"Not good!!"

The captain exclaimed.

Raise your finger to the DUS display area on the flight control panel.

"I'll go, what's the situation?"

Tang Xiaoliu's eyebrows condensed, and his expression was surprised.

No alarm!

The captain and co-pilot did not move the throttle pusher.

The result?

Thrust indicators have increased a lot, while parameters such as engine status, compression ratio, and exhaust temperature all change dramatically.

Naturally, the remaining fuel level indication also changed, and the fuel consumption rate increased significantly.

"Damn! This plane is accelerating automatically!"

The co-pilot let out an exclamation.

Wu Jie frowned slightly, and his expression was cold.

Airplanes fly in the air, mainly to overcome air resistance.

The higher the altitude, the thinner the air, the less flight resistance, and at the same time, it is more conducive to the operation of the turbocharged engine.

Therefore, in order to save fuel economically, the aircraft will fly at a constant speed in the stratosphere, which is above 10,000 meters and the air flow is relatively stable.

And different aircraft naturally have different speed ceilings.

Because the faster the speed, the greater the flight resistance, which will form a strong squeezing force on the aircraft, and friction heat, causing the aircraft to get hotter and hotter, and when the speed reaches the speed of sound, it will also produce shock waves, causing the aircraft to tremble violently.

Therefore, aircraft for different purposes will use different materials and designs, and be equipped with engines with different horsepower.

Only military fighters that do not care about fuel consumption and fly at supersonic speeds will adopt a swept wing design, which is made of stainless steel, titanium alloy and other materials stronger than aluminum alloy, and equipped with high-horsepower engines.

Some hypersonic fighters will even deliberately leave a gap of a certain width in the fuselage to facilitate high-altitude and high-speed flight to meet the heating expansion of the fuselage, and apply high-temperature resistant coating materials.

If you want to fly at supersonic speed, give a big throttle, increase the thrust, and easily cross the sound barrier and enter supersonic flight.

Compared with.

Civil aircraft that do not need to fly at supersonic speeds will design the best aerodynamic shape in the subsonic range, with a slender fuselage, lower wings, large aspect ratios, and materials that are as light as possible.

Aluminum alloys are too heavy, as much composite materials as possible, and the engine does not pursue how much thrust is needed, what is needed is thrust-to-weight ratio, fuel consumption rate and reliability, anyway, the lighter the civil aircraft, the better.

And so it goes.

It is subject to the structure of the airframe, the aerodynamic shape and the thrust of the engine.

There is a speed upper limit for the speed of civil aircraft, and after reaching the speed ceiling, the aircraft cannot further accelerate, but will bear a lot of resistance, resulting in a sharp reduction in the life of the structure.

And no matter how much you push the throttle, it doesn't work at all, except for consuming fuel in vain.

In a word.

Military fighters and civil aviation aircraft, because of their different uses, so the design, technology, equipment, etc. are different.

Just like an affordable family car, there is a big difference between a F1 car that is built for competition.

Family cars should consider fuel consumption, so the body should be as light as possible, driven by a low-horsepower engine, and the speed of 120 kilometers per hour should be economical and stable, reliable and easy to drive.

But those supercars, the top F1 cars, are different, they don't care about fuel consumption, they care more about speed and handling, so they use more horsepower engines, more advanced materials and aerodynamic shapes.

At this moment.

The large cargo plane where Wu Jie and others are located is like an affordable car.

The shape and structure of the fuselage are destined to be unable to fly at supersonic speeds, and the faster the speed, the greater the resistance.

And four turbofan engines, even if they increase the thrust to the maximum, will not be able to make the large cargo plane run faster.

It's like a family car, the speed has reached the limit, and it's useless to step on the accelerator!

The engine has so much horsepower, what else can it do?

Moreover, the maximum speed is designed to be 180km/h, and running at this extreme speed is not only ultra-high fuel consumption, but also aggravated engine wear, and it is also very unsafe.

Old drivers who often drive know that the general family car speed is less than 120 kilometers per hour, and it is the most fuel-efficient to maintain a constant speed, and it is relatively safe and controllable, exceeding the speed of 120 kilometers per hour, the higher the speed, the more fierce the fuel consumption.

Therefore.

