144. Eyewitness
Captain Chen's words made Nie Haiyang's breath stagnate.
"What do you mean? They've been there years ago...... What is that? ”
Captain Chen fell into memory.
"At that time, I was still an apprentice, and I flew with the old captain from Gyeonghoku to Siberia.
At that time, the plane was cruising smoothly at 35,000 feet, and the old captain was teaching me some operating experience. Flying and flying, suddenly there was an altitude report from the radio altimeter - the altimeter showed that we were only 2,500 feet above the ground, and in an instant it had dropped more than 30,000 feet. ”
"Broken watch?"
"Not ......"
Du Mingyue, a former major general of the Air Force, interjected and explained: "False alarms at flight altitude are a common occurrence, because the principle of altimeter altitude testing is that the aircraft emits radio waves downward, and then judges the altitude based on the echoes reflected back." Therefore, if there are other aircraft flying below and blocking the radio waves, it will cause altitude miscalculation. ”
"Yes, so the old captain was not in a hurry at that time, he directly turned on the TCAS answering machine to call the other party, as long as the other party gave a high response, we can rule out the crisis state."
"But...... No response. ”
Not only did there be no response, but the altitude shown on the altimeter became smaller and smaller. From 2500 to 2000 feet, then fifteen hundred, one thousand feet......"
The old captain immediately contacted the air traffic control, but the air traffic control confirmed that there were absolutely no other aircraft nearby at that time.
"Can the altimeter still be in the weird alarm, 800 feet, 500 feet ......"
The old captain made a bold decision on the spot. He turned the plane around so I could see what was underneath it with my naked eye. ”
And then ...... I saw it. ”
"A silver metal ball reflecting the sun's rays, flying perpendicular to us at exactly the same speed, disappeared into the sea of clouds at least 5-7 times our speed as soon as we made the turn, without making a sound...... Don't laugh, I'm vouching for my character, and I'm not the only one who saw this. ”
In the face of Nie Haiyang's distrust, Captain Chen directly called a few colleagues.
The colleague patted his chest and promised: "I also saw a similar one later, which was at Xiaoshan Airport in Hangzhou, in 2010, and it was also a glowing metal ball."
I was hovering in the sky and saw that the point of light, with incredible speed and maneuverability, made a right-angle turn in the sky, and climbed several kilometers in an instant, without making a sound.
No engines, no sonic booms. It's like a pure speck of light on glass, floating in the sky, moving from time to time.
And then...... It suddenly pierced the sky! Leaving a white dividing line, it's like a crack in the sky! The sky was dark and I remember it vividly.
Many people saw it that day, which directly led to the blockade of the airport, and a large number of flights were diverted to Nimbo and Wuxi. ”
"I haven't seen it in seven years...... But a good brother of mine took off from Wulumuqi, and he saw it as soon as he took off, about three or four years ago, but it was not quite what you described. ”
What he saw in the air was a triangular lattice of three points of light, which should be the three dots now suspended over the Mariana Trench.
The three dots occasionally moved, up and down as if teleporting at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to identify, as described by the previous brother, ignoring air resistance, no sonic boom, no engine sound. ”
"It's the same degree, last year, but what I saw was a glowing prismatic pillar."
"Chengdu Qingbaijiang, I saw a train running in the clouds."
Nie Haiyang was dumbfounded.
"Hey Mingyue, they are still serious about the play, you, the old military pilot who has been flying for decades, still don't you poke them?"
But Du Mingyue didn't say a word.
The attitude of his lover made Nie Haiyang a little panicked.
"For specific situations, we can radio the captains in other areas and ask them to tell them about their sightings...... In fact, in our aviation circles, there are many rumors about this, and the company even sent us a mission directly in a few years. ”
"What's the mission?"
"Five years ago, we at China Eastern Airlines asked the captain to carry a camera with him and keep an eye out for shooting some strangely shaped flying objects. At that time, someone took a photo, and received a special compliment, and the salary increase came, which made us all greedy. ”
"I know a master who has been flying for 30 years, and he flies the North Pole line, and he often has to pass over the North Pole. He said he had seen it at least three times......
The first two times were balls, and the third time was a bit like a train in the Qingbai River.
It was a very long flying machine, a bit like a bullet high-speed train, with a very special light every few meters, and when the light reached its extreme, it suddenly disappeared. ”
"I've heard people talk about what you're talking about!"
Several people chatted about it, which made Nie Haiyang more and more confused.
It was as if these people had actually adapted to the existence of these strange flying objects for a long time, and as an ordinary person, he didn't even know anything, and he even had time to doubt the three views of what he saw and heard in front of him.
It's not that I'm shocked that they may be alien civilizations, after all, I've already seen red dogs and ghouls...... Instead, he was shocked that he seemed to live in two worlds with these people, separated by a thick barrier.
Sha Xiaomo next to her didn't care so much, her eyes were brilliant when she listened, the little girl was at the age of being curious about everything, and after listening to it, she had a little longing for the sky.
She wanted to be a captain.
