Chapter 1179 Sir Zhang made wrong judgment
"Hey, hey, hey, tower, tower, still can't hear you?"
"What's going on today? Isn't the flight really going to be grounded?"
On the plane, the captain went around the cabin, but when he came back, he found that there was still no response from the ground.
"It's strange that we haven't been able to contact you for so long. Logically speaking, if there is any unexpected situation, someone should have arranged for someone to notify us."
The three people in the cab were a little strange.
They had been waiting on the runway for almost an hour, and it was already half an hour beyond the agreed departure time.
It stands to reason that if there is a delay due to weather or the like, the ground control room should have informed them in advance.
If the communication cannot be transmitted, ground personnel should be arranged to come and notify, but now there is no notification, as if the plane has been forgotten.
"How about we go down and contact the ground crew personally to ask."
The second officer made a suggestion.
"No, the plane door has been closed. Reopening it is a flight accident. I am sure of the weather today, and the guests are impatient to wait. Let's wait for another ten minutes. If there is no notice, then I will take off directly."
To the surprise of the second officer and the trainee captain, the captain directly rejected the second officer's suggestion.
He was actually prepared to insist on taking off.
"this"
The second copy came to say that this was not in compliance with company regulations, but before he could say anything, the captain looked over directly.
The second officer immediately chose to shut up.
Although airlines are not like some organizations, due to flight safety and other issues, hierarchies are very serious.
In particular, the captain's authority is very strong. If other people on the crew offend the crew, life will be difficult.
The second officer obviously believed this deeply, so even though he knew that the captain's decision was not in compliance with the regulations, he did not dare to say anything.
The second officer did not dare to raise objections, and the trainee captain naturally did not even dare to open his mouth, because the most critical point in whether he could complete the internship was the captain's signature.
If he offends the captain, he will never pass the internship unless he can change the crew.
So even though both of them understood that the captain's decision was obviously problematic, they still chose to remain silent.
After all, in their opinion, the reason why the captain insisted on flying was probably because he was afraid of trouble.
From the airline's perspective, although the typhoon will affect flights, it does not completely prevent travel. According to past practice, when this happens, the control room will just let them wait indefinitely, unless it is determined that they cannot take off today.
The passenger will then be placed on the appropriate flight.
In this case, the crew members will not be the same as the passengers. They will be arranged to wait at the airport. Once the weather is suitable for flying, they will be immediately assigned to the navigation mission.
Crew members are paid only when they have flight missions. When there are no flight missions, even if they stay at the airport for a week, they can only receive a basic salary.
So the captain obviously didn't want to waste time at the airport because of the typhoon weather.
"Boss, are you sure?"
In fact, this is not the first time the crew has encountered a situation like this.
Sometimes it may not be that there are no conditions for takeoff, but that the people in the control room are busy with other things and have forgotten, or for various other reasons, the waiting flight crew is not in the control room.
Most of the time it is a false alarm.
Therefore, crew members must learn to act cheaply sometimes. Otherwise, if they do things completely according to the rules many times, they will be laughed at as fools and easily offend others.
But flying is a dangerous thing after all, especially after the plane is in the sky, and an accident is often fatal. When the second officer came to the end, he still asked more questions.
"Of course, don't worry, it's just a typhoon. I don't fly ten or eight times a year. Besides, this typhoon is not big."
When the captain heard the second officer's question, he nodded confidently.
Then he didn't speak anymore and started to operate the plane.
Following the captain's movements, the second officer and trainee captain also became busy.
Didi didi——
Just as the plane was about to start gliding, an indicator light suddenly came on.
"Low pressure warning! Low pressure warning!"
Then the plane sounded a series of sirens.
"It's strange, boss, why is there not enough air pressure? We haven't even taken off yet."
When the second officer heard the prompt, he suddenly became confused.
This kind of low-pressure warning usually only occurs when the aircraft's flight altitude exceeds a certain limit. Logically speaking, the aircraft has not yet taken off, so it is naturally under normal pressure on the ground.
"It may be because of the typhoon. Don't worry. You should wear an oxygen mask."
After hearing the second officer's question, the captain calmly stopped operating the aircraft and pressed the communication button.
"Dear passengers, hello everyone, welcome to this flight. I am the captain of this flight. Due to the typhoon, the plane is under low pressure when taking off. In order not to cause any physical discomfort to you, please wear an oxygen mask!
"
As soon as the captain's announcement came out, everyone in the passenger compartment suddenly became commotion.
Bang bang bang——
At the same time, an oxygen mask fell down in front of everyone's seat.
"Strange, what's going on? Does the typhoon also cause changes in air pressure?"
Holly asked Zhang Pin beside her in confusion.
Maybe because of the typhoon today, there weren't many passengers.
Although the two people were not seated together before, after the plane door closed, Holly saw that there was an empty seat next to Zhang Pin, so she sat over.
"This is asking about my blind spots in knowledge. To be honest, I don't know much about these things, but I believe there should be someone who does."
Zhang Pin also didn't expect that his luck seemed to be a bit bad today.
Before boarding the plane, it was a bit rough.
After boarding the plane, they had been waiting on the plane for more than an hour, but the plane never showed any intention of taking off.
Zhang Pin initially thought that the plane might not fly today.
As a result, the plane started suddenly just now, but not long after it started, it received another message about air pressure, and it seemed to be quite serious, otherwise everyone would not have to wear oxygen masks.
After hearing such a news broadcast, to be honest, the first reaction of the passengers on the plane was not to cooperate, but to complain. There were also many people like Holly who had doubts and even doubts.
But immediately, the crew members came out to explain.
Luojishan is an international metropolis, so it is natural that airline stewardesses cannot be aunties.
With such a group of cute girls with top-notch looks and figures to comfort me, the passengers who were not very cooperative at first also started to cooperate.
While everyone was wearing oxygen masks, Zhang Pin discovered a strange scene.
That is, Ethan did not cooperate in wearing the oxygen mask at this moment. On the contrary, the other person seemed to be heading towards the cab.
??????55.??????
As Ethan left, the middle-aged man named Dimit became obviously very nervous.
He hugged his briefcase nervously, and then couldn't help but look around.
At this time, Zhang Pin was also looking at the other party, so Dimit naturally noticed Zhang Pin's gaze.
The two looked at each other, and Dimit's first reaction was to retract his gaze and then lowered his head.
Seeing the other party's behavior, Sir Zhang became interested, so he continued to look at the other party.
After more than ten seconds, Dimit, who had his head lowered, raised his head again, and immediately looked at where Zhang Pin was.
Then the two looked at each other again.
Sir Zhang smiled and nodded, then withdrew his gaze.
He was just curious about what Ethan was doing when he left his position and went to the cab. He actually had no idea about Dimit.
But what Sir Zhang didn't expect was that after he looked back, the guy named Dimit took the initiative to stand up and walked towards him.
To be continued...
