Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

Chapter 123 Who is the Peak at the End of the Sky Road? (Please subscribe!)
In the air, Rescue One Helicopter.

When approaching runway 9200 from Lantian 03, the co-pilot had already steered the helicopter close.However, the 737 in front of him suddenly changed its course at a very low altitude, and seemed to have begun to turn to the three sides of runway 21, which made the co-pilot very puzzled.

"Master, what kind of flying method is this?" The co-pilot asked with question marks all over his head: "Isn't he flying towards runway 03? Why did he turn around again? It's a bit like doing visual landing and landing. Ups and downs, where did he land?"

Chen Huaxin frowned. The procedures of the fixed-wing aircraft are completely different from their helicopters. It is normal for the co-pilot not to understand.However, Chen Huaxin understood somewhat: "He should be flying a visual circle approach, but does Yulong Airport have a visual circle approach procedure, how can I remember it?"

Although their general aviation and large-scale transportation airlines are both under the jurisdiction of the Civil Aviation Administration, their operating rules are completely different.For example, general aviation belongs to Department 135, while Blue Sky Airlines belongs to Department 121. There is a big difference between the two.Therefore, although Chen Huaxin is already the captain, he is not sure.

"Master, I can't understand his procedure, but it seems to be flying normally. What's the reason for us to come here in a hurry?" The co-pilot looked at Xu Cang's plane, but couldn't see any obvious abnormalities.

They tuned the radio frequency to the control tower of Yulong Airport, and there was no communication content in it under monitoring. This is not at all like the radio that an airplane should have when it encounters an emergency.

It can only be said that they came a little late, and they missed the moment when Xu Cang entered the interior of the storm.When they came over, Xu Cang had already started to organize the approach, and there was indeed no obvious abnormality.

"Everything is normal?" Chen Huaxin turned towards the 737 and said, "I saw some faint black smoke behind him, is there any problem? Look, the plane is about to land anyway. Once the plane lands safely, the mission will be considered." When we're done, let's go."

"Hmm!" The co-pilot just nodded, and suddenly found that the 737, which had been flying steadily ahead, began to lift violently for some reason, and at the same time fell upside down to the left at an obviously abnormal angle.

"Master, look!"

In fact, without the co-pilot's reminder, Chen Huaxin observed the abnormal posture of the 737 immediately.Even if he doesn't fly fixed-wing, he still understands the basic principles of flight.Even students who have just learned to fly know that it is abnormal when they see this state of the aircraft.

However, after waiting a few seconds.This state, which makes all flight personnel feel uncomfortable, shows no sign of being corrected, and there is even a growing trend.

Suddenly, 737 stopped climbing, and then fell directly to the left under Chen Huaxin's incredulous gaze.

Goosebumps all over Chen Huaxin's body, and he yelled: "No, something happened, the plane went into a spiral!"

In an instant, Chen Huaxin turned on the airborne rescue recorder located above his head.The next moment must be recorded, which will be the real task of their trip.

At the same time, in the control room of the Yulong tower, Lu Jinghua and others could already visually observe Xu Cang's plane on the three sides.Wang Xuan, on the other hand, kept following with a telescope, without saying a word.

Lu Jinghua leaned against the edge of the table, frowning all the time: "Where did this kid follow the procedure? It looks like he flies well."

"No!" Wang Xuan said inexplicably, "Why do I feel that there is something wrong with the plane's condition?"

"What's wrong?" Lu Jinghua found another telescope and looked in the direction Wang Xuan pointed.

Ever since the plane joined the three sides, Lu Jinghua hadn't been staring at it all the time.Although I don't know where Xu Cang read the procedure, but it really seems to be the same thing, and it is not difficult to land safely.

Ever since he saw Xu Cang enter the interior of the storm air mass, Lu Jinghua's heart has been under great pressure, and he still needs to relax a little during the gap.

However, when Lu Jinghua just found Xu Cang's plane, his heart that had been relaxed just now suddenly tightened up: "What's going on, why is there such a posture?"

The high elevation belt obviously slipped sideways, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look normal, does it?
It is easy to cause a stall at a high elevation angle, and isn't a stall with sideslip a spiral?
Almost at the moment when Lu Jinghua had an idea, the plane at a high elevation angle finally stopped climbing, and then fell headfirst to the left.

