"Hey! I want to make an emergency landing! Repeat! I want to make an emergency landing! The third hole is the highest level of danger! It's beautiful, the third hole is the highest level of danger!"
Li Hai was blind and confused. He could not receive the call from the tower, and his blind hair was also posted. However, he did not know that many systems on the plane had been completely paralyzed, and he had no thoughts to pay attention to it at this moment. Being able to barely keep the plane flying is a miracle among miracles that no one in the world will ever see in their lifetime!
"Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful..."
Li Hai used his hair blindly and tried his best to control the plane as it flew toward the Forgotten Reef, 50 nautical miles away.
He continued to gain altitude. In the pitch darkness, where he could not distinguish between starlight and sea navigation lights, and all the instruments were malfunctioning, he could only rely on his senses to sense the status of the aircraft - whether it was climbing or descending, and whether it was heading. 30 degrees or heading 45 degrees.
It’s all about feel!
The most taboo thing when flying at night is to rely on your feelings!
Xue Zhengrong repeatedly emphasizes that you must not trust your feelings!
However, at this moment, Li Hai had nothing to rely on except his own feelings and the flying experience he had accumulated over the past period of time!
J-8F No. 81103 made a 360-degree turn in the air and kept falling. Li Hai was sweating all over his body. He tried his best to regain control and finally corrected the attitude of the aircraft at an altitude of 700 meters.
The plane continued to fly unsteadily towards the Forgotten Reef Airport.
What does J-8F No. 81103 look like at this time?
Half of the vertical tail was missing, a small section of the left wing was broken, and the entire back was covered with wounds. Especially the left wing, it was still able to fly when there was no aerodynamic layout to speak of. Its R&D team probably never dreamed of such a scene. It is true.
The broken oil line on the left wing has been spraying oil out. I don't know what was mixed with it, pulling out thick smoke. Still 30 kilometers away from the Forgotten Reef Airport, the smoke strangely disappeared.
Li Hai looked back from time to time to observe the situation of the plane. Every time he looked at it, he was frightened. He himself couldn't understand that the plane could still fly after it was in such a bad condition. By some strange coincidence, or perhaps he suffered from an occupational disease, he picked up the camera and turned around to take a sharp photo of the damaged area of the aircraft, leaving behind an extremely precious memory in the history of human aviation.
Li Hai is still trying his best to climb higher. The more he climbs one meter, the more likely he is to make an emergency landing at the Forgotten Reef Airport!
He firmly believed that the correct direction was the sky. In this dark three-dimensional space, his sense of direction and orientation was surprisingly good.
but!
Li Hai soon discovered that the plane's climbing attitude was uncontrollable!
He tried to press the stick continuously, but the plane continued to climb!
"You want to kill me!" Li Hai couldn't laugh or cry.
When you want to climb, you can't pull it up for a long time. After finally climbing, you are still unwilling to lower your head (return to level flight).
At this time, it is basically certain that the state of the aircraft is sometimes good and sometimes bad, sometimes controlled and sometimes uncontrolled. Moreover, after the damage occurs, the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft is exactly at the dividing line between being able to fly and being unable to fly. It's like walking on a tightrope!
While Li Hai was trying his best to resume level flight, he was silently calculating the climb rate. Not long after, he was surprised to find that the plane had climbed to 4,000 meters!
The broken canopy is already groaning and may burst at any time due to the difference in air pressure between the inside and outside of the cabin! When the pressure reaches a certain level, the canopy is a weapon that can kill Li Hai!
"Brothers, level it, level it, level it! Level it!" Li Hai kept praying, gritting his teeth, pressing the lever hard, and kicking the pedals controlling the helm with both feet.
The only intact tail rudder surface (the rudder surface that controls elevation) finally showed some response. When climbing to 4,800 meters, before the canopy glass completely shattered, the aircraft finally resumed level flight.
A light fighter jet rushed over and appeared on Li Hai's left side. He turned around and saw that it was the 037 J-7EGGHS. The pilot in the front cabin was Xue Zhengrong, and the pilot in the rear cabin was Party Weimin.
The last two official pilots of the 167th Independent Flying Group all came up. Xue Zhengrong flew up personally regardless of his physical discomfort.
The tower found that Li Hai could not be contacted, but the radar could clearly see that Li Hai was flying back, and the flight trajectory was very strange. Xue Zhengrong made a decisive decision and immediately took off to provide guidance. The ground command was handed over to Zhao Feiyan and Zhan Yuntian.
Xue Zhengrong's decision was very timely.
Without guidance, Li Hai might have to spend a lot of time looking for the airport. At this time, time is life to him!
Even if you have to fall, falling on the island is ten thousand times better than falling in the sea!
After Xue Zhengrong and Dang Weimin saw clearly the situation of J-8F No. 81103, they almost had a heart attack from fright. Such a state was really incredible! No one would think that an airplane in such a state could fly, but the fact is right in front of them!
There was no time to sigh. Dang Weimin in the back cabin quickly played a lantern signal, signaling Li Hai to follow him.
Li Hai just raised his hand, not caring whether the party could understand it or not, he had no time to think too much. Fortunately, he was wearing white labor protection gloves, which were more conspicuous in low-light conditions. The most important thing was that after the cockpit was powered off, Li Hai turned on the flashlight and put it aside. After a violent maneuver, the flashlight rolled to his feet. The light was directed towards Li Hai's face, making it appear that Li Hai's face in the cockpit was a bit gloomy and ferocious.
J-7EGGHS No. 037 looked at J-8F No. 81103 curiously, seeming to be saying, "You are a ruthless person too, even with this style, you still don't fall." It also seemed to be saying, "Brother, I was also the worst when I was in the past. It's just that my butt is half-stretched and burning. You're better off. The vertical tail and left wing are gone. The problem is that I'm only burning but still there. Your bastard is completely gone. How can you still fly? Shen Hoy's quality Is it so good?"
Judging from this point alone, Shen Haoyi has been beaten by Loma for more than nine streets.
Xue Zhengrong very carefully flew to the front and left side of Li Hai. He moved very cautiously and looked back to observe Li Hai's situation from time to time. Dang Weimin in the back cabin even took photos (?) while carefully observing the exterior of J-8F No. 81103. situation, and then use lantern language to inform Li Hai.
That's all that can be done right now.
It was very difficult for Li Hai to control the flight direction. No. 037 J-7EGGHS flew in a straight line that slowly descended directly into the field, but Li Hai couldn't do it. The state he showed was - No. 81103 J-8F left for a while. After a while, it’s like a person who doesn’t know how to drive, trying hard to keep going straight but always overdoing it when turning!
The crisis is slowly approaching, and the closer to the Forgotten Reef, the higher the risk factor.
In the dark night sky, a fire suddenly ignited. It was the engine compartment of J-8F No. 81103, and the fire instantly enveloped the rear half of the fuselage.
Li Hai knew that the life of his mount was over...
