Chapter 1 Rebirth
Jianchuan Airport work area, Blue Sky Airlines flight preparation room.
Ten o'clock in the morning is not the peak time for flights to depart, and there are only three people in the entire preparation room. These three people are gathered around the same table. They should be a crew.
It was spring outside, and everything was agitated. But the captain of the flight crew, Instructor Wang Qiang, felt that the co-pilot in front of him, Xu Cang, was even more agitated. Since they met, Xu Cang had been laughing for no apparent reason, and Wang Qiang couldn't figure out what he was laughing at.
"Xu Cang, do you know that today is your route inspection? If you fail, you will most likely be transferred to ground work." Wang Qiang really couldn't stand Xu Cang's playful attitude. Even though he looked down on Xu Cang, he still reminded him.
Xu Cang's smile never disappeared . He should be happy because he was reborn!
Just yesterday, Xu Cang, who was supposed to have died in a car accident while trying to save someone and was caught in an explosion, suddenly found himself reborn 20 years ago. It took him a full half day to make sure that he was not dreaming, and that God really gave him a chance to live again.
According to Xu Cang's memory, he should be in a completely bad period at this stage. After graduating from the flight academy and joining the airline, Xu Cang indulged himself like a student who had just taken the college entrance examination, so much so that he failed the proficiency check three times in a row, setting a record.
In the history of Blue Sky Airlines, no pilot had ever failed the proficiency check three times. In addition, Xu Cang usually did not cooperate with the fleet at all. The leaders of the flight department could no longer tolerate Xu Cang and directly requested an evaluation route inspection of Xu Cang.
If Xu Cang performed well in the route inspection, he could be given another chance. But if Xu Cang still performed poorly, the flight department would consider depriving him of his flying qualifications and transferring him to a ground position.
To be honest, any normal pilot would be nervous when encountering such a career-threatening route inspection. However, Xu Cang acted a little too relaxed.
Xu Cang was certainly not afraid, as he was already the chief pilot of the Civil Aviation Administration before his rebirth. Although the 737 has gradually declined in later generations, its foundation is still there. How could it not handle a small route inspection?
"Instructor, I know. I will definitely fly well this time." Xu Cang responded obediently.
Wang Qiang hummed, "Your position is low, so I won't make it difficult for you. As long as you fly the program well and there are no major problems with the operation, I will sign for you."
Although Xu Cang was extremely confident in his ability to manipulate things and didn't need Wang Qiang to go easy on him, Xu Cang was tactful and thanked him repeatedly because the other party was kind-hearted.
Wang Qiang looked at the time and saw that there was still some time before the approach time, so he hooked his finger at Xu Cang. Xu Cang quickly understood and took out the route inspection work sheet from the flight box and handed it to Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang took it and glanced at it, then asked casually, "Have you read all the theories recently?"
Xu Cang answered subconsciously: "I watched it last night."
"Hmm?" Wang Qiang raised his eyelids: "You mean cramming at the last minute?"
"No, no, no, I mean I watched it carefully last night, and I kept watching it before." Xu Cang hurriedly evaded the question.
After being reborn yesterday, he didn't sort out his memory until the evening . Knowing that there was a route inspection the next day, he temporarily reviewed his theoretical knowledge, because the route inspection also included an oral exam.
However, when he started reading the flight manual, he found that many of the contents were familiar. After a brief recollection, he remembered that before joining the company, he had spent several days reading various flight manuals in order to prepare for the ATPL exam.
Other candidates just memorized the past exam questions, and almost no one memorized the flight manual because there were too many of them. However, if you only memorize the exam questions, there will always be a lot of omissions. In order to ensure the passing rate, Xu Cang naturally read the flight manual to be safer. The manual he read at that time also has a lot of overlap with the current 737 manual.
Xu Cang worked so hard back then not because he was very diligent, but because he hoped to pass it once and then enter the airline smoothly, and then just lay down and do nothing. The contents of the manual he had memorized before were never used again, and naturally became blurred over time. However, after he was reborn and picked up the manual again, many familiar memories began to become clear again.
As for why Xu Cang gave up, it was simple, because he didn't like flying at all, or to be more precise, he still didn't like flying. He entered the flight academy purely because of his parents' pressure.
In order to get the fiercely rebellious Xu Cang to agree to major in flight technology, his father made a promise to Xu Cang that as long as he joined the airline, his life would no longer be controlled. Therefore, after Xu Cang graduated from the flight academy and joined the airline, he fulfilled his promise with his parents, and his subsequent bad life was also a protest against his parents.
If Xu Cang had not been reborn, his mother would have died of lung disease in about two or three years. This would have been a turning point in Xu Cang's life. Since then, Xu Cang began to face up to his talent, and eventually grew from a willful and bad pilot to the chief pilot of the bureau.
However, since he was reborn, he would not allow his mother to die of illness. In addition, he also had to find his future wife, Qin Xin.
In short , he still has a lot to do.
Wang Qiang saw Xu Cang was in a trance and knocked on the table: "What is the electrical load limit of the APU?"
"Ah?" Xu Cang was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Wang Qiang to start the oral interview right away. However, he was not panicked and immediately answered: "41,000 feet."
"Where is the Qi induction?" Wang Qiang asked.
"17,000."
"Power supply and air supply..."
"It depends on whether we are on the ground or in flight." Xu Cang responded easily: "On the ground, it's 15,000 feet, and in flight it's 10,000 feet."
Wang Qiang's eyes lit up. These questions about APU were not very complicated, but they were not easy to understand. Originally, Xu Cang had to answer one or two questions to pass the oral test. Unexpectedly, Xu Cang answered so beautifully, without any mistakes.
"Xu Cang, you seem different from the rumors ." Wang Qiang looked Xu Cang up and down. He could see that Xu Cang was quite confident when he answered just now, without any hesitation.
If not for the outrageous rumors about Xu Cang that could be easily heard in the company, Wang Qiang would even think that Xu Cang was a diligent and studious pilot.
He pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked softly: "Then what high-frequency flight is prohibited in our company?"
As soon as these words came out, the first co-pilot, who was playing with his phone out of boredom, suddenly looked up. He first looked at Instructor Wang Qiang, and then at Xu Cang.
Xu Cang frowned slowly: "Teacher, this question is not in the oral exam outline, right?"