"It's in the spiral!" Lu Jinghua immediately recognized the state of the Blue Sky 9200 aircraft: "Hurry up and change it!"

The earlier the spiral state is, the easier it is to change it out. When the speed rises later, it is very likely that you will not be able to change it if you want to change it.In the flying circle, from time to time, you will hear the news that the plane crashed because the plane fell into a spiral and could not be corrected.

Moreover, due to energy conversion, the speed of the aircraft will become faster and faster if it is not controlled.This also means that the altitude loss of the spiraling aircraft will be faster and faster.Therefore, in a low-altitude environment, unless the aircraft is controlled to spin at the initial stage, once the number of turns is too large, the altitude will not be enough to recover.

These are all questions about whether the aircraft's fuselage structure can withstand aerodynamic loads under ultra-high-speed conditions.

At this moment, the altitude of the plane is about [-] feet.Of course, the Yulong tower is now under procedural control. They don't have air traffic control radar or ADS-B system, so they can't know the altitude of the plane at the moment, they can only judge with the naked eye.

However, it is not easy to judge the actual height of the aircraft with the naked eye without a reference object.However, according to the mountain peak next to the plane, Lu Jinghua probably guessed that the plane's altitude above the ground was at least two thousand feet.

This height difference is very ambiguous, if Xu Cang starts to recover from the spiral as soon as it is formed, maybe there is still a glimmer of life, but if he hesitates for a long time, Xu Cang will be very dangerous.

What Lu Jinghua was more worried about was whether Xu Cang could react in the shortest time.To be fair, the identification and recovery of the spiral is a must for any professional pilot in the initial learning. Xu Cang should not be able to see the spiral state of the aircraft, right?

To be honest, although the spiral is scary, as long as it is discovered and corrected early, the difficulty is not that great.

However, the muscles on Lu Jinghua's face gradually tightened. He clearly saw that the plane in the sky did not stop the momentum of the spiral, but there was obviously a problem with the speed of the circle.

"What's going on?" Lu Jinghua ran directly out of the window to broaden his field of vision: "Why is the plane still spinning?"

"Not only is it still spinning, but it's also at an unusually fast speed!" Wang Xuan followed, and he also found out that there was a problem with the plane.When entering the initial stage of the spiral, the energy accumulation is not so exaggerated, and the speed of the aircraft increases slowly.However, the speed of Xu Cang's plane is obviously different, so fast that the difference can be noticed with the naked eye.

Wang Xuan wondered: "Does he know that he has entered the spiral?"

The blood on Lu Jinghua's face faded: "Could it be that he didn't stop the accelerator?"

"If he doesn't close the throttle, it will be very dangerous!" Wang Xuan's face also raised a trace of worry. Keeping the engine running during the spiral means that it is helping the accumulation of spiral energy and increasing his speed to one in advance. dangerous situation.

"No, no! This is the most basic flying skill, how can Xu Cang not know?" Lu Jinghua couldn't imagine that Xu Cang's method would make a mistake in the procedure of the spiral recovery.

Even if you find a student in the aviation school who has finished flying solo and has not yet obtained a private photo, he can complete the initial spiral recovery. Does Xu Cang know if he did something wrong?
"Mistakes in the middle of a busy schedule?" Wang Xuan raised his eyebrows, even if he was unhappy with Xu Cang, it was difficult to construct a picture that Xu Cang would not change out of the spiral: "Or, he didn't realize that he had entered the spiral at all? but."

In the end, even Wang Xuan himself couldn't go on.However, no matter what the situation is, the reality is that Xu Cang not only failed to change the spiral, but even made mistakes to increase the danger of the spiral.

The tower controller also came behind Lu Jinghua and Wang Xuan at this time, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

However, Lu Jinghua didn't answer at all, but gripped the railing tightly, and squeezed out a sentence between his teeth: "It's the first lap! It's getting faster and faster!"

"He didn't recover!" Wang Xuan's eyes kept shaking with the plane in the sky: "He didn't move, he really didn't move!"

Suddenly, the plane turned into a blind spot, and Wang Xuan immediately rushed to the small balcony outside the tower, while Lu Jinghua and the tower controller immediately followed.

The three of them rushed outside, and the bone-piercing wind and rain suddenly enveloped their bodies, blowing away a little temperature accumulated on the body surface.

