Chapter 194: Emergency Landing
Betty and the rest of the crew were also stunned.
The bald policeman shook his eyelids, and even wondered if Gu Ji would be an accomplice of the man in sunglasses.
Even the man in sunglasses looked at his silhouette with interest, "Hey! Aren't you afraid of death, old man? β
Gu Ji didn't pay attention to him.
Instead, while looking at the watch, I looked back at Engine 1 through the small oval window.
He chose to sit here, not to subdue the man in sunglasses.
Now that he knows the purpose of the other party, it means that before the plane successfully lands in Sinaloa, the passengers and crew of the entire flight are safe for the time being, as long as they don't rush him.
In contrast, the emergency landing caused by the failure of the twin engines is the most dangerous and the most urgent difficulty for him to solve.
The two are like the main contradiction and the secondary contradiction in a high school politics textbook.
That's why the game system defines this level as an accident.
So Gu Ji chose to sit here, just so that he could rush into the cabin to help at the first time when the plane had an accident.
Seeing that he was completely ignored, the corners of the man in sunglasses twitched twice, I don't know whether he was shocked or angry, but he didn't have a seizure after all, but sat down quietly and fastened his seat belt.
Betty stroked her proud chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the terrorists did not act aggressively, they had hope of saving the flight, so they instructed the three crew members in economy class to take care of the passengers, and then went to the cabin, which should have contacted the captain or the ground to ask for anti-hijacking assistance.
The bald policeman chose to sit behind Gu Ji, across an aisle from the man in sunglasses on the right, to ensure that he could keep an eye on the two of them at the same time.
I didn't think about it, but less than a minute passed.
Betty hurriedly came back and called the police away, and asked the bat to keep an eye on Gu Ji and the man in sunglasses.
It should be connected to the ground.
Gu Ji glanced at his watch, and there was only one minute left in the countdown.
The plane was still tilting and turning, and the sky outside the window was like an ethereal sapphire crystal, and a few thin patches of mist gently rippled below, and there was no trace of birds at all.
This is also what he preferentially inferred based on the cause of the historical double-engine failure air crash: the flock of birds hit!
Theoretically, the take-off, climb, descent, approach and landing phases of aircraft are the most prone to bird strikes, according to accident statistics, more than 90% of bird strikes occur in the airspace of airports and near airports, 50% occur in airspace below 30 meters, but 1% still occur at an altitude of more than 760 meters.
For example, in 13 years, Air China was hit by a bird at high altitude, such as the Boeing 737 flight of Swoop 312 hit a flock of geese during the flight.
Now the cruising altitude of the aircraft should be about 8800 meters, and the people who can fly at this altitude are basically large birds, and a 7-kilogram wild goose hits the plane at a speed of 960 kilometers per hour, and its impact force will reach 144 tons, which will immediately cause the plane to be destroyed and killed!
"It doesn't seem to be an external factor......
If it is really a flock of birds, according to the development of his round of rough interference accident line, the turning trajectory of the two routes is different, wouldn't he have successfully avoided the impact and completed the mission goal?
Gu Jicai didn't believe that the system would set the difficulty of the red level so low.
The countdown ends.
He counted a second, two seconds in his heart, until the fourth second, he vaguely felt that his body began to shift, and at the same time, the other passengers in the cabin also noticed that something was wrong, a strong feeling of weightlessness started from the sour bladder, all the way to the scalp, his feet and buttocks were separated from the seat, and his stomach was strangled by the seat belt.
At that moment, it was as if the entire space froze.
The freckled woman's golden ponytail first swung to the right, then gradually upwards and straightened, and the drinks, books, computers, and even the blankets covering her body on the small table all floated into the air, and were crushed against the roof of the airstrip with a thunderclapping sound.
Buzzββ!
The plane tilted and fell headlong on the ground!
"Ahββ!h
"Help!"
"Gross! Allah! The plane is going to crash! The plane is going to crash!
β
β¦β¦
After a few seconds of extreme panic, the front and rear of the cabin screamed at the same time, the Middle Eastern curly retched, and took the initiative to reach out and grab the seat belt, just at the moment when the lock was broken, his body floated into the air, like a paddle board carried by a huge wave, "bang", hit the roof of the cabin shed.
"Sir! Mr!
β
"Fasten your seatbelts, everyone! Get down! Grab the seat in front of you! β
"Margaret! Don't go over!
β
Unexpectedly, the blonde stewardess also made the same choice as last week, and as soon as she saw the danger of curly hair, she decisively left the safety seat and wanted to reach out to pull him.
But this round of the plane dived and fell even more terrifying than before.
The whole fuselage seemed to be flipped in a spiral, Margaret's arm strength was not enough to support her to hold on to the seat, and she was thrown out by the huge acceleration inertia, and before she could react, she crashed into the window on the side of the cabin, and blood even splattered on the front of the cabin.
"Even, even buy Karma!
β
"Ahh
"God! This must be insane! Lose your marbles! β
"Seven-second, eight-second, nine-second ......"
