Chapter 39: Air Crash Terminator
Two days later, in the office of Luo Yong, vice president of Blue Sky Airlines, employees passing by the office unconsciously avoided it, and Luo Yong's roar could be heard from time to time.
"Lu Jinghua, are you out of your mind? You dare to gamble with a flight route?" Luo Yong's face was so angry that veins popped out, and he was about to hit someone.
Lu Jinghua stood across from Luo Yong across the desk, nodding and bowing to apologize: "Boss Luo, the Jianchuan-Yangcheng route is a useless route. Instead of wasting money on such a route, it is better to make a private agreement with Feiyu. Everyone wants a way out."
Luo Yong wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth. He had yelled so hard just now that a lot of saliva had sprayed out. "Don't you think this is childish and immature?"
"Then what should we do? Give money to the Transport Department for nothing? Mr. Luo, are you willing to accept this?" Lu Jinghua seemed to have been resentful of this for a long time: "Last year, the cost of handling a route to a second-tier airport exceeded one million. The Jianchuan-Yangcheng route involves Yangcheng, a first-tier airport, and the cost of handling it will be several times higher. There is no guarantee that we can get the route. There is no point in us fighting with Feiyu except wasting money. It's not a high-quality route resource. Is it necessary to invest so much?"
Luo Yong was so confused by Lu Jinghua's complaints that he didn't know how to curse. After all, what Lu Jinghua said was true. In China, a society where favors are everything, more than 90% of things need to be arranged, and arrangements require money.
As long as Blue Sky Airlines and Feather Airlines compete for the Jianchuan-Yangcheng route, it will cost a lot of money no matter what the result is. But I am unwilling to let these two companies withdraw without any reason.
Therefore, Lu Jinghua thought that instead of the two families living in such a twisted way, it would be better to handle everything in a trivial gambling.
"The general environment is like this, what can you do?" Luo Yong was too lazy to scold Lu Jinghua anymore: "No matter what, you can't make sarcastic remarks about the Transportation Department in front of Director Xu. The Aviation Safety Department and the Transportation Department are one family after all. What if your words get to the ears of the Transportation Department and they make things difficult for us?"
"Family members don't necessarily agree with each other. Director Xu is not the kind of person who gossips. Besides, we may not lose. Isn't it worth celebrating that we can get a route without paying a price?" As he spoke, Lu Jinghua took out a stack of paper materials from behind him like a magic trick and handed them to Luo Yong: "Boss Luo, take a look at this."
"What?" Luo Yong took the information and glanced at it: "Is this Q AR's data?"
Lu Jinghua nodded, his eyes sparkling, and his words were even more excited: "Boss Luo, just look at the data below fifty feet, don't look at the data before that."
"Below fifty feet, what's wrong?" Luo Yong reached for a pair of glasses and put them on. As he got older, the dense data made his eyes dizzy.
Flipping back, Luo Yong quickly found the data below . The QAR data was quite detailed, from the wind direction and speed, true airspeed, ground speed, angle of attack, bank, elevator, aileron and rudder input to N1 speed, lift rate, flap position, etc., laymen could not understand anything about these things, even an expert like Luo Yong needed to react.
Soon, Luo Yong discovered the problem and was confused: "Is there something wrong with the flap? Is it skewed?"
It can be seen from the QAR data that during the leveling phase below fifty feet, the flap handle had already been placed in the 40 position, and the right flap was successfully placed in the 40 position, but the left flap was stuck between flap 15 and flap 25. This is a very typical flap deflection failure.
"That's right. The engine-driven hydraulic pump of the AB system cannot work due to the flameout of both engines. Although it can be replaced by an electric pump in theory, some strange failures beyond the theory will occur when the hydraulic demand is extremely high, such as the problem of releasing one side of the flap." Lu Jinghua said: "In the ultra-low altitude environment, the inconsistency of the flaps on both sides caused a sudden roll, coupled with the huge drift angle of the aircraft itself..."
Luo Yong put the QAR paper data on the table: "It looks tricky!"
"It's more than just tricky." Lu Jinghua recalled the shock he felt when he saw the QAR data, and he was still amazed: "Boss Luo, you also looked at the data just now. One rudder push brought the plane back to the center line of the runway, and one pressure plate turned the wings to horizontal, not even one degree off. This method, this technology, even if you have been learning to fly since the womb, you may not be able to have such strength. Boss Luo, do you think this kid is weird and powerful?"
Luo Yong was open-minded about this and curled his lips: "After all, he is the only graduate with full marks in the history of the Flight Academy. It is not surprising that he has such talent."
"So, why are you so pessimistic? He definitely had the ability to become a captain three years and eleven months ago."
Luo Yong glared at Lu Jinghua fiercely: "What if something goes wrong? Three years and eleven months, this is not something that can be accomplished just by strength. If there is a problem in any link, this thing can't be done. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Lu Jinghua didn't care: "If Xu Cang succeeds, then everyone will be happy. If he fails and the company still holds it accountable, then it's my personal behavior that has nothing to do with the company, and I will resign. In other words, no matter what, the company will not suffer any losses."
“You…” Luo Yong was dumbfounded. It turned out that Lu Jinghua planned to win the best, and if he lost, he would just cheat, right?
…
In a small hotel in a village in Jianchuan, Xu Cang was lying on the bed without taking off his clothes, but his eyes were closed, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he was mumbling something incomprehensible, and it seemed that he was in a nightmare.
Suddenly, Xu Cang woke up, gasping for breath, wiping the sweat from his forehead, his heart still pounding.
"Why does it seem so real?" Xu Cang scratched his neck again and found that there was a lot of cold sweat on his neck. He looked very scared.
In the past two days, Xu Cang had read the manual to pieces in order to pass the theoretical exam in one go. Even if he didn't read it, there would be no problem. Under great mental pressure, Xu Cang fell asleep while reading it just now. After that, he had a dream that he was in a plane crash. The details in the dream were extremely realistic, which really scared Xu Cang.
During this period, in addition to focusing on the theoretical exam, Xu Cang was also thinking about the plane crash. He not only experienced the Feiyu Airlines 124 plane crash personally, but also changed the fate of the people on the plane.
Does this mean that Xu Cang can save the lives of future plane crash victims?
However, there was one thing that Xu Cang was more concerned about, and that was that the Feiyu Airlines Flight 124 crash seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with what he remembered.
