At Tokyo Haneda Airport, due to the control of the entire Tokyo airspace, all flights at Haneda Airport, including domestic and international routes, have been delayed without exception.

Among them, an American Airlines 747 in a corner of the airport is the type that is affected.

Originally they should have launched it ten minutes ago, but after the trailer was hooked up, they were told that Tokyo airspace control was cancelled and the launch was cancelled. The specific airspace opening time was not yet determined, so they had to wait.

This plane across the United States has two sets, one of which is still lying in the second-floor unit lounge, and in the first class of the plane, there is also a casual man with a little white hair and a little white hair. He looks like he was fifty years old last year.

Unlike other brightly dressed distinguished guests in the first class, he didn't seem to be so noble and had some ordinary clothes on his body.

Just now the captain broadcasted the delay notice, so many passengers who were eager to return had already started to complain. However, the middle-aged man was calm and picked up the magazine on the plane and flipped it out casually.

Suddenly, a tall flight attendant came over and whispered beside the middle-aged man: "Captain, let you go there for a trip to the cockpit."

That's right, this flight attendant is calling the middle-aged man the captain. In fact, this person is indeed the captain of the National Airline, but the captain of the A320 model. This time he came to Japan for vacation. The return trip happened to be with the crew of his own company, which was very convenient.

The middle-aged man closed the magazine: "It's been a long delay?"

He knew the captain responsible for this flight, and the relationship between the two was pretty good. The only explanation for the cockpit was that the delay was too long, and the friend in the cockpit invited him in and chatted to pass the time.

After manually placing the landing gear handle, the lock is released when the handle is pulled to the limit. Logically speaking, the red indicator lights on the front landing gear and the right landing gear will be on at this time.

The reason why speed reduction plates and reverse thrust cannot be used in this case is that once used, the aircraft cannot maintain a gentle deceleration state, which causes the fuselage part of the aircraft to contact the road surface prematurely. At large speeds, it may cause the fuselage to disintegrate or the fuselage to ignite fuel under friction and explode.

The first-class flight attendant was furious: "I know. Where is the life jacket?"

The middle-aged man looked puzzled: "It shouldn't be, an aircraft controls the entire Tokyo airspace? What's the problem so serious?"

After that, the flight control automatic speed-reducing plate jump switch of P6-2:B9 is pulled out to prevent the ground spoiler from being accidentally released after landing.

"Xu Cang!" The captain's heart was pounding, and he seemed to have already smelled the breath of death. Perhaps, he should have turned right and cut into the No. 25 runway as Xu Cang said, and beat him?

The captain gritted his teeth: "I forgot this bridge, I should remind you."

"Damn it!" Even Xu Cang, who had always been calm in his mind, couldn't stop waving in his heart at this time. However, he quickly adjusted his mind and immediately issued a command: "Please collect the landing inspection sheet in part or all of the landing gear."

"Xu Cang, I heard that you have completed a water emergency landing in China. Do we want us to cross the single-wheel landing and directly carry out a water emergency landing?" asked the captain.

"Shuyue, the plane will land in a while, and you are not allowed to participate in the evacuation work. Listen to me, you are the passenger. Once the flight attendant announces the evacuation, you will evacuate with the passengers. Do you understand?" Xu Cang's voice rose a little bit, and it seemed even a little stern.

Xu Cang's right hand was fine, but his left hand was injured, and his palm was covered with a thick bandage, which seemed to be inconvenient to operate the accelerator. The captain thought that if necessary, he could play Xu Cang's left hand and he would control the double-shot accelerator.

However, after waiting for a few seconds, the green light on the left landing gear had already lit up, but the front landing gear and the right landing gear were still the same as before, with only the red lights on.

Since this is the case, the captain didn't care. After pulling out the handle of the landing gear manually, he immediately silently for fifteen seconds, and then put the handle of the landing gear without hesitation.

Xu Cang said, pointing to the broken windshield: "If this happens, will you still think that a forced landing on the water is a good idea?"

Of course, even if you check the certificate, you usually just check the airline boarding pass, and he is a more cautious type.

At this moment, on ANA flight 45, Xu Cang's forehead was drooping on the collapsed control board, and asked weakly: "Narinata approaches and applies to use Runway 08."

Since the release of the landing gear will bring more drag to the aircraft, the fuel volume is now tight, and it is obviously unwise to release the landing gear too early to consume more fuel.

The moment the plane left the ground, Xu Cang uncontrollably had a thought in his mind, which was based on the escaping instinct under the most primitive fear. If he turned directly on the spot and landed on another runway at Narita Airport, would there be such a slight possibility of success?

