Great Power Fighting Falcon

Several searchlights shone on the Y-8's fuselage, allowing the tower to see her figure clearly.

At this time, Yun-8 was like a paper plane that was thrown into the sky on a windy day. It was swaying in the wind and rain with no way to rely on it. It was like a confused young man who wanted to land but found that he didn't know where to go. There's no going back.

Li Zhan was surprised to find that no matter how the Y-8 shook, it always fell steadily and slowly. Her nose was not facing the runway, but facing the tower, but the entire fuselage was completely on the landing route. .

This captain is very skilled!

Li Zhan saw the captain's thoughts very keenly. The large tilt of the fuselage was intentional by the captain in order to avoid invisible turbulence. Without thousands of flight hours, without a thorough understanding of the Y-8’s flight envelope and the aircraft’s performance, such precise operation would never be possible! Li Zhan even believed that such precise operation was comparable to the skills of the Bayi Aerobatic Team!

You know, this is a medium-sized transport aircraft!

He was bold and careful, and was not affected by the pressure caused by hundreds of officers and soldiers on board the aircraft during the operation. This kind of psychological quality is something Li Zhan is ashamed of.

Something astonishing happened to Li Zhan. Looking at Yun-8, who was about to roll over, swaying like a drunkard, people couldn't help but want to go over and help him hold the runway, but no matter how hard he shook, he couldn't turn over. Fix him like a magnet.

Yun-8 landed diagonally, with a very stable posture, and then slid diagonally.

Li Zhan was surprised to find that the captain cleverly used the lateral friction of the tires to offset part of the influence of the crosswind, allowing the plane to glide forward smoothly, albeit diagonally.

The Y-8 taxied directly from the runway to the parking bay. Li Zhan immediately ordered the equally stunned fire rescue personnel on standby to return to their respective posts and cancel the emergency plan.

Not long after, the rear hatch of the Yun-8 opened, and capable Marines ran down in two lines, and then unloaded the disaster relief materials that were randomly carried, although many soldiers vomited and worked during the process.

Li Zhan was stunned and praised sincerely, "This captain is so awesome."

"The Y-8 pilot with the longest flying time, the transport pilot commander Wang Shigui, you were probably still playing in the mud when he flew the J-7." Yu Chenglin said with a smile, relieved.

"It's true that there are people outside the world." Li Zhan said sincerely.

Yu Chenglin raised his chin, as if he was the one who had just landed the plane, and said, "You have moments when you are convinced."

I thought Li Zhan would sincerely nod modestly, but Li Zhan said, "If you drive like this, the engine life and other things will be consumed very quickly, right? At least the landing gear tires are seriously worn. By the way, deputy commander, open the eight tie rods How much does it cost?”

Yu Chenglin's chest hurts, and he panics when he scolds inappropriate words. He can only feel so angry that his chest hurts.

"Deputy commander, what's wrong? What's wrong?" Li Zhan asked with concern.

Yu Chenglin took a deep breath and held back his anger, "I'm fine."

Li Zhan was about to ask for the lever fee of Yun-8 when a lieutenant colonel strode in. Turning around, he saw that it was the air force lieutenant colonel who had contacted him before. Li Zhan came to his senses at this time. Although the deputy commander was here, before the end of the mission, he was under the command of the air force lieutenant colonel.

"Comrade Li Zhan." Air Force Lieutenant Colonel nodded towards Yu Chenglin, walked directly to Li Zhan, and asked with a very serious expression, "The photos you took provide timely and accurate basis for the decision-making of the flood control headquarters. The meteorological department informed , heavy rain continues in the upper reaches, and the possibility of debris flow disasters is increasing. The headquarters hopes that you will go out for aerial photography again. I heard that your aircraft is equipped with advanced night aerial photography equipment."

Li Zhan stood at attention and said, "Resolutely obey the order!"

The air force lieutenant colonel nodded, patted Li Zhan's arm, walked to Yu Chenglin, and said in a deep voice, "Deputy Commander Yu, the situation is urgent and the headquarters urgently needs first-hand information. I will tell you the specific area, but I am a layman on the specific actions, and I still need you to plan them.”

