If the altitude of the aircraft is too high when it approaches, it is actually not a big problem for a normal landing; at most, it can be pushed to fly again, and then it can be done again to correct the approach altitude.
Landing an airplane is a technical task and is more difficult than taking off. If you land too early and the landing point is too far behind the runway, you may overshoot the runway. These are all flight accidents and may cause casualties of varying severity, or even the aircraft may be destroyed.
People die.
Captain Segoshi is an old captain with extremely rich driving experience. This is also the tradition of the pilot structure of All Island Air. He can slide the plane over 200 kilometers accurately and accurately in bad weather and without power.
The ability to find an airport runway is real, and another person may not be able to do it.
But it is precisely because he is avoiding the mountains on land that he does not dare to perform normal operations without power. He must try to maintain his height as high as possible and does not dare to drop too much because he cannot pull up!
He successfully aligned himself with the runway. The only problem was that the altitude was a bit high! This was something that was difficult to avoid. He had to make a choice between crashing into a mountain and making an emergency landing.
When he saw him running, he immediately realized his problem! Before, he was desperately trying to maintain the altitude, but now he was desperately trying to lower the altitude. What a fickle thing in the world!
"Flap position 80."
"Flap position 80!"
“Full spoilers!”
"Full spoilers!"
"Airbrake 50."
"The airbrake is half open!"
"Intermediate automatic braking!"
"Intermediate automatic braking!"
Captain Sekoshi and co-pilot Miura Naganobu cooperated very well. They are both experienced and mature pilots. They did not mess up their position in such a critical situation! They had to land this time, and there was no possibility of a re-flight!
When landing, the plane has a certain angle of attack and lands with its head raised; so no matter how impatient you are, you cannot land with the nose down! Because the nose landing gear cannot support the huge impact force generated when the plane lands, this can only be done by
The main landing gear on the rear belly will bear it!
The huge 959 was full of pressure as it approached, but there was no sound at all, which brought a different kind of weirdness to the on-site staff, the journalists who were fighting with each other, and the control personnel on the tower!
1306 has passed the top of the runway and is still 200 feet above the ground! Although it is indeed falling, the speed of descent is not enough for it to touch the ground when the runway is exhausted!
The runway they landed on was Narita Airport's longest runway, Runway 03, which was 4,200 meters long. It seemed very long, but to the planes whizzing by, it only took a few dozen seconds!
Sekoshi had fully opened the spoilers and speed brakes, but the huge aircraft responded very slowly. In an instant, one-third of the runway had passed, and they were still 70 feet above the ground...
The only option is to take risks!
Captain Segokoshi pushed the nose of the plane down slightly, and the plane began to dangerously transition from angle of attack to level flight, with the nose of the plane drooping!
With the cooperation of the two people, 1306 finally landed two-thirds of the way down the runway. At this time, the aircraft's attitude was almost horizontal. The main landing gear just made a harsh tire friction sound, and the nose landing gear landed heavily!
This is a frightening moment. The reporters may not know what it means, but the controllers on the tower know that this is a moment of life and death. Under the huge impact, once the nose landing gear cannot support and breaks, it will immediately cause death.
disaster!
But fortunately, the nose landing gear withstood the test, and the plane began to fly smoothly on the runway!
"They can't stop with just the brakes!" Masao Kawahara shouted!
The landing brake of an aircraft on the runway is determined by several aspects: engine thrust reverse, automatic braking, speed brakes, spoilers... Among them, engine thrust reverse makes the greatest contribution to stopping the aircraft, but the problem is that they have no engine power now!
The most terrible thing is that although the wind and rain have become lighter, the ground is slippery. If they only rely on brakes and speed brakes, unless they touch the ground at the top of the runway...
Under the huge inertia, no force can stop Flight 1306 from rushing forward!
The two pilots desperately stepped on the tail rudder and adjusted the automatic brake to the maximum after the speed dropped slightly. However, they still could not stop the plane from running wildly on the slippery runway.
They looked desperately at the end of the runway, where the lawn was approaching them quickly, and the speed had just dropped a hundred knots!
"Hold tight!"
The live scene of 1306 overrunning the runway was thrilling to the entire island nation! They had never been exposed to a real air crash, so all this was so shocking! People were stunned!
As soon as the plane ran into the lawn, the passengers in the entire cabin felt like they were driving at high speed through countless isolation strips. Everything was shaking, people were shaking, things were shaking, and items in the suitcases were flying around.
The belts were tightly restrained, and this alone would cause countless casualties in the cabin!
The grass is the best braking belt for the wheel, but this kind of braking belt is not very gentle. This time, the front landing gear could no longer withstand such an impact, and broke into two parts when it bumped, and the entire front landing gear
The body began to slide the shovel against the lawn...
Immediately afterwards, the plane tilted to the left, and the left wing hit the grass and broke!
The plane rolled on the spot under this force... and finally came to a complete stop!
Fortunately, the fuselage hasn't broken yet?
Dozens of ambulances followed the plane as soon as it landed, running across the runway and rushing into the lawn...
Less than ten seconds after 1306 came to a complete stop, the first fire truck to arrive had already started foaming, and countless foams instantly covered all parts of the fuselage!
This is a necessary procedure, because the most dangerous thing about such an emergency landing is a fire caused by fuel leakage! Aviation fuel is extremely powerful. Once the fire spreads, the passengers who were stuffed in the canister cabin would have no chance of survival!
Amid the overwhelming foam coverage, emergency personnel were already rushing upwards with demolition tools! It was a good thing that the fuselage was not disconnected, but it was also troublesome, because it was not sure whether the cabin door could open normally under a violent impact?
With the efforts of the emergency personnel, two doors were finally opened. The rescuers did not care that the plane was still in danger of catching fire and exploding. They had to go in and save people!
Because everyone in the cabin was so shaken that they lost the ability to move on their own!
...On the tower, everyone watched this thrilling incident happen before their eyes, but they were unable to undo it!
An expert from the emergency department comforted everyone, "Based on my experience, it is very likely that everyone will be injured, but the number of deaths will not be many! It will probably be much better than Flight 961..."
No one answered, and everyone felt very heavy. It was an accident to hurt one person, let alone so many people!
Masao Kawahara quickly pulled himself out of the disaster in front of him and shouted:
"There is another 256, where did it fall?"
Nomura Shota's weak voice said, "They said they are still circling..."
