講解

今天我們要講的是一位飛機機長的故事。

A Chinese airline rewarded one of its pilots with three million yuan for preventing a collision(碰撞) between two planes that could have killed 439 people.

在東方航空公司召開的上海虹橋機場10.11事件何超機組表彰大會上。A320機組機長何超被評為先進黨員，并獎勵人民幣300萬元。

同時，該客機機組也獲得表彰以及人民幣60萬元獎勵。怎么回事兒呢？

He Chao's Airbus A320 was about to take off from an airport in Shanghai last month when it encountered another airplane in its path along the runway.

10月11日深夜，何超及其機組成員駕駛的A320客機載著147名乘客接到塔臺指令開車滑出，12時03分，塔臺指揮飛機進入36L跑道，機組在執行完起飛前檢查單確認跑道無障礙的情況下，執行起飛動作。

The flight was about to take off when another flight had just landed and was taxiing nearby.

According to the simulation video, the other flight was speeding up on the runway when Mr. He spotted the A330 entering its runway just feet away.

另一架客機正載著266名旅客穿越36L跑道準備停靠航站樓。眼看兩架飛機就要呈“T”字型相撞了。

At that moment, He Chao chose to accelerate and fly over the other aircraft avoiding a head-on crash by just 19 metres.

And his aircraft narrowly missed the other plane.

最終A320從A330上方掠過，未造成撞擊。而實際上，兩架客機垂直距離最短僅19米。3秒！ 如果再晚3秒，恐怕就要導致機毀人亡的后果。400多人的生命也會受到嚴重的威脅。事后調查相關機構進行了事故調查。

An investigation launched by China's aviation authority, CAAC, found that air traffic control were at fault for the incident.

CAAC suggested that the control centre and the crew members of the A330 failed to maintain proper communication with the controller.

一起特大事故有幸避免，有網友留言說，獎勵300萬一點都不多。人的生命是無法用金錢衡量的，何超機長當時的迅速反應真是太帥了。霸氣！
