Chapter 28: Guiding the Return
In the air, after the 802 fighter trembled, Ye Jianlong saw that all the lights on the dashboard went out, and then all the instruments failed.
I don't know where it crashed into the plane, but the great luck in the misfortune is that the power is still there, the aero engine is still roaring, and the control stick and rudder are still working normally.
"North Finger, I hit a bird."
Ye Jianlong did not panic, but was very calm, and he must be calm at this time, as long as the motivation is still there, there will still be a chance.
At this time, the instrument failed, and Ye Jianlong became blind, and his speed, height, and elevation angle were ...... I don't know.
Pilots don't have any reference in the air, they rely on instrument data. Therefore, Ye Jianlong did not dare to operate at will, so he had to maintain a climbing posture.
The commander of the North Finger said solemnly: "802, where did it hit?" How's it going? ”
The location of the bird strike has a great impact on the aircraft, and the best situation is to hit the place that does not affect the flight of the aircraft, and the most serious problem is to hit the engine, causing the engine to stop.
"The dashboard is out of order, the power is still there, and there is no problem with the control." Ye Jianlong said.
Beizhi breathed a sigh of relief, it was not the most serious engine, there was still a chance, and then asked: "Are you sure the plane is still under your control?" ”
"Confirm." Ye Jianlong was sure to be authentic, and his face was serious.
After circling in the air, Yang Luo flew with 802 on the left side, climbed at the same angle and speed, and said to Beizhi: "Beizhi, the 802 instrument is out of order, there is definitely no way to fly back on your own, I can fly with him and guide and act as a reference." ”
Yang Luo, Ye Jianlong, and Beizhi were all in the same channel, so they naturally knew what situation Ye Jianlong was in.
Beizhi pondered for a moment before replying, "Yes, stay in touch at any time." “
"Understood!" Yang Luo replied, and then said to Ye Jianlong: "802, do you believe me?" ”
"Faith." Ye Jianlong's words were concise and to the point, and he spit out a word.
"Okay, now you do as I say, the altitude is 3,000 meters, the airspeed is 465 kilometers per hour, the elevation angle is 32 degrees, and now the pressure rod is leveled and the throttle valve is closed." Yang Luo glanced at the data on the dashboard and said.
The data given by Yang Luo is actually the data on Yang Luo's own plane, which is equivalent to the data of Ye Jianlong, because their flight attitude is the same, and these data help Ye Jianlong's control of the plane.
Ye Jianlong looked sideways at the posture of the No. 801 fighter, and now the dashboard is out of order, and there is no use in looking at the eggs in front of him, so he can only keep looking at the 801 and use it as a reference.
After hearing Yang Luo's words, the side head did not turn around, nor did he speak, but the movement of his hand was not slow, his left hand retracted the throttle valve, and his right hand slowly pressed the lever forward.
Ye Jianlong is an experienced old flyer, and he is also familiar enough with the performance of his own car 802, and the pressure rod strength is just right, not light or heavy. Even without a dashboard, relying on the 801 alone as a reference, the aircraft was changed from a climbing attitude to a horizontal flight attitude.
"Okay, now the plane is in a horizontal attitude, the heading is 180, the field station is in the 245 heading, we need to deflect 65 degrees to the right." Yang Luo continued to give hints for the next step.
If the plane is normal, these two maneuvers can be made coherently, and turning right at the same time as leveling does not need to be so troublesome at all. But not now, it must be broken down to ensure that Ye Jianlong's operation is absolutely correct.
After Ye Jianlong successfully turned to the 245 course, Yang Luo, who had been tense, relaxed, just this time, not only to pay attention to the attitude of the 802 aircraft at any time, in case Ye Jianlong's operation range was too large, but also to pay attention to his flight attitude. You know, the two of them are very close, and once one of them does not operate properly, it may be the result of the collision of the two planes.
Yang Luo continued: "The altitude is 3000, the airspeed is 500, and the heading is 245, is there a problem with us maintaining this altitude and speed to return to the station?" “
"No, that's good." Ye Jianlong shook his head and said.
Now is the time to return home safely, not to return home as quickly as possible. It's best to maintain this attitude, and it's less difficult to land, although it will cost a bit more fuel.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Luo tuned the frequency to the channel used by the tower of Donglingchang Station and called: "Tower, 801 call, over." ”
Immediately, Hu Zhongming's voice sounded in the channel: "The tower received, it's over." ”
Yang Luo reported to the tower: "Report to the tower, 802 hit the bird ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Hu Zhongming.
"Hit the birds? Is the situation serious? Hu Zhongming exclaimed, apparently he had not yet received a report from Beizhi.
"The dashboard is out of order, nothing else, now I will guide the return, please prepare for the forced landing." Yang Luo said calmly.
"I'll arrange it right away, 801, you pay attention to the flight attitude of 802 at all times to ensure a safe return."
Without Hu Zhongming's arrangement, Yang Luo's voice sounded directly on the loudspeaker of the tower, and everyone on duty heard it, and someone had already pressed the special alarm.
