In front of the boarding gate of the Yangcheng Airport waiting hall, Xu Cang hung up the phone and his eyes stayed on the TV screen hanging in the hall for a moment. Then he put his phone back in his pocket, rubbed his chin, and walked back, feeling the rough texture on his fingers, thinking about whether he forgot to shave when he went out in the morning.

When Xu Cang showed his boarding pass at the boarding gate, he passed by successfully. When he was on the bridge, the road ahead was blocked by passengers. Xu Cang glanced forward and felt that there was no possibility of crossing. He simply landed at the end of the team and followed the passengers slowly, thinking about the news about Airbus 380 that he had just seen.

There have been too many things recently, and he actually forgot about the project that Airbus 380 was launched this year.

If the 737MAX is Boeing's Achilles heel, then the A380 is the eternal pain of Airbus, a typical case of a battle of intentions in the field of wide-body aircraft that almost ruined the entire company.

Just now, Xu Cang learned that Ma Cheng had obeyed his "request" quite consciously. In order to thank him for his help, Xu Cangsheng had the idea of ​​Lamu Hua Airlines. After all, he seemed to have taken a lot of advantage in excluding Ma Cheng's help to recruit people and intercepting the quota of the airlines originally belonging to the Jianchuan base in the middle of the journey. It is necessary to give some feedback.

In many ways, the terrifying Air Mac model of Airbus 380 is a commercial failure as big as its size. But according to Xu Cang's recollection, at least in the early stages, Airbus 380 was still favored by airlines. But when the tide exits, whether it is swimming naked is clear at a glance.

This peak work of Airbus, which claims to crush Boeing 747 in the field of wide-body aircraft, this Kunpeng giant flying, which once ruthlessly mocked other models as "small aircraft", ended in a bleak ending after only more than ten years of life. It is a pity.

The Boeing 747, which it was determined to defeat at the beginning of its project, has been experiencing more than 30 years of ups and downs, and its contrast further highlights the unimaginable failure of Airbus in the A380 project. In the later stage, if it weren't for the emergence of the Airbus 350, Boeing's later fantasy aircraft 787 could have swept through all monsters and monsters.

If Xu Cang had no reminder, Muhua Airlines would at least fall into a serious blow on the Airbus 380. Of course, Xu Cang felt from the bottom of his heart that Muhua Airlines would not follow the unfounded suggestions of an unknown person. It is basically certain that Muhua Airlines should still purchase the Airbus 380 according to historical development.

However, if you can remind Mu Hua Airlines, Xu Cang realized that he had done his best and would not make any other efforts. If Mu Hua Airlines insisted on buying Airbus 380, it would have nothing to do with Xu Cang.

Originally, Xu Cang just wanted to simply remind Ma Cheng, and then it ended. At most, he sighed about the sigh of life of the Airbus 380 aircraft, but after calming down for a moment, a little inspiration suddenly appeared in Xu Cang's mind.

The rise of the new king is often not due to his own efforts, but the decline of the old king himself, and the power change is completed as one rises and the other falls.

At least in the field of civil aviation aircraft, Airbus and Boeing were like two broken up, oppressing the latecomers to the death. Airbus also gathered the power of the entire Europe, and opened a hole under Boeing's iron curtain, and finally developed into a situation where two heroes compete for hegemony.

However, where can the third force be able to turn the pattern from a two-legged battle to a three-legged tripod? Xu Cang hopes that his country will participate. However, this difficulty is too great, so great that even Xu Cang himself is a little pessimistic.

So, if possible, Xu Cang felt that trying to weaken Boeing and Airbus was a more practical means. At least in the foreseeable future, Xu Cang knew that the 737MAX would be a sharp sword that pierced Boeing's heart. Where is the means to restrict Airbus?

Now a slight turmoil in Xu Cang's heart was stirred up. He seemed to have some thoughts. A grand plan for Airbus 380 might really overturn Airbus in one fell swoop.

As he thought about it, Xu Cang felt a little lost, until a voice came from the front: "Brother, everyone is here!"

"Huh?" Xu Cang was stunned. He raised his head and found that he was empty. The flight attendant was standing at the door of the cabin, waving to him.

Xu Cang came to his senses, ran over, entered the cabin, glanced at the cabin, and saw that it was basically full after judging by the fact that it was almost all over. He asked casually: "The manifest has arrived?"

The flight attendant waved the small note on his hand: "It's time, it's almost full again. The cockpit has been closed, I'm waiting for you brother."

"Sorry, I didn't notice it just now, just close the hatch."

As he said that, Xu Cang entered the cockpit and passed Tan Heling who was playing with his mobile phone. As soon as he sat in the seat, he found that the speed window on the MCP board had been adjusted, and the automatic accelerator was connected.

