Height, one thousand meters.
Height, five hundred meters.
"boom!"
When he reached an altitude of 400 meters, Zhou Hai opened his parachute without hesitation, and with a deep voice, a delicate white umbrella flower bloomed.
After successfully opening the umbrella, Zhou Hai controlled the ring with both hands and locked the white circle on the lower right.
Three hundred meters.
Two hundred meters.
One hundred meters.
Fifty meters.
The worrying level 12 gale did not suddenly appear. Everything was normal and stable. Zhou Hai, hanging on the white umbrella flower, accurately fell into the center of the white circle in the ground examination room at a speed of more than five meters per second.
"Boom!"
The exquisite non-slip combat boots came into contact with the grass on the ground, and Zhou Hai rolled along, releasing the force.
Passed the professional skydiving subject assessment.
Standing within the white circle, Zhou Hai straightened his back, stared at the scorching sun above his head at the top of the sky, his eyebrows stretched, his face relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief inside.
Next to the ground examination room, a soldier recorded Zhou Hai's skydiving results and transmitted the results to the campus data management system through a dedicated military panel without leaving any backup.
On the other side, in the training base, a military panel with a higher level of confidentiality in Zhang Qinlei's hand showed green words indicating that he had passed the professional parachuting subject.
"Hello, comrade, I will take you back to the base." At this time, a soldier from the ground examination room trotted over, saluted Zhou Hai, who was standing quietly, and said seriously.
Zhou Hai came back to his senses, collected his inner emotions, smiled, and raised his hand in return: "Sorry to trouble you, comrade."
Following this soldier, Zhou Hai left the white circle and returned to the training base dozens of kilometers away by car.
Tens of minutes later, Zhou Hai returned to the base and saw Zhang Qinlei who had been waiting for him.
"Zhou Hai, congratulations to you for fully passing the grade-skipping assessment. God rewards your hard work. I hope you will work hard day and night in your future study and life at the aviation school, become talented as soon as possible, dare to fight hard, fly the most advanced fighter planes, and protect the safety of the airspace of the motherland! "Zhang Qinlei stood quietly in the playground, raised his right hand to Zhou Hai, extended a military salute and the blessings of his elders, and his eyes contained a hint of expectation.
expect,
bless,
And encouragement.
The Zhou Hai in front of him was a completely talented student pilot. Zhang Qinlei had never seen a student pilot like Zhou Hai in the more than ten years he had been working at the aviation school.
Zhou Hai had a serious face, held his chest straight, his back as straight as a benchmark, raised his right hand in return, and said seriously: "Thank you very much, chief!"
"Pack your bags, let's go back." Zhang Qinlei nodded with satisfaction and gave instructions.
Returning to the temporary single-room dormitory, Zhou Hai packed his luggage and, together with Zhang Qinlei, hurriedly left the training base by car again without making too many stops, and went straight to the three city air force bases.
We were lucky today. A Y-20 heavy-duty strategic transport aircraft was flying from the three city air force bases to carry a batch of military supplies to Harbin in the north. Zhou Hai and Zhang Qinlei were able to take advantage of the opportunity.
The quality and style of this toilet are constantly rising.
No way, the Y-20 heavy-duty strategic transport aircraft, codenamed 'Kunpeng', is the latest big guy in service with the Air Force. It has a maximum takeoff weight of 220 tons, a payload of up to 66 tons, and an effective range of 8,000 kilometers. It adopts a variety of new aviation technologies and is mainstream. Critical airfoils and lots of composites.
The two arrived at the air force base in the three cities. After signing relevant confidentiality regulations and responsibility letters, they came to the tarmac and saw the cargo hold of the Y-20 Kunpeng that was loading military supplies.
"You guys go in, we will take off in an hour." The air force major responsible for commanding the installation of cargo reminded Zhang Qinlei and Zhou Hai.
"Trouble." Zhang Qinlei nodded and looked at Zhou Hai: "Let's go in."
"Good boy, it's so big."
Looking at the silver-gray Yun-20, which was as tall as a building, Zhou Hai couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration. The behemoth in front of him, which embodies countless aviation technologies, is an out-and-out aviation monster.
With a height of 15 meters, a length of 47 meters, and a wingspan of 50 meters, one Y-20 is as large as ten J-10s.
"The confidentiality level of this new toy is very high, please pay attention." Zhang Qinlei smiled when he saw Zhou Hai looking like this and reminded him.
"Understood." Zhou Hai nodded lightly, followed Zhang Qinlei's footsteps, entered the spacious cargo hold, and walked deeper into the cabin.
There were no corresponding seats provided in the cabin, so Zhang Qinlei and Zhou Hai sat on the ground against the wall of the cabin.
This Y-20 is a serious transport aircraft. It is not a modified parachute aircraft belonging to the airborne troops. It is absolutely impossible to waste precious transport space to add seats.
Forty-five minutes later, the spacious cargo hold was already filled with boxes, and the huge hatch slowly closed under the power of the hydraulic device.
Subsequently, the three pilots on the crew each left the aircraft, circled the fuselage, checked whether there were any faults on the fuselage, and conducted relevant safety inspections before takeoff.
The inspection work is tedious and serious and takes about ten minutes.
The three pilots returned to the cockpit one after another, preparing to take off without communicating with Zhou Hai and Zhang Qinlei.
The fuel is full and the safety checks are correct.
The ground crew drove a heavy-duty tractor to tow the Y-20 out of the huge apron and onto the taxiing runway.
On arrival at the taxiway, the heavy tractor pulls away and the area around the runway is cleared.
"boom!"
Not long after, the four aviation turbofan D30-KP-2 aviation turbofan engines started coldly, emitting an almost roaring roar.
Waiting for a steady stream of power to act on the fuselage, the silver-grey Y-20 strategic transport aircraft drove slowly on the taxiway and entered the slender main runway of the airport.
Accelerate and take off.
Four aviation turbofan engines output a high amount of power like the sea, driving the Yun-20. After taxiing for nearly 800 meters, it reaches the critical speed for takeoff. The complex supercritical airfoil and flaps divide the air and generate pressure. The difference creates lift.
Raising its head slightly, the entire Y-20 flew into the blue sky like an eagle with spread wings, accompanied by a roar that echoed through the sky.
"Transport aircraft are really not my thing. There is no excitement in taking off." Zhou Hai, who was sitting in the cargo hold and experiencing the take-off process of the Y-20, shook his head slightly and made an inner evaluation.
Passion!
Yes, a slow and heavy transport aircraft without any passion for flying is far inferior to an extremely flexible fighter jet.
The two people sitting on the spot were silent all the way.
The air force bases in the three cities are located in the north and south of Harbin Air Force Base. The flight distance is about 3,500 kilometers and takes nearly five hours.
Calculating the time, after arriving at the Harbin Air Force Base, we will return to Chuncheng Aviation School, just in time for dinner.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Hai and Zhang Qinlei, who had traveled nearly 7,000 kilometers in two days, arrived at the Harbin Air Force Base in the snow-covered sky. They then took a military vehicle and returned to Chuncheng Aviation School.
After returning to the aviation school, what happens next has nothing to do with Zhou Hai. He just needs to wait quietly.
PS: The last chapter is about skydiving to commemorate the fifteen skydiving warriors. There will be another update in the evening for the ten-year anniversary.
