Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

"What do you mean, there is at least a vertical separation of more than 70 feet?" In the CAAC director's office, Li Jie listened to the report from Li Lin, director of the Aviation Safety Department, without much expression on his face.

Li Lin hummed: "That's right, the minimum vertical separation between Air China's planes and Spring Airlines' planes is just over 70 feet. Fortunately, the worst result didn't happen."

"Fortunately?" Li Jie sneered: "The minimum vertical separation between the two 737s is only more than 70 feet. This is indeed good luck. It is basically like picking up two planes and returning."

Li Lin could hear the rage hidden in Li Jie's words: "Ju Li, this matter"

"The inspection team from the International Civil Aviation Organization is still here. What do they want to do to make such a big deal happen to me?" Li Jie returned to his seat: "Where's the crew of the flight involved?"

"According to the Xianchi control report, the cause of the incident was that the plane of Spring Airlines deviated from the scheduled altitude. The flight crew of Spring Airlines has been grounded, and the people from the Jianchuan Supervision Bureau have passed by, and the Southwest Bureau will also send people. We Headquarters here?"

Director Li Jie said that there is nothing wrong with it. Whether it is the plane of Spring Airlines or the plane of National University Airlines, they are really picked up. If they are not careful, the planes will be destroyed. Or two, I really want to I am afraid after thinking about it.

Although this kind of incident did not cause the worst result, it is definitely an extremely serious incident, especially now that the ICAO investigation team is here. Isn't this slapping CAAC in the face?
"No need for now, let's see what the Southwest Bureau has to say." Li Jie said with a gloomy face, "All the crews of National University Airlines are also grounded for investigation."

"But... the crew of the National Airline didn't have any"

"Whether there is one can only be known after investigation." Li Jie snorted: "The responsibility of the National University Airlines crew is still uncertain, but the responsibility of Spring and Summer Airlines should be determined. The problem will only be the difference in size."

"I'm afraid that's not the case anymore."

Li Jie frowned: "What do you mean?"

"According to the feedback from Jianchuan Airport, someone on the Spring Airlines plane was injured."

"What?" Li Jie's face changed suddenly: "What's the situation?"

No matter what the problem is, as long as it involves casualties, the nature of the matter changes.

After all, civil aviation is a service industry. Not only did it fail to provide suitable services, but it also injured customers, so the situation is more unacceptable.In the civil aviation industry, whenever someone is injured, the punishment level is dealt with according to the fixed frame.

"It seems that the crew's manipulation was a bit rough, which caused the aircraft to switch from overweight to weightless for a short time, and then..." Li Lin's face was not good. He is the director of the Aviation Safety Department, and his main responsibility is to deal with such safety incidents.

It's okay to talk about technical problems, but once people are injured, he will be under a lot of pressure.

"According to the news from the Medical Department of Jianchuan Airport, one flight attendant was injured, and two other passengers were injured, and one of the male passengers was seriously injured and is already receiving treatment." Li Lin frowned: "And, the fatal one Yes, the male passenger is not in good health, so things are more difficult."

Li Jie's heart tightened all of a sudden. It's one thing to be injured, but another thing to die.Just listening to Li Lin's tone, things don't seem to be going well.

"That's right. The male passenger suffered from severe tuberculosis, and his physical function was already very poor. In addition to this back injury, the situation is more critical." Li Lin added at the end: "I have already Talk to Jianchuan Airport and try your best to treat him."

Li Jie's heart skipped a beat: "Tuberculosis?"

In this era, tuberculosis is far less terrifying than it was in ancient times.Tuberculosis, known as tuberculosis in ancient times, is difficult to cure.But in modern times, tuberculosis can be suppressed through the extensive use of antibiotics, and it is definitely not an incurable disease.

However, it is undeniable that tuberculosis can cause extremely serious damage to physical fitness.If he was injured again, Li Jie really didn't dare to think about it.

Li Lin glanced at Li Jie, who wanted to kill someone, and felt very anxious. He was quite worried that Li Jie would lose his temper on the spot, and he would suffer disaster.

"There seems to be no need to determine the matter of the Spring and Summer Airlines crew." Li Jie pointed to Li Lin: "Give them a half-year stop first."

Li Lin could tell that Li Jie was mad. To be fair, the Spring/Summer Airlines incident happened at a very unfortunate time. It happened to be during the ICAO inspection. Isn't this a blatant crime against the wind?

