Chapter 345: An Unbearable Name
The maintenance took the notebook and carefully looked at the fault record on it, which showed that during the flight from N to Z six days ago, during the cruise phase, the generator driven by engine No. 2 jumped without warning. At this time, it does not mean that the generator driven by engine No. 2 is disconnected, and some systems on the plane will lose power. The generators driven by the two engines are connected, and once one generator is disconnected, the other generator will be connected in time to take on the tasks of the original two engines, and will not cause the aircraft to lose power.
At that time, the unit was disposed of according to the QRH and the generator driven by engine No. 2 was re-connected, but it took two attempts to reconnect the generator driven by engine No. 2 on the third time.
The failure did not last long, nor did it have any substantial impact on flight safety, after which the flight crew kept an eye on the operation of the generator driven by the No. 2 engine, and the subsequent flight operation did not occur again until the safety of the landing.
Although there were no consequences, the flight crew reported the incident to the aircraft maintenance and wrote a fault record.
The fault records written by the flight crew in the maintenance book are very general, only a general description, and no details can be seen from it. The maintenance knew that under the premise that the APU was unavailable at this time and the aircraft only had two sets of AC power supply, this kind of electrical fault was indeed more noteworthy, and he also understood what Zhang Qijun meant by showing him this fault record, that is, he said: "Captain, you wait a minute, I will call to ask about the details of this matter." ”
The fault record of the flight crew in the maintenance book is only a few sentences, and I can't see anything, but the maintenance department of Xingfei Airlines should have a detailed record of this matter and a disposal plan. This maintenance is to call the maintenance department of Star Fly Airlines directly.
Sure enough, there was a detailed record of this matter in the maintenance department of Xingfei Airlines, but according to the records, after the plane landed, a series of tests showed that there was no problem with the generator driven by the aircraft's No. 2.
There is a set of rules for the safety test of the aircraft, not that I can think that the generator driven by the second plane is working normally, since there is a situation where it jumps away for no reason, it must be tested.
However, after testing and inspection, it was not found that there was any problem with the generator driven by the No. 2 engine, so it can only be considered that the aircraft has occasional convulsions.
This kind of system pumping is rare, but it is not uncommon, and this situation is most likely to occur in flight management systems. Xu Qing had encountered before that during the cruise, the CDU restarted inexplicably, without any reason, everything was as usual after the restart, nothing happened.
However, this kind of ventilation in the electrical system is still relatively rare, at least Xu Qing and Zhang Qijun have not encountered it.
The aircraft contains many complex systems, and it is not incomprehensible to occasionally have a nerve, and for the 737, a more traditional model, the system convulsion can only be said to be rare and strange.
"Shouldn't this kind of problem with generators that can't be connected to be more common on Airbus planes?" Zhang Qijun is actually not very satisfied with this answer.
He is also the captain, not to mention that he has seen the wind and waves, but the knowledge is also there, which is really quite rare. It is more common that after the engine starts, when the APU power is converted to the engine-driven generator, there will be occasional failure to connect, that is, the APU power cannot be converted to the engine-driven generator, which he has encountered.
However, flying well, the engine-driven generator jumps away for no reason, how does it feel that it is not a thing of nature! Zhang Qijun was always a little panicked in his heart.
Of course, the pilot can fly the plane, not the maintenance, and he can't fully understand the structure of the plane, and he can't tell what the problem is, just by feeling.
Just what the maintenance said about what the engine-driven generator was doing, all kinds of professional terms, Xu Qing and Zhang Qijun were dizzy, unconscious, and they couldn't find a place to interject.
Although there are still some doubts, there is no reason to refute them.
The maintenance is a little surprised, this kind of failure is indeed more common on Airbus aircraft, this phenomenon is due to the difference between the design of Airbus and Boeing, but even in the maintenance circle, this kind of thing is not known.
"The captain knows a lot, even the maintenance doesn't know much." The maintenance was impressed by Zhang Qijun's insight, and he knew such a remote knowledge.
Zhang Qijun was complimented by the maintenance and was a little embarrassed. He has some friends who fly to Airbus, and when they have dinner together, their friends will talk about the situations they usually encounter, including the situation when the engine-driven generator jumps off. The captain of the Airbus asked their company's maintenance at the time, and the maintenance said that Airbus had encountered more failures than Boeing in this kind of engine jumping failure.
