"Vice President of Operations, tsk tsk tsk, how could I have dared to think about it before! Although I won't be able to be a few years, I will have no regrets in this life." Qin Zongyang knew the reason why he was able to jump directly to the general manager of the flight department and jump to the position of vice president of operations.

The reason, and the only reason, can only be Xu Xian.

However, Qin Zongyang is really old, and even if he is appointed as the Vice President of Operations, he will not be able to work for a few years. It is estimated that Star Travel Airlines also took this into consideration and gave Xu Xian some face. Qin Zongyang served as Vice President of Operations.

It's fun, nothing happens for a few years.

Of course Qin Zongyang knows this, but with his ability, being able to hold the position of vice president of operations is already fulfilling his wish in this life, and he doesn't care whether the company truly recognizes his ability.

Seeing his master's ear-to-ear smile, Xu Xian was deeply affected. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, and then reminded him: "During this period of appointment announcement, you must be careful in your words and deeds. If something goes wrong, I won't be able to do it either."

manage."

"I know, I know." Although the matter has basically been settled when it comes to the public announcement period, there is really no guarantee that Qin Zongyang has made some mistakes and was reported by a jealous person. This would be more embarrassing.

The job announcement period is meant for others to find fault with. Even if the form is more important than the actual meaning, it is better to be careful and don't watch the cooked duck fly.

At this moment, the sound of high heels hitting the ground was heard. Xu Xian turned around and found that a group of flight attendants had come over to coordinate before the flight.

The steward first greeted Qin Zongyang with a very respectful attitude. After all, Qin Zongyang is not what he used to be. The announcement of the appointment of vice president of operations is still posted on the company's intranet homepage bulletin board. It is basically a done deal.

After the flight attendants checked that the name on the mission letter was correct, they handed it back to Xu Xian.

At this time, Xu Xian's level is the seventh co-pilot, which is the senior co-pilot. His name is no longer in the co-pilot column, but after the senior co-pilot, that is, senior F/O. At this time, Xu Xian is

Being able to assume the duties of a cruise captain is to temporarily exercise the powers of a captain during the cruise phase.

Every cabin crew member in the cabin department knows that Xu Xian, a boss who has been promoted and is riding a rocket, is familiar with it. Although Xu Xian is young, he can talk better than Qin Zongyang, the future vice president of operations.

However, Xu Xian has a gentle face and is a refreshing breeze to get along with, so he does not make the flight attendants feel any pressure.

"Mr. Qin, there is nothing wrong with the mission statement, can you...give me some instructions?" the flight attendant smiled.

Qin Zongyang's fingers were clasped on the pre-flight preparation card handed over by the steward, and he was about to pull it over, but the corner of his eye suddenly caught sight of Xu Xian who was sorting out the information. Suddenly, he changed his mind and put the pre-flight preparation card

The card was pushed in front of Xu Xian.

"Let our newly promoted Captain Xu Xian coordinate!" Qin Zongyang smiled kindly. The thin pre-flight preparation card seemed to represent a kind of inheritance. At this moment, Xu Xian could really

Standing alone. No matter in terms of strength or technical level.

Xu Xian was originally packing paper information about the flight into his bag, but unexpectedly a yellow card suddenly slipped into his field of vision, followed by Qin Zongyang's voice asking Xu Xian to coordinate before the flight.

"Me?" Xu Xian didn't expect this: "Master, I haven't hired a captain yet, how can I be allowed to do pre-flight coordination?"

Xu Xian has been flying for so many years, and he knows the format, contents and precautions of pre-flight coordination very clearly. It is not impossible for Xu Xian to do pre-flight coordination. However, in principle, pre-flight coordination should be

The responsible captain will do it, but this time although Xu Xian will sit in the captain's left seat, the responsible captain is still Qin Zongyang.

"You're already flying in the left seat. Can you do the pre-flight coordination, or should I do it? Letting you fly in the left seat is to help you adapt to the role of captain. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up." Qin Zongyang urged.

In fact, what Qin Zongyang did is not a rare thing. When many masters take their apprentices to fly in the left seat, they will let their apprentices carry out pre-flight coordination on their behalf, even though in theory the responsible captain is himself.