The reason why Xu Cang had not planned to turn it in place before and then landed on the same runway in the opposite direction is that the turn will lose the height very quickly. If the oil is short of fuel and the engine is turned off, the height will not be able to support it at all, which is extremely dangerous. Second, due to the existence of the turning radius, if the plane wants to turn back and land in the opposite direction, the actual turning angle will exceed 360 degrees.

Of course, I will not take responsibility for what I say because of this choice.

After flipping over the license for a while, I saw the validity period in the lower right corner of the second page. The middle-aged man smiled and said, "It's true, I didn't pay attention if you didn't say it."

However, at this moment, the captain couldn't say anything. The most important thing was that he himself did not have the confidence to take it over.

Therefore, Xu Cang must take this time to explain everything to the first-class flight attendant. If necessary, the flight attendant will judge everything by himself.

At this time, he was racing against time. In order to save fuel as much as possible, the two of them delayed the flap. In addition, the length of cutting into the five sides was not sufficient, so his movements must be faster, otherwise the speed may not be reduced.

"Take the last time, you check the two forced landing evacuation procedures, assign good work, and especially determine the location of the life raft. Do you know where the life raft is in the luggage rack?"

When he decided to make an appointment to Narita Airport, Xu Cang revealed to him about the decision to force the landing in Tokyo Bay. Although he felt extremely shocked at the time, after careful consideration, this was the only chance to survive.

After operating on the CDU, the captain pulled out the landing gear sound warning jump switch of P6-3:D18 against the airflow. This is to prevent the landing gear sound warning from appearing when the landing gear is closed and the landing flap is selected.

The so-called emergency fuel volume has a professional term in the aviation industry, that is, the expected arrival fuel volume of the flight when landing at the nearest suitable airport is less than the fuel volume that maintains a 30-minute flight time.

"Put it now, hurry up!" Xu Cang ordered.

The captain's face changed suddenly. They actually considered this plan. However, Xu Cang himself denied it. The No. 2 engine had already stopped, and the No. 1 engine would also be shut down in a very short period of time that could be predicted. So the height is the most precious at this moment. How could it be possible to cut into the No. 25 runway under a large slope turn?

Moreover, half of the runway 25 is under construction. Even if the plane has been cut into the ground, it is a question whether it can land on the runway.

"This guy is so calm. He knows what he wants, what risks he will take, and how to avoid these risks." The captain present exclaimed.

Xu Cang reacted quickly. The moment the No. 2 engine was turned off, he pressed the left rudder and ordered the captain to receive the flap. At the same time, he confirmed that the landing gear cover was manually covered, and then put the landing gear handle on it.

"Success!"

However, Xu Cang shook his head: "No need, I will do it myself."

The middle-aged man rolled his eyes: "Don't you understand this very clearly? Haven't you figured out the reason yet?"

Next to the validity period of the license is a pilot's own signature, with a series of letters written on it, which is his name - Chesley Sharingberg.

Narita Airport approach control thought Xu Cang misunderstood that Runway 26 could not be used or ignored the impact of the wind in this field.

I saw Shalinberg raise his hand and pointing to the distance. At the far end of his finger, a long dragon-like bridge spans east and west, and it is located above Tokyo Bay.

The expiration of a license does not mean the qualification expires. Just like the ID card will also expire, the license actually has a term. However, the validity period is very long, and many pilots do not even pay attention to this.

Therefore, after Xu Cang asked the captain to check the lower part of the landing gear in the performance chapter, he abandoned all his fantasies about secondary approaches, and was ready for an emergency landing on the water.

The captain looked up and looked at the backup landing gear indicator on the rear roof. The green light of the left landing gear was also on, and the other two did not react at all.

If all these changes could happen earlier, it would be enough to attract Xu Cang's attention and correction.

Xu Cang's words made the captain not know how to answer. After holding them in for a while, he gave a sentence: "I just feel that you have had successful experience."

The captain was just planning to persuade him, but the moment he turned his head, he saw Xu Cang's pale side face. The face that actually looked tender was also full of fear.

But there is also a parallel runway at Narita Airport. If you climb and turn right directly, you can land without considering the turning radius. However, there is a big problem with this, that is, the parallel runway is under construction, and nearly half of the road surface is actually not used.

As the plane slowed down, the captain kept putting the flap to forty: "Wind correction plus five, downwind three meters, reference speed of 151."

Soon, Xia Shuyue's voice sounded across the phone: "Brother, are you calling me?"

When contacting Yokohama Airport before, the approach frequency informed Narita Airport of the wind. If you choose to land on the runway No. 08, you will have to bear about three meters of wind.

"I didn't say it before." The flight attendant didn't know the specific situation.

As soon as this was said, everyone in the cockpit of the American Airlines on the ground was shocked.