I didn't expect that the partial knowledge I heard by chance could be dressed up today, but Zhang Qijun didn't expect it.
Maintenance: "We all came according to the standards, and we can be released." ”
"Of course I know that it can be released, but the APU can't be used, and if there is another problem with the engine-driven generator, it will be a nearby alternate landing, and it will be troublesome." Zhang Qijun finally expressed his worries.
The maintenance was a little difficult, and according to the inspection, in addition to the APU power supply, the other two engine-driven generators were no problem, even if there was a history of pumping. You can't just let it go for the sake of a history of convulsions.
"According to the regulations...... We're fine. If something goes wrong, it's a matter of luck. That's all the maintenance can say. If the engine-driven generator is pumped again, it is really a matter of luck, or character.
"Luck problem...... Zhang Qijun chewed on these four words, but his eyes began to turn to Xu Qing, who was silent beside him.
Xu Qing sighed in his heart, coupled with Zhang Qijun's "kind" eyes, he instantly felt that the atmosphere was a little stiff. Even if the maintenance was slow to react, he found that something seemed to be wrong, and the corner of his eye swept the task book sandwiched at the entrance of the cockpit, and the co-pilot followed by a name - Xu Qing!
The maintenance instantly cast his eyes on Xu Qing, and pulled the corners of his mouth with a half-smile: "If you have this name...... It's a little hanging. ”
The maintenance subconsciously didn't feel that the young man in front of him, who was not good-looking and didn't talk much, was Xu Qing, who was in the limelight on the Internet, but he had the same name and surname.
Xu Qing, who has the same name and surname as him, is ...... luck He was too embarrassed to say. In just a few years, he has encountered more special feelings than people in ten lifetimes, should he say that he is lucky, or is he unlucky?
People who always fly around in the sky still have some taboos.
"Xu Qing, we still have to believe in our fate. I won't call you by your name for a while, we don't have the strength of my idol, we can't control this name, and we can't touch this mold. Zhang Qijun discussed with Xu Qing earnestly.
"Mold...... Moldy heads. Xu Qing couldn't laugh when he heard it, he really didn't know how to reply to Zhang Qijun's words, how much magic could the name of his two words be, so that Zhang Qijun avoided it like a tiger.
The maintenance was still fanning the flames next to him: "Brother, we can't afford this name, except for that one, we can't control it!" Listen to your captain and say less of those two words. ”
The flying industry is still special, after all, it is not down-to-earth, but also depends on the sky to eat, and there is always some metaphysical taste.
When he was still in Blue Sky Airlines, Xu Qing heard of a student who interrupted the take-off of the first shift, the windshear after the take-off of the second shift, and the diversion of the third shift, which is a legend.
Xu Qing was helpless, and in Zhang Qijun's expectant eyes, he had to nod in agreement.
From the plane to the landing, Xu Qing wants to be a person without a name. Xu Qingzhen never expected that his name could become a taboo. It reminds him of a comic book character - Conan!
Conan, who is known as the god of life and death in elementary school, has a murder in his place, and a special situation in Xu Qing's place, maybe this is a kind of inheritance.
Faced with this situation, Xu Qing had to bow his head to his name, it was really funny to think about it.
"From now on, your name ...... Forbid! Zhang Qijun crossed his arms to form an X pattern and showed it to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing was so blocked that he couldn't say a word for a long time. What can you do except accept your fate.
After the communication, Zhang Qijun signed the maintenance book, and at this time, the second shuttle bus had already come, and the remaining passengers were boarding.
Zhang Qijun called the purser and asked about how many people had not boarded the plane.
The purser visually saw that there were more than twenty of them, and most of the remaining people did not have suitcases in their hands, so they were not worried about not being able to fit on the luggage rack for a while.
"I'll have to wait twenty minutes for a while, and you can broadcast the delay broadcast, and the delay is due to the weather on the route." Zhang Qijun commanded.
Generally speaking, if the delay time is less than 15 minutes, it is still possible to make a delayed broadcast, and after this time, it is usually necessary to make a delayed broadcast. The delay in broadcasting should first state the time of the delay, and the second should state the reason for the delay.
