86_86624 Airport, the sun is setting, and the sunset is dying the sky red.

Mo Huaiwen, the squad leader of the guard company, stood in a vigilant position with a loaded gun, and watched the surroundings of the silver war eagle alertly.

The crew has just finished the maintenance inspection of the aircraft and is packing up the tools and preparing for the handover with the crew.

Suddenly, Mo Huaiwen heard a "dang" sound from the back of the fuselage, the sound was very small, but he could hear the sound of metal impact.

Mo Huaiwen looked at the plane vigilantly, there was no one there.

Mo Huaiwen walked towards the plane, and at this time, the maintenance staff came over from the other side, holding a bunch of tools in his hand. A wrench fell from his hand with a "dang" sound.

Mo Huaiwen breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his post.

The sun is setting below the horizon.

The minibus that sent the crew drove to the tarmac and stopped, and the captain came to Mo Huaiwen to go through the plane handover procedures. This captain Mo Huaiwen knows, his name is Xiao Changhe, the captain, and it is said that aircraft technology is not an ordinary cow.

Moreover, Captain Xiao never puts on a show, he always greets the guards first when he sees them, and when he smiles, he shows his white teeth, and he can also call out the names of many soldiers in the guard company.

"Squad Leader Mo, it's hard!" From afar, he greeted Mo Huaiwen.

"Hello Captain!" Mo Huaiwen saluted.

After the handover is completed, the personnel begin boarding.

Mo Huaiwen noticed that the number of people boarding the plane this time was far more than the number of crew members.

"Extra people? Probably from the group of experts. Mo Huaiwen thought to himself.

The AWACS aircraft is known as the "multiplier" of the Air Force's combat effectiveness, playing the role of a command center and a node in the information chain. In order to adapt to the development of modern military science and technology, the Air Force is comprehensively upgrading the AWAC-200 and improving the performance of the system, so many experts are participating in air tests.

The plane drove up, and the huge roar broke Mo Huaiwen's thoughts. He looked up and saw that the sky was blue, and the sky in the west was a brilliant sunset, like a fiery red ribbon wrapped around the sky, and the stars were faintly visible in the east.

Silver Eagle slowly glides out of the tarmac and glides to the take-off line via the connecting lane, pausing briefly at the take-off line. The roar grew louder, and then it slid forward quickly, faster and faster, until finally, the nose of the plane jerked up, and it left the ground.

Mo Huaiwen watched the silver figure of the war eagle become smaller and smaller, flying towards the gorgeous sunset, flying towards the vast starry sky, and finally disappeared into the vast night sky.

After the plane took off, Mo Huaiwen relaxed a little, and he moved his numb legs and feet.

Half an hour later, it was completely dark, and the Milky Way was faintly visible in the clear blue sky.

He suddenly found fire trucks and ambulances whizzing out of the airport, and the shrill sirens made people's hearts flutter.

Mo Huaiwen was shocked, not knowing what was going on.

Soon, two more people arrived in the company's car, and the company commander said that the guard force should be strengthened.

"You're in charge of reinforcing the two tarmacs!" The company commander briefly said to Mo Huaiwen, "Don't let go of any suspicious people!" ”

"The plane that took off just now lost contact, very... Probably wrecked! Before leaving, the company commander added.

Mo Huaiwen only felt a bang on his head, and he was dizzy, and he pinched his forehead hard before he returned to normal.

Fang Fang quietly waited for her husband, Xiao Changhe, to return.

At ten o'clock in the evening, she heard a knock on the door.

"You're back!" She sat up from the bed in surprise and rushed to open the door.

The door opened, it was Meng Xiaojun, and there was a person behind him.

"Deputy Meng, what are you doing here?" Fang Fang said suspiciously, "It is said that men and women are not kissed. Is your captain's flight over? ”

Meng Xiaojun was unusual, he didn't speak, and walked in silently.

"Sister-in-law, there is news, I hope you are strong," Meng Xiaojun said with difficulty, his eyes reddened, "Our plane crashed, captain... Sacrificed! ”

Fang Fang was stunned for a moment, and immediately pointed at Meng Xiaojun's nose and scolded: "Get out of your fucking bastard!" I warn you, make a joke about this kind of thing again, believe it or not, the old lady will beat you flat! ”

"Comrade Fang Fang, well, what Comrade Meng Xiaojun said is true!" The middle-aged man who followed behind Meng Xiaojun whispered.

"Who the fuck are you? Meng Xiaojun came to act, right? Fang Fang pointed at the man and said, her tone trembling a little, "We just got our marriage certificate today, and you just make such an outrageous joke, like words?" ”

"He is the director of the Political Department." Meng Xiaojun whispered, his tears finally couldn't help but flow out, "Captain Xiao... After taking off, the plane rose to 5,000 kilometers and lost contact, and it was later found that it had crashed in a rice field 150 kilometers southeast of the airport. ”

Fang Fang grabbed Meng Xiaojun by the collar and pressed him against the wall, punching him in the stomach, "You ungrateful thing, Xiao Changhe treats you as a brother, always praises you for being good, but you curse him to death when he flies!" ”

Meng Xiaojun gasped in pain.

Fang Fang, she punched Meng Xiaojun in the stomach one after another.

Meng Xiaojun didn't resist, Director Cui wanted to stop him, but Meng Xiaojun signaled him not to move.

I don't know how many punches she punched, her fists became less and less, and her big, beautiful eyes were full of tears.

"Meng Xiaojun, you tease me, right?" She stopped the blow, she looked at Meng Xiaojun pitifully, her eyes full of begging.

Meng Xiaojun didn't speak, but let tears roll across his face.

Fang Fang finally let go of Meng Xiaojun, she took two steps back, fell on the bed, covered her head with the quilt, and cries came out of the quilt.

Her cry was not loud, but it was heartbreaking.

Director Cui motioned for the two female officers who had just arrived at the door to come in.

"Xiao Huang, Xiao Zhang, you two are here to accompany Comrade Fang Fang, and you are not allowed to leave for a single step, understand?"

"Understood, Director!"

"Meng Xiaojun, let's go, we have to prepare other things!"

Meng Xiaojun silently followed Director Cui out of the room.

The aftermath was carried out in an orderly manner.

Twenty days later, the expert group came up with a preliminary analysis of the accident: when the plane was at an altitude of 5,000 meters, the fuel tank of the aircraft exploded and caught fire, resulting in the crash of the aircraft. Why did the fuel tank explode? It may have been caused by an electrical spark in the wire, or it could have been caused by an external explosion, but the data recorded in the black box and any other evidence that could be gathered were insufficient to support either hypothesis.

The final conclusion of the accident investigation team only said that "the explosion and fire of the aircraft fuel tank caused the plane to burn and crash", and as for the cause of the explosion, it will be left to the future investigation after the technical means are available.

The tragedy of this accident is rare in the history of the Chinese Air Force. As a result of the accident, an AWACS-200 crashed, destroying the onboard equipment that was in the test phase, and 21 people were killed, including 13 AWACS specialists, 7 AWACS crew members and 1 other personnel.

In the words of relevant experts, the accident "seriously lagged behind the development plan of our army's early warning aircraft"
