Chapter 93 Three routes for Xu Cang (please subscribe!)

In the Urumqi regional control room, the shift director looked at the radar screen with some irritation: "Have you picked up the signal?"

"He said he's here, director, please wait a moment." The assistant said, suddenly pointing at the radar screen: "Yes!"

Sure enough, the director looked at the radar screen in the direction pointed by the assistant, and saw a signal point on it. This signal point was the image signal generated by the military radar after scanning the designated airspace, and then transmitted to the control room in real time.

"It's good if there's a signal, it's good if there's a signal!" The director let out a long breath. If there's a signal, it means everyone is fine. This is the most important thing. But soon, the director looked at the location of the signal point and said:

Confused: "Are they on the flight path? How do they fly?"

Logically speaking, if the radio fails, Blue Sky 9211 should return to its scheduled flight plan route, but now the signal point says that the route it has taken does not look like a regular route to Urumqi Airport.

In 2000, the domestic airspace was not well developed and optimized. There were only a few routes into Urumqi Airport. The director had long been familiar with them, and none of them matched the routes taken at the current signal point.

of.

"What are they doing?" The director became more and more strange as he looked at it. It makes no sense for Blue Sky 9211 to fly like this. The only good thing is that there are not many flights at Urumqi Airport, so even if Blue Sky 9211 flies like this, it won't have any impact. It's just that

, if Lantian 9211 moves south, it may affect a very busy X22 route. Once this route is affected, the deployment task will be several times larger. And it will also need to coordinate with another control area.

It is extremely inconvenient and will have an extremely passive impact on airspace control throughout the west.

The top priority is to understand what Lantian 9211 wants to do?

"Could they have a navigation problem?" the area controller raised a possibility.

Some aircraft have flight computer problems during flight, resulting in the loss of navigation map data, and naturally cannot fly according to the scheduled route.

"No, no!" The director's eyesight was still very sharp: "If traditional navigation is restored, then they should fly towards a certain VOR station. Where is the VOR flying in the direction they are flying now?"

At this time, the assistant said: "So they were flying visually?"

"But it's all desert and Gobi down there. What reference points are there for visual flight?" the regional controller retorted casually.

However, it was this rebuttal that directly woke up the supervisor on duty. He looked left and right, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind. He said, "This route looks a bit familiar, doesn't it?"

The director paused and patted the area controller on the shoulder: "Cut the background to a low-altitude picture!"

"Director, why are you cutting the low-altitude map?" The area controller really didn't understand what his director wanted to do, but he still followed the director's instructions and cut the background to a low-altitude map.

Once the background was cut to a low-altitude image, a lot of obstacles appeared on the image, and some protruding parts had standardized heights. In this way, the regional controller discovered a clue: "How do they move where there are more obstacles?"

Fly?"

The director did not answer the area controller's doubts, but took a step back with a look of disbelief on his face: "This is not an obstacle!"

"What?" The assistant was stunned: "Director, you said it's not an obstacle?"

"Where are there such dense obstacles? Those are mountains, those are Tianshan Mountains!" The director still couldn't recover from the shock: "They are not flying randomly, they are flying in the Tianshan Mountains!"

"Tiantian Mountain!" The area controller was stunned: "Why are they flying along Tianshan Mountain?"

"Because the Tianshan Mountains can guide them to Urumqi Airport!" The director suddenly laughed: "You were right just now, they must have a navigation problem, and it is a huge problem. Even traditional navigation cannot do it.

We can only rely on visual reference. In the vast desert, there is no suitable reference object, only the Tianshan Mountains! Urumqi Airport is at the starting point of the Bogda Mountain, the northern branch of the Tianshan Mountains. You can see Urumqi by flying down the mountains.

Airport. Genius, genius, how could they think of flying along the Tianshan Mountains?”

The Tianshan Mountains run from east to west and have three branches: the North Vein, the Middle Vein, and the South Vein. Among them, Urumqi is at the foot of the mountain to the north of the midpoint of the North Vein, and the half of the North Vein east of Urumqi is due to the highest peak of the North Vein.

Gedda Peak, also known as Bogda Mountain, is essentially the northern mountain range of the Tianshan Mountains. The director found that the flight path of Lantian 9211 completely conforms to the extension of the northern mountain range of the Tianshan Mountains. It can be seen that the aircraft is flying along the northern mountain range of the Tianshan Mountains.

pulse flight.

