The cabin had just been a mess, with the cries and prayers of the passengers, and the howling of the wind pouring into the cabin - the cockpit door had been broken, and the wind from the hole in the windshield had blown straight into the cabin.

The first class cabin is a little better, the number of people is not very large, and the quality of the passengers is higher, they can still sit in their seats relatively quietly under the persuasion of the flight attendants, of course, they are also frightened, and many people keep crossing and praying on their chests.

Feng Jing was even more worried that after Xia Ruofei went to the front, she never came back, and she was very worried about Xia Ruofei's safety.

At this moment, the purser Guli came over, leaned into her ear and said that her friend was in the cockpit and asked her to come along, and she immediately stood up and followed Guli to the cockpit.

When she came to the cockpit, Feng Jing was even more startled, Captain Brooke in the co-pilot seat was dripping with blood on his arm, the windshield in front of him had disappeared, and there was only a big hole that the wind kept pouring into. The cockpit was even more in disarray, and the instrument panel on the passenger side was lifted.

What made Feng Jing's heart beat even more was that it was Xia Ruofei who was flying the plane now!

When did this guy learn to fly an airplane? Also, there were no pilots on the plane? Feng Jing suddenly felt as if the whole world had collapsed......

Xia Ruofei was concentrating on piloting the plane to descend to altitude, and he didn't have time to say too much to Feng Jing, so he just turned around and shouted, "Sit down in the seat behind me and fasten your seat belt!" Purser, you help her put on the oxygen mask!"

The seat behind him was the closest to him, and once the plane was out of control and about to crash, Xia Ruofei only needed one thought to be able to put Feng Jing into the Lingtu space.

Feng Jing had a confused expression on her face, sat down on the seat behind Xia Ruofei, fastened her seat belt with the help of the purser Gu Li, and put on an oxygen mask.

The plane descended rapidly in a swooping attitude, and although the thrust had been reduced, the airspeed was still increasing, and the whole plane was trembling, as if it could disintegrate at any moment.

The altitude shown by the altimeter is also decreasing rapidly, and the oxygen content in the cabin is naturally gradually increasing.

When the altimeter indicated that it was 10,000 feet, that is, about 3,000 meters, Captain Brooke finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he exclaimed, "Xia! Now try to maintain this altitude as much as possible!

"Okay!" Xia Ruofei said.

He was engrossed in controlling the joystick, slowly adjusting the attitude of the plane to level flight, and at the same time, as Brooke suggested, continued to retract the throttle a little, and the airspeed that had been increasing due to the dive just now began to slowly decrease.

After the speed was reduced, the airflow from the hole formed by the burst windshield was naturally less violent, and the noise in the cockpit was reduced.

At this point, Brooke was almost certain that the plane and passengers were safe for the time being.

That's when he began to try to make contact with the ground and determine the location of his plane.

Because many instruments on the co-pilot's side were damaged in the explosive loss of pressure, Brooke is now unable to determine the position of the aircraft through the global positioning system, but he knows that the plane must have noticed the abnormality from the beginning of the yaw to the emergency altitude behind, so he called directly in the civil aviation emergency frequency, there should be no problem.

Brooke called via emergency frequency: "May Day!" may day! may day! Flight QF108!Flight QF108!We have suffered a hijacking, and the aircraft is currently damaged, and the cabin is depressurized! Ask for help from the ground radar!"

Brooke first announced the state of emergency with three consecutive "may days", then clearly stated the flight number and briefly reported the situation.

He was also a little worried about the damage to the communication system, but fortunately, a response came from the headset quickly, although he could not hear very clearly in the loud noise, and the sound was intermittent, but the communication was not interrupted, which made Brooke feel a lot more relieved.

"QF108, report your altitude, speed!" the voice of the air traffic control came to Brooke's ears from time to time.

Brooke quickly glanced at the altimeter and airspeed meter in front of him that were still working normally, reported the current altitude speed to the air traffic controller, and then asked, "We applied for the nearest airport to make a forced landing, where are we now?"

