The strongest pilot ever

Chapter 236
236 The first carrier-based aircraft takes off and lands
Xiao Lien is still very rigorous. Although he and He Xiaoyao studied under the same person, they don't have the same style. He is more step-by-step.

He first took Chen Fei three times to take off, and then made three landings. During this process, he has been closely observing Chen Fei's state.

Of course, Fade Chen's performance was also recorded in good time by the camera in the cockpit, and the relevant images were directly sent back to the base, where they were interpreted by a group of experts and instructors.

Everyone sent the results of the interpretation and analysis to Xiao Lien by radio. Therefore, after three take-offs and landings, Xiao Lien basically had a basic grasp of Fade Chen's state. Fade Chen was really awesome. She was a little nervous when she "hit the wall" for the first time, but she took it calmly the rest of the time, without even moving her eyelids. Xiao Lien didn't say she met this kind of person, but she had never heard of it!
This is the first time on a carrier-based aircraft!

Therefore, he became more courageous. After that, he let go of the operating authority, and he directed Fade Chen to take off and land!
A total of three times.

Of course, he was very careful during this process, and he was ready to take over the operating authority at any time, and he did not let Fade Chen operate it by himself. All operations were done by him with passwords, and Fade Chen must strictly follow his passwords. For example, if he said to press the slope fifteen degrees to the left, then Fade Chen must press fifteen degrees to the left exactly. If he dared to go one degree more or one degree less, he would directly stop Fade Chen's operating authority.

After trying this three times, even if she was as cautious as Xiao Lien, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this Fade Chen is really not human!

Through the radio, he also heard the exclamation of the experts and teachers in the base. Everyone also had expressions of disbelief. The aircraft carrier has operated J-[-], and it has been operated for at least half a year!

What they didn't know was that, in fact, Fade Chen was indeed similar to that, because at this time his carrier-based aircraft piloting experience had reached the intermediate level, and he was really almost the same as that kind of carrier-based aircraft pilot!
Afterwards, after careful consideration, Xiao Lien decided to let Fade Chen come and fly alone once. Although he was sitting in the back seat, he would not intervene unless there was a safety accident in the fighter plane, otherwise he would not intervene. He decided Take the approach of his senior brother He Xiaoyao!
"Chen Fei, next you will do a takeoff and landing by yourself, is there any problem?" Xiao Lien asked in a calm tone as much as possible.

"Report to the chief instructor, I have no problem!" Fade Chen replied, his voice finally fluctuated a little. It was an expression of excitement, but confidence was hidden in the excitement.

Xiao Lien shook her head secretly, and thought to herself, who are these people? Why is it not at all like the pilots I taught before? The previous pilots were so nervous that their voices trembled when they heard that they had to operate alone, but Chen fly
Well, he is a genius pilot!
"Okay, then you have to operate completely independently!" Xiao Lien said.

"Okay!" Fade Chen replied.

Exhaling lightly, Fade Chen lowered his head, and made a detailed and serious inspection of the trainer plane. After the inspection, he reported: "Tower, hook two are ready, please slide out!"

The number of Chen Fei's trainer plane is 092!

"Can slide out!"

"understand!"

Fade Chen pushed the throttle lever slightly. When the engine speed reached 20.00%, he pushed the throttle valve to the idle position, then released the brake, turned the direction, and manipulated the trainer to slide out from the position of the simulated lifting platform and slide to the entrance of the main runway. !

At the entrance of the main runway, he stepped on the brakes and stopped the trainer.

He looked out through the glass cockpit, and the commander in the brightly colored vest gave him the command to spread the wings.

In order to save space, after the carrier-based aircraft lands on the ship, the wings must be folded and lowered to the hangar through the lift platform for storage. Therefore, the first thing to do when taking off is to open the wings.

"Control tower, I have spread the wings!" Fade Chen said into the radio.

"The wings are unfolded and locked, the left wing is good!" Fade Chen turned his head to look at the left wing, and at the same time checked the status of the aircraft through the multi-function display to make sure there was no problem before reporting.

"Right wing extended and locked, good right wing!"

"Flaps down!"

"Thirty degrees of flaps, horizontal wing deflection, slats extended, instruments normal, inspection completed, request to take off!"

In the quiet cockpit, there were only Fade Chen's monotonous passwords.

Xiao Lien, who was sitting in the back cabin, listened attentively, watched carefully, and from time to time scored the scoring list on the tactical tablet in his hand, nodding his head from time to time, with a satisfied expression on his face.

At this time, the voice from the control tower sounded: "Hook two, you can take off!"

Fade Chen turned his head to look at the command of the commander on the ground. After that, he operated according to the command of the commander, and directly pushed the throttle lever to the afterburner position.

boom--

The engine of the trainer plane roared, and the fighter plane shook violently.

At this time, Fade Chen was practicing ski jumping.

Catapult takeoff They haven't gotten there yet!
In front, the ski jump deck is raised high, 14 degrees.

Break through psychological pressure, grasp the board speed,

Grasp the direction of the front wheel, control the attitude and angle of attack of the aircraft...