This is a default rule, and it means that the instructor no longer regards him as a co-pilot, but as a captain.

In fact, as long as you pass the bureau's left-seat simulator inspection, at least in the eyes of the bureau, you are the captain. As for whether the company gives you the title of captain, the bureau does not care.

In other words, Xu Xian just needs the company to give him the title of captain. In fact, he is already a captain because he already has an airline transport license.

As for the license used by the co-pilot, it is a commercial transport license, that is, a commercial license.

The difference in license represents the most fundamental change. This is the most essential difference!

Xu Xian glanced at the flight attendants surrounding him, put down the information he was packing, and scratched his fingers on the table without leaving any trace. After a brief exchange of thoughts, Xu Xian's fingers touched the pre-flight preparation card.

Press and hold gently...

There is a line of small words on the right side of the header of the pre-flight preparation card. This preparation card is for the reference of the responsible captain only!

At this moment, Xu Xian felt the improvement in his thinking brought about by the change of identity. He let out a long breath, put aside the trace of confusion he had just felt, grabbed the pre-flight preparation card in his hand, turned to the left, and faced the steward

Smiling slightly: "Pusher, then I will be responsible for pre-flight coordination?"

The flight attendant was honored and nodded slightly: "Yes, Captain!"

...

In the cockpit, Xu Xian was doing cockpit preparations. In fact, according to the rules, this kind of work should be completed by the first officer. In cockpit preparation, the captain has much less preparation work than the first officer.

However, Qin Zongyang started playing with his mobile phone as soon as he got on the plane. He had no consciousness of being the right seater. There was no way, so Xu Xian did all the things for the left and right seats by himself.

The requirements for co-pilots in Star Travel Airlines have always been that, except for take-off and landing and handwheel taxiing, which require the necessary intervention of the captain, the co-pilot must be able to complete all other stages independently.

Only such a co-pilot can be considered a qualified co-pilot.

Therefore, it is quite normal for the co-pilot of Star Travel Airlines to do the work of two people. At least Xu Xian has been doing this all the way, and he doesn't think there is any problem.

From the moment Xu Xian entered the plane, he did everything by himself, including refueling, filling out paperwork, preparing the cockpit, electronic release, and electronic manifest. It seemed that Xu Xian had changed the same as before except for changing his seat.

Since the flight time was very good, it was still dark when Xu Xian had almost prepared the cockpit. Qin Zongyang, who had been playing with his mobile phone for a long time, glanced at Xu Xian who finally stopped, and squeezed out a few words between his teeth:

"Done? It's pretty quick!"

"Master, I don't ask you to help me prepare the cockpit. At least help me go down and get the fuel bill. I am running up and down, and I have to prepare the cockpit. It is very troublesome." Xu Xian complained. He was in the preparation room just now.

The feeling of being a captain that was aroused in me was completely extinguished when I got on the plane. How could I be a captain? I was just a busy co-pilot.

Of course, Xu Xian doesn't expect Qin Zongyang to help him like the right-hand passenger. It's not a big deal to go to the airport to get a fuel bill. It's just a few steps, and it doesn't cost Qin Zongyang's life.

.

"I know, I know, don't talk about it, I'll get it next time." Qin Zongyang glanced at the clock from the corner of his eyes: "It's not the pick-up time yet, right?"

"No? What's wrong?" This time they entered the airport early, and the parking space was close to the security checkpoint, so when they got on the plane, they were twenty minutes earlier than the scheduled arrival time of Star Travel Airlines.

Xu Xian hurriedly got it off. It was less than an hour before departure time, and it was still early in the morning before the standard pick-up time.

Qin Zongyang took out a thin cigarette from nowhere and held it in his mouth. His lips moved, making the cigarette move up and down: "Everyone who works the early morning shift is confused. Hurry up and light a cigarette to refresh yourself."

Qin Zongyang only smokes thin cigars and never touches normal-thick cigars, let alone thicker and stronger cigars.

"Keep an eye on it for me, and pull up the curtain if guests are arriving." Qin Zongyang ordered. He was afraid that he would get slapped on the head, and he would not know when guests were being served, making the same mistake as He Changyuan.

