flown an airplane before, and you have forgotten the time he flew the Airbus A380." I'm not worried about whether he will be able to do it, I am now worried about whether this plane will work or not, can this plane withstand such a large angle of climbing?"
At this time, Fendi Higgins, who was in the cockpit, said in horror: "What are you going to do? You are driving dangerously, hurry up and put the plane in a correct position for me." Otherwise, I won't give you a pilot's license. ”
Zheng Xugong was frightened when he saw Fendi Higgins's face, and he didn't have the heart to joke, so he quickly adjusted the flight attitude of the plane back to a normal state, and then said: "I just want to feel the fun of extreme take-off! This is not a civil aircraft, what are you afraid of?"
"You're driving dangerously! It's too dangerous! It's easy to get into an accident, only a pilot who has flown a fighter plane can do it!" After saying that, Fendi Higgins turned his head to look at Zheng Xudong and said, "Have you ever flown a fighter plane?"
