Monster Factory

Two pilots sweat like rain, like falling into an ice cave.

They are pilots trained through long professional flight courses, and they have more than 5,000 hours of flight time.

They are not machines, and long, boring rows will surely quench their motivation to work, but their judgment and expertise will only steadily increase with working hours.

Rudder failure.

Aircraft automatic flight mode failure.

These two failures can never happen at the same time, and the bias occurs.

“Tower, this is an emergency. We have a plane malfunction. Me and another pilot would never make a mistake. We're in a straight line. ”

The pilot's teeth trembled a little, "I can't fly more than ten times at Sanghai Airport, I can guarantee that there is no city in front of us on our route. ”

“This…”

The terrestrial tower hesitated: "Although on the screen in front of me, the radar and positioning data are exactly the same as the scheduled flight route. ”

“But I'm sure you won't joke about the flight safety of an airplane. ”

The pilot shouted, "Never, I swear, our plane is really out of control. ”

The electronic messenger said seriously: "Try to identify the real location of the plane first, and I will report this to the leader immediately. ”

And when this was over, the electronic messenger turned his head and smiled at the crystal next to him, "Boss, these stupid humans finally found themselves flying the wrong route. ”

“Indeed, it took me so long to realize that even I was a little unexpected.” The crystal laughed, and he thought the two pilots should have spotted the problem a long time ago, at least not long after they changed course to Russia.

Electronic instrumentation in the aircraft cockpit can fool their eyes, but the necessary spare mechanical dials above their heads will not.

If you look up and carefully calculate the data on the mechanical dial, you can see that it is wrong.

Too bad ~

It's like people who are used to automatic stops can be very unhappy and unwilling when faced with manual stops.

There are too many problems with humans, laziness is the most obvious one.

The electronic messenger didn't even pretend to look for the leader, and he cut off the call directly.

Two pilots in the cockpit of the aircraft did not dare to delay anything.

They forced themselves to calm down.

Now they finally think of the mechanical gauge on top of their head, and the computational data suggests that they've been flying straight for almost two hours.

At this moment, the two pilots suddenly realized that the electronic dashboard in front of them seemed to be under control.

Calm down!

Panic is only a waste of the best time, and pilots are asking their peers to contact US Air Command immediately to report the situation and inquire about their true GPS location, while he stands up from his seat.

He grabbed the flight log book, quickly turned to a blank page, and painted a quarter circle on it.

They have become accustomed to relying on electronic meters, but that does not mean that they will rely only on electronic meters.

How did humans navigate before a wide variety of electronic navigation devices appeared?

Aircraft were invented more than a hundred years ago, and night raids during World War II were the most classic tactical tactics of the war. Pilots at that time didn't say GPS, they even had to keep the radio quiet the entire time they were on the job.

The pilot stuck his eyes firmly above the starboard window, and he was going to complete a star chart astronomical navigation through an auxiliary stargazing mirror with a six-dimeter parameter.

Using stars or other celestial bodies with celestial bodies as reference points can determine the true course of the aircraft in the sky.

Find the Moon location first.

Use the moon to locate several other important stars, using the location information of the object projection point as the center of the circle, to determine the shortest distance from the projection point to the observation point on the coordinates of the auxiliary stargazer.

Measure the celestial altitude angle with the scale inside, then use the altitude difference method to solve the intersection of two or three circles...

Pilots were making some calculations and eventually found themselves appalled by the fact that they were over Russian territory.

Unconsciously, it reaches thousands of kilometres deep into Russian territory.

“I can't reach you!” The Deputy Flight post was covered in cold sweat and he had just used all the external communication equipment on board, but the headphones were busy with electricity.

“Where's Warsaw Tower? ”

“I can't get through, either, just when they say they want to report it to their leaders. ”

“Calm down.” The pilot is comforted: “Perhaps the enemy has the ability to eavesdrop on our call, and as soon as they learn that the Hua Cha Tower is going to report the incident, they interfere with our communications equipment. ”

“Enemy?” The co-pilot was very surprised. "Isn't that a fault? ”

“Fault?” The driver's teeth were trembling and he gave a sneer, "self-driving failure may still glue past with a fault, but the six monitors in front of us are all displayed on the Huaxia route, how do you explain that? ”

“Even that Chinese ground tower, I suspect, is the enemy impersonating. ”

“Our plane is clearly in Russian airspace, but they say it's on the radar screen, and our location is near Sanghai. ”

“You mean...” The co-pilot shuddered violently, thinking of some possibility, and he shook his fingers down.

Below, is Russia.

“Exactly. Who else but Russia? ”

“How else can it be explained that we have been flying on Russian territory for hours without receiving any warning from the Russian air force? ”

“Did their radar fail collectively? ”

The two pilots had no idea what the enemy had used to control the entire aircraft without their knowledge, and even the electronic meter had been hijacked by them.