"801 understands." Yang Luo paused for a moment, and then said, "Tower, in order to facilitate communication, you need to adjust the frequency to two or four points five." 802 can't be tuned, it's too troublesome for me to switch back and forth like this. “
After finishing speaking, Yang Luo switched back to the communication channel of Beizhi, smoothly controlling the No. 801 fighter, his eyes strafing back and forth between the dashboard and the 802 fighter, always paying attention to the flight attitude of the 802, and the headset of the flight helmet sounded the dialogue between the tower and Ye Jianlong.
After the conversation between the two ended, Yang Luo asked, "802, you don't seem to be nervous at all?" “
"What's so nervous, this isn't the first time I've hit a bird, the most serious situation is nothing more than skydiving." Ye Jianlong said freely.
Oops, there's a story.
Yang Luo suddenly became interested and asked, "Have you ever hit a bird before?" Was the forced landing successful, or was he a paratrooper? “
Ye Jianlong seemed to fall into memory, and it took a long time before he replied: "It was four years ago, when the Flying Jianjiao-7 took a new flight, it hit a bird when it was approaching the station and was about to land, which directly caused the engine to stop in the air and was forced to abandon the plane and parachute. ”
"Didn't you make a crash landing?"
"There is no chance, and the altitude and speed do not meet the requirements for forced landing." Ye Jianlong shook his head and said bitterly: "I'm fine, I'll fly again soon." But it's a pity that the new flyer is a good seedling of flying, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to fly anymore. ”
The Air Force has a specialized paratrooper unit, and that is the Airborne Forces. For them, it is proud and proud to be a paratrooper and enter the Airborne Forces.
But for flying, being a paratrooper is a shame.
No pilot wants to lose his plane and abandon it and parachute to become a paratrooper.
Even if there is only the slightest chance, I will try to save it, and unless I have to do it, I will choose to skydive.
During the conversation, Dongling Station appeared in the field of vision of the two.
"Tower, we're approaching the sky above the station and ready to land." After Yang Luo guided Ye Jianlong to descend to the height, he reported to the tower.
"I've seen you." Hu Zhongming was observing through the military telescope, and then immediately reported a set of meteorological data, "The wind direction is 265, the wind speed is 4 meters and seconds, the field pressure is 1004, the No. 2 and No. 3 runways have been emptied, 802, are you sure?" “
"Tower, I'm sure." Ye Jianlong's tone was categorical, without the slightest hesitation.
"Tower, we landed directly." Yang Luo said.
Now is an abnormal period, the 802 meter is out of order, and the flying four turns are too low, which only increases the danger. Today's weather is very good, and it is not complicated, so it is better to land directly.
"Yes." Hu Zhongming replied, although his face was calm, he was nervous in his heart.
Without the assistance of instruments, the landing is simply too dangerous.
"802, now at an altitude of 650 meters, with an airspeed of 320 kilometers per hour." Yang Luo reported the data for Ye Jianlong's reference.
"Understood." Ye Jianlong said calmly.
Guide Ye Jianlong to the altitude, and the two machines are aimed at the runway.
Looking down from the air, Dongling Station is ready, rescuers are in place, ambulances and fire trucks are waiting.
"Put down the landing gear." Yang Luo said, and at the same time put down the landing gear himself.
"801, 802, landing gear down normally." Hu Zhongming prompted.
The most dangerous moment came.
"Height 300!"
"200 meters!"
"100 meters!"
"50 meters!"
Only Yang Luo's voice was left in the military secret channel, and he reported the height again and again, and everyone in the tower heard it.
At this altitude, once it is not stabilized, there is no chance of skydiving. Hu Zhongming was very nervous at this time, but he could only choose to believe in Ye Jianlong's technique.
"15 meters! Lift the nose! “
This is the most dangerous moment in the landing,
At altitudes between 6 and 15 meters above the ground, the nose must be raised.
Pulling up too early is nothing more than pulling up again and landing again. But if you pull it up too late, the front wheels of the plane may hit the ground first, and then it may flip. At the same time, heavy landing will cause too much damage to the aircraft, and it is easy to jump.
[Thanks to the "Army 2016" for the tip.] 】
Yang Luo couldn't observe the attitude of 802 at this time, and landing required him to concentrate and always pay attention to the height of the nose.
As soon as Yang Luo's voice came out, Ye Jianlong, who was ready, reacted instantly.
Ye Jianlong's eyes stared at the runway, gently pulled the lever back, raised the nose slightly, and lowered the flaps at the same time.
"Bang!"
The rear wheels hit the ground and glide at high speed on the hardened track, followed by the front wheels dropping.
When it came to the ground, the instrument was not working, it could be said that it didn't matter, and Ye Jianlong operated it unhurriedly.
Put the parachute and brake.
"Good!" Hu Zhongming applauded on the tower, took the lead in applauding, and the hanging heart was put down at the moment when the rear wheel hit the ground, and the whole person was a lot more relaxed.
In the tower, bursts of applause rang out.
The plane successfully landed, although it has not stopped, but it also means that the forced landing was successful.
Ye Jianlong directly controlled the plane to turn to the towing lane in front of the No. 1 apron, and entered the hangar under the flag command of the ground staff.
This plane is temporarily unable to fly and needs to be inspected and repaired.
Yang Luo taxied all the way to the tarmac on combat readiness duty along the runway and stopped braking.
Ye Jianlong is good, the plane is out of order, so there is no need to continue to be on duty, but Yang Luo has to continue.
