It was the party's turn to serve the people. After adjusting his breathing, he entered the simulated cockpit. I am familiar with the cockpit of the J-15. I have watched a lot of pictures and videos, which are decomposed, coherent, detailed and comprehensive. I am already familiar with the cockpit layout of this model.
At this moment, it is the first time to sit in a real cockpit, feeling familiar and strange. The simulated cockpit is exactly the same as the cockpit of a fighter jet, except that it won't actually fly.
The main instructor is Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Wuyuan, a senior flying shark of the second group. He was one of the first batch of pilots to land on the ship. He is very good at teaching.
"The feeling is different from the imagination, right?" Zhang Wuyuan said with a smile. He was sitting outside the left side of the cockpit.
Dang Weimin nodded heavily, not knowing where to put his hands and feet, "Yes, teacher, it feels very different. Sitting is much more comfortable than Haishan Ying, the space is much larger, and the field of view is also very good."
"This is a heavy fighter, so of course it is more comfortable." Zhang Wuyuan said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, think about your movements, and put your hands and feet where they should be."
"yes!"
Dang Weimin put his left hand on the accelerator and his right hand on the joystick, put his feet on the left and right rudder pedals, and slowly felt it.
After waiting for more than a minute, Zhang Wuyuan asked, "Are you ready?"
"Ready." Party for the People said confidently.
Zhang Wuyuan said, "Repeat the flight mission."
"Taking to the runway, taking off and circling for three weeks before landing, taking off again and circling for three weeks, adjusting the heading 210 to follow the navigation point and flying at an airspeed of 700 kilometers per hour for five minutes, then returning to the original route and passing the navigation point to return to the airport and land. ." Party for the People answered fluently.
The entire training task is planned to take 20 minutes, plus the pause time required by the instructor to explain, generally no more than 30 minutes. That's it for the rest of the morning exercise session.
A fairly simple training task, no more complicated than the movements performed when being led by the instructor for the first time. It can be said that it is not difficult, let alone challenging. The purpose is to familiarize the trainees with the driving qualities of the J-15, which is an inevitable training task for modified flights.
"Drive." Zhang Wuyuan gave the command.
The party fired the left and right shots for the people. His movements were a little stiff, and he was obviously still a little nervous.
"roll out."
Party Weimin gently pushed the throttle lever, opened the landing gear wheel safety, slowly released the brake, and the fighter slowly slid forward. There was a sound, simulating the sound of the J-15's engine, which changed with the thrust and power. . The instrument data are of course exactly the same. Someone once joked that the current domestic simulated cockpit can be spliced and used on airplanes.
Try to be as close to reality as possible and give pilots a closer to real flying experience.
Dang Weimin taxied out of the parking space at the simulated airport and turned left along the taxiway to the take-off position of the runway. It is impossible to feel the changes in the thrust of the fighter plane through the body, but it can be expressed through vision and instrument data. Of course, the overall feeling cannot be compared with the actual machine.
During the taxiing process, the fighter plane's ground speed fluctuated quickly and slowly. The party was not yet able to master the J-15's throttle. It is like a new driver of a car who cannot control the amount of force when stepping on the accelerator, so that the car A state of frustration occurs.
However, Zhang Wuyuan didn't say anything. This was usually the case for the first time in the simulated cockpit.
"Preparations are complete before takeoff!"
The party conducted a pre-flight inspection in accordance with standard procedures, the report said.
"Time to take off." Zhang Wuyuan acted as the tower commander and issued the command.
The party quickly pushed the throttle lever to the end, and the two domestically produced high-thrust turbofan engines roared, the speed soared rapidly, and the fighter jet began to accelerate and taxi. After the airspeed exceeded the take-off requirements, Dang Weimin slowly pulled the stick back, and the nose of the plane suddenly raised, which startled Dang Weimin. He quickly pushed the stick slightly to control the extent of the nose of the plane.
Zhang Wuyuan said, "This is an improved J-5. The flight control system is more sensitive than the Haishan Eagle. You need to be familiar with the characteristics of the joystick."
"Understood." The Party for the People held its right hand steady and steadied its direction.
It continued to climb into the channel, and then turned, with a moderate amplitude, and an overload of three or four G, which was within the normal range. The accident happened at this time. Dang Weimin suddenly fainted in front of his eyes, and his right hand moved the control stick, and the fighter plane capsized. Planted diagonally towards the ground.
"What happened? Hold on!" Zhang Wuyuan was also quite surprised and said quickly.
In just two or three seconds, Dang Weimin quickly recovered, quickly trimmed the aircraft, increased the throttle to climb, adjusted the course and returned to the channel, with his face turning red and white.
"Teacher, I'm a little dizzy." Dang Weimin reported.
Zhang Wuyuan said, "Are you not feeling well? Can you continue to finish the flight?"
This is a simulated cockpit. If it were a real aircraft flying, the tower commander would definitely ask the party to return to the field and land immediately.
"Yes, no problem!" Dang Weimin said in a deep voice.
The following simulated flight training was completed well by Dang Weimin. The stage of landing according to the navigation points is still a bit difficult for novices. However, for students who have completed higher education aircraft training, it is not too difficult after they become familiar with the flight characteristics of the new aircraft model.
All students in the growth class have completed introductory training. The recent solo flight of higher education aircraft means that they have basically completed advanced training. The next step is serious carrier-based fighter flight training.
