An airline's maintenance hangar is the farthest away from the parking area, a relatively independent location, not far from the airport's second flight area, and the airport will have an annual capacity of 25 million passengers after the completion of the expansion.

Mo Yongan deliberately chose the hangar with the farthest distance and complete relevant support facilities of an airline, which is very beneficial to safety and confidentiality, and is not easy to affect the normal operation of the airport.

But today it must have had a serious impact.

To ensure that nothing goes wrong, Gaoqi Airport must maintain its current suspension status until the Y-8 medium transport aircraft carrying maintenance personnel and technical personnel and related ground support equipment land.

There are definitely multiple flights to be cancelled today.

At 7:20 a.m., the Y-8 landed at Gaoqi Airport, directly taxiing in front of the maintenance hangar of a certain airline, and the ground crews who had been carefully selected by the airline rushed up to assist the comrades of the unit in unloading the equipment in the cabin. Arriving on the same plane were Zhang Chongming's group, Niu Yaoyang's maintenance group, and Yi Xiaoyi's technical group, led by Tang Guozheng, and Zhang Wei also came. Zhongnan Station can be said to be pouring out.

The 1616 J-16 must be repaired, otherwise it can only be disassembled and shipped back.

Li Zhan and Chen Fei went over to greet them, and found that it was a strange-looking Y-8, a relatively new model, and the nose of the plane was without a navigator's cabin. It is a small cabin under the cockpit, with several windshields, and the Il-76 also has it, and the Il-series aircraft seem to have similar characteristics.

But it was not the Y-9, Li Zhan remembered that the Y-9 had not yet been mass-produced, and there were only a few prototypes in the transport pilots in the west. Later, Li Zhan learned that it was a modified logistics plane specially designed to carry aircraft ground support equipment and personnel. The Air Force has been exploring ways to improve the efficiency of combat units in transition operations.

Tang Guozheng led everyone to stride over and greet Li Zhan, and then said loudly, "It seems that it is very wise for the air division to choose you to fly for a test flight, and you have encountered more situations in a test flight than others in a year, which can save fuel." ”

"It's just a bit of an engine drain." Zhang Wei added with a smile.

Li Zhan argued, "The left hair is not broken, really, I briefly checked it, and the fire did not affect the left hair, so there should be no big problem." However, the inside of the tail rudder may be more seriously damaged. ”

The rudder returning to normal at the last moment does not mean that there are no problems, and it is very likely that it is a return to the light.

"You rest first, and I'll take care of the rest." Tang Guozheng said.

Li Zhan smiled bitterly and said, "How can I sleep." The hangar is borrowed from the local airlines, as well as the outside team of ground staff, the local airlines also urgently sent a batch of equipment and aviation materials over, I looked at a lot of testing equipment can be used, but there is no counterpart in the aviation materials. The local comrades are so powerful, I can't pick on them. ”

"It's up to you, yes, what about Director Mo?" Tang Guozheng asked, "Lao Mo turned out to be the commander of the 99th Division of the HNA Army, and he was only transferred to logistics a few years ago. ”

On the side, Chen Fei said in surprise, "Director Mo turned out to be the old chief." ”

Tang Guozheng smiled, "Lao Mo was the elite of the sea and the sky back then. ”

Chen Fei recalled that Mo Yongan, who wore an Air Force camouflage uniform like a cook on a construction site, it was really difficult to associate him with the "elite".

"Without further ado, the crew briefed on the situation." Tang Guozheng summoned everyone to hold an on-site meeting in the open space next to the fighter plane.

Li Zhan pointed at Chen Fei and said, "Captain Chen will introduce me." ”

"Yes!" Chen Fei was not pretentious, and immediately began to introduce, "Before you arrived, I summarized the situation of this night flight, and the current main thing is to solve the malfunction of the fighter, so I will focus on this aspect of the situation." ”

Obviously, the confrontation drill cannot be introduced here without any shredded words, and all that can be said revolves around the failure of the fighter itself.

Chen Fei's situation is summarized in an orderly manner, the logic is clear, and the problems are clear, and he has put a lot of effort into it. Since it does not play a big role in the flight process, these logistics must reflect their own role. After all, compared with Li Zhan, Chen Fei thinks that he has more work experience in organs, and he has been the chief of staff of the regiment.