This large cargo plane, the engine suddenly and inexplicably increased thrust.

Not only did it not increase the speed of the aircraft, but it caused fuel consumption to skyrocket.

It also allows large cargo aircraft to withstand greater flight resistance, which accelerates aircraft wear and structural aging.

So......

Originally, there was not much aviation fuel left, and whether it could fly to the South China Sea or land at Fiery Cross Airport became a problem.

Now that you are still flying with such high fuel consumption, it is naturally hopeless, and it would be nice to fly over the Indo-Duk Ocean and reach near the Strait of Malacca.

Now, it's really worse.

Tang Xiao turned his head to look at Wu Jie, and said very angrily:

"It must be that country M is playing tricks, through the secret door program, remotely controlled this plane, so that the engine automatically accelerated, increased fuel consumption, so that we could not fly to Fiery Cross Airport at all!"

The corners of Wu Jie's lips raised slightly, and he smiled lightly.

I have long heard that country M is very insidious.

The high-end equipment they export, whether it is military warships, warplanes and submarines, or civilian aircraft and ship equipment, is to prevent it from falling into the hands of the enemy, to prevent allies from mutiny, and to spy on others......

They leave secret doors in software programs, access data without the user's knowledge, intervene remotely if necessary, gain control without the user's consent, or simply disrupt the shutdown.

There was once a country that bought fighter planes from country M and wanted to launch an air attack on another country, but country M did not agree, and in order to prevent the country from doing anything recklessly, it directly shut down the equipment remotely through the secret door program.

As a direct result, the advanced fighters purchased by the country at a huge cost have been collectively lying on their stomachs, and they cannot start their engines at all, let alone fire control, radar, communications, electronic countermeasures, and other equipment, which cannot be turned on, so how can they be used?

It is conceivable that this would be in wartime, if it was at war with country M......

How dangerous would that be?

After the fighter plane took off, suddenly the engine was automatically shut down, and the ejection system could not be started.

In addition, even if you don't secretly do it, it's hard to guarantee that you won't eavesdrop and track and locate it secretly!

That's why.

Countries that have the ability to manufacture airplanes will use domestically produced aircraft as high-level special planes.

This is not only to demonstrate the strength of the country, but also to ensure the safety of flights and secrets.

And now.

In this large cargo plane manufactured by country M, the four engines suddenly and inexplicably increased fuel consumption.

There is no fault alarm, no human operation, except that someone is remotely and secretly broken, what else can be the reason?

Maybe.

Fortunately, the other party did not directly shut down the engine.

There was no secret fault for the flight control system, so that the large cargo plane immediately lost control and crashed.

Obviously.

The other party wanted to embarrass Wu Jie and others, but he didn't want to be too obvious.

Of course, maybe it's a small test to see if you can control the engine remotely.

After success, further steps are taken.

But no matter what......

This large cargo plane was designed and developed by country M.

There are millions of parts on the whole machine, hundreds of systems, large and small.

Whether there is a secret door or not, and how useful it is, no one on this plane can know.

It's like going to a mobile phone store with a bad reputation and buying a second-hand mobile phone, who knows if you have ever done it?

If you go to the second-hand market, people who don't know anything can know if it's an accident car?

And now the question is......

It is already known that country M is secretly doing evil, but it has no evidence.

It's just that the engine thrust has increased and the fuel consumption has increased, can it be proved that it is the aircraft manufacturer of country M that is making a mistake in the long distance?

There is no evidence, no empty evidence.

If you call the aircraft manufacturer of country M now, you will definitely be ridiculed severely.

"Aren't you known as an ancient civilization? Isn't the Chinese nation excellent?"

"Why has it been impossible to handle advanced, reliable, and affordable large civil aircraft?"

"If you don't know how to fly and technology, if you take the plane of our country M, don't pretend to understand and talk nonsense without evidence!"

"The thrust of the engine has increased, it must be a bunch of you technical idiots who are operating blindly!"

......

In a word.

Without ironclad evidence, it can only be self-inflicted.

So at this moment, not only Tang Xiao, but Wu Jie also wanted to hurry up and make a truly domestic, advanced, powerful and reliable large civil aircraft.

