On February 27th, 2005, at 2 1:30, the flight CK226 executed by Captain Ni arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport from Anchorage, which was his last flight before retiring. The captain with 44 years of flying experience is far from the blue sky.
Ni's heroic deeds
Shortly after the plane took off, Captain Connie Xiang Jie immediately noticed that something was wrong. According to the procedural requirements, after the plane leaves the ground, the first action of the crew is to retract the landing gear. However, after completing this procedure, Xiang Jie found that the red warning light of the landing gear did not go out. Xiang Jie judged that this may be that the nose landing gear was not properly placed. At this time, his first consideration is to return.
As we didn't know the state of the nose landing gear, the crew contacted the tower and asked for clearance. Please ask the ground personnel to check whether the landing gear is in place. 300 meters high, the ground personnel did not see clearly; Once again, 30 meters of ultra-low altitude clearance, this time I saw it clearly: the front landing gear was not put down! In the ground command room, several plans are being worked out quickly. Before the forced landing, the unit took three auxiliary measures: hovering in a wide range of 45 degrees, crossing the 1 and No.3 hydraulic release wheels, and landing the "vibrating wheel".
However, these measures have not worked, and it seems that there is only one last resort-the runway landing. Xiang Jie said: "After all the emergency procedures have been completed, that is, after all the tricks have been exhausted, this mood is fleeting. Because at the critical moment, I am the backbone of the engine room and can't mess around. Only by maintaining a high degree of calm and properly handling everything can we see the dawn of hope. " ?
At this time, Hongqiao airport has been full of fire engines and ambulances. The leaders of Shanghai and China Eastern Airlines at the scene anxiously looked up at the sky. In the duty room of CAAC, the hearts of several leaders of CAAC are hanging in their throats. One side of the apron was crowded with civil aviation employees and their families, who prayed silently in their hearts with tears. There are still 4 tons of oil in the plane. Ni Xiangjie calmly and meticulously arranged all the preparations needed during the forced landing, and took special care of the crew members to use the bathroom to prevent injuries after the forced landing. ?
Only 2 tons of oil! He shouted to the tower, "I must land at once!" " "The ground personnel issued instructions:" Agree to land! "When the plane was cut into five sides, the hour hand pointed to 1 1: 05, and the grim moment of life and death came. Ni Xiangjie made three forced landing plans in advance: First, the fuselage should not be sideways, facing the runway; Second, when landing, the main wheel should be as smooth as possible and tangent to the runway surface; Third, when lowering the nose, try to hold it down with a pole and let it lower slowly. ?
During the forced landing, all the postures of the plane were as expected by Ni, no, it should be better than expected. The huge nose that lost its "front hoof" gently touched the ground and then splashed sparks, and the plane glided smoothly for 700 meters. The flight attendants put down the emergency slide to evacuate the passengers. On the other hand, Tony Xiang Jie flew as usual, and he didn't forget to completely turn off the power of the plane until the car turned off, so as to ensure safety. He was the last one to jump off the plane and board the van beside the runway calmly.
