Chapter 360 What is needed now is not questioning, but absolute obedience
At this moment.
The two Su-27s are still on their way.
The Air Force has moved quickly enough.
It only took three minutes from receiving the order to the time the fighter jet took off.
Fully compliant with emergency takeoff standards.
Stationed at Luliangchang Station is the 130 Flying Regiment of the 44th Division. This unit guards the east and west gates and protects the airspace throughout Yunnan Province. It is naturally an elite division.
So not only did the unit replace the Su-27 Flanker fighter jets imported from Lao Maozi more than ten years ago, but it also began to gradually phase out the Su-27 Flanker and replace the Su-27 Flanker fighter a few years ago. It has become a domestically produced flanker with more advanced avionics system - the J-11b fighter jet.
Currently.
Two flight groups of this flight group have been upgraded to the J-11b, and only one flight group is still flying the older Su-27 Flanker.
Today happens to be the time when the flying group is on combat readiness duty.
Due to relevant combat readiness regulations, all front-line troops under the Air Force must hold emergency takeoff drills regularly.
The purpose is to train the troops' rapid reaction capabilities.
According to the relevant drill plan issued by the Air Force, the emergency takeoff time of military aircraft on combat readiness duty should be within five minutes to pass, and within three minutes to be excellent.
The 130th Regiment serves as the fist force and elite division of the Air Force in Area J of Chengdu.
The emergency takeoff time has naturally been compressed to within three minutes.
But no matter how fast the fighter plane's reaction speed is, it cannot shuttle through space.
The straight-line distance from Luliangchang Station to Qianyang is about 400 kilometers.
No matter how fast the two Su-27 Flankers are, they can only maintain a speed of one thousand kilometers per hour at most.
After all, maintaining supersonic cruise status is the standard for fifth-generation aircraft.
Therefore, it will take at least more than 20 minutes for the two Su-27s to arrive in the Qianyang airspace.
More than twenty minutes later.
The day lilies are probably cold.
Cockpit.
Chen Bin stared at the instrument panel without blinking.
Now the altitude of the plane has dropped sharply to below 6,000 meters, and it is only about 150 kilometers away from Qianyang.
But the lower the plane was and the closer it was to its destination, the more nervous he became.
Too fast.
The speed of the plane is too fast.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the altitude of this Airbus A320 plummeted from 9,800 meters to 6,000 meters.
This is not an elevator.
It really can’t be done straight up and down!
Especially when airplanes arrive in low-altitude airspace, the weather conditions are complex and they may encounter more accidents.
At such a fast speed, even if it is hit by a bird the size of a sparrow, it may cause the entire plane to crash.
There is no possibility of survival.
However, as time continues to pass, the plane is getting closer and closer to Longdongbao Airport.
Chen Bin's heart was already in his throat.
The two eyes were bulging, staring at the dashboard.
In the captain's position.
Jiang Chen is holding the operating lever with one hand, and with the other hand, he has pushed the throttle valve lever to the bottom.
He glanced at the airspeed indicator first.
The aircraft speed remains at 850km/h.
As for the altitude of the aircraft, it is 5500 meters.
The aircraft navigator shows that we are still more than 130 kilometers away from Longdongbao Airport.
He looked away.
First, I pressed the button on the throttle valve lever to reduce the amount of fuel supplied to the aircraft.
Then gently pull the lever back and up.
Slow down the speed of the aircraft as it descends to altitude.
Then he turned to look at Chen Bin and said loudly, "The aircraft's rudder is lowered by 20 degrees and the flaps are raised by 5 degrees. We have to continue to descend and pull up the spoilers. We have to slow down."< br>
Smooth sound.
There was no trace of panic.
No way.
Jiang Chen can’t help but calm down. Now if even he is at a loss, then who can he rely on on the plane?
Is this the little co-pilot sitting next to me who has begun to sweat?
really.
Chen Bin seemed as if he didn't hear Jiang Chen's words.
Still staring at the dashboard without blinking.
When he saw that the speed of the plane was still at 800 miles, he finally couldn't help but turned to look at Jiang Chen, "The speed of the plane is too fast, you have to slow down the plane immediately."
"So I asked you to pull up the spoiler immediately, co-pilot, what I need now is not to question, but for you to completely obey my command." Jiang Chen replied immediately.
Chen Bin looked at this ridiculously young face.
Opened his mouth.
What do you want to say.
But when the words reached my lips, I swallowed them back.
I don’t know what’s going on.
Every time he saw this impossibly young but calm-looking face, his doubts slowly disappeared.
It is estimated that even Chen Bin himself did not realize that he actually put his life and the lives of everyone on the plane into the hands of the other party based on a few words of the other party.
Why?
Just because the other person is handsome?
Of course not.
It's the other person's confidence from the inside out.
So Chen Bin took a deep breath.
Then he immediately said, "Okay."
When he followed Jiang Chen's order and pulled up the plane's spoilers, the plane's speed indeed slowed down a bit.
Then Chen Bin adjusted the flaps and elevator degrees.
Jiang Chencai said again, "Contact the Rongcheng District Commander and tell them that we are not far from Qianyang. Should we continue to accept his command, or should we change the channel and contact Qianyang for the approach?"
If it is an ordinary flight.
When the altitude drops to 6,500 meters, you must switch the communication channel and contact the approach or high-altitude zone control.
But today is a special situation.
So now the altitude of the aircraft has dropped to about 5,000 meters, and it is still under the command of the Chengdu District.
"Yes."
Chen Bin agreed and immediately contacted the Rongcheng District Investigation Bureau.
Seeing how cooperative he was, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I focused all my attention on flying the plane.
He alone couldn't move this behemoth of dozens of tons with his hands and fingers. Without the assistance and cooperation of the co-pilot, he really had no confidence that he could land this thing safely on the airport runway.
Yes.
The most important person on every flight is the ‘captain’.
The first officer and other crew members only play a supporting role.
But whether it is the co-pilot or other crew members, it is not dispensable.
Especially the co-pilot.
It is an indispensable presence on every flight.
Otherwise all airlines are philanthropists? Will they spend so much money training and recruiting co-pilots?
"The Rongcheng District Controller responded. We temporarily accept his command and directly contact the Longdongbao tower at altitude 1000." Chen Bin hung up the conversation with the Rongcheng District Controller and turned around.
Jiang Chen nodded.
Continue to hold the throttle valve lever with your right hand and press the operating lever left and right.
Although the descent of this Airbus A320 was not as deep as before, it still pointed its nose down and maintained a downward dive.
A few minutes later.
Shenzhen Airlines flight zh8549 is less than 100 kilometers away from Longdongbao Airport.
For an aircraft with a speed of more than 700 miles, it only takes about ten minutes to travel one hundred kilometers.
Jiang Chen glanced at the altimeter again.
At present, the altitude of the aircraft has dropped below 4,000 meters.
"Check how much fuel is left on the plane, and then contact the Rongcheng District Investigation Bureau and ask if Longdongbao Airport has activated the emergency plan. When can we land?" Jiang Chen said loudly.

ps: I’m speechless. The two chapters I updated yesterday have been blocked, and they have been revised hundreds of times but have not been released. I really don’t know what I wrote. I couldn't get through the whole chapter of the plot of the treacherous one, so many writers said that my plot was rambling. I also wanted to write some interesting information, but as long as there was a little bit of interesting information, I would immediately close the book and block the whole process.