Due to the very loud noise in the cockpit, and the air-to-ground communication function seemed to have been affected a little bit, a little intermittently, so Captain Brooke only vaguely heard a few words, but did not get any useful information.

He had no choice but to say, "I didn't hear it clearly, please repeat it!QF108!"

The controller repeated it again, but Brooke still couldn't hear it clearly, and couldn't help but be a little anxious.

Xia Ruofei was also wearing headphones, his hearing was much stronger than Brooke's, and he could basically hear what the controller said.

So Xia Ruofei turned his head and said loudly: "Captain Brooke, I heard the other party say in the headset that we are in the Auckland intelligence area, and now we have two options, one is to fly to the Japanese country, and the other is to fly to Saipan, the distance is about the same, the controller said let us judge and decide!"

Captain Brooke often flies this route, and he can roughly judge the position of the plane when he hears it, of course, because Wilkins deliberately let the plane deviate from the course before, Brooke's judgment may not be very accurate, just a general area.

Fortunately, there is also ground radar guidance, and the plane will not lose its course in the vast sea.

Captain Brooke thought quickly, and finally made a quick decision considering that Qantas had a base at Saipan Airport, which might be relatively convenient in terms of ground coordination, and that he was relatively more familiar with Saipan Airport.

"We decided to make a crash landing on Saipan!QF108. Captain Brooke said decisively, "Please provide us with radar guidance! Also, due to the loss of pressure in the cabin, we apply to maintain an altitude of 10,000 feet!"

Xia Ruofei heard an intermittent voice coming from the headphones: "QF108, agree to keep 10,000 feet, now I will guide you back to the route to Saipan, please turn left and head to 150!"

Xia Ruofei saw Brooke pressing the headphones hard with a confused look, and knew that he must still not hear what the other party was saying, so he acted as a microphone again and repeated the controller's words.

"Please confirm the order, allow to hold 10,000 feet, turn left and head 150!QF108!" Brooke repeated the controller's instructions.

"Correct!" said the controller.

"Understood, QF108!" Brooke replied quickly.

Then he began to instruct Xia Ruofei and taught him to use the steering stick and rudder to make the plane start to turn.

The turning of the aircraft seems simple, that is, kicking the rudder or turning the steering stick, both methods can make the aircraft produce a turning movement, but in fact, if only the ailerons are controlled by the steering stick to make the aircraft turn, the aircraft will tilt, but the direction of the nose is actually not turned, the whole turning process is very slow and the resistance is particularly large.

However, if only the rudder is used to control, the nose suddenly turns when the fuselage is not tilted, the direction of the air flow on the wing changes drastically, the lift decreases, and the fuselage force increases, which will lead to a rapid drop in the height of the aircraft.

The right thing to do is to work with the steering stick and rudder so that the nose of the aircraft tilts and the nose turns, so that the aircraft can draw a smooth and rounded curve in the air without changing altitude.

However, this may already be an instinctive action for an old pilot, but for a pure rookie like Xia Ruofei, it is very difficult.

So after Brooke told Xia Ruofei about the method of turning, he didn't have any hope for Xia Ruofei's operation, he didn't want to be smooth and perfect at all, as long as he could turn the corner.

Xia Ruofei was indeed a little hurried at the beginning, either the rudder pedal too much, and the cooperation of the steering stick was not good enough, or the steering stick rotated, but the rudder did not keep up, and the height of the plane also fluctuated in the process of turning.

However, after cultivating "The Great Dao Decision", Xia Ruofei's learning ability is also super strong, especially this kind of project that requires high physical coordination, he can master it very quickly.

After a while, Xia Ruofei had already figured out the doorway, and in the next turn, the fuselage of the aircraft leaned slightly to the left, and at the same time, the nose of the plane also turned to the left, and the plane crossed an arc in the air, and the altimeter would remain on the same number throughout the process.