Compared with the frightened and panicked passengers, Gu Ji was the calmest one, he was holding the cabin wall in front of him with both hands, his face was flushed, and he was silently thinking about the time of the fall in his heart.
Unexpectedly, even if he pulled the terrorists to the surface of supervision this round, it still did not change the result.
More than ten seconds passed, and the captain and co-pilot did not intervene at all.
He turned his head.
It was found that the man in sunglasses also grabbed the seat in a panic to fight against weightlessness.
Isn't it the terrorist's cause?
Just as Gu Ji was analyzing whether the accomplice of the man in sunglasses had already sneaked into the cabin, "hum", the plane suddenly began to slow down, deflect and level, and gradually lift upward.
Under the action of the huge climbing force, things kept falling, all the luggage racks above the cabin were knocked open, the lights flickered on and off, and terrifying sparks burst out, luggage, cosmetics, and scattered flowers like a goddess, and the ground was a mess, full of leftovers, garbage and blood, and motionless people whose lives and deaths were unknown.
Could it be that this round of work has been in vain?
"!"
Gu Ji's eyes sharpened, and he burst out of his teeth with a foul word, it's a big deal!
Taking advantage of the fuselage leveling, he decisively removed the seat belt, grabbed the door frame and rushed into the business class.
Compared with the economy class, the business class due to the small number of personnel, the seats are wide and soft, and the passengers are almost not injured, but unlike last week, the purser Betty and the bald policeman fell to the ground without knowing the life and death.
Now only the young and beautiful black-haired first-class flight attendant of FAT is left, and she is also a little stunned when she sees Gu Ji appear:
"Sir! Please get back to your seat right away! This is very dangerous! β
"I, my name is Yasen! If you know some flight knowledge, the plane suddenly dived and fell, there must be something wrong in the cab, please contact the captain immediately, I can help! β
Gu Ji grabbed the business seat sofas on both sides of the aisle with both hands, step by step, shouting and walking, like a mountaineer climbing the peak and being the last sprint.
This difficulty is even more exaggerated than the wreck of the anchor at the cruise ship level.
Fortunately, his strength has not been weakened, and with the physique of "Yasen", he has good lower limbs, waist, abdomen and core muscles, and it is relatively easy to stabilize the center of gravity.
The black-haired flight attendant pursed her red lips and seemed to know that something was wrong with the plane.
But now that both the purser and the policeman are unconscious, she doesn't dare to make a rash decision.
Just as she hesitated.
The fuselage suddenly began to shake violently, and there was a "bang-bang" sound on the right side, and the plane suddenly lost its ability to climb, and swayed and fell from side to side again.
"It's engine No. 1 on the right that is damaged! Come on! No time! β
"You come with me!"
The moment she saw the billowing black smoke through the window, the black-haired stewardess finally made up her mind, took off her seat belt, leaned on the cabin wall to the cockpit door, and pressed the intercom button: "Mr. Co-pilot, there is a Mr. Yasen outside the door who can fly, and he wants to enter the cockpit to help, is it okay?" β
"Let him in!"
Hearing the affirmation in the loudspeaker, the black-haired stewardess quickly pressed the password, and then the hatch was thrown open by inertia with a "boom", and Gu Ji quickly rushed in.
But the scene in front of him made his hole shrink suddenly.
I saw that in the cockpit, food was spilled all over the ground, and the flight control was full of blood, and a thin young co-pilot wearing a white shirt with half sleeves and three bars on his shoulders was struggling to grasp the main pilot's control stick while holding the aviation map manual between his legs, and his forehead was full of sweat.
The middle-aged captain collapsed under the driver's seat, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and was already a dead body.
"How could the captain ......"
"You know how to fly?"
Unexpectedly, the co-pilot did not give him a chance to ask, but urgently asked about his level ability as soon as he came up.
Gu Ji knows that this is a very critical time, and he will not drag his feet.
"Learned! Especially the flight course! β
"That's great! My name is Bolton and the map is for you! Keep an eye on the heading gyroscope, navigate manually, and verbally broadcast to me every half minute! β
The co-pilot threw the map book at him with a free hand.
Gu Ji hurriedly sat in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt.
When he looked at the flight console, he understood why Bolton asked him to manually navigate, only to see that the radar interface of the center console displayed a red line of "no signal" warning, not only that, but the Boeing-7M8 equipped with two GPS antennas and three NAV navigation stations and three communication stations were also red lights.
In other words, the aircraft has completely lost its positioning, navigation and communication capabilities!
How so?
Civil airliners are designed with extreme situations in mind, so they are equipped with multiple systems, even if one fails, the other can be used as a backup.
But now all the radar positioning and communication on the plane have failed, which really makes him feel unbelievable.
Even if the engine is turned off and the generator stops, the aircraft can still be powered by batteries, and when the main battery fails, there is a backup battery, so there is no "double failure" that will affect the use of communication and navigation.
