htmlAugust 15th is just an ordinary Thursday for many people. That day, you and I sighed because of some news they saw, or turned to others and said, "I don't want you to think, I want me to think", or maybe they are looking forward to it with their fingers: Friday is coming, will the weekend be far away?
But for the 233 people in a certain sky, they had just walked through the gates of hell.
At around 6 o'clock that morning, a plane from Moscow to Simferopol, the capital of Crimea, took off on time.

For passengers on the plane, this is a relatively easy flight. Because it takes more than two hours to get from Moscow to Simferopol, and it takes only one sleep.
But no one expected that the plane had just taken off and hit a group of seagulls.
Don’t think that this is nothing big. You should know that birds (flocks) hitting planes is listed as a major factor threatening aviation safety.
Because the plane flies fast, it often causes damage after collision with birds. In severe cases, it may cause the plane to crash.
This time the seagull not only hit the plane, but was also swept into the engine.
A passenger on the plane took a video at that time. From the video, we can see a black shadow swaying by. Then we can hear that after a collision, a strange sound came from the engine on the left side of the plane.

At the same time, people also noticed that thin smoke floated out of the engine, and some people said that they even smelled the burning smell at that time. At this time, the plane began to shake violently, and the lights were flashing constantly.
This made the passengers on the plane panic. Some people sometimes said that at that moment, he held the cross on his chest tightly and prayed to God.

At this time, they didn't know that because of the impact of the seagull, the two engines of the plane were damaged one after another and stopped working.
When the first engine failed, Captain Damir Yusupov thought of returning to the airport immediately. After all, they had just taken off, but when he found that the second engine was damaged immediately and could not provide enough power to complete the action, he knew that there was no time.
There are 233 people on the plane and more than a dozen tons of fuel. The engine is useless and the plane loses the power to continue flying. If the problem is not seized to solve the best time, if it hits something or falls, the worst result will be that the plane is destroyed and the body is gone.
The situation at this time is already an option without a way out for Captain Damir Yusupov. The aircraft must land and must land safely as soon as possible.

He immediately made a decision to find the nearest and relatively soft area for emergency landing. Fortunately, one kilometer of the plane's takeoff runway, he chose a cornfield to reduce the impact of the collision.
At the same time, he also decided not to turn on the landing gear this time to avoid the plane's overturning.
Then, Damir Yusupov completed the landing with manual operations, which was very smooth and smooth. There was no fire, no explosion, no passengers were seriously injured, and only some passengers were slightly injured.

At the moment when the plane successfully landed, cheers and applause broke out on the plane. At that moment, everyone was glad that they were safe and sound. After getting off the plane, they hugged each other and celebrated. and Damir Yusupov are also regarded as heroes by people.

They said that it was Damir Yusupov who saved them, making this shocked and safe. This day, they became their new life.
Although Damir Yusupov does not think he is a hero and feels that he has just made a judgment as appropriate, his story is being spread and grateful in an exciting way. Many people think that he is the real Russian hero.
In fact, Damir Yusupov's life is also quite legendary.
He is 41 years old this year. Before he was 32 years old, he was still a famous lawyer . Until now, at the age of 41, he only has more than 3,000 hours of flying hours. Although it is not short, it is not long.
Since childhood, Damir Yusupov has a flying dream, hoping that he can fly in the blue sky in a plane.
reality always has some ups and downs. Although he has always had a special liking for flight and his father is also a Mi-8 helicopter pilot, but when he was young, he failed to pass the physical examination when he applied for flight school, he failed to pass the physical examination, so he entered the law department to study.
After that, he worked as a lawyer in the local government and lived like this until he was 32 years old.
However, he never forgot his dream of blue sky. In his 30s, he regained the dream that had never faded from his heart. He was admitted to the Flight Academy, graduated with excellent results, became the deputy captain in 2013, and last year, became the captain.

Today, more than 200 lives have been saved. After all this, he called and told his wife:
"Everything is good, everyone, alive."
Yesterday, Putin had ordered the title of Damir Yusupov and his co-pilot Russian hero, Damir Yusupov, a veritable national hero.

However, in Russia, Damir Yusupov is not the only hardcore captain. If you leave a message, you say: Ah, you don’t feel strange when you see it is a Russian captain.
Because the Russian captain's operation is notorious.
For example, when the haze is coming, we will definitely not be prepared to drop and not cancel it. I don’t want you to think, I want you to think, I think you can fly, this is my last stubbornness. I circled around the place for more than eight circles, and then landed again. What can you do to me with the haze?
Don’t be afraid of smog, and they don’t be afraid of thunder and heavy rain.
What were the conditions for the capital airport at that time? Heavy rain, hail and strong winds bring super convective weather. This is the weather. Russian Airlines landed 22 minutes earlier than planned. Compared with other people's homes, there were still planes in the air for several hours but they didn't land.

So everyone sighed: Russian planes only take off later, and no one arrives later.
A while ago, many flights were cancelled, and some netizens discovered that Russian Airlines still flew as they did. Russian Airlines said: Is it because my Russian Airlines can’t get the knife, or is it because your typhoon is too fluttering?
There are also many people who have been on the Russian Airlines plane and said that the captain's operation is very skillful and vigorous, and he can even vomit if he is accidentally.
and there is a saying that after the plane landed, all the people on the plane had a repertoire program that thanked the captain for not killing him. (But in fact, applause is just a tradition of expressing gratitude, not to thank you for not killing you)
However, although everyone thinks that Russian Airlines is very tough, and flying in bad weather is also a "fighter" in the plane, does not mean that they are not safe. After all, no one will joke about the lives of passengers.

This time the hero captain landed successfully is the best proof? Although they are tough, they are also very stable and accurate. The fighting nation is not just a talk!
