Chapter 115: The Second Flame Goes Out
It was also a 737, and the twin engines had high vibration values when they were in the icing area, but there was no engine stalling at that time. Instead, after getting out of the icy area, the engine suddenly stopped. After the pilot tried to restart the engine, it was still unsuccessful. In the end, the plane was flown back to the airport by the pilot and landed safely.
Of course, all this is based on the premise that the crew members are sound, and now there are only two second officers on the plane, if the failure of the first few double-engines happens again, Xu Qing can complete the landing alone without the captain, and AOC has a big question mark in his heart.
"Can you get out of the icy zone in time now?" The company asked.
"You can go out in ten minutes at most, and now the vibration value is stable at 3.5." Xu Qing replied.
"Don't take it lightly, I'll find an instructor to come over later, if you have any questions, you can contact us at any time!" Like Dongfang 9517 before, Blue Airlines was also not at ease, and hurriedly found someone who was an expert to come over to Xu Qing as a consultant.
"If the captain wakes up, contact us immediately!" The people of the company instructed again.
After Xu Qing communicated some details with the company's people, he hung up the satellite phone.
After Xu Qing conveyed the intention of diversion to the control, he took advantage of this time out of the icy area to communicate with Wang Jianya about the issue of manipulation.
The current situation is that although Wang Qianya's level is higher than Xu Qing. But he admitted frankly that if it were him in the emergency just now, he would think that he was inferior to Xu Qing.
Moreover, the biggest problem now, apart from the engine, is the landing. The two of them exchanged their landing times, and Xu Qing turned out to be more than Wang Qianya.
This is because the first level of the co-pilot and the second level of the co-pilot only need to go through the time, and there is no need to look at the number of landings, and only the third level of the co-pilot needs to see the landing.
Xu Qing's current record of effective landing is actually zero, because all his landing is flying with Instructor Chang at the student stage. The student stage is not allowed to record the landing, and only the landing at the co-pilot level is effective.
However, now it is more about the real landing, not the effective landing.
Xu Qing has already remembered more than a dozen times, and Wang Duiya has not even ten times, his master does not take him at all, and can only occasionally rub to the ground.
After the two communicated, they decided not to change seats for a while, and Xu Qing was still more comfortable in the right seat. After the captain was removed for a while, Wang Duya sat in the left seat.
It didn't take long for the flight crew to hear that no one responded after the radio doctor and the pilot. Fortunately, the passengers have even experienced the engine explosion, and their mental endurance is already quite strong, after the broadcast, although no one responded, but no one had an overreaction.
As we get closer to the outlet, the airflow becomes more and more stable, and there has been no significant turbulence for some time. When Xu Qing communicated with the company just now, the company mentioned that the high vibration value of the engine has the hidden danger of stalling. Even if it is not higher than 4 now, 3.5 is already on the high side, so it is still necessary to pay more attention and be vigilant.
Therefore, without waiting for the complete outburst, Xu Qing notified the front cabin crew dining car to block the front cabin aisle, closed the curtain, let the safety officer guard, and quickly moved the captain out of the cockpit, so that Wang Qianya could fulfill his responsibilities earlier.
The purser is okay, after all, he is senior and well-informed. The front cabin attendant who cooperated with her was not good, and when she helped carry the captain out, her hands were shaking, and she almost fell off the captain unintentionally.
Xu Qing could see that they were under a lot of pressure now, and the string in their brains could break at any time. But in fact, he is the most stressed on this plane, and he is also afraid, but he does not dare to show it, otherwise, the other people on the plane will also be affected.
"Blue 9441, is it out of the ice now?" The control was not at the bottom of his heart, so he asked Xu Qing about his situation in a few minutes. Not only the gas condition, but also the state of the engine, and the emotions of the passengers were all asked.
Looking at the water vapor that had become thinner and thinner, Xu Qing could even see the leaking sunlight through some gaps, indicating that it was not far away.
"Blue 9441, I will be able to come out soon, and you will command me to alternate to W City in a while!"
"If you fly 10 nautical miles further now, I will guide you to continue to turn right and descend, and I will help you convey your intention to alternate landing." Control Road.
Within a few minutes of 10 nautical miles, Xu Qing saw that there was no moisture outside, and the dazzling sunlight was shining on the faces of Xu Qing and Wang Qianya, who had never been so eager for sunlight.
Out of the icy area, Xu Qing and Wang Qianya were both very excited, which meant that a major hidden danger was eliminated. It's just that Xu Qing saw that the vibration value of the engine slowly rose to 3.9, which made Xu Qing a little worried.
"Blue 9441, it's out of the icy area, can I turn right and descend now?" Xu Qing asked, he was in a hurry to land now, and if he stayed on it for one more minute, there would be more danger.
