Rebirth: Fight For Life

Chapter 655: unpowered forced landing

   Chapter 655 Forced Landing Without Power

  Gu Song did not hesitate, and directly called He Ting to ask.

   "I just set off from Donglian, and I'm still on the plane. I had an emergency landing on takeoff, and a forced landing on landing. I want to transfer to Nanjiao Airport, why is there an emergency mission here? Now that the fuel is tight, it is my turn to make an emergency landing."

   "What?" On the phone, He Ting's voice inexplicably increased a lot, "You're running out of jet fuel?"

   "I can't tell you more, just tell you this situation. I don't feel very well, I'm afraid it's coming at me, it's a coincidence."

   He Ting said, "I'll report immediately and arrange for an investigation. Where are you going to make an emergency landing?"

   "Now we can only go back to Yanjing International Airport."

   "I'll contact you right away!"

   He Ting hung up the phone, Gu Song looked solemn. As he said, it was such a coincidence that Gu Song would definitely think about whether it was for himself, after all, this is such an extraordinary moment.

   He went directly to the cockpit. Private jets are not as sophisticated as civil airliners. Gu Song entered the cockpit and asked, "How is the situation?"

   Zhao Hongtao didn't care to answer him, the first officer was talking to the tower, and the information Gu Song was worried about would be in it.

   When preparing to land from Nanjiao Airport, the remaining fuel of the plane has reached the 30-minute warning line. Now the situation is more critical, the captain has urgently called the tower for the situation.

  The plane is passing over Yanjing, and in just a few minutes, it will arrive over Yanjing Airport.

   "Yanjing Tower, Golden Deer 1013, we have already flown over the city of Yanjing and are about to arrive at the airport. The fuel level is critical and the engine is about to stop! Please enter the runway route."

   This is the result of timely dispatch after the emergency landing request was communicated to the control tower of Yanjing Airport, so that the Gulfstream G450 can arrive at the airport most efficiently.

   "Golden Deer 1013, permission to land, keep altitude 500."

   "Maintain the altitude of 500, may not be able to go around, request fire trucks and ambulances after landing, Golden Deer 1013."

   "Golden Deer 1013, it has been notified. The ground is calm and the runway 01 can land."

   "Runway 01 can land, Golden Deer 1013."

After listening to Zhao Hongtao, he leaned into Gu Song's ear and said softly, "The landing gear of the previous flight that made an emergency landing was faulty. Now there are fire and ambulance forces on runway 19, so it is arranged on runway 01 next to it. This runway is sufficient. Long, just in case. The good news is that we're near the airport and can land on a standard runway. The bad news is that the engines can stop anytime now."

  Gu Song was already mobilizing this knowledge in his mind.

  The plane hovered over Yanjing Airport for a long time, flying from the north to the south of Yanjing City, and because it was unable to land and turned back again, the remaining fuel was greatly strained.

  Once the engine is stopped, the avionics system of the aircraft can only rely on the battery to supply electricity for a short time.

   The most troublesome thing is that when the engine stops, it means that there is no power to land. In the case of losing thrust, if you want to make a forced landing, you can only land at a suitable speed and angle by constantly adjusting the attitude of the aircraft like a glider.

   And even if you successfully land on the runway, it will be more difficult to brake because of the loss of thrust, and there is a danger of overrunning the runway.

   So the good news is that the plane is near the airport. Even if the engine is stopped, it can maintain electricity and hydraulic pressure for a while, and control it through instruments and rudder surfaces.

  If even backup power and hydraulics are lost, the plane is completely out of control.

  The Gulfstream G450, as a high-end business jet, is also equipped with a ram air turbine to deal with this extreme situation, which can make up for some power gaps.

   Now we have to see if the captain can succeed all at once.

  Because of the remaining fuel, I am afraid it will run out before the first landing.

   "Golden Deer 1013, the lower height is 300, and the landing gear is put down in advance."

   "The lower altitude is 300, and the landing gear is lowered in advance, Golden Deer 1013."

  Gu Song saw the captain's solemn expression, there was not much fuel left, and he had to do a lot of operations to turn the plane from a state of high-altitude and high-speed level flight to a low-altitude and low-speed attitude slightly raised.

   "Please hover at low altitude to adjust the attitude, the engine is about to stop, Golden Deer 1013."

   "Golden Deer 1013, has been cleared, good luck."

  Gu Song looked at the numbers on the dashboard, looked at the nervous expressions of the captain and co-pilot, and took a deep breath.

   Even if he has a neural implant analog information system and an upgraded signal conversion helmet, he cannot do anything with micro-manipulation by invading the airborne avionics system.

  Although the flight control system and flight management system of the new aircraft have been designed with a bus as the main body, they do not read control commands from the bus. The control commands are directly read from the joystick and CDU. Although Gu Song is in the cockpit, he is facing a forced landing without power. Can he still adjust the parameters manually through the CDU?

   The reason why he and Zhao Hongtao are still on the plane is because Gu Song has never been able to learn to skydive.

   Everything can only rely on the captain's operation.

  …

  In the control tower of Yanjing Airport, the commander stood behind the ATC responsible for the forced landing of the Gulfstream G450 business jet, frowning.

  This plane is also a frequent passenger at Yanjing Airport, and he doesn't need anyone to say hello, he also knows who is on the plane.

   Today is not a good day, there were two consecutive forced landings in just one hour.

   The previous landing gear failed, and it has already landed successfully with the captain's technology. Although the bottom of the plane has changed beyond recognition, but fortunately only injured.

   Now this… run out of fuel.

  Looking from the tower, runway 19 is still being cleared. Above the runway, only this small plane was adjusting its attitude.

  The landing gear is down, next…

  ATC called again: "Golden Deer 1013, the ground is still windy, according to the aircraft situation, the visual approach to runway 01."

   "Visual approach runway 01, Golden Deer 1013."

  G450 circled down again, gliding to the end of the runway, ready to turn back. Look at the altitude, this is the final landing.

   Now that the plane has slowed down, the ram air turbine can no longer provide much power. If in the end even electricity and hydraulic pressure are gone, the danger level increases exponentially.

   Hope this plane is like the previous one, the pilot has enough level.

  …

   On the plane, Gu Song and Zhao Hongtao had returned to their seats, ready to meet the impact.

  The flight attendants were very nervous, but they were still calm.

   Now this speed is much faster than the normal landing. Gu Song, who has traveled on it many times, can feel the speed of retreating from the building and the ground outside the porthole.

  The best state is that the angle of the plane landing is good enough to support the plane with the landing gear.

   Fortunately, this is a small plane.

   But it's not good, it's not a big plane, in case it rolls over because of the reaction force and angle when landing...

   There is no way to go around, only this chance!

  Through the porthole, you can already see the runway ahead, and the altitude has dropped enough.

  Gu Song did not have any random thoughts, the neural implantation simulation information system was working, so that he was in a state of reason, ready to deal with everything that might come.

   Fortunately, Gu Song knew that the next period of time might be the most sensitive time for the opponent, and he had all the protective measures on his body.

   How much... It can play a buffer role, the armor I made at that time...

   Right at this moment, the plane first trembled slightly, and then suddenly leaned forward abruptly.

  Gu Song was pushed forward by inertia, what he thought in his mind was: the front landing gear is probably hung up, and now it is...prostate brake?
