At the critical moment of life and death, the correct handling of the heroic crew ensured the safety of all personnel on board and created a miracle in the history of world civil aviation.

Approximately 40 minutes after departure while over Xiaojin County, Sichuan at the altitude of 9 km, the right front segment of the windshield separated from the aircraft followed by an uncontrolled decompression.

As a result of the sudden decompression, the flight control unit was damaged, and the loud external noise made spoken communications impossible.

One of the flight attendants on the aircraft, Zhou Yanwen (周彦雯), also suffered a wrist injury after a large gust of wind from the cockpit caused her to fly to the roof of the cabin and land on the floor.

Owing to the insulation design of the Airbus A319, the temperature did not drop immediately for the passengers, despite the cockpit's exposure to the outside environment, saving them from frostbite.

Director Andrew Lau, producer Peggy Lee and two stars, Zhang Hanyu and Yuan Quan, also took this flight and witnessed this special moment together with Liu Chuanjian and all members of the "CAAC hero crew.

[9] Zhang Hanyu, Yuan Quan and other casts went to the location of the incident to collect information, met with those who were involved in the event, and listened to the hero crew to envision the situation.

[10] To make the real "flying experience" available for the big screen audience, Bona Film Group invested nearly 30 million yuan in building a 1:1 airbus A319 simulator, used a motion platform to simulate the bumpiness and dizziness caused by the plane falling sharply at the height of 9800 meters, and brought in the Hollywood team who produced special effects for big Hollywood films such as Star Wars, Captain America, and Thor 3.

[11] To play the role, Oho Ou had to wear three hours of makeup with special effects to depict his character's injury after the accident.

[12] The "flying trio" of Zhang Hanyu, Ou Hao and Du Jiang learned theory in the classroom in the morning and practiced the plane driving skills in the simulation cabin in the afternoon in order to understand their characters' experience.