"Blue 9441, you can turn right to fly to 310, 6900 at altitude!" Regulatory Channel.
"Heading 310, 6900 at altitude, received, blue 9441!"
Xu Qinghang chose to turn right to 310, and the MCP board was adjusted to the foot and began to descend.
I don't know why, the vibration value of the engine began to fluctuate weirdly up and down, back and forth between 3.8 and 4.1. When the vibration value is maintained very well in the icing area, how can it come out on the contrary, the vibration value becomes so carious.
"Is this okay?" Wang Qianya also found an abnormality in the vibration value, and asked Xu Qing with some concern. Invisibly, Wang Qianya has only Xu Qing's horse.
Xu Qing's face was solemn, he tried to start receiving the throttle of the second shot, anyway, it is down now, it doesn't matter if it goes down fast or slowly, if you charge more, you can go down faster!
Xu Qing did this because he remembered that in the "High Engine Vibration Value" checklist, if the vibration value has not recovered below 4 after the previous throttle subtraction operation, at this time, it is the same as engine surge, and the throttle that affects a shot needs to be closed until the indication is normal or the throttle is closed.
Slowly close the throttle, but the vibration value is still going its own way, still fluctuating around 4, what is the throttle, and where it seems to have a great impact on the vibration value.
This is not a good sign, which means that it is very likely that even if they receive a slow train, the vibration will still continue, and Xu Qing and the others seem to have entered a dead end.
Xu Qing was extremely irritable in his heart, isn't this a situation of waiting for death, what they can do now is only pray, pray that the engine will not deteriorate further before it hits the ground?
This is simply ridiculous and pathetic!
Wang Jianya also found that their situation was very bad now, but he watched Xu Qing receive the accelerator to the slow car, but the vibration value was completely unmoved.
The end of the first shot is still vivid!
"Shall we change the alternate landing field, descend as soon as possible, and go directly to the nearest airport?" Wang Qianya pointed to an airport less than 50 nautical miles in front of them, which was literally the closest, the closest airport to Xu Qing and them.
Xu Qing: Now their height is enough to descend without even circling down!
Wang Jianya's mind is clear to him, the situation of the second hair is very unstable now, when is the "burp", or the kind of "burp" that can't wake up, then it is likely to be their turn to burp.
For now, it is better to seize all the time, while the engine can still provide power, and landing in the shortest possible time is the best choice.
Xu Qing knew that the runway at this airport was a short and narrow runway, only more than 2,000 meters, and the width was also narrow, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of landing in the case of a single engine.
We can't just think about the engine, but also whether it can fall. Suddenly, Xu Qing fell into a dilemma again!
"Let's take a look at the Engine Failure checklist and ...... Air Start checklist!" Xu Qing spit out this sentence with difficulty, he was ready for the second shot to fail.
Wang Qianya's face turned pale, Xu Qing had already begun to prepare for the last step, but he really didn't dare to think about this step!
"Let's ask the company!" The current situation is difficult to make a decision with Xu Qing's technical level, and he remembers that the company is already looking for instructors, so it is better to ask the instructors and accept all possible help.
Xu Qing was just about to turn on the satellite phone option on the CDU, and at this moment, the entire cockpit seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, so quiet that people were a little scared.
Why is it quiet? Because there's no noise!
Why is there no noise? Because the engine is off!
That's right, Xu Qing and Wang Jianya could distinguish the sound of the engine turning off at the first time, and without the whistling sound of the engine, the cockpit was much quieter.
However, Xu Qing didn't want this silence at all!
This is, Wang Duanya's face is completely white, the kind of white without blood, and what they are most worried about has happened!
Engine No. 2...... Flameout!
This means that now Xu Qing and the others have lost power, and an iron lump of tens of tons is gliding upward!
"I ...... I ...... "Wang Duanya's tongue is no longer obedient, and I am halfway through, and I will not come out with a word."
Xu Qing didn't go anywhere yet, his forehead was like pouring a basin of cold water, flowing down his cheeks, and his hand that had been holding the steering wheel couldn't stop trembling.
His tongue was already stiff, and he seemed to have lost the ability to speak. He was like a drowning man, trying to grasp the last straw, but when he really grasped it, he found that it was really a straw, and his fate still did not change.
Xu Qing swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva hard, his movements were hard and exaggerated, he was really like a drowning person, even if he couldn't stop sinking, he was still struggling.
Wang Wanya's eyes were empty and blank, and he had almost given up hope. But in the blur, he vaguely saw a hand grabbing him and grabbing him by the neckline.
The picture is clear, it is Xu Qing's distorted but still resolute face!
"Let's do air starts!"
