Chapter 171: Twenty consecutive explosions of the runway side lights

Between life and death, there is a great terror!

The firefighter was not entirely sure what the debris was, and even if he didn't know which part of the plane it was, he knew that the debris on the runway was quite dangerous.

The anxious voice of the tower sounded on the intercom: "Blue 9831, emergency go-around, go-around!" ”

The tower's request was not immediately replied to, and the Blue 9831 did not make any moves.

Because it was too late, the moment the firefighters reported the tower, the blue 9831 was already about to be grounded, and it was too late to wait for the tower to relay it.

When the tower's go-around command just came out, the blue 9831 had actually been grounded.

The picture turns to Xu Qing here!

After Xu Qing and the others crossed the decisive height, they looked at the dense vehicles on the left side of the runway below, and their hearts were also under double pressure.

The plane began to level at about 20 feet, and at this time, Xu Qing quickly turned off the four main fuel pumps (the central fuel tank was already out of fuel, and the central fuel pump had already been turned off), and he was nervously waiting for the moment of grounding.

At that moment, in the firefighter team on the left side of the line, a person rushed out from a fire truck, snatched something from the firefighter next to him, and then looked like he was shouting.

Xu Qing didn't know what happened to the firefighter, but what he saw in less than a second suddenly shrouded his heart with a layer of haze.

Something seems to be wrong!

Xu Qing couldn't think about it, the next moment the plane was already grounded, and almost at the same time, the shouts of the tower sounded in the radio communication: "Blue 9831, emergency go-around, go-around!" ”

Xu Qing and the captain were stunned, what is the situation?

Even if it is just grounded and the tower lets the flight go back, Xu Qing and they still have to pull it up again, but is this timing too embarrassing? Just a moment before the go-around command came out, Xu Qing had already turned off the fuel pumps.

Turning off the fuel pump won't cause the engine to shut down immediately, but it's impossible to get back on the fly when the fuel pump is off!

Xu Qing went to the tower to play which one, and he was about to turn on the fuel pump again, and the captain at this time put his right hand on the throttle stick, made a gesture to refuel, and prepared to return to flight.

Just as Xu Qing's fingers were about to touch the electric door switch of the fuel pump, a dull gas explosion sounded, which made Xu Qing's hand tremble.

Before the two of them could suddenly appear where the air explosion came from, the plane was like a wild horse that had escaped, and its direction instantly lost control and rushed to the left.

On the left is the standby point of the airport's fire and medical department, where a large crowd of people is gathered!

This unexpected turn of events has provoked widespread panic, the first of which is the fire and medical departments on standby.

Standing on the lawn began to run in all directions, and those who were still in the car began to drive backwards!

Isn't it just that the nose landing gear is faulty, and there is no risk of losing control, how can it rush towards them uncontrollably as soon as it is grounded?

The fire and medical departments didn't understand it, and Xu Qing didn't understand it either, but listening to the air explosion just now and the sudden loss of direction, it was very likely that the tire had burst.

There was no time to find out whether it was a flat tire or not, and their top priority was to control the runaway plane.

Where can the captain still refuel at this time, and then refuel the accelerator, that is, accelerate to the outside of the runway.

The handwheel and rudder are used again and again, just to stop the trend of left-hand rush.

Even though the captain's reaction was fast, half of the fuselage was still out of the runway, and what Xu Qing saw in front of him was no longer the runway centerline light, but the runway side light!

Xu Qing could even hear the sound of the wheels crushing the lights on the side of the runway, exactly the same as the sound of crushing glass slag.

In just a few seconds, Xu Qing roughly estimated that the wheels had smashed more than two dozen runway side lights!

Fortunately, the captain was well controlled, and the plane gradually turned back to the runway centerline. However, the captain was still distracted by the correction direction and neglected the action with the nose.

Seeing that the captain did not increase the amount of levers over time, Xu Qing did not hesitate, grabbed the steering rod, and began to carry the lever himself.

When Xu Qing got started, the captain realized that he had forgotten to increase the amount of rods. After correcting the direction back, he took over Xu Qing's control and gradually increased the amount of the lever to keep the nose in the air.

The amount of rod gradually increases, until the phosphorus can no longer be carried to the position. The captain then began to trim backwards, and kept hitting backwards, trying to position the nose of the plane in a raised posture.

However, as the speed gradually decreased, the rudder surface effect of the elevator became less and less, and even if the trim was played to the end, it still could not prevent the nose from starting to fall back.

The captain and Xu Qing involuntarily held their breath, they didn't know what would happen after the nose fell.

Contrary to their expectations, the nose of the machine was grounded after a short period of falling, and there was no direct friction between the nose and the pavement as expected.

Although the nose landing gear was not completely fixed, it was still stretched out for the most part, and the nose landing gear that was not fixed was temporarily holding the nose.

Xu Qing and the captain were also a little confused in the face of this unexpected joy, this is different from the plan?

Xu Qing and the others were not happy for long, the cockpit suddenly ushered in a sense of weightlessness, the nose of the plane fell rapidly, and finally had a close contact with the road as expected!

After all, it was not locked, and the nose landing gear finally did not resist after supporting it for a short time!

The sudden feeling of weightlessness was really terrifying, but it was extremely short-lived, and the weightlessness was followed by a heavy butt slamming on the seat.

At this moment, Xu Qing's gaze was downward, and he could clearly see the centerline light of the runway that was slightly biased on the right, thinking that it was a dazzling spark!

The foam pavement has not yet arrived, and this time is the most dangerous time!

Since the nose of the aircraft was grounded, the captain immediately stepped on the brakes, manually raised the speed brake, and turned on the anti-spray.

Although it is no longer in a high-speed state, the effect of the speed brake and reverse spray is not good, but it is better than nothing, and all means are used!

The deceleration means were used, the speed of the plane was gradually decreasing, but Xu Qing's heart was pounding. He was afraid that the nose structure would not be able to support it, which would lead to the separation of the nose and fuselage!

Xu Qing's worst fears did not happen, and after a few seconds, the plane plunged headlong into the foam area. With the isolation of foam, there are no more flying sparks.

Without the splash of sparks, the danger of fuel explosion was minimized, but Xu Qing couldn't laugh at all.

It is very likely that the tires will be punctured, resulting in a significant reduction in the braking performance of the aircraft, coupled with the poor braking effect in the foam area, and the deceleration of the aircraft will become slower after the aircraft enters the foam area.

Xu Qing can even see the head of the runway!
