J-8F No. 81104 flew staggeringly towards the Forgotten Reef Airport. After more than 40 excruciating minutes and maintaining an airspeed of more than 600 per hour, the formation finally saw the Forgotten Reef.
Xue Zhengrong asked the party for the people, "Dong 4, the appearance of the aircraft is normal, why is there still a shaking scene? Check the control system again."
"Understood, check the control system again..." Dang Weimin breathed quickly and quickly checked the control system, even all systems, and reported, "The control system is normal, and all systems are normal."
"Okay, it'll be okay. Just follow me and fly."
Entering the stage of decline, Xue Zhengrong comforted the party for the people, instructing the party to do it for the people every time it took a step, and made sure that the party had completed the action for the people before taking the next step.
"Flap landing position."
"Understood, flaps down position, completed."
"Aim for the runway."
"Aim for the runway."
"Airspeed 400, lower the landing gear."
…
Of course, Party for the People can obtain all information through instruments. The problem is that Xue Zhengrong knows very well that it is difficult for Party for the People to obtain accurate data through instruments - he has panicked.
In fact, Xue Zhengrong regretted that he should not have let the two rookies fly into the air so quickly. He believed that pilots from the Flying Shark Force, even new pilots, should not be of such a standard, not to mention that they had all flown Gaojiao-7.
There is a difference between the current recruits and the previous recruits.
The previous training model was academies-flight academies or training bases. The whole process took four years. After the students were in the army, they began to receive combat training, were able to fly aerobatic maneuvers, and even began to modify the type of aircraft they wanted to fly.
Therefore, former recruits usually need more than six months of training before they can truly develop combat effectiveness after leaving the army.
After the reform, the training model changed to academies-military. In other words, all the new training of the trainees is completed in the school, because after the reform, the school has its own teaching aviation brigade, and the trainees directly form combat effectiveness after they leave the army.
In other words, people like Li Hai actually have combat capabilities after joining the army, not to mention that they are also carefully selected elites who are qualified to join the Flying Shark training.
Xue Zhengrong's decision was not risky.
There is a consensus that the piloting model is difficult from low to high, and relatively easy from high to low. What's more, the J-8 is developed based on the J-7 and has many similarities, and the Gaojiao-7 used by Li Hai and others , Shanying, Seamount Eagle, Falcon and other training aircraft are all developed based on the J-7, and the J-7 is their ancestor.
Li Hai and Dang Weimin should be very familiar with the J-8F.
This is also true. After flying for more than ten minutes, Li Hai completely adapted to the characteristics of the J-8F and quickly summarized his experience - just fly it as a dual-engine J-7.
Based on this, Xue Zhengrong found the party's performance for the people puzzling.
Li Hai flew the plane along the runway and quickly turned around to observe the landing of the party. Xue Zhengrong was flying beside him until the landing gear of J-8F No. 81104 touched the ground steadily and began to slide, then Xue Zhengrong slightly pulled up the nose of the aircraft and quickly cleared the field.
"Turn three and four and land." The tower issued an order.
"Understand the hole three, turn four and land."
Li Hai continued to turn, making room for Xue Zhengrong.
Obviously, the tower commander was afraid that the recruit would have another problem, so he very cautiously used a four-turn method to direct the fighter planes to land.
After both fighters landed safely, the tower commander breathed a sigh of relief. The person serving as the tower commander today is an old pilot who has been grounded. He voluntarily applied to serve as the combat staff of the Forgotten Reef flying team. He is usually the tower commander.
No. 81104 J-8 taxied to the apron, and the maintenance staff rushed up immediately. He first went up the boarding ladder to let Dang Weimin get off, and then quickly inspected the fighter plane.
Dang Weimin's face was pale. After taking off his flight helmet, he found that his hair was soaked with sweat. Li Hai taxied back to a stop, and after getting off the plane, he strode this way.
"For the people." Li Hai looked at the party for the people with concern.
The Party and the People shook their heads and said nothing.
Patting Dang Weimin on the shoulder, Li Hai said, "Let's go back and rest first."
He had encountered special dangers in the air, and he understood the mood of the party for the people very well, so he put his arm around his shoulders and walked back. After Xue Zhengrong came down, he looked at the two departing figures from a distance, and stayed at the scene to inspect J-8F No. 81104 with the maintenance staff.
Li Hai accompanied the party to the aviation hospital for examination.
Although the airport has a small establishment, the aviation medical room is quite well-equipped, with three doctors and six nurses. The relevant equipment is very complete and is for external services. It can be seen that before the public services of Forgotten Reef are basically completed, many institutions must take into account multiple functions.
After a series of inspections, the director of the aviation medical office smiled and said, "No problem, go back and have a good rest and adjust."
Li Hai breathed a sigh of relief.
The party is for the people, but its lips are tightly pursed and it looks like it is in a state of confusion. Li Hai just thought he was frightened. After pulling him back to the dormitory, he poured warm water and handed it over and said, "I told you to cheer up. It's a big deal."
I picked up the water and took a sip, but it burned my mouth.
"Sorry, sorry, my fault." Li Hai quickly laughed.
Dang Weimin's expression finally changed, and he kicked Li Hai with squinting eyes.
Li Hai quickly found some cold water, added some water, and said, "It won't be hot anymore."
After the party and the people drank some water, Li Hai said, "It's really nothing. During the training, the instructor said that modern fighter planes are precision machinery, and some sporadic faults may never be eliminated, but they exist objectively. However, modern fighters Fighter planes are machines with a very low failure rate and will not break down easily. We have to deal with fighter planes for a long time, and it is obviously unavoidable to encounter some dangerous malfunctions. In this case, we don’t need to worry about a small setback. It’s nerve-wracking, isn’t it?”
"You don't understand." Dang Weimin lowered his eyebrows and shook his head.
Li Hai said, "Of course I understand. I am a person who has hit a bird during takeoff. Didn't the Shipboard Psychological Expert Committee say that our Lao Li's psychological quality is unstable? Let me tell you this, my psychological quality is better than most Everyone is good, and a little danger can't affect me at all. Your old party can't be worse than me, right?"
Dang Weimin raised his head and looked at Li Hai. He didn't know what he was thinking in his mind. He was in a daze. Finally he sighed and said, "Old Li, please leave me alone for a while."
"Okay, you rest first and have a good sleep. I'll call you when dinner is ready." Li Hai agreed, grabbed his camouflage hat and went out.
Dang Weimin sat on the bed and put his arms on his knees to support his upper body. He looked ahead unfocused and his eyes slowly turned red. With another long sigh, he lay down with his clothes on, not feeling sleepy at all.
Li Hai came to the tarmac. The maintenance staff was still inspecting the fighter plane. Xue Zhengrong, who had not even taken off his flight suit, also had oil stains on his hands. There was nothing wrong with the appearance of the aircraft, indicating that there was no collision and there were almost no birds at an altitude of 7,000 meters. The situation at that time was that the aircraft suddenly tilted to the left and fell over. The problem should be with the control system.
Li Hai followed Xue Zhengrong silently, inspecting each component one by one. Of course he couldn't see anything, but this was a rare learning opportunity. To fly a fighter plane well, you need to understand it comprehensively and deeply, so pilots say they are falling in love with the fighter plane.
When the sunset approached the horizon between the sea and the sky, the inspection work was completed.
The maintenance team leader summarized the results and reported to Xue Zhengrong, "Boss, no problem was found. The control surface is normal, the hydraulic system is normal, and the engine is running normally. There are no problems."
no problem?
Xue Zhengrong realized that there was a problem, maybe a big one.