And judging from the location of the plane, it is estimated that it will take more than 20 minutes to fly to the Urumqi Airport area.

"Quick! Inform the airport of the situation and let them be ready to receive it." The director still felt uneasy after giving the instruction: "Let them pay attention to the east. The plane should be coming from the east. Send people to high places to give the crew a landing signal.

.”

From the current situation, we can roughly know that Blue Sky 9211 may not only have navigation problems, but also communication problems. It is very likely that the two-way communication fails. In this case, once the plane arrives at the airport, the airport will

Landing clearance cannot be given by radio, but by flashing lights or semaphores.

However, this kind of situation is rare, and the director was worried that Urumqi Airport was caught off guard and messed up the matter. So, when he asked his subordinates to pass the information of Lantian 9211 to the airport, he specifically mentioned this aspect, that is

Let the airport prepare in advance.

It can only be said that the director's worries are absolutely justified. After receiving the relevant news at Urumqi Airport, the entire airport was in chaos. However, fortunately, there was a period of preparation, so there was no need to panic.

In the cockpit of Blue Sky Airlines 9211, Xu Cang has handed over the control to captain Tan Heling. From the time of the plane problem to now, Xu Cang has not done any physical work. Sometimes the mental exertion is more tiring than the physical work.

.

They were completely out of the dangerous weather. The sun was shining down, and they had a panoramic view of the northwest. If the visual conditions were good, it would be easier to maintain a distance from the obstacles on the top of the mountain.

To be honest, the period from the descent to 5,100 meters to the time when dangerous weather breaks out is the most dangerous, because the visual conditions are not good, so you need to maintain extreme concentration at all times and do not dare to be careless at all.

In that short period of less than ten minutes, Xu Cang felt that his whole body was about to be drained, so as soon as he left the dangerous weather range and the visual conditions improved, he handed over the control to the captain Tan Heling as soon as possible.

.

At this time, Tan Heling was so impressed with Xu Cang that he had no objection at all.

Seeing Xu Cang leaning on the seat tiredly, Tan Heling turned his head and asked, "Why don't you take a rest and squint for ten minutes? I can just watch the plane."

Xu Cang leaned his head on the back of the chair, his eyelids were trembling, and he was about to be unable to hold on any longer. Xu Cang didn't want to doze off at this time, but his eyelids were as heavy as a thousand pounds, and he really couldn't hold it anymore.

To be honest, Xu Cang is good in everything, but his physique is average and his energy is not up to par. It's strange. Xu Cang is only in his twenties. He is clearly in the peak period of his life. Why does he feel like he is in his twilight years?

After pushing his body up, Xu Cang suspected that he was really going to fall asleep if he stayed like this. He picked up the wet towel in the utility grid on his right and wiped his face. He then told Xia Shuyue: "Behind

There is a little boy in seat 21A. I promised to give him an airplane model when he lands. When he lands soon, you can discuss with the flight attendant to prepare one for him."

Xu Cang thought for a moment: "Also, after the plane lands, if there is no unexpected situation, we will slide in with one engine and will not perform any evacuation or quick departure procedures. It will be the same as a normal carry. You do not need to perform any unconventional procedures.

The procedure is treated as a normal carry. In addition, if the airport arranges for us a remote aircraft seat, we will temporarily apply for a bridge. There are some communication problems now, and changing the aircraft seat may take some time, but you don't have to

Just worry, just wait. After landing, if any passengers ask about problems on the route, just answer that it is due to the weather, and don’t say anything else. Do you understand me clearly, Shuyue?"

Xu Cang said a bit too much at the moment, and Xia Shuyue was silent for a while before she could figure it out. However, she was a little confused: "Isn't it possible to get a remote plane position? Why do we have to wait for the bridge position?"

In fact, the captain Tan Heling didn't understand either. While controlling the plane, he tilted his head slightly to listen to what Xu Cang was saying.

"What could be wrong? The lightning strike point on this plane is obvious. We don't know what other problems there are on the fuselage. If it is in the far seat, passengers will probably look back at the plane after getting off. If

If you see any clues, some things are difficult to explain, so don’t get yourself into trouble. There are usually shelters on the walls of covered bridges, which is obviously better than no shelter at all." Xu Cang said at the end,

His tone was weak, and he looked like he was about to fall into a peaceful sleep at any moment.

Xia Shuyue nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Xu Cang was indeed thoughtful. Most of the people in the cabin now really thought that they just encountered severe weather, so they thought it was best to get off the plane.