The general situation had been reported before coming, and at this time, after Chen Fei's professional and targeted introduction to the fault situation, the maintenance team and the technical team had a rough idea in their hearts. According to the opinions given by the test aircraft group, the left engine should be a rupture in the oil supply line, which caused oil leakage, and the failure of the tail rudder is likely to be caused by a strong typhoon.

Several leaders have rich experience in emergency troubleshooting, not to mention that the manufacturer's technical team led by Yi Xiaoyi is also there, except for the engine that was not brought together, several other major components and aviation materials have arrived randomly, so from the current situation, the current resources are basically able to repair the 1616 J-16 fighter.

Tang Guozheng has quite a lot of experience in this kind of emergency repair command, and he methodically divided the personnel into groups, quickly determined the maintenance project process, and clarified the tasks of each group.

Zhang Chongming walked to Li Zhan's side after saying a few words to him, and said in a low voice, "Team Leader Li, before maintenance, we must first get first-hand data for technical analysis, including flying ginseng data. Again, we need a detailed report from the crew, especially after the aircraft has flown into the middle mountains. ”

Li Zhan understood and nodded slightly, "Yes!" Please rest assured! ”

"Then Team Leader Li, Xiao Gan is already waiting in the car, and the superiors are in a hurry, so you can't rest for the time being." Zhang Chongming said with a smile.

Li Zhan smiled, "Yes, I'll go over right away." ”

Gan Tingting was already waiting on the courtes, as soon as Li Zhan got in the car, the driver immediately started and sent the two of them to the airport hotel, Mo Yongan had already asked people to book a room, one each for Li Zhan and Chen Fei, which was both a temporary place for questioning and a place for the two of them to rest.

The plane could not be repaired in a few days, so Li Zhan and Chen Fei had to stay in the airport hotel during this period.

This time, Li Zhan didn't have a grinning face or make jokes about Gan Tingting, and told him everything about the night flight from beginning to end. When the information provided by the pilot is combined with the flight reference data, sensor data, etc., the overall picture will be clearer, and the more and more comprehensive things the technical analysis team can get.

It took more than three hours to finish, Li Zhan sent Gan Tingting to the door and hurriedly took a shower, lay down and fell asleep at almost ten o'clock in the morning, and fell asleep in a few seconds. By this time, he had been working for thirteen or fourteen hours in a row, especially the more than three hours of "you ask me answers" with Gan Tingting, which was quite physically exhausting.

The airline's maintenance hangar is so large that it can fit an Airbus 330 for repairs and even major surgeries such as engine replacement. After the J-16 went in, the hangar still looked empty, so the Y-8 logistics plane was simply pulled in, and the Niu Yaoyang maintenance team simply used the Y-8 logistics plane as a tool aircraft, and basically all the tools needed could be found in the aircraft......

Li Zhan only slept for two hours before getting up, his spirit recovered a lot, he called Chen Fei's room, and sure enough, Chen Fei also woke up. Soon at twelve o'clock in the afternoon, this is the time for lunch, and unless the soldier is too sick to wake up, he will never oversleep. Three things are important: eat, sleep, and fight.

The Coaster has been waiting at the entrance of the foyer outside the hotel lobby, and the hotel knows that the car is carrying troops, so the driver is allowed to park the car at the door for a long time, and the passengers can get on the car directly when they come out, without braving the rain outside to go to the open-air parking lot.

Li Zhan and Chen Fei whispered something, and when they got into the car, they saw the driver holding a boxed lunch and eating, and immediately said embarrassedly, "Master, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for causing you trouble." ”

The driver was a middle-aged man, and he hurriedly put down the lunch box and swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "It's not hard, it's not hard, I should do it." In fact, I also served as a soldier, an army, a tank division, and a five-nine-tank. ”

"Old squad leader!" Li Zhan and Chen Fei stood up and saluted solemnly.

The driver master is in his forties, and according to what he said, he either joined the army 20 years ago or joined the army for more than 10 years, and Li Zhan's generation was still playing with mud and sand at that time.

"No, no, I'm just an ordinary soldier, you do great things. Two chiefs, are you going to the hangar? "The driver is a little restrained, just like a subordinate meeting a superior.

The subordinates see what the superiors are, and it has nothing to do with age or military age.

But Li Zhan and Chen Fei didn't dare to take the shelf, and hurriedly said, "Old squad leader, you finish eating first, don't be in a hurry." ”

"It's okay, I'll eat again later." The driver started the car as he spoke, and walked away steadily.

