On British Airways A-1414, the two captains were drinking coffee leisurely.
Captain Robinson was very calm, "Patience is important! Very important! When a lion is chasing you, the key question is not whether you run faster than the lion, but whether you run faster than your companion..."
Captain Wright understood it clearly, "We brought more fuel than we imagined this time, just to get a more favorable situation in this patient competition! I know the temper of the Gauls, they know everything, but they will never
Maybe to get rid of the weird temper of the rooster, so they must carry less oil than us!
As for the Hua people, their fuel tanks are limited, so they are destined to be the first to be forced to make a choice!"
No one thought that in a joint operation of the five permanent members, the final difference would be the size of the fuel tank. In this regard, those who are close will be suitable, and those who are far away will suffer!
Among the three countries that are relatively far away, the Americans and the Bears wisely chose to give up. There are many reasons. Ground threats are one thing. I am afraid they also guessed that they may not be able to fight themselves while waiting in the sky above Beirut.
There are two flights from China, so I won’t come at all!
Robinson pointed out the window, "Hua people are still too young in this regard! They don't understand some unspoken rules in international affairs. Of course, this is also a difference between the East and the West, a cultural difference! But now that we are here, this is
They have to face it!"
Wright smiled and said: "Rubin, I'm very curious. If the Hua people don't come here but fall somewhere else, what will we and the Gauls do? Turn the United Nations rescue into a continental rescue?"
Robinson laughed loudly, "No! Wright! You are still too kind! If the Hua people had not come, then we would not be here, and neither would the Gauls. This is the truth of the matter!"
Anyway, they were the first to quit, and they were the ones to be blamed. We were just going with the flow, and no one would blame us!"
Wright also shook his head. He was a little naive. If the Americans and Chinese people are gone, why should they be left here to take the blame? The United Nations was not founded by Asia, and their right to speak is limited; they don’t get much.
It took a lot of effort, but whoever does this is stupid!
Everyone knows that the first one to fall will definitely bear the greatest risk! No one knows whether there are rocket launchers waiting for them on the ground! It is a joke to rely on those Beirut people to maintain security. If they really have this
Without it, this country would not be what it is now.
Therefore, whoever lands first is the litmus test! The test is whether it is safe below?
When the plane enters the descent channel, it will be in a very dangerous environment for ten minutes. The altitude is low, the speed is slow, and it is visible to the naked eye... There are countless tall and short houses on the ground leading to the runway. Who knows what is inside the house?
What kind of people are hiding! As long as a person jumps up on the roof of a house and raises his rocket launcher, it is a race against fate!
Of course, a rocket launcher may not necessarily be able to hit an airplane! That thing can hit a tank or an armored vehicle accurately, but it may not be able to hit a high-speed moving object like an airplane!
The important thing is that you can use this to determine whether there is a threat below!
If not, then they will follow and land, it will be absolutely safe!
Yes, they turned around and went to the alternate airport! No one would blame them for not landing at an airport with a rocket launcher, which was absolutely safe!
That's why they can sit here and drink coffee leisurely!
Wright, "I'm curious, how long will the Huaguo pilot hesitate before he dares to land? Or, will he turn around and leave?"
Robinson didn't care, "That's a frivolous guy! You can tell it from the call on the general channel just now! He is self-righteous, exaggerated and hypocritical...Hua people generally rarely have such a character. I don't understand why such an important task should be handed over."
To such a person?"
Robinson seemed to know the Hua people very well, "If he were a traditional Hua pilot, this United Nations rescue mission would be boring. He would quickly leave after observing and find an alternate airport; as for this person, I also
I don’t think there is any difference between him and other Hua people. Maybe they will observe him for a while? In the end, they will choose to leave! That’s it, they don’t have the courage!”
Wright complimented: "Your achievements in psychology are unparalleled!"
Robinson smiled confidently, "So, I have never worried about the safety of this voyage, because there are at least three planes ahead of us..."
Wright joked, "Maybe four? The French have never extinguished their desire to conquer Europe. Unfortunately, their strength has made the gap between their dreams and reality further and further away!"
The two laughed loudly. It was a pleasant voyage, safe, and they could also watch other people's jokes, including cousins across the ocean, arrogant neighbors, rough and savage polar bears, and Easterners who were ready to make a move...
It doesn't get much more enjoyable than this!
...In LH-777, the two pilots are making final preparations for landing, various operations, and the preparation of various flight control systems!
Because this was destined to not be a normal landing, they did not follow the normal steps! What surprised Bei Haiyang was that Pang Lide, who had always followed the rules, did not raise any doubts about this!
"Since there are no normal flights taking off and landing at Beirut Airport during this period, there is no need for us to follow the normal tower procedures?" This was Bei Haiyang's test.
Pang Lide was not surprised, "This airport usually only has a few domestic flights, and they are irregular! They prefer to drive rather than take dangerous means of transportation like airplanes!
It was right not to notify the tower in advance, because we didn’t know what the connection was between the tower and those sectarian armed forces! I didn’t want the rocket launcher over there to be already aimed as soon as we lowered the altitude!
Just consider the message from the tower just now as an authorization!"
Bei Haiyang felt much relieved. What he was most afraid of in such a dangerous landing was any strategic dispute with the old man; one dispute was accidental, but two disputes will make the company doubt your ability to collaborate and your cooperative attitude.
But Captain Pang Lide's performance this time was completely different from before, which surprised him!
Perhaps guessing what he was thinking, Pang Lide smiled slightly and said, "I wonder why I don't follow the rules and regulations? In my life's flying career, there are two modes, one is the civil aviation mode that I have been flying for twenty years, and the other is the civil aviation mode that I have been flying for twenty years.
This is a military aircraft model that has been flying for ten years!
What you usually see is my civil aviation mode, so you find me annoying!
Now I think it should be the military aircraft mode, the provocative mode, the unscrupulous mode, and as long as I am good, I don’t care about you mode!”
Bei Haiyang grinned, "I didn't even know you had been in the army."
Pang Lide's eyes became sharp, "What do you think? Otherwise, why would they send me with you?"
