"Enter the approach point and begin the landing procedure." Knowing in his heart that this was the last chance to land, the pilot became more and more nervous, his mind began to accelerate, his breathing became rapid, and he felt that all he was holding in his palms was sweat.

"Good, you're in the glide track." The landing commander took several deep breaths and cheered up the pilot: "The frontal wind speed is 8 meters per second, now is a good opportunity, pay attention to the undulation of the deck, you can do it." ”

Even the people in other positions in the centralized control room, while ensuring that there were no problems in their work, tried their best to prick up their ears and even secretly look at the monitor of the ship commander, and whether the pilots could land safely had become a major concern for the entire aircraft carrier formation.

The sky became more and more gloomy, the faint rumbling thunder was very dull, and the raindrops the size of beans seemed to fall directly from the sky, washing the entire aircraft carrier formation. The weather is getting worse and worse, although the wind speed suddenly decreases at this moment, and the ups and downs on the deck are not as big as before, but everyone knows very well that this is the last chance for the lone J-15 in the sky to land.

Come on!

In the prayers of all the people, the J-15 glided down to a place two hundred meters away from the stern. At this moment, the wind that had been blowing suddenly stopped strangely, and the undulating deck seemed to freeze there.

"There are 3 seconds left to land!" The landing commander shouted excitedly, the J-15 taxied steadily in the middle of the monitor, this is the most ideal landing route, as long as the ship is successfully landed, it will definitely be able to hook the blocking cable, and success is in sight. But Xia Yu saw that at the stern of the ship, a splash of white waves swirled and fell to the sea. Xia Yu was startled, and couldn't care much more, snatched the intercom in Mu Shaoqing's hand and shouted: "Climb, accelerate climb!" There is turbulence in the stern!! ”

Mu Shaoqing and others, who were still feeling a little angry about Xia Yu's behavior, were shocked when they heard this, the stern turbulence is an air mass formed over the deck of an aircraft carrier, this kind of rotating air mass will pose a great threat to the landing carrier-based aircraft, once it is swept in, the wings of the carrier-based aircraft will lose lift almost immediately, which is undoubtedly a lore for the carrier-based aircraft that is landing, because there is no altitude for the pilot to adjust and change out.

Hearing Xia Yu's shout, the pilot almost instinctively began to climb with afterburner, but it was too late, even though the engine of the J-15 was already roaring with all its might, but still in the eyes of Xia Yu and others, the fuselage suddenly crooked, and then sank, and then the inclined fuselage directly hit the protrusion of the aft deck, and the entire J-15 was broken in two by the huge fireball that exploded, and the wings and the tail of the fuselage fell into the vast sea in the firelight, The first half, including the cockpit, rolled all the way from the stern of the ship to the middle of the flight deck before stopping, and the plane crash ambulances who had been waiting for a long time immediately swarmed up, but the high temperature radiation emitted by the blazing flames made it impossible to approach, and they could only carry high-pressure water cannons and foam sprays to the wreckage of the plane, and everyone hoped for the last possibility, the survival of the pilot.

Mu Shaoqing and Xia Yu had already rushed off the bridge and ran to the deck for the first time, the cold sea breeze made people unable to stand steadily, and the bean-sized raindrops smashed on their faces for a while, but Mu Shaoqing couldn't care about it at all, grabbed the person in charge of the rescue team and shouted: "What's the situation, what about the pilot, have you been rescued?!" ”

"The fire was too big for us to get close. I can't arrange for people to go up until the fire is out, it's too dangerous. The head of the rescue team shouted: "We will do everything we can to rescue them." ”

When Mu Shaoqing heard this, his heart couldn't help sinking, and he and Xia Yu were about to rush to the deck, but they were stopped by the person in charge of the rescue team, and they could only stand at the hatch under the bridge and watch the burning wreckage dozens of meters away. Even though it was raining heavily and the wind was blowing, the unpleasant smell of aviation kerosene still lingered on the deck, and the wreckage crackled and crackled in the flames, which was the scorch and gas explosion that occurred after the power supply and paint on board were burned by thousands of degrees of heat. Because it was not known if any missiles had fallen up and been crushed under the fuselage, and fearing possible detonation, the rescue team prevented any approach until the flames were extinguished.

Soon, the flames were extinguished, revealing the small half of the wreckage that had been burned black, although Mu Shaoqing, Xia Yu and the other pilots of the air crew wanted to go forward to check if their comrades were safe and sound, but they were still stopped, and they could only watch the ambulance personnel dismantle the cockpit canopy that had been cracked to dismantle, and then dragged out the completely powerless figure from the cockpit and put it on the stretcher.

All the pilots nervously watched the doctor on the ship examining their comrades-in-arms, but soon, they saw that the doctor shook his head regretfully, and their hearts suddenly felt sad, Sun Fei and Tian Tian even hugged each other and cried. Even the male pilots, who have always called themselves men, have tears in their eyes at the moment, choking up at the corpse of the comrade-in-arms who can no longer get along with them day and night in the future.

Xia Yu and Mu Shaoqing stood at the front, although they were sad in their hearts, they did not leave tears. Mu Shaoqing has been accustomed to seeing such a parting of life and death in his military career, although he will be sad and sad, but most of the time he can control his tears. Xia Yu, on the other hand, has become tough under the exercise of the starry sky, and can better control his body's reactions, including tears.

In the midst of the raging waves and the bitter sea breeze, under the rumbling thunder and lightning of the clouds, on the undulating deck of the aircraft carrier, in the icy rain, everyone fell silent. Mu Shaoqing took off his military hat, and together with Xia Yu and the others, he solemnly and solemnly saluted the corpse of his comrade-in-arms. All the people behind him, including those in the bridge and the centralized control room, as long as they could see the situation on the deck at this moment, raised their right hands and put their fingers on their temples, and they did not put it down for a long time.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" After the body of the wrecked pilot was carried to the lower hangar by the rescue team, there was a rush of hustle and bustle on the deck. The wreckage of the plane needs to be cleaned up, and it must be done before the weather gets worse. However, this kind of clean-up is not just thrown into the sea, but all the wreckage needs to be collected and sorted out so that it can be checked and studied in the future to see if there is anything that can be improved.

The deck must also be cleaned, not only to clean up the stains left by the burning wreckage, but also to check whether the deck has any damage, whether it will leave traces that will cause trouble for future flights, this is not an easy job, it must be checked 100% carefully, any mistakes and omissions may cause the same serious consequences as today.

However, the cleaning of the deck is a matter of later, and today's wind and waves are too strong, and it is also a great threat to the people on the deck. By the time the ground crew delivered the last piece of wreckage to the lower hangar, the deck of the aircraft carrier was empty, allowing the wind and rain to wash away the previous traces.

In the vast sea, although surrounded by several frigates, the Liaoning, swaying in the waves, looked so heavy and lonely at the moment.