The first class flight attendant silently wrote down in his heart: "I understand."

Xu Cang did not urge him, and his head was leaning on the edge of the damaged control panel. If it was not necessary, he would not say a word.

This is not a big deal as ordinary people think as long as there is no oil shortage and fire outage, it is not the case. In fact, this is not the case. Since civil aviation adheres to the concept of margin.

"Attack landing gear suppresses the gate, suppresses! The engine air-induced gate is closed." As the captain finished his last bit of work, he directly switched the transmitter on the communication panel to the passenger broadcast PA: "Each crew is in their place."

Tokyo Bay is northeast of Narita Airport. If you land on the regular Runway 26, if you fail to land, you need to make a 180-degree turn in the air to make a 100-degree turn. Normally, it may be nothing to turn around, but when the fuel volume is extremely tight, it is very likely that the plane will be shut down due to lack of oil when flying again. At this time, altitude is everything, and turning is the easiest to drop the height. Xu Cang must eliminate this fatal possibility no matter what.

The captain who had been acting obedient to Xu Cang before was relieved at this moment. He smiled and said, "Xu Cang, don't let fear blind your eyes."

During approach, since it is in most of the descent stages, the average thrust can actually be maintained at a relatively low level. However, once it goes back to fly, the throttle is close to full, and the fuel consumption will be increased instantly. Such a large flow is simply fatal when the fuel is tight.

Just as the captain was extremely regretful, the remaining engine No. 1 vomited a faint black smoke and began to vibrate slightly. The captain's muscles tightened all of a sudden, which was a very, very bad omen.

Confirm that there was no problem with the speed, the captain immediately unbuttoned the seat belt, pulled the seat back, and leaned back. Opened the manual landing gear cover on the entrance floor, and pulled out all the manual landing gear handles of the front landing gear and the right landing gear.

"Uh" the captain was a little embarrassed: "My friend is like us, and can only understand some simple Japanese sentences. It is good to hear that this ANA plane is preparing to land in Narita. He called me and asked me to adjust Narita's approach frequency to monitor it. It was so lively. The entire Tokyo airspace was blocked, and so many flight delays were for this plane, which was a great deal of face."

When talking about this issue, the captain was silent for a while, without saying anything, but just shook his head. He could see that Xu Cang was in poor condition, but to be honest, he was indeed unsure and lacked confidence.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and listened with his ears. Sure enough, the sound of Narita Airport approaching came from the frequency: "ANA45, altitude of 6,000 feet, a course of 320, a correction of sea pressure of 1013, and a report on the remaining fuel time."

In such an emergency fuel situation, the crew abandoned Yokohama Airport and ventured to Narita Airport. What was the consideration for?

Narita Airport is very close to Yokohama Airport. The two airports are also very close to the direction of the runway, and the wind is basically the same in this scene. Previously, Xu Cang and others landed on Runway 27 at Yokohama Airport, so Runway 26 should be used at Narita Airport.

"Once we choose to make an emergency landing on the water, we will really bet on our own lives."

Because the flight attendant is in poor health, the first-class flight attendant is now responsible for coordinating the cabin command. Compared to the previous panic, after emotional accumulation, the first-class flight attendant is now much better.

"It seems yes. Now the entire Tokyo airspace is making way for this plane, and the airspace control is because of this plane." said the captain.

Shalinberg frowned even more and more: "But the Tokyo Bay cannot be forced to land!"

"Let's turn right and cut into Runway 25?"

At this time, the benefits of clearing the airspace are so obvious. From beginning to end, there is a plane flying on ANA Flight 45 in the entire Tokyo airspace. It is really a big sea and a fish leaping with the sky and a high sky so that birds can fly.

"Who knows!" The captain shrugged: "My friend heard some information in the frequency controlled by the Tokyo area. This ANA plane seemed to have been to Yokohama for a pre-order landing, but for some reason, it was replaced by a pre-order landing to Narita Airport."

Ten feet!

However, for some reason, Xu Cang followed the demon like a demon and wanted to turn right and cut directly into the five sides of the parallel runway.

After that, Xu Cang handed the plane to the captain of the left seat, and he called the cabin crew in his inner words and ordered the next matter.

Even if it finally landed safely, the fuel in the fuel tank was less than the emergency amount when the vehicle was shut down, which was an unsafe incident.

He still thought it too simply, and his understanding of future dangers is not accurate enough. The real crisis is much more serious than he expected.

Yes, how can you not be afraid? The plan to cut into Runway 25 seems to be dying. Is the method of forcing the landing in Tokyo Bay really good? Even if the water is normal, the subsequent water pouring into the cockpit may drown them. In this plan, the two people in the cockpit are actually alive.
To be continued...
