The crew could not put down the landing gear in all emergency methods and had to choose emergency landing. In the face of the sudden test, the flight attendants, with their courage and love, helped the passengers prepare for all the safety of the forced landing. Passengers gradually calmed down from nervous panic. After a series of thrilling efforts, the forced landing was successful, all personnel escaped safety, and the aircraft was safe and sound.
