Chapter 163: Landing Gear
Zhou Zhengyi and Du Jiayi chatted for a while and then returned to their seats, after all, they will meet again at the Golden Elephant Awards soon, and there is no need to chat on the plane.
The special class naturally has the equipment of the special class, and the seat is very comfortable, and when Du Jiayi returned to the seat, he found that Ai Jinmeng next to him had fallen asleep reclining.
Since deciding to take charge of herself, Ai Jinmeng has become strong, working during the day and reading late at night.
Don't ask Du Jiayi how to know, they stayed together several times.
Although after the clouds and rain, Ai Jinmeng turned the book out and read it, which would make the atmosphere very strange, but after all, it was Du Jiayi who proposed it, so it was really hard to say anything.
Du Jiayi leaned over and used Ai Jinmeng as a human pillow, so that Ai Jinmeng could sleep more comfortably.
It was almost two and a half hours to fly from the magic capital to Xiangjiang, which was just the time to squint for a while.
When Du Jiayi woke up, he found that the plane was still hovering in the sky.
Looking down at my watch, it seemed to be more than three hours.
Du Jiayi was a little uneasy, looked up at the cabin, and seemed to be still so calm, and there was nothing abnormal.
But......
But where are the flight attendants?
Looking out from the cabin, I have already reached the land from the ocean, that is, not far from the airport. Xiangjiang is only a large area, and when you see the land, you basically have to go to the airport.
The captain was preparing to land, and when the plane reached 1,500 feet, he was about to open the landing gear, when he suddenly found that the indicator light of one of the landing gear was not on, which indicated that the device was not turned on, and the captain was shocked and immediately began to accelerate.
The landing gear did not open and landed hastily. It will only destroy the machine and kill people. The captain quickly pulled the plane up. If it continues to descend, the plane may not be able to get up.
The captain quickly contacted the flight control center on the ground: "Flight center, flight center, here is flight Y95864 ........."
The ground flight control center also found an anomaly in this aircraft: "Y95864, Y95864. What is the situation, what is the situation? ”
"Center. Center, the landing gear of the aircraft was not opened, it was not opened. ”
"Please fly over the control center."
The captain made a quick decision to let the plane fly smoothly over the control center so that the center staff could judge the condition of the aircraft.
The staff of the control center immediately activated the plan, and several people immediately used the equipment to start paying attention to the aircraft, and found that the landing gear was only slightly opened, and it was stuck. Control center personnel asked the captain to fly the plane back into the air and consume the excess fuel. The centre discussed whether to make a forced landing. Some aircraft are capable of throwing in reserve fuel, but the Airbus 737 is not able to do that.
The control center immediately gave the captain a hovering aviation area, and the technician on the plane went down to the cabin of the landing gear to check the landing gear, and after a while, he came up, and the fault that occurred could not be eliminated by one person immediately. The captain could only request a forced landing, and the control center agreed to the forced landing after considering all aspects, but the premise was that the 737 needed to consume the fuel in the tank. The fuel left over during the crash landing is a ticking time bomb.
At the same time, firefighters and medical personnel rushed to the airport. Prevent fires and casualties caused by aircraft landing failures. The plane's landing gear was faulty, and he had only one way out, and that was a forced landing! There is no other choice.
A forced landing of an airplane requires not only skill, but also a certain amount of luck.
This is particularly strict for the quality of the captain, but if any detail in the operation is negligent, the landing angle will be very different.
"Adjust to manual mode. Let the flight attendant keep you informed! ”
The captain calmly said to the co-pilot.
The plane began to land, and it was pulled up urgently, and some passengers already sensed that something was wrong, but no one thought in a bad direction.
Just then, the radio went off. The purser told everyone on the radio that there was a problem with the plane's landing gear and that the captain was in contact with the ground personnel to find out the cause of the failure.
Not everyone was unaware of the seriousness of the situation, and some passengers cried, but the vast majority remained calm.
The purser calmly comforted the passengers, saying, "This is not the first time this has happened, but even in the worst case, we will be safe." ”
The plane was running out of fuel in the air, and there was absolutely no problem during this time, and the few flight attendants began to comfort the emotionally uncontrolled passengers.
Ai Jinmeng didn't feel any danger, thinking that the landing gear was not opened just like the bump just now, it was just a trivial matter. After all, this kind of thing is usually only in movies, and when it appears in reality, it makes people feel unimaginable.
As the atmosphere in the cabin became more and more tense, the flight attendants were a little busy and did not come much, and the purser repeatedly emphasized on the radio, saying that this kind of malfunction had occurred before, calling on them to exercise restraint and calm, trying to stabilize their emotions.
Ai Jinmeng didn't know the consequences, so she was in a good mood, naively believing the purser's words, and thinking that she would be fine soon. As a traverser, Du Jiayi, a person who has died once, is inexplicably calm when he is really in danger.
After all, this is not something that can be controlled, Du Jiayi is not Superman, nor is he Iron Man, and he has no ability to change the condition of the plane. Since it can't be changed, Du Jiayi won't be too flustered, who knows if he will travel to another place after hanging up.
This can be regarded as a good psychological quality of the traverser!
Although Du Jiayi and Ai Jinmeng are not particularly flustered, the emotions of other people will inevitably affect the two of them, and they are not as relaxed as before.
In order to increase the weight of the rear of the aircraft and ensure that the head is raised as high as possible when landing, the flight attendant asked some passengers to change to seats at the back of the cabin, and all stateroom passengers were transferred to the rear cabin. The flight attendant explained to all the passengers what to expect, telling them that the rear wheels of the plane would land first, and it was normal for them to hear a loud rumble in the process.
All the personnel were arranged, and even all the flight attendants were seated in the rear cabin, and no one cared about the difference between the special class cabin and the ordinary cabin at this time. The only hope is to land safely, at this time, everyone is the same, no one can transcend ordinary people, whether it is ordinary people or the upper class, everyone is facing the same death.
Life is sometimes so funny, maybe some people are drunk and dream of death every day, and some people are always working hard for the next meal, but in the face of disaster, everyone is back on the same starting line. (To be continued.) )
