Chapter 265 Alternate Landing Highway
Donglingchang Station.
It was a sudden storm.
Originally, according to the forecast of the Meteorological Observatory, the Dongling station was not within the scope of the rainstorm, and although it would rain if it was affected, the rain was at most moderate and had the conditions for landing.
However, people are not as good as heaven.
Under the influence of the upper-air current, the trajectory of the storm was changed, and Dongling Station became the center of the storm.
Although the meteorological staff immediately saw the clues from the real-time meteorological cloud map and issued a reminder, it was too late in time, the dark clouds came too fast, and the sword squadron could not come back at all.
Hu Zhongming was still talking to Yang Luo, and Donglingchang Station suddenly went dark, as if it was not noon at this time, but evening.
A thick dark cloud rushed from the horizon, covering the sky like a huge cover, as if it was the end of the world, and it was as dark as if the sky was about to collapse.
In an instant, the Dongling Field Station was full of wind, and a series of white lightning tore through the sky, followed by a series of muffled thunder.
Lightning!
Immediately after that, the raindrops of beans fell from the sky, hitting the windows of the tower and blurring them in an instant.
In an instant, the raindrops were connected into a line, and with a bang, the heavy rain poured down from the sky as if the sky had collapsed, splashing countless splashes on the ground and thousands of waterfalls falling on the houses.
Summer days are the most unpredictable and unpredictable.
Hu Zhongming sat on the chair, looking at the crackling on the window glass, the dense bean raindrops, and finally converged into a piece and slid down the glass, and there was a trace of distraction.
Immediately, Hu Zhongming came back to his senses and was anxious.
For a distance of more than 100 kilometers, it only takes less than ten minutes to fly at cruising speed, but the meteorological staff has just reported that this rainstorm will last more than 20 minutes.
The bigger problem is that none of the five fighters returning from the CAT station will have enough fuel to burn for 20 minutes, and once the speed is reduced, the fuel consumption will be faster.
What to do?
Hu Zhongming kept asking himself in his heart.
Forced landing, or diversion?
But where to divert is the problem, there is no station within their flight, not even a civilian airport.
"Chief of Staff, do you have any ideas?" Hu Zhongming turned his head and asked the deputy commander on the side, Chief of Staff Yu Yangming.
Yu Yangming said with a solemn face, "It's too dangerous to force a landing, and it's not enough fuel to hover and wait, so let's make an alternate landing." ”
"If you make an alternate landing, only this east-west G117 highway is the most suitable, and the other roads are narrower than him." Hu Zhongming scratched the map, nodded and said.
"I agree to divert the G117 highway." Yu Yangming said solemnly, saying that he took the logbook and signed his name, which means that he will take responsibility together.
Although a long section of the G117 highway was built according to the specifications of the combat runway, it can be used as an emergency take-off and landing runway for fighters in wartime.
But after all, it is only a highway, not a runway, it cannot be as wide as a runway, it must be much narrower, and landing on a highway, without meteorological data and the command of the tower, there are still five fighters when it lands, and there is still a certain danger.
However, it is much less dangerous than forcing a landing in a station, and this is an option that cannot be used.
Since a decision was made, Hu Zhongming immediately ordered: "Chief of staff, immediately contact the local traffic police department, ask them to assist in traffic control of this highway, notify the maintenance and field service companies, and carry aviation fuel to reinforcements." Others pay attention and calculate the new route immediately. ”
"Yes." Yu Yangming replied, immediately picked up the landline phone, and began to contact the local traffic police department to ask for assistance.
"Understood."
In the tower, the crackling keyboard is more intensive, and everyone is buried in their posts.
Hu Zhongming picked up the intercom, pressed the call button and said, "Attention everyone, this is the tower, it is raining heavily in this field, and it does not have the conditions for landing." After research, it was decided that you need to make an alternate landing on the G117 highway and wait for the aviation fuel to be refilled, is there a problem? ”
"Report to the tower, 301 is fine." Yang Luo replied.
Landing on the highway is trivial for Yang Luo, and it is not the first time, and his experience can be said to be quite rich.
Hit the bird and made a forced landing, and the road where it landed was not a highway, just an ordinary provincial road, and at the beginning of the year, I participated in an inexplicable assessment, and landed twice in a row on the highway, and landed safely without danger.
Now again, what can be the problem?
"Report to the tower, 302 has no problem."
"311 is no problem."
"304 is fine."
"305 is fine."
The other four responded on the communication channel one after another, all confident enough in their technology.
When Hu Zhongming and Yu Yangming were discussing, Yang Luo instructed them to switch the communication frequency to the encrypted channel of the Donglingchang station tower.
"The G117 highway is ten kilometers ahead of you, east-west, and the relevant information and new routes have been transmitted to you." Hu Zhongming said, "The fuel supply truck will depart immediately, and wait patiently after landing, while paying attention to confidentiality." ”
"Understood." After Yang Luo checked the information transmitted by the data link, he said, "Tower, we are going to lower the altitude." ”
"The tower received, pay attention to safety."
"Understood."
The location of the G117 highway is actually familiar to several people, this is one of the alternate landing sites of the 122nd Regiment, and in addition to the major military stations and civil aviation airports, it ranks first.
The G117 highway is a two-way, six-lane highway with a width of 28 meters, and the section used as a combat runway is almost straight and flat, without any slope, and is capable of taking off and landing all the fighters and transport aircraft in active service of the aviation unit.
However, since the construction of this highway, there has never been a history of fighter planes landing.
"Attention to the aircraft, the formation is disbanded, the distance is widened, and the altitude and speed are ready to land." Yang Luo gave an order.
The distance of 10 kilometers is really close for a fighter that has reached cruising speed, and it only takes a few tens of seconds.
Therefore, five fighters in the air need to slow down.
"XXX understands."
The formation of the five planes was dispersed and the formation was no longer maintained.
Because this section of the highway built according to the specifications of the combat runway is in front of the left, the five fighters all turned left and dived down to altitude after opening up the distance between each other, and they all dived at a large angle, and they all opened the speed brakes to slow down.
It's really because the height is too high, the speed is too fast, and the distance is too close, so I have to do such an awkward thing.
