Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 6: Disaster
"This is flashing 019, the altitude is 5000, the speed is 330, the direction is 210, it is over." Xu Jun reported his flight data to the radio navigation station.
"Flash 109, we have seen you on the radar, please keep the altitude, turn to 180. Keep your current altitude. Over."
"Flash 109 understands. Turn to 180."
Xu Jun turned the scale of the compass to the direction of turning. According to the plan, Xu Jun will fly directly to Paris after refueling from Strasbourg, France. This is the longest period of the entire flight. For this reason, he also attached a 300-liter ME109 to the ME109. Add some insurance coefficient to the auxiliary fuel tank. In order to reduce the burden on the aircraft engine, Xu Jun deliberately reduced the engine speed and only flew at a speed slightly faster than the cruising speed. The flight to Strasbourg was fairly smooth, but after the course turned to Paris, the summer monsoon blowing inland from the sea gave Xu Jun a lot of trouble. The headwind flight made Xu Jun had to increase the throttle slightly. But the speed has slowed down a lot.
"It seems that it's time for dinner when I arrive in Paris. I don't know what delicious food the French will serve me?" Xu Jun thought happily. "I didn't expect this plane to be stronger than I thought. Maybe this flight will be completed smoothly. But that old fox lied to me and made me fly over half of Europe in fear. It is absolutely unforgivable."
just thought of this Xu Jun suddenly found that the sound of the engine sounded a slight pause. "No, I just praised you, you gave me something wrong. It sounds like which cylinder has a problem, and the power is not as good as it was at the beginning. Now I only hope that the failure will not get worse. "Xu Jun began to get nervous: "There is no other way but to fully open the throttle to maintain speed. I hope I can get to Paris as soon as possible, and I have to check it immediately after landing." It's really misfortune, here the engine failure hasn't been fixed, and then he again It was found that the rear fuselage began to tremble slightly. The stench of burning wire and rubber began to fill the cabin. "It looks like there is a big problem, this **** broken plane, that **** old fox."
Xu Jun felt that the situation was not quite right: "This is Flash 109, here is Flash 109, the plane is malfunctioning, please guide me to the nearest airport to land."
did not answer. Xu Jun was anxious, and changed several bands for continuous calls, but no one answered him. Xu Jun realized that the radio might be broken. It seems that I have to find a place for an emergency landing. Xu Jun made up his mind, immediately dropped the auxiliary fuel tank and began to descend. Smoke started to come out from under the driver's seat. Xu Jun quickly put on the oxygen mask and goggles, lowered the throttle, pushed the joystick forward, and quickly dived down. Now you have to make an emergency landing quickly, otherwise, when the smoke in the cabin thickens, you may not be able to see the ground even if you want to make an emergency landing.
Everyone may be surprised that Xu Jun is in such a dangerous situation. Why didn't Xu Jun abandon the plane to parachute and choose to make an emergency landing? The reason is simple, not because Xu Jun didn’t have a parachute, but because he never jumped over the parachute, let alone climbed out of the cockpit of such an old plane, so for Xu Jun, forced landing is probably safer than parachuting. .
"The altitude has dropped to 2000 meters now, it's almost." Xu Jun began to cheer himself up: "I won't die so easily."
The plane is still rapidly descending altitude. The houses and trees on the ground can already be seen clearly, and Xu Jun through the smoke finds that there is a large farmland ahead.
"Let's make a crash landing there. Hahaha, I really have enough luck." Xu Jun quickly lowered his **** and started to slow down, but he didn't wait for him to celebrate his good luck, suddenly. . . .
"Submarine?...Ah!!! Get out!"
boom!
Many residents near Troyes in France that day saw a fireball burst out of the low altitude to the north, and then broke into fragments and fell to nearby farmland. After receiving the report from the residents, the local police rushed to the scene of the accident and found part of the wreckage of a small plane and part of the remains of the pilot. After investigation and identification, the police determined that this was the wreckage of the missing ME109, and the identity of the body was confirmed. It was indeed the brave young Chinese pilot Xu Jun. All European countries expressed their condolences for the death of this brave pilot.
After the incident, government agencies conducted thorough analysis and research on the wreckage of the aircraft and the tape in the flight recorder (that recorder was the only modern instrument allowed by the curator on that aircraft), and found some illogical interactions The phenomenon of contradictions caused great disagreements among experts for this, and until the end no one could give a reasonable explanation for the exact cause of the accident. The death of the young Chinese pilot became a mystery, especially the last shout of Xu Jun on the audio tape that puzzled future generations of scholars. What happened that day at the last moment of his life?
