He suddenly heard a “bang” burst, and the wind in front of the right seat was in front of the wind. The Cinema barrier glass shattered in a mesh shape, and the crew immediately reported to the air traffic control department: “The plane had a malfunction and was ready to return.” “Less than a second after the report, I heard a loud bang, and turned my head and saw half of the co-pilot fly out of the window, and the plane began to fall and increase in speed.” Liu Chuanjian said that after the windshield glass ruptured and fell off, the biggest problem faced was lack of oxygen and cold. At that time, the temperature outside the cabin was about -40℃ and the speed was about 800 kilometers per hour. The aircraft must drop to the lowest altitude as soon as possible. “But if the falls quickly, the speed will increase and the impact will be greater. Faced with this ‘difficult’, we chose the appropriate speed to drop to a safe height while ensuring safety.” He recalled that his body was almost deformed at the time, and his ears could not hear any sound at one time, and after a while, all he heard was noise. After that, the crew can only communicate by gestures. Despite the severe situation, Liu Chuanjian is still confident in controlling the plane. He said: “I am very confident in this route and I am also very decisive in making the reserve landing decision. I thought about it briefly and found that I have been flying this route hundreds of times, and the plane has such a fault. As a simulator instructor, I have set up such subjects and know it in my mind, so I have very control over the position and overall situation of the plane.” Liang Peng, the second captain, also said that although the simulator cannot completely remain in the situation at that time, the crew has been following the standard training procedures, which is the main reason for the final good results. For the captain, will this experience make them “fly”? Liang Peng smiled and said that he was professional: “I’m not afraid.”

But through our comfort and guidance, every passenger tied his seat belt and pulled down the oxygen mask to inhale oxygen, so no passengers Babaylan, but through our comfort and guidance, every passenger tied his seat belt and pulled down the oxygen mask to inhale oxygen, so no passengers Komiks was injured. ”
Bi Nan introduced that he was in the front cabin duty position and felt cold. However, he later learned that the passengers were not particularly cold in the cabin. After the flight stabilized, the crew comforted the passengers. “At that time, there were passengers crying, so we told them: ‘Believe us, we have been professionally trained, and we Babaylan can safely deliver you to the destination. ’ Every flight attendant has said this sentence. We have a clear idea in our hearts, we believe in the captain, and our training every day. ”Babaylan