However, Lu Jinghua and Wang Xuan didn't care about the cold at all.The moment they rushed out, Lu Jinghua's blood-stained face became even paler: "It's the second lap! The height is not enough, I can't change it! It's too fast, too fast, what the hell is he doing?"

At this moment, the plane was so close to them that they could even visually observe the flight emblem on the vertical tail of the plane.The sound of the rumbling airflow under the high-speed flight of the plane is even more shocking, as if the hearts and livers of everyone below will tremble accordingly.

Second lap!
To be reasonable, no matter how dull you are, you should understand your situation after turning into the second lap.However, from visual observations, the aircraft showed no signs of recovery at all.

When the plane enters the spiral, there is not much altitude left. If it has not recovered after two laps, then half of its foot has already stepped into the gate of hell.

Lu Jinghua yelled towards the sky: "Xu Cang, what are you doing!?"

However, at the next moment, Wang Xuan's heart seemed to stop beating. He tilted his head slightly, and asked in a puzzled voice, "Listen, the voice is quiet?"

"What?" Lu Jinghua turned around, "What's so small?"

Wang Xuan raised his head abruptly, and pointed to the plane that was still spiraling in the sky: "The sound of the engine is quieter, he has closed the throttle!"

"It's going to be changed now?" Lu Jinghua gritted his teeth: "Is there still time?"

"It's too late!" In the sky, when Chen Huaxin observed Xu Cang's plane turned to the second lap, his face changed wildly.He pointed in the direction of the airport: "Come closer, slow down, hurry up, and rescue accurately!"

However, when the co-pilot was just about to control the helicopter to descend, he was startled suddenly and pointed at Xu Cang's plane: "Master, look!"

"He moved!" On the tower, Wang Xuan's pupils trembled.

At this moment, the misty rain between the heaven and the earth is overwhelming, and the water vapor is rising.The plane, which was not moving at first, suddenly stopped drifting with the current. Instead, it entered the sea like a giant whale, setting off turbulent waves, and gathering a large amount of water mist out of thin air on the vertical tail.

Lu Jinghua's eyelids twitched: "He's controlling the rudder, he wants to stop the spin of the plane? He knows the spin of the plane, and he knows how to change it, so what's he doing in front, can it be changed now?"

Thousands of thoughts were intertwined in Wang Xuan's mind, and it was at that moment when the light flashed, he suddenly grasped the source.

"Maybe, maybe he knew it all along? He just didn't change it on purpose?" As soon as this terrifying thought appeared in Wang Xuan's mind, it lingered like a nightmare.The muscles of Wang Xuan's whole body tensed unconsciously, the [-] pores all over his body opened, and even his breathing was sluggish: "If, if he doesn't change on purpose, then he..."

Lu Jinghua frowned: "If you don't change the spiral, what are you waiting for?"

Wang Xuan put one hand on the railing: "What if he wants to use the spiral to descend? What if he wants to use the spiral to adjust to the opposite direction of landing? What if he never thinks about recovering, but lands directly once and for all?"

When it came to the end, Wang Xuan looked at Lu Jinghua with an extremely terrified expression, "What if he really thinks so?"

"The spiral directly connects to Lu?" Lu Jinghua's heart seemed to be hit hard by a heavy hammer.

How crazy, how unrealistic, and how ridiculous Wang Xuan's words were.But Lu Jinghua didn't dare to belittle or make fun of him, but asked solemnly: "Is this really something humans can do?"

No one answered him, because at the same time as Lu Jinghua's voice fell, in the void, a giant weighing tens of tons drifted across the fifth side of runway 21 at an incredible angle like a racing car on land.

Xu Cang's spiral recovery can be described as artistically precise, with a margin of about half a turn as the lead, at the moment the aircraft stopped the spiral, the aircraft's track was stuck on the fifth side of runway 21, straightly facing target runway.

Such a behemoth draws a beautiful arc to the limit in the air, and its fuselage and vertical tail frantically squeeze the passing air, causing a thick and sharp sonic boom to explode around.

The squeezed air spread out, like water ripples, until it reached the tower. Lu Jinghua and Wang Xuan only felt their ears buzzing.

Gentlemen!And listen to the dragon chant!
"The antelope has horns, it's a natural thing!" Wang Xuan could only think of these eight words in his mind.

However, Wang Xuan's amazement was far from over!

After Lu Jinghua was shocked, a trace of worry arose in his heart: "His entry height is too low!"

