Pilot Li Jun once flew a plane that lost the use of its on-board navigation system 10 minutes after takeoff.
"We had no directions on how to fly from Beijing to Haikou in Hainan province," he says.
"More than 100 passengers were on board. The plane could have got lost and ended up hundreds of miles away from the preset destination."