In fact, with the current domestic scientific and technological and industrial strength, it is not difficult to develop and produce large civil aircraft, but the cost performance is annoying.

Even if the technical parameters look exactly the same, when you use it, you will find that the fuel consumption is higher than others, and the performance is not stable enough.

Even if everything is the same, if you want to sell it on a real scale, you have to obtain an airworthiness certificate, and all kinds of difficulties in developed countries are not to issue certificates, and you can't sell them if you want to.

In addition, there are many core components and equipment such as engine systems, avionics systems, and hydraulic systems, and there is indeed a big gap in domestic goods.

As a result, Huaxia, which was able to develop a strategic transport aircraft for military use, was unable to develop a large civilian passenger aircraft with market competitiveness.

So much so that the planes that ordinary people travel on, except for Airbus is Boeing, what A320, A330, B737, B787, etc., etc., are almost monopolies.

Of course.

The Chinese people have long been ashamed and brave, and have been making continuous efforts, and sooner or later the domestic civil aircraft will be able to catch up with the world's first-class.

But now......

What to do?

After the captain disconnected the autopilot, various measures had been taken, and the four engines just did not listen.

Disconnect satellite navigation, radio communications, etc., in an attempt to cut off someone else's covert operation of the aircraft.

Disconnect the electronic fuel supply system and restart the engine at high altitude......

The operation is as fierce as a tiger, and the fuel consumption is the same!

The four engines, still at maximum thrust, could not be reduced at all.

It's like a moving car.

The driver doesn't step on the accelerator, and as a result, the engine is humming and roaring, working at maximum power.

"No! If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to fly to the Strait of Malacca!"

"And the engine is overloaded for too long, and it's easy to break down and stop!"

"The weight of the plane is too large, and if you turn off some of the engines, the thrust will not be enough, and it will cause a stall crash!"

......

The captain was in a hurry.

Even though he has excellent professional qualities, he can only fly airplanes and does not know how to maintain them.

At this altitude of 10,000 meters, it is impossible to stop a large cargo plane for maintenance.

If you slow down, you can easily stall and crash.

Moreover, the aircraft is an extremely large and complex industrial integrated equipment, with too many parts and components with different functions.

In fact, the professional maintenance team of the support base of many civil aviation enterprises can only do routine maintenance.

The real disassembly and overhaul can only be handed over to the unit designated by the manufacturer.

In other words.

The problems that this large cargo plane has now cannot be solved at all.

"Brother Jie, now they are just overloading the engine and increasing fuel consumption! Maybe next, the cargo plane will inexplicably automatically drain fuel, suddenly dive, and the engine stops!"

"Anyway, let us crash into this Indo-Du Ocean, the black box fell into the bottom of the sea at a depth of several thousand meters, and it can't be salvaged at all, and there is no proof of death, so they can play tricks, saying that the crash has nothing to do with their country M, after all, they didn't send fighters to shoot us down!"

"So, in my opinion, we should start preparing for a forced landing at sea!"

Tang Xiao looked at Wu Jie with burning eyes.

Forced landing at sea, there is no choice!

The control of this large cargo plane is no longer in the hands of the flight crew.

All the lives on the plane are controlled remotely.

And this air crisis is really wave after wave.

First, the fighter planes of country M flaunted their might and showed off their strength, and then they were denied entry into India's airspace.

Now it's even more powerful.

It was secretly damaged, and the remote control made the fuel consumption of the cargo plane skyrocket.

With this trend, they are really satisfied with the destruction of this cargo plane!

"Forced landing at sea...... Okay, you go and get ready, I'm here to watch!"

Wu Jie's tone was flat, and his expression was indifferent and calm.

There was no panic, no panic.

Wu Jie has already been on a par with Padin Chayol, and he has already been tough with country M.

If they do not dare to take force measures on the face and do not play some conspiracy in private, then will not they be given the honor of 'the world's number one hooligan' in vain?

Brother Ke is possessed by the system, are you still afraid that they will play tricks?

Come and don't be rude!

Now that they have all made a new move, how can Wu Jie not fight back?

Out of politeness, Wu Jie dropped the two electronic pulse bombs that had been kept by the system on his behalf.

Let country M taste what is a dimensionality reduction strike......