Without using any instruments, Lu Jinghua can tell with the naked eye that the plane is not on the normal descent profile at this moment, but is far below the normal profile.

At the moment when Lu Jinghua's words ended, after the plane embeds into the five sides at an unbelievable angle, the attitude of the plane began to rise crazily. fly forward.

"He's slowing down?" Lu Jinghua raised his binoculars and looked over. When he saw the upper surface of the wing, his heart tightened, because he clearly saw the airbrake rising up on the upper surface of the wing to destroy the lift: "He's slowing down." It's over, the speed is so fast, he is going to land with the speedbrake! Why do you let yourself accumulate such a large amount of energy before landing?"

Wang Xuan's chest heaved rapidly: "What if he thinks that the energy is too large to handle, but the energy is too small to be solved? Is the current situation very familiar, pulling the speedbrake at ultra-low altitude?"

"You mean?" Lu Jinghua's eyes widened suddenly: "Turn off both engines!?"

When the engine is turned off at high altitude, the pilot would rather increase the energy of the aircraft, and would rather confirm that it can land before landing, and then use other means to consume the excess energy.

Because there are many ways for aircraft to consume energy, but increasing energy can only rely on the engine!
"You mean that Xu Cang's two engines have problems, and he kept the accelerator on purpose before?" When the plane flew to the field, when they visually observed the black smoke trail of the plane, they guessed that it might be Something is wrong with the engine.Then, it was intentional for Xu Cang to keep the accelerator while he was in the spiral in the early stage, he wanted to accumulate enough energy for himself!Enough energy to keep him level on the runway.

When the plane cut into final, it was already very close to the runway. However, the plane seemed to be at a very low altitude, but it continued to fly continuously. As time went by, the nose of the plane began to pitch up more and more. bigger and bigger.

In Xu Cang's hands, this technique that is nearly one meter flat is as pleasing to the eye as art.

But when the touchdown was approaching, Wang Xuan suddenly asked, "Is the plane chattering?"

"Not good!" Lu Jinghua's face changed: "The speed is not enough, the plane is going to a deep stall! He landed with a stick shaker!"

However, accompanied by Lu Jinghua's voice, the nose of the plane that had been rising suddenly began to drop, which is the sign that the plane has begun to lose lift.

But as soon as this performance appeared, the two main landing gears hit the runway just right, and the nose just fell heavily on the runway surface after falling.

"Luoluo has fallen!" Lu Jinghua's face was full of disbelief.

In the cockpit, the moment the plane touched down, Xu Cang stepped on the brakes, switched to the maximum manual brakes, pulled up the speedbrakes that had just been retracted, but did not start the engine to reverse thrust.Anyway, the two engines have all been turned off, and it makes no difference whether they pull or reverse.

This time, Xu Cang touched the ground at a speed close to the deep stall, which was a full ten knots slower than the expected speed, which was unimaginable.

The ground load of this landing was so huge that it seemed that the plane could be smashed to pieces at once.Of course, this is because the speed is too slow to control, but it happens to be what Xu Cang wants to see.

At this time, it was raining, and a thin film of water had accumulated on the runway.The first landing must break through this layer of water film, otherwise, the plane will skid, which is the so-called solid landing.

I don't know if the plane really fell apart. During the deceleration period, the plane began to shake continuously until the plane stopped completely on the runway. Xu Cang looked at the crack not far in front, his whole body paralyzed on the seat.

Leaning on half of the runway, Xu Cang landed!
At this time, there should have been a long howl of ecstasy, but Xu Cang had no strength left.He set the parking brake, started the APU, cut off the starter handles of the two engines that had been turned off, then left the right seat that was still leaking, sat on the observer seat, leaned back, and kept panting heavily. gas.

It was still raining outside, and the crisp sound of rain came to Xu Cang's ears. He lowered his head, let out a long breath, and said with a wry smile, "It's so cold!"

At this moment, in the helicopter cockpit in the sky, Chen Huaxin has almost lost his ability to think.From the 737 in front of me falling into a spiral to directly cutting into the fifth side with an incomprehensible technique, and finally landing.The process is done in one go, making people dizzying, and there is always a sense of unrealistic illusion.

Already in a daze, Chen Huaxin was called out several times by the co-pilot before he came back to his senses. The co-pilot asked, "Master, what should we do now? Go straight, or?"