Fade Chen silently recalled the operation essentials in his heart.

A moment later, the fighter jet rushed forward, and Fade Chen's head hit the headrest.

If it were another person, at this time, the eyeballs would be slightly protruding forward, and the vision would be temporarily blurred. The huge overload caused the pilot's face to appear slightly deformed, but Fade Chen's body was modified through the system. Yes, nothing at all!

He just stared at the airspeed indicator.

When the airspeed reached the critical value, he jerked the joystick and pulled the fighter up.

boom--

The trainer flew up with a roar.

Fade Chen turned his head and looked out the window.

Soon, he radioed: "Tower, I retracted the landing gear!"

"The landing gear is good!" The voice of the tower sounded.

In fact, Fade Chen had already looked at the landing gear indicator light, which showed that everything was normal.

"Tower, I have retracted the left flap!"

"Left flap good!"

"I retracted the right flap!"

"Right flap good!"

After flying around in the air, he drove the plane back and started to land!
The return of carrier-based aircraft to the aircraft carrier is divided into three stages: guidance, standby, and approach.

First of all, 200 nautical miles away from the aircraft carrier, the carrier-based aircraft will receive the radar signal from the aircraft carrier's air flight control center.One is friend-or-foe identification, and the other is navigation, which tells the pilot the position, direction, distance, and conditions of other carrier-based aircraft around the aircraft carrier.

Secondly, the pilot found the aircraft carrier, and at 20 nautical miles, the Aviation Command Center (CATCC) took over the control.The aircraft circled in the designated airspace, and the command center arranged the entry sequence according to the fuel and damage of each aircraft.

When it was the turn to enter, the actual landing procedure began.

The carrier-based aircraft circled counterclockwise over the aircraft carrier, lowered the ship hook, opened the speed brake, turned off the weapons and ordnance, and made various preparations.

At a distance of 3 nautical miles from the aircraft carrier, visually confirm the Fresnel (FLOLS) optical landing aid system.

The pilot maintains the attitude speed, and lands at a fixed glide angle under the instructions of the landing officer (LSO) and radar.Until the plane jerked and hooked the arresting wire, it stopped slowly and landed successfully.

Unlike land-based aircraft, carrier-based aircraft do not have a flat floating stage, but are photographed on the deck at a fixed glide angle, so it is also called "manually controlled fall", which is really frightening.

There are several key points in the landing process: entry point, landing point, engagement point and departure point.

The landing point is the intended landing point, and the aircraft can hook the arresting wire in this area to generate the engagement point.

In order to retain a certain amount of error tolerance, the landing point is set between the second and third arresting cables.Hooking 2 or 3 arresting cables is considered excellent, hooking the 2th arresting cable is a pass, hooking the 3st arresting cable means that you are flying too low and it is very dangerous.

During the landing process, the pilot has to operate hundreds of times frequently and is highly nervous.In order to reduce work intensity and improve safety and accuracy, navies of various countries have developed auxiliary landing systems and fully automatic control systems.For example, the "Precision Approach Landing System" (PALS) and the "Instrument Landing System" (ICLS) in the 80s.

The pilot can choose three methods of fully automatic, semi-automatic and manual landing.In the fully automatic landing, the control center takes over the landing of the aircraft. This method is still in the experiment, and has not been really used in practice due to the influence of the complex environment and system stability.

Everything was ready, and Fade Chen began to prepare for landing. Although it was on the land base, all their operational requirements followed those on the aircraft carrier.

The first thing, he used the radio to report the situation of his fighter plane to the control tower, mainly the fuel level, and then asked the control tower to give instructions to land.

"Tower, Gou Liang will report to you! 1000 fuel left!"

"Tick two, heading 090 and waiting for landing, altitude 5000, estimated landing time of 3 minutes."

Chen Fei waited quietly.

Three minutes later, the tower sent an order to land.

Fade Chen drove the fighter plane to enter according to the tower's requirements, and then made one and two turns around the ship.

The landing has begun!

look at the lights.

Alignment.

keep the angle
Fade Chen looked at the angle of attack.

Then he pressed the press head slightly.

Another look at the airspeed indicator!

At a slightly lower speed, push the throttle lever up slightly!

Align the deck.

Look at the lights, align, maintain the aircraft attitude, trim, pay attention to the angle of attack and speed, hit the deck at a fixed glide angle, and wait for the ship hook and arresting wire!

The fighter plane descended rapidly.

Lower the landing gear.

Put down the tail hook.

Adjust the attitude and fly to the top of the stern.

Aim the deck runway down quickly.

With a "bang", the tail hook was firmly hooked on the second arresting wire.

In an instant, under the action of the arresting cable system, the lightning-fast fighter plane slid for tens of meters and came to a steady stop.

Very successful first landing!

yeah--

In the control tower, the officers on duty who were in charge of directing the landing shook their fists together!

"awesome!"

"This kid——is really a genius!"

"It's amazing! It's amazing! It's really the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead, amazing!"

"Yeah, when we were training carrier-based aircraft, we were tortured to the point of death, but Fade Chen really can't imagine it!"