Yu Chenglin said, "The responsibility lies."

The air force lieutenant colonel immediately circled the areas that needed reconnaissance on the map. They were all mountainous areas in the upper reaches, concentrated on the edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, where the terrain was very different. In mountainous areas, heavy rainstorms or earthquakes will be accompanied by debris flow disasters.

In the past, the hazards of debris flow disasters were not reflected because many people in mountainous areas lived in scattered areas many years ago. Now, with the development of economy and the expansion of cities and towns, more and more urban areas and towns are spreading in the mountainous areas. The continuous mountains are not only beautiful natural scenery, but also hanging in the sight of more and more people. A Sword of Damocles above his head.

"This is Dam No. 3, which is also the largest and most important dam in the Three Rivers Basin. Before I came here, the water level was measured at 139 meters, which is not far from the highest warning position." The lieutenant colonel looked solemnly and pointed to the Three Rivers on the map. Regarding the position in the middle and lower reaches of the basin, he said, "Seven flood peaks have appeared in the middle and upper reaches. With the size of the No. 3 Dam, it is no problem to block seven flood peaks, but..."

At this time, Zhang Yuan came over. The lieutenant colonel looked at him. It was obvious that they had already communicated with each other. Zhang Yuan took over and said in a deep voice, "The ultra-low pressure formed by Super Typhoon Ma Li is like a huge magnet, attracting people from all over the world." The cold air mass moving south from Siberia is turning and accelerating eastward. In the process, it will bring continuous heavy rains to the region, which is heavier than what we have seen before. We are worried that in a short period of time, the water level of No. 3 Dam will The critical value will be exceeded, and if that happens, Dam 3 will have to open and release water.”

Li Zhan understood. "Flood discharge? Not only do I need to conduct aerial photography of the middle and upper reaches of the river basin to look for possible debris flow disasters or barrier lakes, but I also need to find suitable flood discharge areas?"

"Captain Li, look here." The lieutenant colonel did not answer directly, but pointed to the satellite map and said, "This is the edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. There is a drop of thousands of meters. Most of the flood peaks are formed here, and then they rise very quickly. Strengthening to the east happens to be a primeval forest area. We don’t know what the situation is here, so there is no way to come up with a feasible plan.”

Li Zhan nodded slowly, "I understand. First, to conduct aerial photography of towns and cities in the middle and upper reaches of the river basin, and to include as many inhabited areas as possible. The main purpose is to provide early warning time for debris flow disasters. Second, to Conduct reconnaissance on the edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to understand the topography of the flood peak formation area and the actual flood situation."

"Yes, you summed it up right." Zhang Yuan said.

Li Zhan glanced at them and said expressionlessly, "Commanders, with all due respect, it is difficult to detect the precursors of mudslide disasters by taking aerial photography at night. It is better to detect whether there are still people stranded in the villages in the mountainous areas. I think People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait who may be affected are already being evacuated, right?"

"Yes, the evacuation work has already started." The lieutenant colonel nodded and said, "It is true that there are stranded people."

"It is impossible to stay at home without turning on the lights at night. Even if there is no electricity, I will light a lamp or something. This is much more reliable for me to detect than looking for the precursors of a mudslide." Li Zhan said, "The second point is not problem, nighttime high-speed cameras can take large-area and precise shots of topography and watershed conditions.”

Yu Chenglin also noticed that this lieutenant colonel, who was also wearing an Air Force camouflage uniform, had basically no flying experience, had meteorological skills, and had a strong local flavor. He was probably from a meteorological department unit that often dealt with the local area.

The lieutenant colonel asked Yu Chenglin, "Deputy commander Yu, what's your opinion?"

"I completely agree with Comrade Li Zhan's suggestion." Yu Chenglin said.

The lieutenant colonel said, "Okay, please start working immediately. I will wait here and report the latest situation to the command headquarters at any time."

Li Zhan flew away from the tower.

It’s time to be a handsome man on a rainy night, but the most beautiful man tonight is Captain Wang Shigui.