Chen Huaxin rubbed his temples, and thought for a while: "I want to go down and have a look, and make sure that there is no problem with the unit, and then go when there is nothing wrong!"

The co-pilot glanced at Chen Huaxin, didn't say anything, but controlled the helicopter to start descending.

Soon, as the plane landed, the airport personnel who were about to evacuate immediately took action, and a series of auxiliary equipment, such as passenger elevator vehicles and transmission track vehicles, began to surround them.

In the cockpit, after the APU started up, Xu Cang connected the electricity and left the cockpit. Xu Cang really couldn't stay in the cockpit that was completely leaking.

He found a flight attendant's seat in the working room of the front cabin and sat down. Xu Cang waited for a long time with his head tilted, when he suddenly heard a knocking sound coming from the side.Xu Cang, who was already exhausted, pulled himself together, looked out through the small window of the cabin door, and confirmed that it was the maintenance.

The engineer also saw Xu Cang, and was obviously taken aback, wondering if he was surprised by Xu Cang's current state.However, the maintenance staff quickly gave a complete gesture from the outside world.

Xu Cang took a deep breath and released the hatch pre-positioner.Pilots will learn to open and close the hatch during emergency survival training. Fortunately, Xu Cang has attended the class well, otherwise it would be embarrassing if the hatch cannot be opened.

However, Boeing's hatch is really heavy, and it takes some strength to open it. This is still a rather troublesome job for Xu Cang who is already close to exhaustion.

After trying three times, Xu Cang opened the hatch.

As the cabin door opened, there was another gust of icy rain, and Xu Cang instinctively took a step back.However, before he got used to the air on the ground, a black shadow flashed in front of him, Xu Cang quickly raised his hand, and stopped Lu Jinghua who was about to pounce on him: "Don't come over!"

It was only then that Lu Jinghua realized that Xu Cang's face was like gold paper, and his exposed skin was covered with green and purple spots, which was extremely terrifying.

"Who are you?" Lu Jinghua approached the cabin, feeling a gust of cool air blowing out from the cockpit, and was immediately puzzled.Glancing into the cockpit through the entrance, he immediately gasped.I saw that the No. [-] windshield of the cockpit had completely disappeared, only some broken debris remained on the edge.

Xu Cang leaned against the wall of the front cabin workshop, with an ugly smile on his face: "It was hit by hail!"

Lu Jinghua pointed to the cockpit: "During the first approach, the windshield broke. That's how you flew the plane down?"

"Then what do you think?" Xu Cang waved to Lu Jinghua.Lu Jinghua hurried over to support Xu Cang.It's just that when his hands touched Xu Cang's body, he felt that what he touched was not a human body, but a piece of ice.

Lu Jinghua directly unbuttoned Xu Cang's tie, and then unbuttoned the top button of his uniform shirt. He opened the shirt and saw that the skin on Xu Cang's shoulders and chest was also abnormally pale.

Lu Jinghua hurriedly took off his clothes and wrapped them up for Xu Cang: "You can't stay here anymore, you will freeze to death, come down with me first!"

Outside the cabin door, Wang Xuan was standing on the passenger elevator car, the raindrops fell on him, but he didn't notice it.He just stared blankly at Xu Cang, but didn't dare to approach Xu Cang.

Xu Cang put one hand on Lu Jinghua's shoulder, suddenly he looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "From the plane's spiral to the final landing, have you seen it, have you seen it?"

Lu Jinghua tightened the clothes wrapped around Xu Cang's body: "I see, I see, don't be crazy, come down with me and talk!"

"Hahahahaha!" For some reason, Xu Cang's emotions seemed extremely excited at the moment: "That's my peak, my peak! I'm afraid I will never reach the height I just had in this life!"

Xu Cang's cry spread to the cabin door and reached Wang Xuan's ears. His body trembled violently, and he even took a step back unconsciously.Xu Cang at this moment is the highest of that mountain. Is there really anyone else in this world who can accomplish the incredible feat just now?

Apparently Xu Cang also knew that his celestial performance just now had reached the most intense peak in his life, and he was afraid that he would not make further progress in the future.However, he is still extremely excited about what he is doing.

I saw Xu Cang open his arms, wantonly showing his arrogance that seemed to fill his chest. At this moment, he only thought that he would be the top of the mountain, and suddenly laughed: "Who is the peak at the end of the sky? I am the insurmountable peak, haha Ha ha!"