"Have you calculated the speed?" Xu Cang slightly adjusted the position of the lower rudder and used his other hand to bring out the CDU takeoff page. Sure enough, V1, V2, Vr have been inputted, and the center of gravity has also been inputted, and the calculated balance amount matches the balance amount.

It seems that Mo Shangyun has finished the rest of his work after he leaves.

"The manifest arrived not long after you left." Mo Shangyun took out the manifest and handed it to Xu Cang: "Can you verify it?"

When Xu Cang went out to the bathroom, the manifest had not arrived yet, so some weight data, center of gravity and take-off speed could not be checked, so he was left. It was not because Xu Cang was passive and lazy.

"No need!" Xu Cang took the manifest and handed it to Tan Heling behind: "Just Brother Tan helps verify it."

Tan Heling, who was hanging behind to play with his mobile phone, did not expect Xu Cang to call him. Cross-verification of cockpit data is a normal operation, but if he calls a captain, Xu Cang, the co-pilot, seems too smooth, right?

After all, I am also the captain. Although I have been dismissed, I have at least a route photo. I will take a little more face, such as adding a word for asking.

Despite his complaints, Tan Heling obediently put down his cell phone, took the manifest handed over by Xu Cang, and went to verify the data with his head down.

Seeing that Xu Cang was completely indifferent to his co-pilot, the old captain who had not been able to be more than ten years old might not be able to raise it. Although Xu Cang was still polite in his speech, the natural tone and the small movements of handing over the manifest were really impressive.

Mo Shangyun is really strange. Although Xu Cang is amazing in his talent, some things take time to settle down. How could Xu Cang be so skillful in summoning the captain like this?

Mo Shangyun could see that Xu Cang did not deliberately humiliate Tan Heling, but was really the kind of smoothness that his superiors ordered their subordinates.

"Just now, I saw that I was staring blankly on the bridge. What happened?"

"Hmm?" Xu Cang adjusted the rudder and seat seats, and replied casually: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about things."

Mo Shangyun did not ask much, but Xu Cang checked the plane a little and confirmed that the preparations had been completed. Tan Heling, who later verified the manifest data, Xu Cang drew out the inspection sheet: "Instructor, will I make a pre-flight inspection sheet and takeoff order?"

Mo Shangyun nodded: "It's done."

While Xu Cang was doing the inspection form, Mo Shangyun contacted the release frequency: "Hello release, Lantian 9912, stoppage 331, ready."

In fact, this approach is not very compliant, because when another pilot is doing inspection sheets and orders, mutual verification and communication is required.

However, this era is not strict, and some even have time shortages and do not do Jian Ling. Mo Shangyun and Xu Cang are both pilots with extremely experienced experience, which leads to Mo Shangyun being a little lazy.

When Mo Shangyun contacted the control, Xu Cang did not take the initiative to stop, and the cooperation between the two was still a little casual.

"Blue Sky 9912, contact the apron 121.35, goodbye."

“121.35, goodbye.”

Mo Shangyun was just adjusting the frequency and was still doing the simplicity of Xu Cang glanced at him and suddenly said, "Teacher, slow down! I'm a little too late, the trailer is right below."

Mo Shangyun looked below the nose. Sure enough, the trailer was already waiting below, just waiting for them to flash the lights. If the speed was faster, Xu Cang would be more tight in space for Jian Ling.

"Yes." Seeing this, Mo Shangyun adjusted the frequency slightly and did not switch immediately, but waited for a while.

Of course, this time should not be too long, otherwise the person who lets the pass asks what happened.

In that era, Jian Ling was not that complicated. Unlike later generations who wished to write a long article of thousands of words, Jian Ling only talked about some key projects after taking off for two thousand years.

Originally, Xu Cang really planned to deal with it casually, but when talking about the risk of taking off, Xu Cang suddenly thought of the 1566 aircraft that made him very unhappy, so he added: "Instructor, this aircraft may have problems with the starting speed of the head-raising. Please take a look for it later and get started."

"If I got it, you wouldn't be stinking me, right?" Mo Shangyun smiled and said, "But, I felt fine, nothing special about taking off the previous few times."

Mo Shangyun's first half is obviously a joke about Xu Cang's past that he almost robbed Captain Tan Heling of the authority of Captain Tan Heling in the incident of preparing to descend to Tianshan. As an eyewitness, Tan Heling's face turned dark, but he dared not say anything.

In that incident, the bureau did not know some details, but Mo Shangyun was a veteran of the company and knew a lot of inside information, such as the real reason why Tan Heling was dismissed from the captain after the bureau investigation, and Xu Cang showed extraordinary aggression and strength in the incident of the preparatory landing.

Xu Cang put Jian Lingka back and chuckled, "I have a good temper."

This is not that Xu Cang puts gold on his face, but that he really feels that he is quite kind, and only feels a little irritable in certain times and occasions.

