Life and Death Crisis

Chapter 45: Life and Death Crisis

Liao Fei rushed to the cockpit and found that Wang Liqiang had already restrained Turner. He immediately rushed back again, intending to cooperate with the four bodyguards to take down the last two terrorists.

Cameron's bodyguard was fierce, riding on Ada's body and pounding on it, easily knocking it out. He picked up his gun and joined the reinforcements.

The four men opened fire and instantly pinned down the terrorists' firepower. Although the four had not worked together before, they worked well together, two firing and two assaulting. At first glance, they were all from special forces.

One terrorist was hit in the eyebrow by Liao Fei and fell down. A bodyguard also hit the last terrorist, who was not killed immediately and kept firing as he fell. Three bullets hit a porthole window, instantly putting several cracks in the glass.

The passengers sitting in the porthole position watched as the cracks gradually grew larger, and suddenly there was a flash of white light and a loud popping sound as the porthole burst, followed by the surrounding pods flying out with a bang, blowing out a large hole of nearly three meters. The person sitting in the broken hole was directly blown out and disappeared into the 10,000 meters high altitude.

In order to avoid the high altitude low pressure, lack of oxygen environment "plateau reaction", the aircraft has been in the heating and pressure state flight. The higher the altitude, the lower the air pressure. The pressure inside the aircraft is greater than the pressure at 10,000 meters, so when the fuselage ruptures, a large amount of air rushes out from the breach.

The density of air is 1.29 kg per cubic meter, and with the huge pressure difference, nearly a meal of material passes through the breach at a very high speed within a few seconds. The moment the burst opening appears, the air near the burst opening rushes out of the opening, which in turn generates ultra-low pressure in its place, the surrounding air will fill in, this process occurs in a rapid chain throughout the aircraft, resulting in the entire aircraft air to the burst opening. This tremendous force then instantly carries people and objects out of the aircraft.

The oxygen masks on top of all the seats automatically fall down and the cabin is filled with wailing. Several bodyguards quickly grabbed the seats next to them and held on for dear life to avoid being carried out by the airflow. Some people who had previously unbuckled their seat belts to avoid bullets and squeezed next to others were instantly blown out by the airflow and taken outside the cabin to a height of 10,000 meters.

Liao Fei was lying on the ground, holding onto the seat with both hands for dear life, and people were blown sideways. He Jiayu was blown up by the airflow, not grabbing the fixings next to her, and flew towards the breach of the economy class. Liao Fei saw He Jiayu flying over and grabbed her arm. The instant impact almost took Liao Fei away. Even so, Liao Fei grabbed the seat with one hand and took the burden of the force that the two of them endured, and his hand slid away from the seat a little.

He Jiayu knew that Liao Fei could not bear, she did not want both were, shouted: "Let go, let go."

Liao Fei did not have the strength to speak, to use all his strength against the airflow, he clutched her arm to show his determination.

The loss of pressure in the cabin was only a momentary thing, and the pressure soon reached equilibrium. Liao Fei and He Jiayu landed in the cabin with a thud.

The air pressure at 10,000 meters is about 30 kPa (1 standard atmosphere is about 101 kPa), and the oxygen content is only 30% of the sea level, with the temperature at about -35°C. A person exposed to such an environment would be instantly in danger of losing his life. When the cabin loses pressure, passengers can suffer damaged eardrums, nose bleeding, and in severe cases, rupture of blood vessels and organs. After the cabin pressure and the pressure of the 10,000 meters high altitude, the lack of pressure, lack of oxygen environment, once the oxygen concentration is reduced, people inhale less oxygen, the oxygen in the arterial blood is reduced, the body organs do not get sufficient oxygen supply, physiological disorders occur, will produce hyperventilation, dizziness, weakness of the limbs, vomiting and other reactions, leading to death in serious cases.

In the absence of oxygen, high cold, if the plane continues to fly at 10,000 meters, not long, the passengers on board have to freeze to death, no one can run. And even if someone is resistant to cold, the emergency oxygen reserve connected to the oxygen mask is only enough for people to breathe for ten minutes.

Liao Fei stood up and frantically ran towards the cockpit, where he had to run as fast as possible to lower the plane's altitude. To be fast, faster ... because he only had a maximum of one minute, if he could not run to the cockpit, then without oxygen he could only die halfway.

He ran wildly, using all his strength. When he pounced on the captain's position in the cockpit, his face was already blue and his eyes were starry-eyed, and he was about to pass out.

Liao Fei held the oxygen mask down on his face and breathed heavily to ease his impending fainting symptoms.

He was better and immediately sat down, fastened his seat belt and put on the oxygen mask. With a push of the joystick, the airliner immediately flew headlong downward.

Liao Fei had received flight training in the special forces, but he had only done simulations on the flight simulator, and this was the first time he flew a real airplane. The key problem was that he had flown Chinese J-8 fighter jets and helicopters on the simulator, but never simulated a passenger plane, and a large one at that.

The six screens on the main console showed the aircraft attitude, performance, engine parameters and other data, Liao Fei looked dazzled, dazed head.

