Liu Chuanjian: the Hero Pilot Volunteering to Fly the Relief Mission

Liu Chuanjian is deputy general manager of the Flight Training and Management Department of Sichuan Airlines. He was once command pilot of the Chongqing Branch. He is called "hero pilot" and "China's Captain Sully," and his story has been turned into a moving movie The Chinese Pilot. 

On May 14, 2018, while he was piloting Flight 3U8633 from Chongqing to Lhasa, the right front windshield of the cockpit suddenly cracked. In spite of an extremely low temperature, lack of oxygen, strong wind and deafening noise, Liu and his crew manually operated the aircraft and made an emergency landing in Chengdu, ensuring the safety of all 119 passengers on board and creating a miracle in the history of civil aviation.

On February 2, 2020, Sichuan dispatched 120 medical workers to assist Hubei. Liu Chuanjian had applied to fly the mission, "This is a normal flight, and an arduous task. We will live up to our mission and return safely." He flew the mission again on February 9 and successfully transported the sixth batch of Sichuan's medical personnel to Hubei.