Tan Heling laughed dryly behind, while Mo Shangyun laughed very happily, and the cockpit was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"Okay, let's not talk about it." Mo Shangyun cut the frequency to the apron frequency: "The apron, blue sky 9912, stoppage 331, ready."

"Blue Sky 9912 can be launched to drive with its head facing south." The apron was quite refreshing, without any waiting, and soon the launch permit was given.

"You can drive with your head facing south." This sentence was replied by Xu Cang.

After replying, Xu Cang turned on the anti-collision light, fuel pump, turned off System A, and turned on the hydraulic pump driven by the engine of System B. He tied his seat belt and said with a smile: "Go home."

Mo Shangyun was relieved when he saw Xu Cang so happy. He saw Xu Cang dazed on the bridge just now, and he thought he had encountered something difficult to solve.

The subsequent plane was very normal. After facing the runway, Mo Shangyun faced the runway, let go of his left hand from the closure wheel and put his right hand on the accelerator. After obtaining the takeoff permission from the tower, Mo Shangyun asked before handing the plane to Xu Cang: "Give you the accelerator?"

Under normal circumstances, when taking the flight, the accelerator was held by the instructor. However, Mo Shangyun knew that his level was actually taking the flight Xu Cang, so he asked Xu Cang for his opinion.

Of course, there is a reason why the accelerator is held by the instructor.

Sure enough, Xu Cang said naturally: "No need, instructor, please control it to facilitate the interruption of takeoff."

This is one of the reasons why the instructor usually controls the accelerator, because the action of interrupting takeoff should be completed by the left seat. Most of the instructors are in the left seat, which is convenient for completing the action in one go when the unintentional interruption takesoff is interrupted.

"It's up to you." It's not a big deal for anyone to control the accelerator. Mo Shangyun pressed the timing button: "Then you're handing the plane over to you."

Xu Cang stepped on the rudder with both feet and held the plate with both hands: "Connect the control."

"Continue and control, connect to communication!" After saying that, Mo Shangyun pressed the TO/GA button, and the aircraft engine began to continuously increase thrust under the action of the automatic throttle until the takeoff N1 set when the cockpit is ready.

As the plane gradually accelerated, Mo Shangyun kept making standard calls, and all data was very normal. The wind at Yangcheng Airport was also very small, and Xu Cang didn't even need to adjust the rudder to correct the direction of the plane's skiing. The end was easy and freehand.

“V1!”

After Mo Shangyun reported the V1 speed, his right hand was lowered from the thrust handle.

“Vr!”

As Mo Shangyun reported the speed of lifting the wheel, Xu Cang gently took the plane to respond without any pause. It can only be said that the take-off performance analysis given by Boeing is really something. If the wheel lifting speed is reached above, the plane can be lifted smoothly.

After the main wheel of the plane left the ground, Mo Shangyun reported a positive rise and then retracted the landing gear. But just as Mo Shangyun put away the landing gear, the plane suddenly began to look up.

Xu Cang was stunned. He obviously did not move with a pole. He had a lot of uneasiness towards the plane. In this way, Xu Cang wanted to put the plane a little bit. But just as Xu Cang relaxed the strength of the pole, the nose of the plane began to fall again, and the speed was rushing upwards.

"Hmm? What are you doing, Xu Cang? Are you not taking it?" Mo Shangyun raised his eyebrows, noticed Xu Cang's abnormal behavior, and subconsciously reminded him.

Xu Cang let out a light exclamation and then took the plane again to stabilize the speed. After that, Xu Cang did not feel any other abnormalities.

With a hint of hesitation, Xu Cang glanced at the height, connected the B channel of the autonomous driving, and pressed the N1 button, and the aircraft began to reduce its thrust.

After waiting for a while, Xu Cang saw that the plane seemed to be fine and was obviously relieved. Mo Shangyun next to him said strangely: "What happened just now? I won't bring a pole?"

While starting to adjust the UP speed, Xu Cang expressed his doubts: "A moment ago, the plane suddenly looked up. Instructor, have you noticed it?"

"I know, it's not yours?"

Humans are not machines, so it is normal for them to shake their hands slightly when they start climbing and carry too much airplane. Mo Shangyun did feel it, but he didn't think much about it, simply thinking that Xu Cang had some small occasional minor mistakes.

"No!" Xu Cang shook his head.

If it were during normal flights, Xu Cang might really have such a problem. After all, he could not always remain highly focused. However, even though he knew that the plane had abnormal lifting, Xu Cang kept enough attention at least during the takeoff stage.

Xu Cang was confident that when he was concentrating, he could accurately control every muscle in his hand, and it was impossible for him to have any movement that was contrary to his ideas. Xu Cang was sure of this.

Xu Cang recalled again, feeling more and more abnormal, and saw that the speed was rising: "Collapse the flaps."
