I'm going to knock your lungs out! What's going on?
An Airbus A319 passenger plane almost touched the scalp of No. 101 J-8FR as it descended. Under the influence of the huge airflow, Li Zhan almost failed to control the posture of the fighter plane.
This time I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat.
I actually ran to the wrong civil aviation airport!
He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, but the control personnel at the Duda Plateau Airport tower had already gone crazy. They had already seen the sudden appearance of the aircraft on the radar, but they called on the international general channel for a long time and there was no response. It happened to be
There was a flight about to land, and it was already at the fifth position.
Li Zhan happened to be directly under the Airbus A319 passenger plane, so the captain did not notice that there was a military plane under him until the tower reminded him to avoid it. But the problem was that he had already slid down and there was no way to avoid it. There were mountains on both sides.
Ah! The only option is to go around after clearing the field.
The tower control commander is a retired Air Force soldier. He made a bold decision and ordered the flight to land normally. Go-arounds at plateau airports are risky, and the weather here is complicated. It is best to land as soon as possible for safety reasons. The most important thing is that he
I saw the unidentified aircraft, which was obviously a military aircraft, slowing down significantly.
This is giving way.
When unable to make contact with the military aircraft, the tower control commander could only let the Airbus A319 land as soon as possible.
There's nothing I can do, it's so scary.
Li Zhan quickly lifted the combat status, immediately adjusted the frequency to the international general channel, and called the Duda Plateau Airport Tower, "Plateau Tower! I'm out of fuel, request to land immediately, over!"
"Military Aviation Yaodong Yao! You can't land now! There's a plane ahead!" the tower control commander said with eyes wide open.
Li Zhan had figured it out by now, and he flew to Duda Plateau Airport, which was separated by a mountain. This civil aviation airport and Duda Station were only separated by a mountain range of more than 5,000 meters high, with a station on the west side.
, the civil aviation airport is on the east side, and it has always been a matter of course.
There was probably a deviation in the azimuth parameters. After he came out of the canyon, he turned a few degrees eastward, and because the sun had set, which affected the visibility, he flew to the civil aviation airport on the east side dozens of kilometers away in a daze...
At this time, Li Zhan should quickly pull up and leave the controlled airspace of Duda Plateau Airport. However, the fuel gauge told him that there seemed to be no second option.
The fuel reserve was sufficient, but Li Zhan was too extravagant. He used afterburner twice to climb and fly levelly at supersonic speeds, and made many unplanned violent maneuvers, which led to excessive fuel consumption. Generally speaking, he would leave only two or three.
A margin of 100 kilometers or even 500 kilometers is provided to prevent unexpected events, but Li Zhan's flying style of wide open and close often only leaves himself with fuel for one go-around.
At this time, there was not enough fuel to climb and fly over thousands of meters high mountains to the Duda station dozens of kilometers away. Now that he had run nearly 100 kilometers more than planned, his fuel alarm was already going crazy.
Li Zhan lowered his airspeed to the slowest speed, and crosswinds came in waves. The fighter plane floated and swayed in the wind, staring at the Airbus A319 in front of him that was steadily and gracefully descending. At this time, the two planes were no closer than each other.
Hundreds of meters, if Li Zhan didn't reduce the airspeed to the slowest, he would hit the butt of the Airbus A319, which was getting slower and slower.
"Plateau Tower, my speed cannot be any slower. Please let the plane in front of you land and leave the runway as soon as possible. I want the taxiway to the end of the runway, over!" Li Zhan had to ask the Plateau Tower for instructions again.
The tower control commander knew very well that the military plane must not have enough fuel to go around, but there were hundreds of passengers on the landing flight, so he basically made the decision to ensure the flight landed safely first without hesitation.
Li Zhan had the same idea. He could not risk a go-around, but he could not affect the landing of civil aviation flights. There was a large amount of valuable data on the fighter planes. Such reconnaissance training operations could not be carried out frequently. Every time it was a very important data update.
If you take the risk of going around and crashing, you are worried about damaging the data on the fighter plane. Therefore, it is better to take the risk of making a mistake and make the wrong alternate landing at Duda Plateau Airport.
The last time I flew the No. 101 J-8FR, I was diverted to Wuxiangcheng International Airport because the canopy fell off. This time, the canopy did not fall off, but I confusedly ran the wrong way and ended up at Duda Civil Aviation Airport.
It can be seen that he also makes mistakes.
By the time the radar at Duda Station discovered that Li Zhan's course had deviated, it was already too late. Due to the obstruction of the mountains, Duda Station would not be able to call Li Zhan for a while, and the two airports were only two kilometers apart.
For more than ten kilometers, a combination of circumstances led to the current situation.
Li Zhan visually judged the distance of the Airbus A319, gritted his teeth, pressed the sticks and pointed the nose of the aircraft directly at the runway before the minimum landing speed, and trimmed it at a position of more than 20 meters. It looked like the butt of the military aircraft was about to sit suddenly on the runway.
It was stabilized at the last moment, and the controllers on the tower were frightened by this scene.
This is not the most thrilling moment.
A strong crosswind came over and lifted the right wing of the fighter plane. Li Zhan couldn't hold it down!
The fighter plane tilted to the left, and what I saw from the tower was that the tip of the left wing touched the runway!
Li Zhan's movements were very steady and gentle, and he slowly pushed the rudder while controlling the stick to slowly point the nose of the aircraft toward the northeast. The fighter plane kept its fuselage tilted and the nose of the aircraft at an angle of 30 degrees to the runway and slowly moved along the runway.
Slowly flying forward, the strange thing is that the fighter plane does not fly in the direction of the nose, but flies along the runway.
Those with experience in crosswind takeoff and landing can see that Li Zhan used the force of the wing to offset the wind force of the crosswind, allowing the fighter to maintain a straight flight under the strong crosswind. This is not a superb technique.
But it is not easy to do this when the fuselage is tilted.
Li Zhan was under pressure, not because he was afraid of falling on the runway, but because he was worried that something might happen to the two pl-12 air-to-air missiles under the wings. Landing with missiles is inherently more dangerous, and this is a civil aviation airport.
When it landed, the air-to-air missile went off and hit the passenger plane. That would be a big deal.
So he must land softly.
When the fighter plane was re-trimmed, it had already flown half of the runway. Li Zhan had to land as soon as possible. After confirming that the landing gear was lowered normally, his movements must be gentle to control the landing of the fighter plane. The moment it touched the ground slightly, Li Zhan let the fighter plane slide.
After going far away, he slowly lowered the nose landing gear. However, he did not lower the drag chute. Instead, he taxied towards the end of the runway and used the wheel brakes to slow down.
When the No. 101 J-8fr was gliding by, the Airbus A319 had only left the runway for tens of meters. From a distance, it looked like the military plane had crashed into the waist of the Airbus A319, scaring people away from prostatitis.
When the fighter plane came to a stop, the nose landing gear had already crushed on the grass. Li Zhan quickly reported the situation to Lazhi and Duda Station. After doing this, he quickly opened the canopy and jumped out.
After getting down, I immediately checked the two PL-12 air-to-air missiles under the wings. After confirming that there were no problems, I breathed a sigh of relief.
He walked to the most conspicuous place and waited, thinking about how to deal with the relevant personnel at Plateau Airport.
Why does it have to land at a civil aviation airport as soon as the J-8fr is launched to perform actual combat training missions?
