Chapter 675 - 433: Biological Force Field Lifts the Airliner (Part 2)
The steward’s eyes were full of astonishment.
Although they couldn’t fly the plane, working on it for years had given them a clear understanding of some principles of aviation.
A plane descending at such a speed as just now was almost impossible to save, which is why they felt such despair.
Because it clearly was a situation of certain death.
Not even an Immortal could save them.
But now...
They actually stopped in mid-air?
What did the captain do to save the entire plane in such a situation?
But at this moment, the captain and co-pilot sitting in the cockpit were even more bewildered than the steward.
They had done nothing.
How did the plane suddenly stop falling?
Could it be that the tower sent assistance?
But what kind of assistance could instantly stop a rapidly descending commercial airliner in mid-air?
Ultraman?
A moment later, the staff at the tower also saw the descent rate of the flight on the radar suddenly slow down.
After hovering briefly in the air for several seconds, it flew towards the ground at near the speed of sound.
Although it deviated from its original flight path, and the speed was somewhat unusual.
But this discovery still made many people cheer uncontrollably.
"It actually managed to be saved!"
"Was it the captain who saved it? That’s amazing!"
"As expected of our captain, what kind of exceptional skill and strong mental resilience does it take to save the whole plane in such a situation?!"
The last time something like this happened was seven years ago,
That event was on May 14, 2018, when Sichuan Airlines Flight 3U8633 was flying from Chongqing to Lhasa,
At that time, the right windshield of the cockpit suddenly cracked and shattered quicky at an altitude of 9800 meters, causing cabin decompression and autopilot system failure, with the aircraft trembling violently.
The flight captain, Liu Chuanjian, manually operated the plane under extremely adverse conditions of minus 40 degrees Celsius, lack of oxygen, strong winds, and loud noise. Gripping the control stick with his left hand and pulling the oxygen mask with his right, he managed to guide the plane into a difficult descent, manually. After 34 minutes of extreme operation, Liu Chuanjian nearly perfectly landed the plane safely at Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport, creating a miracle in aviation history.
This incident was later adapted into the movie "The Captain," highlighting how astonishingly difficult this extreme maneuver was; after the incident, investigators, through multiple simulations, were shocked to find: "During the entire incident of flight 8633, there were 36 potential errors, each fatal, and simulation results always ended with the destruction of the aircraft." Which means, Liu Chuanjian turned a 100% mortality rate into a 100% safe landing.
And now, this plane has miraculously recreated the miracle of that year!
Just as everyone was jubilantly praising the captain,
Suddenly, a man sitting in front of the control panel exclaimed, "No, it seems the captain didn’t save the plane!"
"Why do you say that?" A middle-aged man frowned and walked over asking.
The man, seeing the leader approaching, hurriedly pointed to the data on the control panel and said, "Look at the specific real-time data here, the plane’s engine hadn’t even started, how could it be flying normally?"
"Could there be a glitch in the data display?" The middle-aged man’s expression eased a little but continued to ask.
The man at the control panel continued explaining, "No, I checked carefully, prior to the plane’s resuming normal flight, the captain had been attempting to restart the engine, and the data had been shown in real-time, so there’s no way the data display had a glitch!"
At these words,
everyone present was suddenly startled.
Since the plane hadn’t started normally,
Then what exactly is flying in the air now?
Is it a ghost?
Or perhaps some mysterious force saved this flight?
The middle-aged man squinted his eyes, "Find out the cause immediately, and try to contact the captain!"
With that, everyone present became busy once more.
A few minutes later, they managed to contact the pilots on the plane.
At this point, the captain and co-pilot had regained clear consciousness and hearing, and could communicate normally with the tower staff.
The staff asked simply and directly, "What’s the current situation of the plane?"
The captain’s voice on the other side was very hesitant, "The plane flew up again in a way I don’t understand, I don’t know if the engine restarted or something held us up."
Suddenly, the staff at the tower were even more shocked, as even the captain didn’t know how the plane managed to take off again.
So what on earth saved the plane?
After pondering for a moment, the staff could only respond, "Try to maintain stability, and inform us as soon as you discover the cause."
"Got it."
With that,
the communication was cut off.
Just as everyone was puzzled.
One of the staff at the tower opened the external surveillance images of the plane.
Only to find a barely noticeable small black dot beneath the plane.
The staff rubbed their eyes and kept zooming in on the image,
but the resolution of the surveillance was very limited, no matter how much they zoomed, they could only see a clump of pixels.
With no other choice, they kept changing angles, trying to find a clearer view.
Eventually, they were astonished to realize.
This black dot turned out to be a human-shaped figure!
Although they couldn’t see his face or appearance clearly.
But judging from the attire, he should just be an ordinary human being.
They quickly called others over, and when the others saw the image, their expressions turned to utter shock.
This was simply unimaginable...
How could a human fly, let alone carry a plane while flying?
Not to mention how difficult it is to carry a passenger plane weighing hundreds of tons,
It was utterly impossible for a human being to support an entire plane with just their hands.
Unless Superman had come to the real world!
The staff responsible for communication hesitated for a moment, then reconnected with the captain, "Based on our investigation, there seems to be an unidentified human beneath your plane holding it up."
The captain on the other side of the communication was shocked, "What? A human holding up the plane?"
"Sorry, we are continuing to investigate the details, but we can confirm so far that a human is holding you up." The staff apologized.
After the communication ended, the captain’s pupils were dilated, unable to recover for a long time, and the co-pilot sitting beside him was also dumbfounded. No wonder they didn’t operate anything, yet the plane took off again, it turned out something was holding them up. But they couldn’t imagine, that what was holding them up was a human? Had the tower mentioned another plane holding them up, they wouldn’t be this shocked.
At this moment, the middle-aged man at the tower, upon seeing the vague figure of the man holding the plane in the image, suddenly had a suspicion in his heart,
He then walked out, into a deserted corner, and dialed a phone number.
Once the call connected, he said:
"Old Yi, check if Wang Ye is in your military district right now."
"What’s going on?" Old Yi on the other end was somewhat confused.
The middle-aged man said, "I’ll keep it short, we had a flight here that almost crashed half an hour ago, but just now a figure was holding that flight up, so I suspect it might be Wang Ye."
Old Yi’s eyelids twitched on the other end, "You suspect Wang Ye is holding up this flight, so you’re asking me to check if Wang Ye is here with me?"
"That’s right, do me a favor, this matter is of great importance."
"No need to check, I’ll head over now, make sure you keep monitoring that flight, don’t let it get away."
With that, the call ended.
Old Yi was wasting no time, immediately arranging his schedule to rush towards the tower.
This was Wang Ye’s first time holding up a plane, he couldn’t miss it.
Though the tower couldn’t confirm the identity of that figure, from the description, Old Yi could basically ascertain that it was Wang Ye.
Because in this world, besides Wang Ye, there was simply no one else with such ability.