Li Lin opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything yet. Li Jie probably was still puzzled, and shook his finger: "Half a year is not enough, three years is not right, and we are grounded for life. We don't need such pilots."

Li Jie seemed to be going crazy. Isn't Spring and Summer Airlines holding them back at such a critical time?No, it's not a drag, it's a slap in the face of CAAC back and forth.

In front of the Chairman of the ICAO Technical Standards Committee, FAA and EASA, CAAC has lost all face.If it is more serious, CAAC will lose the election for a category of directors. Li Jie probably wants to dismantle Spring Airlines.

"Stop flying for life?" Li Lin was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Director Li can't do it, can't do it."

"what happened?"

Li Lin had a strange expression on his face: "The co-pilot of Spring Airlines is Xu Cang!"

"Xu Cang?" Li Jie was taken aback: "Shouldn't he go back by plane today? Why did he become the flight crew?"

"This. The situation is a little complicated." Li Lin coughed twice: "According to the response of Chunxia Airlines' traffic control, the first co-pilot was going to time out, and Chunxia Airlines couldn't transfer a new co-pilot. Xu Cang just happened to With the certificate, let him go on top temporarily."

"Temporary capture?" Li Jie turned his head for a moment: "It's understandable to carry the ID with you, but what about the clothes? He wouldn't carry the clothes with him, would he?"

Li Lin scratched his head: "No clothes, Xu Cang flew in casual clothes."

"Flying casually?" Li Jie's expression darkened completely: "Lawless, he really is lawless."

To be honest, it is definitely wrong to pretend to be flying casually, but it is really not considered lawless because of this.The main reason is that at this point in time, it was on the point of hitting the gun, and Li Jie's anger was like adding fuel to the fire. Li Lin was a little scared by the side.

"What about others?"

"Who?"

"Xu Cang!"

Li Lin coughed a few times: "It's at the Jianchuan Supervision Bureau."

"Detain his license for me. Don't let him go to the Southwest Bureau, and send it directly to the archives of the Flying Standards Department of the General Administration for storage." Li Jie was so angry that his eyes were on fire: "Let that kid come and get it by himself."

"Ju Li, Ju Li, the matter is not like this." Li Lin hurried to put out the fire: "This time, the captain of the flight made a mismanagement and violated the handling procedures for speeding in the air. Speaking of it, it was Xu Cang who saved the plane in the end. If it wasn’t for Xu Cang, it would not be an accident, but a real accident.”

Li Jie's face turned pale. On technical issues, he never doubted Xu Cang.It's just that it is too unfavorable for CAAC to have a problem at this time. No matter what, it must be dealt with seriously this time.Moreover, Li Jie had certain expectations for Xu Cang, but Xu Cang's sloppiness in this incident made Li Jie feel very disappointed.

However, after hearing what Li Lin said, Li Jie didn't mention the deduction of Xu Cang's license.

However, that doesn't mean things are over.

"What about the control? Even if the plane of Spring and Summer Airlines deviated from the altitude at that time, the radar monitoring can issue an early warning."

"According to the Xianchi control report, the controller discovered the conflict at the first time. However, the controller may have panicked and sent the wrong first order, thus losing the best time to evade."

"Wrong order?" Li Jie asked, "What's wrong?"

"The plane of Spring Airlines was ordered to turn right, but there is a restricted area on the right side of the plane of Spring Airlines!"

In fact, if the controller had given the right command at the first time, it would have turned left instead of right.Then there is probably nothing to do later, and the remaining time is almost wasted because of this wrong instruction.

In this incident, the controller also has an unshirkable responsibility.

Li Jie took a deep breath: "The director, deputy director, director of the training department, director of the safety supervision department, the on-duty supervisor, and the controller in the Xianchi control area all suspended me for investigation."

Li Lin trembled when he heard that, it was the first time that Li Jie got so angry, he basically ran over all the leaders of the Air Traffic Management Bureau of Xianchi Control Area from top to bottom.

"I see, I will do it." Li Lin said in a low voice.

"In addition. If according to what you said, Xu Cang saved the crisis in the end, then the license deduction will be avoided, but the investigation should be done, and the investigation must be done." Li Jie said coldly: "I don't target Xu Cang. Cang, but this time we have to check Spring and Summer Airlines, a captain can turn off the gas pedal at an altitude of [-] feet, looking for death."

