Chapter 165: The front wheel can't be put down
"Blue 9831, you go up to altitude 3600, turn right and head 300." The tower controls the command road.
The course of this command is not a standard go-around procedure, according to which you should make a continuous right turn and fly 030 in the heading direction.
The altitude is the go-around altitude given in accordance with the go-around procedure.
It may be that there is an influence, or Xu Qing is not a go-around, but aborted the approach and did not connect to the APP mode.
If you don't have the APP mode on, then there are many ways to disconnect the channel. TOGA didn't press it, just press the flight selection, you can disconnect the roll mode from the VORLOC, adjust the 300 heading, altitude, and the captain pressed the pitch mode to change the altitude layer.
Since there were no flaps 30 at the time, it was not a standard go-around flap program.
After the beginning of the rise, it is rising, and the wheel is closing.
The captain then increased the speed by 210 knots, and when the speed increased, the flap fifteen received the flap five.
Xu Qing was completely awake at this time, and he found that several seconds after the co-pilot put the landing gear on, the two lights of the main landing gear went out, but the lights of the front landing gear remained red.
Xu Qing's face was ugly, how could this be a bit of a feeling that the front landing gear was stuck.
"Can't you put the landing gear down?" Coldly, Xu Qing said in the back.
The two people present have been focusing on the landing gear failure, Xu Qing fell asleep again just now, and there was no sound from beginning to end.
The captain had a bitter face and nodded: "Let's hover and dispose of it later, and see if we can get the landing gear down." ”
But looking at the situation that you can't put it down now, and you can't put it away, nine times out of ten you are stuck in the middle.
Xu Qing's mentality has undergone some changes, and the 2.19 incident is still vivid, how can he cause trouble again just after a year.
Don't you really want to buy a yellow calendar and put it at home, and look at it before going to work every time.
The captain and co-pilot both looked at the indicator lights of the landing gear worriedly, and then turned their heads to look at Xu Qing in unison.
Don't look at the captain has been flying for seven years, he has been really smooth sailing for seven years, and he has never encountered major problems.
The first co-pilot is about the same, he has been flying for two or three years, and his vision is not as good as the captain!
Looking at it this way, although Xu Qingfei has the shortest time in the cockpit, he has really seen and dealt with big scenes.
Seeing that the captain and co-pilot both shifted their eyes to himself, Xu Qingbai rolled his eyes, tilted his head, and was angry: "Why do you think I'm not closing the flaps?" ”
The two people in the room were so attracted by the problem of the landing gear that they forgot to continue to retract the flaps after receiving five.
Seeing that the speed was about to increase to the UP speed, the co-pilot hurriedly received one of the flaps, and then the flaps were retracted.
The co-pilot wiped the sweat on his forehead embarrassedly, and his performance was really not as good as Xu Qing.
This is not a big problem, the limit speed of flap five and flap one is 250 knots, but there will be no overspeeding.
But as soon as he was attracted by the failure of the landing gear, he took care of one thing and the other, and the attention distribution was too poor, but Xu Qing could see it.
The gap is a bit obvious!
"Blue 9831, you just hover in place to deal with the fault, if you need to contact me, I will school" Tower Road.
"Hovering in place received, blue 9831!"
Xu Qing and the others began to hover in place, and the captain maintained a speed of 230 knots and began to try to put the landing gear.
Following the normal steps, the captain tried to put the landing gear again, and after a while, the front landing gear was still red, and the two main landing gear were green.
During this period, Xu Qing has been paying attention to the second set of landing gear indication system on the rear roof. It's just that in this system, the lights on the nose landing gear are never on.
It should be noted that this backup system only has three lights, all of which show green lights and no red lights. A red light is displayed in the main landing gear indication system, but there is no cherry blossom in the backup system
Although I didn't have much hope for this method in the first place, I was still a little irritated by the reality.
The captain scratched his neck, frowned, and then announced the checklist for the landing gear inconsistencies.
They knew that they would eventually have to do the process of manually placing the landing gear.
The procedure is not difficult, but what if the landing gear is not put manually?
Then they're going to hit the ground with their faces!
Xu Qing even felt that the landing gear failure was more tricky than a single engine.
As expected, the checklist goes to the manual landing gear checklist.
As required, the co-pilot placed the landing gear handle in a neutral position.
The airspeed is in line with the speed requirements for putting the landing gear, and there is no need to move.
The device for manually putting the landing gear was at Xu Qing's feet, and the work of pulling the handle of the artificial landing gear fell to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing rubbed his nose, he was like this when he was nervous.
The eyes of the captain and the co-pilot were focused on him again, just like the way Wang Duanya looked at him a year ago.
Xu Qing bared his teeth, opened the cover, pulled out all the three artificial landing gear handles, and after waiting for fifteen seconds, the co-pilot put down the landing gear handles again.
At this moment, Xu Qing and the three of them focused their eyes on the landing gear indicator light at the same time.
The green lights on the two main landing gear lit up as promised, but the red lights on the front landing gear seemed to be engraved on them, and there was no change at all.
Xu Qing looked up at the backup indication system above his head, and the indicator light in the middle was still off.
"This lamp can't be broken, right?" The captain did not give up and pressed the green light of the indication system, and after pressing it, the green light came on and there was no problem with the indicator light.
"! It's a big deal! The captain stared at the landing gear indicators, and after scolding, he didn't say a word.
"Brother, do you still continue to do some or all of the landing gear and put away the landing checklist?" The co-pilot on one side asked.
The captain's skull is about to explode, and he can memorize some or all of the landing gear with the landing checklist, but the difficulty of landing will not be reduced because you remember it clearly.
He also knows the essentials of landing with some or all of the landing gear retracted, and has even practiced many times on the simulator, but can it be the same?
Is there a chance to do it all over again? No!
The nose gear is not lowered, which means that the nose of the aircraft needs to have a close contact with the road.
Who can guarantee whether the "face" of the 737 is thick enough to withstand the constant friction during the deceleration?
Seeing that the captain didn't say anything, Xu Qing knew that he didn't have a bottom.
It's not that the captain can't land in the event of a landing gear failure, but that there is a probability, a probability that they dare not imagine.
"Blue 9831, how are you handling the fault?"
Xu Qing and the others have already turned around several times, and the tower can't help but worry.
The captain had not yet made a decision, and the co-pilot replied that he would wait a minute. The tower didn't rush it, but asked Xu Qing to report any problems immediately.
Not long after the call ended, the captain suddenly straightened up: "No, I have to confirm!" ”
pressed the call button: "Tower, apply for a low-altitude passage through this field, you can help me check what the state of the nose landing gear is!" ”