Therefore, Zhang Wuyuan does not think that the relevant foundation of Party for the People is much weaker than that of other non-growth class students. Of course, there's no comparison to the flying experience.
After completing a simulated cockpit training, Dang Weimin was very excited. His first thought was to return to the dormitory and introduce to Li Hai the flying experience of the J-15 carrier-based fighter and the condition of the cockpit, so that his comrades, who were feeling a little depressed, would have more motivation to work hard.
Zhang Wuyuan, however, paid more attention to his physical condition and asked, "Go to the aviation hospital and have a look. You will feel dizzy after being overloaded by three or four G. Have you ever experienced such a situation?"
"Tell the teacher, no. Maybe I haven't adapted to the J-15 cockpit yet, and I definitely won't do it next time." Dang Weimin quickly assured.
All pilots have undergone detailed physical examinations before entering Feisha training camp. Furthermore, pilots themselves must undergo regular physical examinations. Zhang Wuyuan believes that the party serves the people.
In the post-class summary, Zhang Wuyuan said to all ten students, "Some students who originally launched the J-11 will feel more relaxed. The J-15 originated from Su Sansan, and Su Sansan was based on Su Liangqi." Developed, our J-11 is derived from Su Liangqi, and the blood relationship is relatively close."
"But everyone has also noticed that the simulated cockpit we are using now is developed based on the latest batch of J-15, and there are some differences from the earlier batch of J-15 cockpit. In addition, the engine is also different, and the thrust is somewhat different. Increased, acceleration performance is better.”
"But I still say the same thing. You have barely taken the first step towards the Tailhook Club. There is still a long way to go. I hope that everyone, no matter what model of fighter they originally flew, will make adjustments. Have a good attitude and start from scratch."
"Okay, after the first training session, the squad leader will take the team back to eat and disband!"
Watching the squad leader of the lieutenant colonel organize the team and lead them out, Zhang Wuyuan nodded slightly and expressed that he was very satisfied with this batch of students. The Flying Shark training has been held for many periods, providing a steady stream of qualified pilots for combat forces. This is already the third batch of students led by Zhang Wuyuan. Compared with the previous two batches, the overall level of this batch of students is the highest. However, even though the Flying Shark training camp made great efforts to train carrier-based fighter pilots, it still failed to meet the needs of the troops.
The delivery date of the first domestically produced aircraft carrier and the second aircraft carrier of the People's Navy is getting closer and closer, which means that the Flying Shark force will be expanded by a factor of two. However, the training efficiency of the Flying Shark training has not increased significantly, and supply exceeds demand. Under the circumstances, the teachers responsible for the training mission of Feisha felt deeply stressed.
In the past three years, there have been more and more students from the Western Falcon Force, and the number of people who have finally obtained the qualifications for sea landings ranks first among all the forces, so much so that Hainan Airlines, which is determined to get rid of the Air Force's blood transfusion, is vacillating - both If you want to get rid of your dependence on the big brother of the Air Force, you can't bear to part with the high-quality students from the Western Falcon Force.
During the meal, Dang Weimin kept listening to the conversations of other students and gradually learned more information. For example, the squad leader is Lieutenant Colonel Han Hongjun from the Western Falcon Force, who is said to be the nemesis of the Golden Helmet. Someone took the Golden Helmet, and he was proud of defeating the Golden Helmet.
The Western Falcon Force refers to the Beikou Air Defense Base in a broad sense and the 101st Aviation Brigade in a narrow sense, so it is also called the Falcon Brigade.
Han Hongjun smiled and said to Lin Xiaotong next to him, "There are relatively few people from our Falcon Brigade among this group of students. Six of the thirteen people in the previous batch came from our Falcon Brigade. The Eagle Falcon Brigade is a flying shark unit. This is how the term "seed troops" comes from, and it is worthy of its name."
Major Lin Xiaotong from the Wanghai Brigade of the 300th Division said with envy, "Your Eagle and Falcon Brigade is really awesome. Our deputy brigade commander Yao Dongming often talks about the time when he was stationed in Beiku for training. Whenever he mentions your Eagle and Falcon Brigade, he They are all full of praise.”
Han Hongjun secretly laughed in his heart. The then brigade captain Yao Dongming and the then division commander Bai Ou almost shot our old brigade captain Comrade Li Zhan. They gritted their teeth with hatred for the Falcon Brigade. I didn't believe it when they were full of praise.
The two Falcon Brigade students sitting diagonally across the round table suppressed laughter and lowered their heads to eat.
"The Falcon Brigade is the most professional blue force of the Air Force. Even our Bald Eagle Troops have to go there to receive a test of actual combat." A major from the HNA Bald Eagle Troops said with a smile.
Another lieutenant colonel from an air force stationed in Northeast China said with a smile, "Beikuku is the main base for large-scale aviation exercises and related training of the entire army. The Falcon Brigade is the absolute main force of the Beikku air defense base. Of course you have to accept them. inspection.”
Dang Weimin, who didn't know much about the Falcon Brigade, secretly froze after hearing this. They all had quite good backgrounds and were all school officers. He was the only one like him, a little sesame captain, a pure newcomer.
Dang Weimin didn't dare to speak anymore and continued to immerse himself in eating, thinking about confiding in Li Hai when he returned to the dormitory. At the same time, he also noticed that, as instructor Zhang Wuyuan said, most of these pilots selected from other units are masters of flying J-11 series fighters.