But this does not prevent them from confirming that the enemy necessarily comes from Russia only through the Russian air defence radar without any reaction.

A passenger plane had entered Russia by mistake and could never be invisible to the Russian Air Force and the civil aviation sector.

This is not an ordinary commercial flight, with a high-ranking Director of the Social Administration and several representatives of the Ministry of Commerce in the cabin. If there's any conspiracy in here, it's bound to come for Mr. Director.

The two pilots decided to seize control of the aircraft first, so that they could follow astronomical directions and fly the aircraft to Huaxia.

It doesn't matter if the autopilot fails and the full telex operating system fails.

The two pilots wanted to kiss the designers at this moment, thanking them for retaining the heavy and inefficient mechanical manipulation that had existed for hundreds of years.

While it's just the most basic way up and down, turn left and right, it's a luxury to land on the runway at night with these features.

But as long as we get to Warsaw, Russia's electronic hijacking of this plane will surely fail.

Starting a mechanical operation can be complicated by performing multiple sets of fully manual operations, even removing a baffle under your feet and attaching the hydraulic pipe of the linkage mechanical tie rod to the rudder.

Under threat of life, the two pilots completed the entire operation in less than a minute.

“Hold on.” The pilot was yelling.

Seven degrees to the left of the rudder, which is the offset angle at which the Boeing 747 can maximize at high speeds. Over seven degrees, the plane could roll over or break its wings.

In purely mechanical driving mode, all electronic aids fail.

If a new pilot is replaced, it is likely that the auxiliary device will be locked to a safety angle, causing the aircraft to die due to nervousness or subconscious belief that the auxiliary device is still working, regardless of the rudder offset.

Seven degrees, the Boeing 747 will tremble sharply and the center of gravity will shift rapidly.

Next second…

Nothing happened the next second!

The pilot was completely stunned and his left foot on the rudder was overwhelmed.

They have clearly switched to mechanical driving mode, why...

Because this is the twenty-first century, even with a purely mechanical control system, there cannot be any electronic control chip or mechanical auxiliary components on the system.

It is impossible to say that the pilot stepped on the rudder, the rudder drives the tie rod, and the tail wings dozens of meters away from the cockpit are also deflected.

At 800 km/h the tail wing, even if it is deflected once, the wind resistance pressure it is under is not manpower that can be shaken.

So it requires the rudder to be connected to the hydraulic pipe, which is then connected to a separate mechanical hydraulic pump, which provides sufficient hydraulic power to drive tail deflection.

Even automotive hydraulic systems require electronic chip control, not to mention more than ten times more complex aircraft?

The only difference is that the hydraulic system on the aircraft has a backup electronic chip that burns down one and another.

The problem now is that the two chips, as well as the hydraulic pump, are all disconnected by the electric crystal.

The two pilots also realized something was wrong and wanted to notify the pilot to check it out.

They shouted half-day at the headphones before realizing that not only had external contacts been disrupted, but even the aircraft's internal liaison system was completely on strike.

The deputy pilot stood up and pulled the hatch door without saying anything, and then...

Uh…

The hatch door was locked and the red sign [stopsuddenly] appeared on the door guard.

Since the World Trade Building crash in 2001, all passenger aircraft have replaced the isolation hatch in which the cockpit communicates with the outside world, which has been replaced with bulletproof material and has added locking functionality. The pilot has the right not to notify the crew to lock the isolation door from the inside in case of an emergency.

Once [stopsuddenly] information appears on the hatch, external personnel will no longer be able to open the door, not even the pilot.

This is to prevent the flight crew or passengers from threatening the pilot to open the door from within, after all, full of uncertainty.

Only after the aircraft has landed, the ground technician can open it from the maintenance window below with specialized equipment.

“Could it be that...”

“Among the passengers, Russian agents?” Pilots are coming up with a terrible possibility.

Someone should fit inside and move the hands and feet of some equipment on the plane.

With this conjecture, he first thought of journalists carrying a lot of interview equipment.

If someone has a special electronic device stuck inside, the security check doesn't necessarily check it out.

With this conjecture, the two pilots dared not suddenly draw the attention of the crew outside by smashing the door.

The enemy can control even six information monitors, making it easier to control surveillance in theory.

Looks like a peaceful cabin surveillance image, who knows what's going on?

The two pilots hurried out of the aircraft equipment maintenance manual to find a solution to reclaim control in the cockpit.

But!

This is where we just turned the manual on, the Boeing 747, which was supposed to keep the flight smooth, suddenly sank on the head.

Implicit, the two pilots could also hear the broadcast coming from outside the hatch.

“Distinguished Commissioner, and representatives of the media, our destination for this flight is approaching Sanghai International Airport. Please fasten your seatbelts..."

The deputy pilot was pale, with his upper and lower teeth shut, trembling like a woodpecker, “This... who is this... talking? ”