Li Zhan and Chen Fei looked at each other and sighed, feeling inexplicably guilty in their hearts. In the eyes of many people, these airplanes are the pride of the sky, and they are really the pride of the sky, worthy of such a description, but this army is supported by countless unknown ordinary soldiers like the driver master, and they should be respected.

To put it mildly, some of the glamour of the appearance is supported by the obscure big-headed soldiers.

Li Zhan felt a lot in his heart: After staying in the army for a long time, he inevitably felt more or less resentment, especially after seeing some bad phenomena in the process of contact with local society, the more resentment he had, and the impact of various imbalances and various values, how difficult it was to keep the red color forever and not degenerate.

It is inevitable that there will be emotions such as "Lao Tzu is desperate to protect his family and defend the country, and you still belittle yourself like this". In fact, what is there to complain about, how happy he is with the driver master, at least the material conditions are much better.

It was obvious that the driver master had been waiting, and he had been waiting while they were sleeping, which made Li Zhan very upset, especially when he knew that the driver master was a veteran who was almost a round older than them, and he was even more ashamed in his heart.

It's not enough to do it yourself.

Put away the distractions and say goodbye to the driver for a while, Li Zhan strode into the maintenance hangar, Chen Fei trotted to follow, and suddenly widened his eyes and said, "Hey, they have all removed the left hair, this is efficient enough." ”

In just half a day, the engine was dismantled, and the efficiency was not high.

Li Zhan walked a few steps quickly and said, "Take a look, I hope there is no irreparable damage." ”

"It's hard to say, after all, it's the plane you fly." Chen Fei said.

Li Zhan glared, "Do I have to scrap it completely, and besides, it's still good to have a left hair after landing." ”

"Make a bet?" Chen Fei said with a smile.

Li Zhan laughed and said, "Revolutionary soldiers don't gamble. ”

Seeing that he had arrived at the scene, the left engine was placed on the oilcloth on the left wing side of the fighter, and there was an engine frame on the oilcloth, and Yi Xiaoyi took several technicians to carefully inspect the engine. Niu Yaoyang's maintenance team did not have the ability to overhaul the engine for the time being, so they set up a frame at the tail to inspect the tail rudder.

"Yi Gong, what's the situation with Zuofa? Is it just a rupture in the oil supply pipe? Before Li Zhanren arrived, he pointed to the engine and asked Yi Xiaoyi loudly.

Yi Xiaoyi raised his head and said with a smile, "Yes, I just did a preliminary inspection, and it can basically be determined that it is the thrust drop caused by the rupture of the oil supply line." ”

Li Zhan pointed at Chen Fei with his hand, "Listen." ”

After speaking, he threw down Chen Fei a few steps to Yi Xiaoyi's side and said, "You must be sure, I will point to this turnaround." ”

"What do you mean?" Easy to be small and easy to understand.

Li Zhan said with a smile, "They all say that if I fly a plane and the engine is dangerous, it will definitely break the engine, so you have to use bloody facts to prove that this is a fallacy, which is not true." ”

"Brigade Li, you do have some expensive engines, and the three-year-old children in our factory's family compound know about you." Yi Xiaoyi said with a smile.

He met Li Zhan and Beiku, when Li Zhan was still the captain of the Eagle Falcon Brigade.

Li Zhan was very embarrassed, and quickly changed the topic, "How could the oil pipe break?" Don't tell me it has something to do with rudder failure. ”

Before Yi Xiaoyi could speak, Niu Yaoyang, who was on the high shelf at the tail wing, wiped his hands with a rag and said, "First brother, it is related to the failure of the tail rudder." The transmission was deformed, and it is estimated that the squeeze had cut the oil pipe somewhere, and we are now ready to remove the rear wing for inspection. ”

The pilot controls the horizontal wing rudder surface and the vertical wing rudder surface through foot pedals, using a fly-by-wire system instead of a mechanical lever for transmission, but there is also a hydraulic system and a lever device. It is certain that the rudder must have been jammed due to external factors, but the exact cause of the rupture of the oil supply to the left engine will require a thorough investigation.

Li Zhan was slightly stunned and said, "Isn't that going to be overhauled." ”

The overhaul would have to be delayed for at least three to five months, and the actual combat flight test work would be seriously affected - the progress would already be seriously delayed.

Yi Xiaoyi thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be necessary, let's take a look at the specific situation first, maybe you don't have to make a big move." ”

Li Zhan rolled up his sleeves, "Let's do it, hurry up, I'm not going anywhere to stay and help." ”
