Descent from an altitude of 10,000 meters [MTL] (Completed)

Chapter 48 Telephone

While Chen Jiayu took the flight case out of the airport and took a taxi to the hotel, she chatted with him about the chaotic scene in the Pudong tower frequency before leaving the ground today. Fang Hao replied: "Pudong is very busy recently. I heard from Sister Yan'er. , they are even more short of people than we are, it’s really one person doing the work of two people. I can only say that fortunately there is a gap, fortunately there is a gap.”

"I guess the captain of Shandong Airlines has lost his salary this month," Chen Jiayu said, "You can ask Su Li."

"The recitation was correct but the separation was wrong again. Alpha-5 and Charlie-5 are so different and they can still get it wrong. The crew has to bear the blame." Fang Hao complained.

"Well, it's not like the one today..." Chen Jiayu recalled: "8177 and 8718? They are really similar."

"Hey, you remember it quite clearly. This is another example. 8718 is twenty nautical miles away from the ground. In a hurry to change the frequency of the tower, some people are confused when repeating it..." Fang Hao looked at him I remembered it clearly, so I added a few words, "There are even more powerful ones. I once encountered three aircrafts, Eastern 8564, 8565, and 8575, at the Capital Airport in my control area at the same time. After pointing out that flight, I almost had a schizophrenia. , be reminded of this situation at every handover.”

"So extreme?" Chen Jiayu was also surprised.

"Well, it's all probability. No matter how small the probability is, even if it's one in 10,000, if you command 500 aircraft an hour, thousands of aircraft per shift, or tens of thousands of aircraft throughout the year, you will always encounter it." He paused and said : "You guys are flying... aren't you? After tens of thousands of hours, you will always encounter some minor problems."

Chen Jiayu hummed, remembering the emergency landing in Hong Kong. That was December 11th three years ago, and today is indeed... infinitely close to Hong Kong's third anniversary. He had never mentioned to Fang Hao that the Hong Kong emergency landing scene was included in the simulator training for new pilots. After Shao Yingpeng wanted to inquire for him but he refused, he only talked about it with his father and Zhou Qichen. Ostensibly because he felt that pilots understood pilots better. But on a deeper level, talking about these "what if" situations actually brought him a lot of uncertainty and self-doubt. He has always been self-reliant with a decisive and courageous image outside, so he instinctively avoided this uncertain side in front of Fang Hao.

Fang Hao seemed to have noticed his thoughts through the phone line. He hesitated for a moment and then said to him: "Chen Jiayu, I haven't seen you for a long time recently... are you okay?"

Chen Jiayu felt it was inconvenient to talk on the phone, so he said, "It's fine. What's wrong?"

Fang Hao felt a little awkward when he didn't take the initiative to mention it, but he still mentioned it: "It's about Hong Kong. It's going to be the official day soon." It's not that he's careless, it's just that he's usually wrong, and they haven't seen each other much recently. No chance to discuss this issue in depth.

"I don't have any special feelings about anniversaries...accident anniversaries are just meaningful to outsiders." Chen Jiayu whispered, "For Chang Bin and I, every day after that day is an anniversary." . In those first few months, not a day goes by that I don’t think about it.”

"You... are so serious." Fang Hao's voice was a little serious. It's not like he didn't know the impact of the Hong Kong incident on him before. Chen Jiayu confessed to him from the bottom of his heart. However, at that time, he only admitted to Fang Hao that the forced landing in Hong Kong made him more demanding on himself and his fellow crew members. He didn't mention the psychological impact on him, but he had nightmares and woken up more than once at night, and Fang Hao could guess that it was probably related to this. "Have you thought about anyone to talk to? Not your family, not me, not friends, professional people."
