Chapter 187: Low-level errors in apron control
"It's too early!" Instructor Chang complained, Xu Qing saw the runway not far away, on the five sides, there was a plane about to land over the runway.
From the landing of the plane to the disengagement and re-carrying, it will take five or six minutes, and there is enough time for the 9271 crew to slide out first.
Instructors don't understand that it is really necessary to leave such a large gap on the apron?
The rain on the windshield was no longer the drizzle just now, the raindrops the size of beans slapped on the windshield, and Instructor Chang glanced at the machine standing in the rain like a sculpture not far to the left.
"Blue 9271, you see it doesn't matter if I move forward, it's a little rainy outside, let the maintenance go back first." Instructors and apron control lanes.
As long as the plane does not move, the maintenance must be on standby, no matter what the gas is.
"Blue 9271, wait a minute!" Ramp control loop.
Well?
Teacher Chang and Xu Qing glanced at each other, and there was a big doubt in their eyes, neither of them agreed? Airport controls are so strict now?
After less than half a minute, a voice came from the apron control frequency: "Blue 9271, you can move, be careful not to exceed the parking position of 121, it will have an impact!" ”
"Rogered, no more than 121!" Teacher Chang smiled: "Sounds like a newcomer." ”
Instructor Chang pointed out that this ramp control should be a newcomer, Xu Qing himself is also a newcomer, he can't hear the difference between the old control and the new control, but he can be sure that the instructions for this ramp control are indeed quite detailed, and they are a little too detailed.
Because the maintenance is on the left side, that is, the side of the regular instructor, the permanent instructor gave a sliding gesture.
The maintenance outside the plane received the sliding gesture of the instructor and also replied to the gesture that could be sliding.
Here, it is not that the control gives the permission to slide out, but you also need to inform the maintenance that you can slide out only after getting the slide gesture from the maintenance.
Due to the limited view from the cockpit, many places are not visible. Whether the ground equipment and personnel near the aircraft are completely removed need to be confirmed by the aircraft maintenance, and the aircraft maintenance will reply to the gesture that they can move after confirming that there is no impact nearby.
This is the case with the gesture interaction between the instructor and the maintenance just now.
Usually when it is white and the light is sufficient, if you use gestures to communicate with the aircraft maintenance, some pilots will "watch the gestures slide out". If at night or when the light is not good, due to reflection or other reasons, it is difficult for the maintenance to see the gestures of the pilot in the cockpit, so at the end of the maintenance will be a sentence of "watch the lights slide out", one looks at the gestures, the other looks at the lights, this is the difference.
The so-called watching the light slide out, this light is a glide light. When the crew is ready to taxi, turn on the taxiing light, and the maintenance will give a glide gesture according to the situation when the taxiing light is on.
After getting the sliding gesture of the aircraft maintenance, Xu Qing turned on the taxiing light, and the instructor Chang first released the stop brake, added a little throttle to let the plane move first, and the plane moved forward slightly, retracted the throttle, stepped on the brake, and stopped the plane.
After the accelerator of the plane received the slow train, Instructor Chang set the stop brake again, stretched his waist, and said, "Let's do the pre-taxiing checklist." ”
Xu Qing finished the late taxiing checklist according to the instructions, and at this time, the plane to be carried had just left the runway, and the crossing was just opposite the entrance to the apron, and it taxied into the apron, and Xu Qing and their plane were right opposite to the head of the school
Xu Qing turned off the taxiing lights after they stopped, but the plane that broke away from the plane came in stunned with the taxiing lights on.
The taxiing lights of the plane were extremely dazzling, and the time was too early, and the surroundings were not completely lit up, so Xu Qing's eyes couldn't be opened.
Although there is no clear procedure to turn off the taxiing lights when the two planes are facing each other, there is a common rule between pilots, especially when the light is bad, turning on the taxiing lights and slapping the opposite face, isn't it......
"High beam dog!" Teacher Chang whispered.
When the two planes approached, Xu Qing and the three had to bow their heads to avoid the bright light. Instructor Chang was very angry, they had already arrived at the apron, there were many lighting facilities nearby, although it was not as white, but even if the taxiing lights were turned off, he could still see the taxiing line, and he didn't know what the captain of the plane was thinking.
Teacher Chang couldn't bear it anymore, and turned on and off the running lights, which was already explicit, and he almost named his name on the radio.
The plane on the opposite side came to his senses and turned off the taxiing lights after the instructor turned them on, but they switched to the parking position in a few seconds.
"This quality ......" Teacher Chang shook his head: "Apply to slide out!" ”
"Blue 9271, it's not affected, apply to slide out." Xu Qingdao.
"Blue 9271, S, H1, R front, etc!" The apron control gives taxiing instructions.
"S, H1, R, etc.! Blue 9271! ”
After Xu Qing finished reciting, he looked at the airport map and recognized the taxi route.
"Got it? That's gone! Instructor Chang was extremely patient with Xu Qing, and waited for Xu Qing to figure out how to skate before starting to step up the gas pedal skating school
Xu Qing is now on the S taxiway, just go straight, the first left turn at the crossing is H1, and the first taxiway after entering H1 is R.
Xu Qing and they taxied on S, and he found that there was a plane taxiing parallel to them on his left, and the position should be on the R taxiway.
He didn't care, after all, the two didn't matter, and he didn't look at it at it, but was thinking about how to skate next.
Instructor Chang didn't think much about it, but followed the taxiing command on the apron and began to turn left into H1.
It's just that when he just turned about 40 degrees to the left, his eyes unconsciously narrowed again, a feeling he had just experienced, which was the instinctive physiological reaction of the strong light shining on his eyes.
To his left, another bright light shone through.
Instructor Chang's reaction was extremely fast, he knew that this light was a taxiing light, so there was an airplane on H1?
Instructor Chang turned his head to look, and the reeling wheel he was holding suddenly stopped, and the plane that was taxiing parallel to them just now turned into H1 at the same time as them.
Where can I continue to turn, brake with one foot, step on the plane, look to the left rear, and estimate that most of the fuselage has turned into H1.
Looking at the plane in front of the left again, it is almost completely turned into H1.
The plane apparently noticed the predicament and stopped.
Instructor Chang was just about to explain the situation to the apron control, but the apron control took the lead in speaking: "Blue 9271, you stop in place now, can you still turn right back to S?" ”
Instructor Chang straightened up, leaned into the side window of Xu Qing's side and looked down, his face gradually solemn.
After returning to his seat, he replied: "9271, I shouldn't be able to turn around." ”
For a moment, there was silence in the ramp control frequency.
Xu Qing and Teacher Chang glanced at each other, and this ...... It's embarrassing!