Li Lin echoed in a low voice: "Director Li, the operating procedures of domestic pilots are still a little irregular."

"If it is not standardized, then it will be uniformly standardized." Li Jie snorted coldly: "The five regional administrations will be electrified, and [-] appointed representatives will be dispatched from each jurisdiction, and all the flight personnel of Spring Airlines will be dispatched in batches. Check it out."

"All investigations?" Li Lin was stunned. It was the first time he had heard the order of all investigations.

It is rare, but not uncommon, for all investigations at the level of captain or above.However, it is the first time in the history of domestic civil aviation that all the flight personnel of the entire airline have been screened.

Li Jie was obviously not joking or taking a formality this time. There are a total of [-] appointed representatives of the five regional administrations. This lineup is a bit too large.

"That's right, all the pilots, including the trainees." Li Jiehan said in a voice: "Also, tell Xu Cang to respect himself. If he dares to intervene, then the General Administration will set a rigid minimum elimination target."

There are two types of inspections by the Bureau, one is without indicators, and the other is with indicators.The former is as long as you pass, while the latter must guarantee a certain minimum elimination rate, which is extremely cruel.

From this, it can be seen that Li Jie barely saved Xu Cang's face.If this order continues, at least 50.00% of the elimination target must be maintained, then Spring and Summer Airlines must ground half of the pilots. This pressure is too exaggerated.

However, even if the minimum elimination rate is not set, the pressure for Spring Airlines is quite terrifying.

The technical requirements and standards of the Bureau's investigation are usually the highest. If everything is done according to the rules, Spring and Summer Airlines will probably be in trouble.

Li Lin moved his lips, and asked in a low voice: "Director Li, if all the staff investigate, the cycle will be very long."

"It's okay. It doesn't matter if the cycle is longer. It can be done in batches. Anyway, all employees must be covered. This is the punishment that Spring Airlines must accept." Li Jie waved his hand: "Don't say it, it's just decided."

Li Lin knew that Li Jie had made up his mind, and if he tried to persuade him, he would be causing trouble for himself.I sighed in my heart. In this way, it is estimated that at least [-]% of the Spring and Summer Airlines pilots will be grounded.

This is still the most conservative estimate!

"Chunxia Airlines won't collapse like this?" Li Lin thought to himself.

Just when he left Li Jie's office, when the door opened, there was Jamie Harrison, the chief engineer of the FAA, standing outside.

The two looked at each other, and Jamie Harrison smiled: "Director Li, I heard something dangerous just now?"

Li Lin didn't like the FAA chief engineer in the ICAO inspection team very much, but he didn't want to put on a bad face, so he said blankly: "If there is a problem, we will naturally solve it and deal with it. "

"In fact, this unsafe incident is very unfortunate, isn't it?" Jamie Harrison said with a smile: "It would be a pity if it affects the election of a class of directors."

At this time, Li Jie's indifferent voice came from the office: "CAAC will naturally handle this matter according to the regulations."

Jamie Harrison waved his hand: "Naturally, we don't doubt the professionalism of CAAC. But, isn't this just a coincidence? We want to participate, for example, to observe possible simulator inspections."

A trace of displeasure appeared on Li Lin's face: "This is an internal matter of our CAAC, you can participate"

Before Li Lin finished speaking, Li Jie's voice came out again: "Yes! During the inspection period, you can apply for the inspection of the simulator."

Now that Li Jie has said so, Li Lin can't raise any objections anymore. In front of outsiders, the director of the Aviation Safety Department and the director have different opinions, which is not a good thing.

Jamie Harrison smiled even brighter: "Thank you Director Li for your generosity."

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the distance.Li Lin followed the voice, but found that it was the secretary of the bureau chief running this way.

The secretary ran over, nodded to Li Lin, and hurried into the office.

When the secretary entered, Li Lin who was standing at the door closed the office door with a casual push.

Of course Jamie Harrison noticed Li Lin's small movements, but he didn't say anything, just smiled.

Li Lin was too lazy to talk to Jamie Harrison, raised his eyelids, and left silently.

Jamie Harrison looked at Li Jie and the secretary who were facing each other in the office through the crack of the door, pondered for a moment, and left with Li Lin.

In the office, the secretary took a breath, but the expression on his face was unusually dignified: "Director, just now, the medical department of Jianchuan Airport received news that the seriously injured male passenger of the spring and summer flight 9334 was critically ill. The notice is out."
