Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

Chapter 25 Forced Landing Off the Runway

With the stop of the No. [-] engine, the generators driven by the two engines all failed, the AC power supply of the aircraft stopped working, and the light in the cockpit went dark after a slight sound of the switch being opened.

Xu Cang glanced to the upper left, and the captain understood it, and almost immediately switched on both sides of the APU generator switch that had been started.In an instant, the plane received AC power again, which was regarded as the restoration of power supply, and many electrical equipment started to operate again.

Starting the APU is always the first option when both engines fail to run.

"I'm here to do the memory project of severe engine fire damage." The captain wiped the brow with the part of the thenar on his hand, bringing down a puddle of sweat, maybe he didn't even notice how serious his behavior was Embarrassed.

To be honest, even up to now, it is difficult for him to accept the fact that he was struck by birds twice.Two bird strikes were outrageous, but these two bird strikes both hit the engine and caused unimaginable damage.

What's the difference between this and being struck by lightning twice in a row?
Looking forward, Jianchuan runway can already be seen in front of his left, and the No. 05 sign on the runway is clearly visible.But now the height of less than two thousand feet seems to be not enough to fall on the runway from his feeling.

However, the captain didn't have time to think about these things anymore, he still had a lot to do.At this moment, Xu Cang put all his energy on controlling the plane, and he no longer cared about any procedures.

Of course, when on the ground, everyone knows that they are talking about standard standards. For example, when the engine is turned off, the PF under the supervision of the PM closes the thrust handle, and the PM oversees the PF to cut off the relevant engine start handle. The fire extinguishing handle of engine rotates to stop position again.

But now Xu Cang puts all his energy into maintaining the best glide ratio of the plane and maintaining the ultra-low speed of the plane accurately. How can he have the energy to cooperate with the captain to complete the memory project of the engine fire?
Moreover, the terrible thing is that the steering wheel keeps shaking the stick, and normal people can't hold it at all.However, Xu Cang was still able to control the plane steadily even when the plane continued to shake the stick.

At this time, the captain did not cause trouble to Xu Cang, but grabbed Xu Cang's hand and made movements.The autothrottle had been disconnected, the thrust handle of the No. [-] engine had been closed, and then the captain grabbed Xu Cang's left hand and placed it on the start handle of the No. [-] engine.

"You protect the second one, I'll cut the first one!" said the captain.

The co-pilot watched silently from behind, the captain's behavior was indeed consistent with cutting the engine starter handle, with the PF supervising the PM cutting off the affected engine.But Xu Cang didn't look at the starter handle at all, and all his hand movements were completed under the guidance of the captain, which was completely deceiving himself.

However, the co-pilot didn't say anything, he could tell the priorities.

For this kind of self-deception, the captain has no psychological burden.After cutting off the starter handle of the No. [-] engine, he grabbed Xu Cang's hand again and let it cover the fire extinguishing handle of the APU and the No. [-] engine. He pretended to pull out the already lit No. [-] engine fire extinguishing handle, and then rotated it until it stopped. Move the position, wait until the fire extinguisher release light is on, and start timing immediately.

Although even if the fire alarm is eliminated, the engine cannot resume operation, but it cannot be ignored, otherwise the fire alarm will spread to other parts and cause other unexpected hazards.In today's circumstances, they can no longer afford any extra-situational problems.

After the captain finished everything, Xu Cang's voice sounded again: "Five hundred feet, two hundred feet, fifty feet, report to the cabin!"

"I know." The captain did not call the flight crew, but directly pressed the passenger announcement: "The flight crew take their positions!"

This is a signal to the flight crew that they are about to evacuate, which has been agreed during the pre-flight communication.However, although many passengers don't understand what the so-called "take their places" means, they probably understand that it is not a good thing.This caused the passengers in the front middle of the economy class near the engine to panic, unbuckled their seat belts and ran to the first class.

The back of the economy class is full of people, and the only place to go is the first class in front.However, a full four or five rows of people rushed forward, and in an instant, the originally quite empty first-class cabin was filled.

As the only passenger in the first-class cabin, the young man who was here had never seen such a battle before, and he was already nervous, but now he was so frightened that his heart almost stopped beating.

"I just went out to play in advance secretly, why did you let me meet these?" The young man curled up in a corner, looking at the panic-stricken people, weak and helpless.

At this critical juncture, the chief purser got up directly from the work room, ran to the first-class cabin, and faced the rushing crowd: "Please return to your seats, this will affect the loading of the plane, and the plane is about to land. !"

However, how can the passengers who have lost their minds care about these things?Instinctively, they're the place to stay away from the center front and closer to the burning engine.

The purser's statement that the impact on aircraft loading is not alarmist.With so many people gathering forward, the nose of the plane began to drop uncontrollably, but under such circumstances, Xu Cang could not hold it back too much, the plane had already shaken its sticks, and if it was brought down again, the plane would be dangerous. Really stalling.

"How did this happen?" The captain also noticed the abnormality of the plane. If this continues, the plane will definitely hit the uphill slope at the base of the runway, and it will definitely die.

Xu Cang's ears moved slightly, and he clearly heard the clearer noise in the rear cabin, and immediately understood the problem.

But the captain's reaction was not slow. When Xu Cang was about to be distracted from dealing with cabin problems, he directly pressed the passenger broadcast again, and roared in an almost broken voice: "Go on, everyone will die together!"

The captain's voice was so loud that it almost made Xu Cang's ears ringing beside him.There is no skill in this voice, it is full of emotion, full of strong desire to survive and exasperation, so that the tone of the last few words is extremely sharp and harsh.

It can only be said that at a critical juncture, such words are the most effective.After a brief moment of confusion, the rioting passengers still chose to follow the captain's instructions and began to return to their seats.The plane is finally back to normal!

However, after such a commotion, Xu Cang's face couldn't help but gloomy!If he wasn't sure just now, he can draw a conclusion now.

"Listen to my password, you can't miss a single step!" Xu Cang said with a sullen face, "We can't land on the runway, we have to make an emergency landing outside the runway!"

　Should I continue to work on another chapter, or should I assign it to tomorrow?