Fortunately, the plane's joystick and aircraft throttle lever are still similar, which allows him not to be completely overwhelmed.

The airliner made an emergency descent, dropping 1200 meters per minute. The plane's speed increased to 500 kilometers per hour.

The passengers panicked, having just escaped, not realizing that the plane would have to crash. Those who believed in Jesus began to pray for entry into heaven. Those who believe in Islam prayed to go to Allah's garden ... Young people took out their cell phones and sent one last text message to their families. Lovers hold hands, with love passing through their eyes. Adults hugging children, tears in their eyes ...

The broken glass windows and cabin of the airliner hit the Typhoon fighter jet that followed the airliner with a speed faster than a bullet. Not only will the plane hit several holes, a piece of metal from the fighter's air intake into the fighter, directly to the engine to fire and smoke.

The Typhoon's alarm device kept going off. Kent pulled on the stick for dear life and made a final call: "The airliner blew a huge breach, my plane was hit by a piece of metal break and lost control."

The air force commander shouted, "Abandon the aircraft and eject immediately."

The fighter flew down and Kent could already see that there was a town below, and if he ejected now, the fighter would smash right into the town. The fighter was loaded with ammunition, and once it caused a martyrdom explosion, the consequences were even more serious. Kent to avoid the plane crashed into the town. He forced control and planned to wait until he flew over the town before ejecting.

Kent's wingman saw his plane smoking and descending so fast that he feared he would not have a chance to eject if he had to avoid the town. The wingman pilot shouted, "Captain, eject, now!"

Kent didn't answer, his face tense as he kept a firm grip on the twitching stick.

The Typhoon fighter flew past the last house in town and plunged headlong into the sky and earth. Kent only had time to glance at the photo of his wife above the dashboard before crashing. It turned into a fireball along with the fighter.

A wail sounded from Kent's wingman, and after informing the base of the crash, pilot Hasseth pulled the lever and chased after the fast-landing airliner.

In the conference room of the prime minister's residence, the chief officers who heard the crash of Kent's fighter plane fell silent, and the prime minister and the defense minister stopped arguing.

They were not heartbroken about the fighter jet, which cost 77.7 million euros, nor were they sad about the fallen Kent, but they were shocked about what really happened on the plane. There was a fight between the terrorists and the passengers, and who really won? Who is now in control of the airliner? Was it Nelson or the passengers on the plane.

The prime minister said: "Contact the airliner immediately, I want to know what happened? Who is in control of the plane. Get the other Typhoon fighter to check the cockpit."

As an order came out, Hasseth flew the Typhoon fighter over the rapidly descending airliner and looked inside.

The tower was also calling the airliner over and over again, and flight c993 responded.

Liao Fei with oxygen mask, responding to a bullshit ah! He is driving the plane with full power, if in order to respond, the plane in a direct smash on the ground, the joke is big!

Hasseth saw a person flying the plane, but because of the mask, he could not accurately determine whether it was the terrorist who was in the cabin before or someone else.

The prime minister received responses from both sides, but neither could tell exactly what happened to the airliner. Asked, "Why isn't flight c993 answering? Do you have any guesses?"

Howard flew the plane and knew the condition after the loss of pressure, said, "The airliner's hull broke smooth, which would cause a loss of cabin pressure, and the pilot could not respond if he was wearing an oxygen mask. Only when the plane descends to about 9,000 feet, the pilot will take off the mask and can talk normally."

"You say that the airliner is not answering now because the pilot is descending. And who exactly is the person flying the plane?" Without getting an answer from anyone, the prime minister said, "Have the fighter follow the airliner to 9,000 feet, and if it won't answer again, shoot it down."

Clement cut the Prime Minister's words in half automatically and informed Harseth, "Follow the airliner, keep in contact with it, and if it refuses to respond, wait for me to give the order to shoot it down."

The prime minister was somewhat displeased that Clement had automatically changed the timing of the shootdown from being automatically chosen by the pilot to being under his control. But now that he had hope in his heart that the airliner was successfully rescued by its passengers, he didn't pick on Clement.

Hasseth followed the airliner, in order to be able to destroy it at any time. He locked the fire control radar on the airliner, just waiting for a command to blow the airliner to pieces and avenge the dead Kent.

Liao Fei saw the radar lock alarm light on in the cockpit, and the alarms kept ringing, but he didn't have time to care about these things, he just concentrated on controlling the plane's descent.

Six minutes later, the plane landed to an altitude of about 2,900 meters. Liao Fei set to autopilot, took off the oxygen mask, picked up the headset and said, "mayday, mayday, mayday."

mayday is an international radio call distress signal. The original French word m'aider, pronounced in English, became mayday. mayday calls on the radio refer to a life-threatening, real-time danger situation. A mayday call must be made three times in a row to avoid mishearing.

Both the tower and Hasseth received Liao Fei's mayday, and the tower said, "This is Heathrow International Airport, flight c993, what's happening on board?"

"The terrorists on board have been eliminated, and then in the firefight with the hijackers, the cabin ruptured, electronic instruments Shun broken, and a large number of passengers injured, need to emergency landing."