The flight attendants are most afraid of the kind of delay that has no time and no reason, and the passengers don't know where to start when they ask. Thinking that there is time and reason this time, and the delay is not long, she believes that she can still appease the passengers.
Zhang Qijun continued to order: "This time we don't have APU, no air conditioning, don't close the hatch first when everyone gets on for a while, otherwise the cabin will be stuffy." ”
"If someone is really uncomfortable, you can let them go to the hatch to breathe, let's have a better attitude." Zhang Qijun said.
"Yes, Captain! After more than 20 minutes, it can still be done. "The purser was full of confidence.
Zhang Qijun: "Okay! You just close the cockpit door, close the cockpit door in a moment and we'll call you. ”
The purser answered, closed the lock cap, and closed the cockpit door.
After the purser exited the cockpit, Zhang Qijun asked Xu Qing to report that he was ready, anyway, he would be able to finish boarding in a while, and now he would line up early in the morning, and the waiting time would be less.
Xu Qing glanced at the cargo door indicator light and confirmed that the loading had been completed at this time, and the passengers were left to board the plane.
Therefore, Xu Qing reported that he was fully prepared for the release according to Zhang Qijun's instructions, and he could make the release application time. The release reply was known, and only asked Xu Qing and them to wait for a while. When the time is about the same, they will be asked to switch to the ramp frequency.
Xu Qing: All they can do now is wait.
Not to mention, the boarding speed of the remaining passengers is much faster than Zhang Qijun expected, and the rest of the people have less luggage, and the efficiency is really not covered. After about five or six minutes, Zhang Qijun could no longer see anyone on the passenger ladder car.
After turning up the surveillance camera, Xu Qing and the two found that there was only one person left in the front cabin still standing, and the boarding process was basically completed, and they could close the cabin and leave at any time.
When the purser saw that the boarding was almost completed, he broadcast the delay broadcast by the way, even through the thick cockpit door, Xu Qing and they could hear it clearly.
As soon as the delay broadcast was broadcast, the cabin exploded instantly, mainly from the passengers on the first shuttle bus, because they had realized that the plane was not air-conditioned, and the passengers who came up behind had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.
"What a broken plane! Not even air conditioning! ”
"Yes, not only is there no air conditioning, but it's not on time! Small companies really can't! ”
"I have never encountered an airplane without air conditioning in China Airlines and Dongfang before, and today is really an eye-opener. Oops, this plane is still a big company, and a small company is really unreliable! ”
At this time, those passengers who took more planes talked a lot, and they joined forces to criticize Xingfei Airlines, which mainly focused on the scale of Xingfei Airlines. After all, compared with China Airlines and Oriental airlines that either have a long history or are large-scale, Star Airlines is a posterity in terms of establishment time and company size, which cannot be argued.
"Didn't you say before that Xu Qing transferred to Xingfei Airlines? I haven't seen a real person for a year, shouldn't it be made up, this kind of company doesn't care about the state? ”
Slowly, from the judgment of the company's historical scale to the questioning of the company's reputation, I am eager to approve Xingfei Airlines for nothing.
There were a few passengers in the rear cabin who couldn't hold back, and when they arrived at the door of the front cabin to breathe, these people suffered from the lack of air conditioning, and the criticism of Xingfei Aviation was particularly vigorous, and the sound was so loud that even Xu Qing and Zhang Qijun who were through the cockpit door could hear it clearly.
Although Xu Qing has not been in Xingfei Airlines for a long time, he still has no sense of belonging, but he is still a little embarrassed when he is pointed at his nose and scolds his company.
Xu Qing is really hard to refute, after all, it is a fact that the plane does not have air conditioning, and they are at fault first.
There was a commotion outside, Xu Qing was irritable when he heard it, so he could only go to the ground air source starting and the cross-infusion air induction starting program to review and review, which could be regarded as finding something to distract and distract him.
Xu Qing had done ground air source starting and alternating induced air start in Blue Sky Airlines before, but he was not unfamiliar, Xu Qing glanced at FCOM and basically understood the program.
Just when Xu Qing was fascinated, a very slight sound of wanting to jump away sounded, and all kinds of lights in the cockpit dimmed, and there were bursts of exclamations from the cabin behind.
