In the early morning of May 14, 2018, the crew of Sichuan Airlines flight 3U8633 was making pre-flight preparations in an orderly manner as usual, checking the status of the aircraft, checking emergency equipment, and counting meals? There were 9 people on board. The crew and 119 passengers are all in a relaxed mood and it should be a pleasant flight. Captain Liu Chuanjian has flown this route from Chongqing to Lhasa hundreds of times, and he already knows this difficult route well. ?Ask the flight attendants at each position to check the emergency equipment. The plane will take off soon, please fasten your seat belt. As usual, flight attendant Bi Nan reminded flight attendants and passengers to make final preparations before takeoff. Subsequently, the plane took off smoothly.

At around 7 o'clock, the plane entered cruise mode, and many passengers were still in sweet sleep. Everything in the cabin was so calm, and no one knew that danger was coming. Suddenly there was a loud bang! There was a crack in the front windshield of the right seat of the cockpit. Captain Liu Chuanjian was shocked and reacted quickly. He immediately went forward to touch the cracks and judge the condition of the glass. Out of professional sensitivity, he determined that the plane's force had been damaged and it must return immediately. At 7:08, Liu Chuanjian reported the situation to the control station, and the control station on the ground recorded the conversation at that time. ?Chengdu Chengdu, Sichuan 8633. ?Speaking. ?I'm having a bit of a breakdown now, I'm applying for a lower altitude. ?I'm going back, my windshield is cracked now. ?The windshield is cracked, right? ?Hey, right. ?Is 8633 returning to Chongqing? ?Return to Chengdu. ?Sichuan 8633 first placed 8400 to maintain. ?The controller just issued the command to lower the altitude, followed by a loud noise. Sichuan Airlines flight 3U8633 has lost contact.

Amidst the huge cracking sound, the windshield in front of the co-pilot burst. In an instant, strong winds caused serious damage to the instrument panel. The temperature in the cockpit plummeted to more than 40 degrees below zero, and the cabin lost pressure and lacked oxygen. , and at this moment, below the plane is the continuous Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and lofty mountains. Once the plane falls, the consequences will be disastrous. Amidst the huge cracking sound, the windshield in front of the co-pilot burst.

At this moment, the aircraft Below is the continuous Qinghai-Tibet Plateau with lofty mountains. Once the plane falls, the consequences will be disastrous. Please call the plane in the sky for me, Sichuan 8633. I can't call him. ?Sichuan 8633 Chengdu is calling you. ?Sichuan 8633 please reply if you hear it. ?Sichuan’s 8633 Chengdu calls you. ?The shouts kept coming, but 8633, who was out of control, couldn't hear them at all. The ground controller, who had been unable to contact the plane for a long time, realized that Sichuan 8633 was in distress and could only continue to issue instructions based on radar data. However, all the instructions disappeared in the sky with the strong wind. As long as the plane did not crash, I must Find ways to make the aircraft controllable. ?This was Liu Chuanjian’s true thoughts at that time. At this time, the altitude of the plane was 9,800 meters, and the temperature in the cockpit had dropped to more than 40 degrees below zero. Liu Chuanjian, who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, felt that his body was being torn apart. Tortured by the cold and loss of pressure, he had to use the cold-blooded clothes to turn purple. Use your hands to quickly manually operate the backup landing.

After a long period of loss of contact and extremely harsh conditions, everyone gradually lost confidence. The crew has reached the limit of human physical endurance. ?3U8633 It’s over now. ?However, 34 minutes after the accident, when the plane landed smoothly on the runway, the passengers in the cabin clapped and cheered. In the cockpit, three big men, Captain Liu Chuanjian, Second Captain Liang Peng, and Co-pilot Xu Ruichen, sat quietly, unable to say a word. Finally, Captain Liu Chuanjian summoned up the courage to speak in a hoarse voice. In a word, we are still alive. ?

Before taking off, we did not expect to die. 34 minutes ago, we did not expect to live. Survival is the most beautiful word in the world. In this life-or-death 34-minute emergency landing, the nine crew members on board all contributed to the highest professional level. Captain Liu Chuanjian was in harsh conditions such as cold, lack of oxygen, instrument panel failure, and loss of contact with the ground.

The flight data recorded Captain Liu Chuanjian’s 36 precise movements during the manual backup landing process. It was precisely by virtue of his excellent flying skills and strong willpower that he was not afraid of danger. Liu Chuanjian flew the plane for 34 minutes and successfully prepared the backup landing. No one of the 119 passengers was injured or injured. The whole unit is safe.