"Two puffs are enough, but if you smoke for a long time, the smell of smoke will leak out, and it will not be good for guests to smell it later."

Qin Zongyang couldn't listen to Xu Xian's nagging and kept nodding: "I know, I know, don't say anything. I'll just take a few puffs to refresh myself. It won't take long."

With that said, he took a paper cup and handed it to Xu Xian.

Xu Xian was also an understanding person. He smiled helplessly, picked up his own pure water and poured some into the paper cup. The water in the paper cup would extinguish the cigarette in a short while. After he finished smoking, he threw the cigarette butt into the water to eliminate any possibility of fire.

.A veteran like Qin Zongyang is already familiar with such small details.

"By the way, are you still single? When will you find someone to accompany you?" Qin Zongyang is still very concerned about his apprentice's lifelong events, and he will ask about it every now and then. Before, he always thought that Xu Xian would be with Wen Jingshu, but in the past year or so

In the past, there seemed to be no substantial progress.

Young people's views on marriage and love today are very different from those of their time, so he just asked casually. Xu Xian didn't want to talk, and he wouldn't ask in depth, so as not to annoy others.

It was obvious that Qin Zongyang's question was quite annoying. Xu Xian just glanced at him, and Qin Zongyang immediately closed his mouth knowingly.

Taking out a lighter, Qin Zongyang was about to light it for himself when a head popped out of the cockpit door. It was a ground suit.

When the ground service personnel looked into the cockpit, they were confused for a moment. Why are the ones with three stripes on the left and the ones with four stripes on the right? Are they sitting backwards?

As for the cigarette hanging from Qin Zongyang's mouth, the ground service personnel have long been accustomed to it.

In the end, the ground service personnel asked Qin Zongyang, who had four stripes: "Captain, shall we start classes on time?"

Qin Zongyang did not answer, pointed at Xu Xian, and said vaguely: "Ask him!"

Xu Xian had no choice but to ask the ground service personnel: "Have you been notified of the delay?"

Generally, if there is a delay, the ground service personnel will know about it. In fact, usually the operation control side will also know, but these people in the company are too lazy to communicate with the crew at all unless there is a serious delay.

. As a result, after waiting for the passengers to board, I contacted the clearance department. There was flow control directly through the clearance, so I couldn't leave. Once the plane was on the plane, people were trapped in a closed cabin, and the passengers might even cause trouble.

Xu Xianxin doesn't belong to the group of people in the company, so it's better to ask for help himself.

"We have not received any delay notice," the ground service said.

"Then click on it?" Xu Xian deliberately raised his voice and asked Qin Zongyang.

Qin Zongyang said impatiently: "You decide!"

"Then just follow the instructions and go up normally." Xu Xian said directly to the ground service staff this time.

"Okay." After receiving Xu Xian's final decision, the ground service personnel retracted their heads and ran to the covered bridge in a hurry.

"Stop treating yourself as a co-pilot. Think about what the captain should do. Don't keep asking me." Qin Zongyang muttered. Seeing the ground service personnel walking away, he raised his eyebrows and finally ordered it for himself.

It could be seen that Qin Zongyang was in a good mood, with a cigarette in his mouth, humming a little song, and almost dancing.

Xu Xian originally wanted to squint, but the faint smell of smoke coming from Qin Zongyang made Xu Xian choke. He was going to open the side window on his side a small crack to let the smoke drift out.

But Xu Xiangang put his left hand on the handle of the side window, and subconsciously glanced at the cabin door. Suddenly he saw the door of the corridor bridge next to the cabin door being opened, and two people came in.

As if his whole body had been electrocuted, Xu Xian shouted in a low voice: "Security Supervisor, the Security Supervisor is here!"

Xu Xian only knew one of the two people who came up here, and that was Zhang Qingyu from the Safety Supervision Department, but it was enough to know this one person, the other one should also be from the Safety Supervision Department.

"What?" Qin Zongyang was so frightened that he almost stopped holding the cigarette in his mouth, and his old face suddenly changed color. He stood up, supported the back of Xu Xian's chair with his left hand, pressed the sunshade with his right hand, and leaned his upper body on Xu Xian's side.

I glanced towards the cabin door, and suddenly cold sweat broke out on my back.
