Chapter 320 Emergencies II
As pilots, the crew of this No. 9 transport aircraft are very clear about the severity of the consequences of the collision between the aircraft and birds. Even if the aircraft is landing at this time, the speed of the aircraft is very slow, but even so, at this speed, if these birds hit the aircraft, it will be enough to cause huge damage to the aircraft. Not to mention, once these birds are rolled into the engine, the consequences will be even more serious. At the least, it will cause serious damage to the engine, and at the worst, it will directly lead to direct damage to the engine, resulting in the destruction of the aircraft.
At the same time, it is precisely because the aircraft speed is very slow at this time that it is naturally much more difficult to control the aircraft. Even if you want to avoid these bird groups, it is impossible, because at this time the plane is less than a hundred meters away from these bird groups.
So all they did at this time was to pray that the birds and horses would not hit the plane, and at the same time, control the plane, and follow the original plan to let the plane descend, and prepare for the plane to lose power. Finally, report the situation here to the ground tower and make the tower equipped for rescue at any time.
However, their prayers were obviously ineffective. The plane quickly hit the flock of birds, and even the windshield of the plane directly hit two birds. The crew also clearly saw that several birds were rolled into the engines on both sides.
This made the crew very worried, fearing that the two TG-S002 engines on the plane would stop directly, so they would have to land without power.
Fortunately, since the plane was aimed at the runway at this time, even if the engine stopped working, with their technology, they were absolutely confident to land the plane safely on the airport.
However, it is obvious that these crew members were a little unnecessary. Because even though these two TG-S002 engines were swept into many birds and were relatively large birds, the engine did not go on strike because of this, and the engine was still very normal at this time. Even the engine protective cover, after being impacted, except for some blood stains caused by the impact, there was no abnormality.
This made the crew feel much more relieved, but at this time they were still a little worried. After all, there were not only one bird that just caught in! The crew clearly saw three birds rolling in one of the engines, while the other one was even more, at least four more. They did not see clearly the details.
So in this case, they would not naively think that the engine was not damaged. After all, under such circumstances, no matter which engine in the world, even the most advanced, safest and best-performance aircraft engine in the world, it is impossible to escape.
At this time, the engine can still work normally, and this level proves how outstanding the performance of this engine is.
At the same time, when the plane collided with these birds, the front windshield and skin of the plane had proved its excellent impact resistance. After all, it had been hit twice in a row on the front windshield just now, but the front windshield was still very good at this time, and there was no crack in the glass. At the same time, the crew of the nose skin did not feel that the wind was pouring in, which proved that the front nose skin of the plane had not broken either.
This made them feel relieved, but they did not expect that the nose of the plane would be intact in this accident. After all, this was not an impact from small birds, so they judged that the nose of the plane must have had many impact dents at this time.
Of course, when their modified No. 9 aircraft hit a flock of birds, the people at the airport were clearly seeing this scene. Compared with the crew, they did not know the situation of the plane at this time, so they were more worried about the situation of the plane than the crew.
Because from their sight, we can see that the plane passes directly through the birds, not only does the head of the plane impact the birds, but also the wings, tails, and engines have birds hitting them.
And they know more that according to their experience, generally speaking, if so many birds hit this plane, it is basically impossible for the plane to survive.
Therefore, as soon as the birds were seen hitting the plane, the airport tower immediately made continuous progress with the aircraft crew to determine the impact on the plane during the birds, or to determine whether the aircraft could still be operated at this time.
However, after obtaining contact with the crew, the tower staff at this time also calmed down. After all, the crew had already told the ground personnel clearly that the aircraft was still under control at this time, and there was no accident in the engine control system in various directions. In other words, the aircraft's control was still normal at this time and had no impact on non-maneuverable landing.
Soon, the plane successfully landed at this plateau airport under the control of the crew. Of course, the landing at the plateau airport is still very different from the landing at an ordinary plain airport. First of all, it is because the air on the plateau is thinner than the plains, so the running distance required for the aircraft to land is longer. Therefore, in general, the runway length of the plateau airport is much longer than that of the plain airport, and the runway of this plateau airport is naturally much longer than that of the runway of the general airport.
Moreover, when this No. 9 aircraft was only able to stop after slid for one thousand meters at the Plain Airport, even if it was fully loaded, the same was true. However, at this airport, the No. 9 aircraft was directly slid on the ground for nearly 1,500 meters before stopping. Moreover, this was the distance of the plane's sliding backward device after turning on the plane. If it was not turned on, according to calculations, it would take at least 1,800 meters to stop.
Therefore, when the No. 9 plane successfully landed and stopped, several rescue vehicles and fire trucks surrounded the airport. At the same time, the rescuers also rescued the crew members on board and the technicians of the plane out of the plane as soon as possible.
After all the personnel left the plane, professional ground crews began to inspect the situation of the plane.
However, after the local staff conducted a comprehensive inspection of the plane, they took a deep breath unexpectedly.
However, the reason why they were surprised was not that the plane was in bad condition, but that the plane was in great condition, which surprised them.
You should know that according to their steel inspection, there are at least a dozen traces of being hit by birds on this plane. After all, there are either the places hit by birds that hit by impact, or there are feathers on it.