Brooke couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, this learning talent is too strong! This simple turning action, maybe the flight students have to practice for several lessons, and they may not be able to achieve such perfection, but Xia Ruofei only lasted a minute or two, and he had already flown out of the freehand feeling of an old pilot.

If it weren't for Xia Ruofei's previous performance, he was indeed a pure novice, and he knew almost nothing about jet airliners, Brooke would even think that Xia Ruofei was joking before, this is simply a skilled pilot!

Brooke quickly recovered from the shock, because the course had reached 140, and he hurriedly said, "Xia!

In fact, there is no need for Brooke to remind, Xia Ruofei has slowly reduced the turning slope - the controller asked to turn to heading 150, he definitely can't wait until heading 150 to operate, the plane changes from turning attitude to direct flight, it also needs a response time, and it will definitely turn around when the time comes.

If the autopilot controls the aircraft, the whole process must be quite smooth and precise, and by the time of the 150 course, the plane just becomes a direct flight attitude, and the person who takes the plane does not feel too big and too rapid changes.

But if it is operated manually by the pilot, it is naturally not as accurate as the computer control, and there will be some left and right adjustments.

However, Xia Ruofei's turning operation was as if controlled by the autopilot, and when the heading just came to 150, the aircraft's attitude just flattened completely, and it began to fly straight towards this course.

Brooke was even more surprised, he would rather believe that it was a blind cat encountering a dead mouse - otherwise, it would be terrifying that a rookie who had only been exposed to a transport helicopter before would be able to do this for the first time in a jumbo jet.

Brooke thinks that even if he hadn't been injured and had operated the plane himself, he would have been able to do that to a certain extent.

The next flight was to fly under the guidance of the air traffic control, during which two air traffic control areas were also switched, and the air traffic control along the way put the aircraft that declared a state of emergency in the first sequence, and the airspace was cleared early, and the route was unimpeded.

Brooke has also been in contact with Qantas' base in Saipan.

When the flight deviated from the radar, Qantas received the news as soon as possible, and it can be said that the company's hearts were hanging, and now it is finally contacted, and although the plane was damaged, there were no casualties among passengers, which can be said to be a blessing in misfortune.

Qantas was quick to move and coordinated the airport, customs, quarantine and hospitals on the Saipan side.

Saipan Airport also redeployed other planes early to clear the airspace for flight QF108.

During the whole flight, Brooke finally had to admit that Xia Ruofei may really be a flying genius, he can be said to have learned the manual control of the aircraft from scratch, but the speed of getting started is simply jaw-dropping, and almost every turn and altitude adjustment of the aircraft can see Xia Ruofei's progress.

As the plane approached Saipan Airport, an area was set aside on the ground for the plane to refuel - the flight was to Australia, which was not yet halfway through, and there was still a lot of jet fuel in the tank, and if it landed directly, the weight would be too heavy, and the landing gear and structure of the aircraft could be damaged.

In particular, the actual control of the aircraft is still a rookie who has never received a minute of Airbus flight training, and a heavy landing is even more dangerous.

Fortunately, there is also an experienced captain on the plane, Brooke, although he is unable to control the plane due to an arm injury, but he can undertake air-ground communication tasks, and at the same time can give Xia Ruofei guidance at any time.

So the whole process of refueling was also very smooth, and Captain Brooke decided to release 10 tons of aviation fuel after calculations - this number is less than the theoretical figure, because considering that Xia Ruofei has no flying experience at all, Captain Bruck does not dare to expect a successful landing.

Since we want to make plans for the resumption of flights, it is natural to keep more aviation fuel.

Soon, the plane gradually descended in altitude under the command of the air traffic control, and the standard approach procedures were not implemented for this landing, because the ground already knew the current status of the aircraft, and at the same time, other flights had been transferred to hover in different airspace, so naturally everything was simple.

Under the constant reminder and guidance of Captain Brooke, Xia Ruofei controlled the plane and gradually approached Saipan Airport, and Brooke's heart was also raised, and the time to test whether Xia Ruofei was a real flying genius had finally arrived......