After saying so many words at once, Xu Cang felt that his brain was running out of oxygen. He thought that it was time to exercise. His physical condition was really not good, and it would be easy for him to be overwhelmed by anything that was a little tiring.

.

Suddenly, after crossing a mountain range, a large plain came into view. Unlike the Gobi desert that we had flown over before, this plain was full of vibrant green, as if it were a paradise.

The entire northwest has an arid climate, and there are few such large-area plains. As the core city in the northwest, Urumqi naturally occupies the best land in this area. The plain in front of you is bounded by the Tianshan Mountains to the south and the Tianshan Mountains to the north.

The Gurbantunggut Desert is bounded by the Toutun River to the west and the remaining mountains of the Karazha Mountains to the east. In such a vast place, only a nice place like this is left in the middle.

"It looks like we're about to arrive!" Xu Cang yawned, turned to Xia Shuyue and said, "You go out first, call the co-pilot in, and make me a cup of coffee."

"Coffee, 111?"

111 means the ratio of coffee, water and sugar is one to one to one.

"Add two parts of sugar, otherwise it will be too bitter." Xu Cang doesn't like coffee, so he can only accept it if he adds more sugar.

Xia Shuyue quickly got up, put away the observer's seat with Xu Cang's help, and went out.

Not long after, the first co-pilot who had just been kicked out by Xu Cang came in again. He was quite surprised to see that the sun was shining outside, and even the Urumqi Airport was right in front of him.

He just wanted to continue, but Xu Cang stopped him.

Xu Cang felt that he was no different than a piece of trash now. He was so confused that he might as well let this substitute come in. The situation was urgent just now and his brain was overloaded and he couldn't handle it. Now that most of the problems have been dealt with, it should be

It can be dealt with.

The captain wanted Xu Cang to sit in front again, but looking at the way Xu Cang's eyelids were pressed up against his lower eyelids, he knew that he was probably very tired, so he didn't force it.

He still knew how to approach when the radio was disabled in both directions, and Urumqi Airport was not a special airport, and the airflow in this area was not particularly strong, so he was still confident of landing.

As soon as she changed seats, Xia Shuyue brought in the coffee. Xu Cang originally planned to wake up with coffee, but as soon as the hot coffee entered his stomach and warmed him, Xu Cang felt even more sleepy.

Cursing secretly that the coffee to refresh himself was just fooling people, Xu Cang held his forehead with one hand and tried hard to stay awake.

Not long after, the plane entered the airspace of Urumqi Airport. Originally, the captain planned to go down to a lower altitude and fly past the airport tower at low altitude to request landing. However, as soon as it approached the airport, something similar to a searchlight on the top of the tower came out for them.

The green light signal indicates that you can land. It seems that the airport has already received the news.

This was more convenient for the crew. Based on the wind direction and speed obtained previously, the captain chose a runway on his own, cut three sides and made a visual approach. The landing was completed smoothly. Xu Cang never said anything again from beginning to end.

One sentence.

He was still thinking in his mind that except for the captain's poor mental quality, he was still acceptable in other aspects.

After landing, according to Xu Cang's plan, they relied on a single engine for taxiing. In actual flight operations, one engine can completely taxi. Of course, in some special circumstances, such as encountering an uphill slope, then

It is indeed more troublesome to slide with a single engine, but this situation is indeed relatively rare.

After landing, because I didn't know which way to slide, the aircraft stopped on the departure path after detaching. Soon, the guided vehicle arranged by the airport drove over.

Originally, Xu Cang thought that it would be troublesome to get them a remote seat if they wanted to change. But in the end, the airport arranged a location for them near the bridge, which saved them the trouble.

After the plane approached the bridge and the engine was cut off, the captain and first officer breathed a heavy sigh of relief. They thought it was really hard to make money and almost turned it over.

Because this carry seemed too normal, and because Xu Cang explained in advance that there was no unusual behavior on the part of the flight crew, the atmosphere was quite harmonious when disembarking passengers. There were basically no problems with the aircraft, but they were more concerned about the subsequent compensation.

When everyone was done, for some reason, Xu Cang suddenly became more energetic and shouted: "Pack your things and get ready to get off the plane."

"Isn't it going to fly behind?" The first co-pilot sat in his seat, a little confused: "Isn't there still a section?"

The captain rolled his eyes: "You're still flying a hammer, let's go down and have tea."

The first officer looked dumbfounded: "Drinking tea, where are you going to drink tea?"