"Soon after the captain left the cab, the aircraft's communications, radar, and radiolocation suddenly all failed, I checked the breaker and restored it, but there was still no response, the captain suspected that this might be a terrorist's hand, so he manually took over the control and turned to Mazatlan, Mexico......"
Bolton explained the damage process in just a few words.
Gu Ji suddenly understood.
After the captain manually operated the control stick to steer, he suddenly died halfway, and the body pressed against the control stick, forcing the horizontal tail elevator to deflect downward, which in turn caused the plane to dive and fall.
Since it occurs during a turn, the captain's corpse will follow the deflection, further affecting the joystick.
You must know that the main and co-pilot joysticks of the Boeing aircraft are linked, that is, as long as the main pilot is offset, the co-pilot will also move.
Therefore, in order to avoid conflicts, the handover of control rights requires the driver to shout "handover control", and the other pilot shouts "handover control", and then the former repeats the first sentence again before it is completed, and the process is somewhat similar to the offside of SWAT tactical personnel.
This 1-2-1 dialogue is meant to ensure absolute safety.
And when encountering an emergency, such as the current situation, it can only be seen who has more strength.
Bolton was able to remove the main pilot's seat belt and push the captain's body away from the rudder in a dozen seconds, which was already considered a quick reaction.
Gu Ji frowned slightly.
There is no problem with the power system, except for the most important communication, radio, and radar failures.
This is so suspicious.
Because several systems are not in one location.
Even if the communication fails, it will not affect the GPS positioning, unless the entire avionics system is burned out, such as being cracked by lightning, but the communication and oxygen supply system in the cabin can still be used, including lighting, controlling the fall of the oxygen mask, recovery, etc.
It seems that as the captain judged, this is definitely man-made!
Except for the man in sunglasses.
There must also be a person who is responsible for damaging avionics navigation and positioning, communications, and poisoning the captain!
One of the reasons why the other party does this;
It was supposed to make the plane "disappear".
As long as the radiolocation is damaged, the plane will completely lose contact with the ground, and the airlines will not be able to determine the specific location of the aircraft, so they can only find it with the naked eye through military satellites or additional reconnaissance aircraft.
At the same time, cutting off communication can also prevent the crew members from communicating with each other on the ground and transmitting intelligence information to the government and police.
This way, as long as the plane lands normally in Sinaloa.
The gang of drug dealers will be able to find the airliner as soon as possible, and by the time Mexican or Panamanian rescue forces arrive, the daylily will already be cold.
Source change appγ
It's just that Gu Ji doesn't understand.
It's enough to cut off communications and radio, so why kill the captain?
You must know that once the plane loses its captain, it is difficult for the co-pilot to land safely when the navigation system is damaged, not to mention that there will be a "double engine failure" at the moment.
"Engine No. 1 on the right side of the plane stopped running, and engine No. 2 on the left side also failed, in order to avoid further engine damage, I had to adjust engine No. 2 to a slow parking position, reduce the flight altitude, and now we have to find the nearest airport for a forced landing before engine No. 2 fails......
"Boom ββ!"
Just as Bolton was urging Gu Ji, there was a loud bang on the left wing again, and then the plane completely lost power and fell faster!
Bolton stared at the on-board computer as it lit up the red light symbolizing danger and warning, until the sweat on his forehead slipped into his eye sockets, and he instinctively blinked his eyes, as if he had just come to life, "God, it's the double failure!"
Yasen, take QRH to check it out now! β
QRH is a manual for quick checks for twin engine failures.
Gu Ji knew that the "hellish difficulty" had only really begun at this moment, and after answering, he immediately found the manual according to the position of Bolton's finger.
Now he is like a helper for candidates in the open-book exam.
While staring at the flight altitude, heading, wind direction, and calculating position information, you can quickly flip through the QRH manual.
"If there is sufficient fuel, the engine ignition mode can be selected to restart the engine......"
"I tried, but no! Switch! β
Before Gu could finish reading, Bolton vetoed it.
He continued rummaging.
"If engine re-ignition cannot be attempted, such as engine damage, fly at green point speed, maintaining an optimal lift-to-drag ratio to maximize the remaining time and flight distance for cabin preparation."
"Where we are now."
"Location, location, location......"
Gu Ji's mouth repeated silently, his eyes were like a scanner, quickly flashing back and forth from the computer data and the paper map, "318, San Luis Poto west-northwest, heading 030, according to the current speed and heading calculation, we should land at Torreon Airport!" β
Thanks to the heading mark bonus, in just a few seconds, he said the compass power, the current reference city bearing, heading and other key data.
San Luis PotosΓ is a city in central Mexico, located less than 200 kilometers from Mazatlan, Sinaloa.
According to the current course, the nearest airport is Torreon, 140 km away, northbound.
Can be fast.
Gu Ji looked at the current height again, and his gaze changed.
"No, Bolton, with the current altitude and green dot speed, we only have about 11 minutes to prepare, we can't get to Torreon, we can only look for the mountains, and make an emergency landing!
