Chapter 60: Resurgence
The A380 quickly ascended to an altitude of 12,000 meters in the stratosphere.
The most complex and challenging phase of takeoff, which tested the captain's flying skills, had already passed.
Zhao Hetai had visibly relaxed considerably.
Equipped with 250,000 sensors of various types, the A380 was designed to monitor all flight functions. Zhao Hetai and Qian Zhenyu confirmed, "Autopilot."
"Engaged."
"Verify climb checklist."
"Autothrust set, ECAM engaged."
With this, the takeoff phase was flawlessly completed, and Zhao Hetai felt a sense of ease. However, relaxation didn't imply carelessness.
Zhao Hetai's gaze remained fixed on the front, attentively observing all circumstances.
Li Xuan continued recording while checking the time. It was now 12:07 PM on September 20th. In just a few more minutes, they would be leaving Nanjing's airspace.
Meanwhile, at Nanjing Railway Station, the search operation had just entered its final stage.
