Go back to the past and be a schoolboy

The morning star in the sky is still shining, and the group of people on the ground has started a new work arrangement.

"Dean, if it weren't for your help, those of us would not even be able to pass the first step, let alone the team arrangement and production planning." Wang Zhu held a bowl of hot soup, Slightly sighed.

"Yu Peng's words are not exaggerated at all. He and Xiaofeng are fine. They just need to concentrate on overcoming technical difficulties. Unlike me, who is both the person in charge of administration and the person in charge of technology, I have to take care of everything. It’s not easy to manage.” Bayuzao took a sip of the hot soup and expressed emotion.

Cheng Nuo laughed and said, "Why, it's time for me to remember bitterness and sweetness."

"No, no, that's not what we mean." Wang Zhu put down the bowl, and hurried out to explain: "Although I personally didn't participate in the specific arrangement of these foods, I know that everything is difficult at the beginning, and many people don't even get the stepping stones right. , fell before the first step."

Bayuzao nodded with a smile: "The first thing that bears the brunt is that there are no workers. Even the most common fitters, carpenters, and painters are in short supply. Fortunately, the director brought a large number of boatmen, and they were able to work normally after training."

Cheng Nuo was not fascinated by these flattery, and said with a half-smile, "If I remember correctly, I seem to have told me something similar. Today, I brought up the old thing again. Tell me, what do you like about me?"

Ba and Wang looked at each other, and then burst out laughing, making Cheng Nuo mutter in his heart, wondering what kind of medicine the other party was selling in his gourd.

"The dean is like this. Since we choose to set up an aviation school in Beijing, we can't bring all the original workers, which will greatly affect the design and manufacturing of the aircraft. When I was worried, I heard that you and the workers from Changxindian The masters are very familiar, can we make a breakthrough in this area?" Wang Zhu laughed.

"It's easy to talk about anything else. I think this matter is really a bit of a mystery." After deliberately giving a negative answer, after capturing the frustration of the two, Cheng Nuo said with a smile: "But I have prepared another worker for you. They were all carefully selected from the group of victims through our disaster relief.”

Wang Zhu excitedly said: "Okay, although there are not many employees who are willing to travel with us, we can definitely train a group of qualified aircraft talents again by adhering to the method of bringing the old with the new."

Bayuzao was a little calmer: "That is to say, we have changed to a new place, and we have to start from scratch again?"

Cheng Nuo smiled and said, "Of course not. The specific positions have already been arranged for you, and it's up to you to follow up with high-level training."

In this way, while chatting about the current situation, they arranged for the technically capable victims.

When the warm soup cools down, the matter will be discussed in various ways.

"How about it, Yunhua will go back to the station later, this time I will go with you to see your arrangements."

Wang Zhu hesitated: "The number of people is not too large at the moment, and most of them are arranged to build straw huts outside the city. There is really no specific arrangement."

Bayuzao held the opposite opinion: "It's better to have a straw shed, and we didn't live in it together, but I explained the basic principles and crafts of the aircraft to the workers hand in hand, saving money and worry. get more."

After saying this, he decisively led Cheng Nuo and others to visit the base.

And after Cheng Nuo experienced it for a while, he understood the purity of Bayuzao and others' pursuit of the blue sky dream.

Calling everyone together, Ba Yuzao introduced Cheng Nuo to everyone, and he habitually said: "Admonish everyone, instead of taking advantage of tricks and showing off your cleverness, you should be careful and steady, because human life is in my hands, it's not fun..."

Seeing the eloquent Bayuzao, Cheng Nuo was a little puzzled for a moment: "Is Yunhua always like this?"

Wang Zhu laughed and said, "If it was a meeting organized by Yunhua, then this sentence must be his first sentence. But the effect, in my opinion, is still very good. Everyone mastered the knowledge and understanding of airplanes very quickly. , it won’t take long to be able to independently take charge of a small section.”

Cheng Nuo nodded: "Alright, seeing that everyone is working together in one direction, I feel more at ease.

In time, after the scale of our aviation school is formed, it will inevitably develop from point to surface, from surface to body, and from bottom to top. Therefore, the demand for aviation talents will only increase in the future. "

Leading Cheng Nuo to a quiet place, Wang Zhu asked suspiciously, "Besides the aviation school, does the dean have any other arrangements?"

Cheng Nuo nodded and said earnestly, "Organizations such as flight teams, air stations, observatories, meteorological stations, repair factories, and equipment warehouses are all necessary. If conditions permit, it is not impossible to establish an aviation committee."

Wang Zhu's eyes widened: "Is it used to coordinate and manage these related organizations?"

"It's not all." Cheng Nuo organized his words a little bit, and explained: "It is undeniable that the aviation school is only temporary, and we will definitely develop in the direction of the Air Force in the future. However, there are no rules and regulations that apply to us, and everything is modeled after the Army's rules and regulations. , there are several separate regulations only in terms of technology.

But don't forget that the Air Force has its own unique characteristics. It strives to catch up and develop as much as possible in terms of education and flight technology.

It is not enough to say that saving the country, serving the system, personnel, managers, health care, and even daily administrative documents, etc., all have extremely detailed regulations. "

On the other side, Bayuzao, who had finished dealing with the workers, was finally free, listened to a few words and began to say: "The aviation industry is very important to national defense. All countries in the world are trying their best to expand and develop day by day. If they don't catch up and develop as much as possible, it is not enough to save the country. "

This is fully demonstrated in Bayuzao. For example, he designed and manufactured China's first seaplane "Type A No. [-]" primary trainer aircraft. But in essence, it is also moving closer to the direction of national defense.

It has 100 horsepower, a maximum speed of 126 kilometers per hour, can sail for 3 hours, and mounts 4 bombs. It is mainly used for training, can perform patrol missions, and can also conduct small-scale bombing when necessary.

Finding a high place, Cheng Nuo stood on the steps and pinched his waist: "Of course, if you always build a car behind closed doors, you can't make a cutting-edge aircraft. You still need to introduce a lot of aviation status, aviation policies and aviation education in developed countries in Europe and America. When we understand the situation, let everyone know the gap.”

In fact, with regard to the conversion between military and civilian use, in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, European countries have already done very well.

For example, Dai Ying, in 1933, the British Ministry of Aviation had about [-] aircraft, and there were many aircraft manufacturing factories all over the country. The private ones were all subsidized by the government. When necessary, they could be manufactured in accordance with the order of the government and used by the government. Aviation talents also abound.

France is a country with a world-renowned army. The number of aircraft is the largest among all countries. It is prepared by the people and is as common as cars in the Republic of China.

This point was introduced in great detail in Jiang Guangtou's "National and Aviation" article. He believed that France ranked first in the world's air forces, the United States ranked second, and the United Kingdom ranked third.
Mussolini in Italy also recognized this point. After taking power, he personally served as the director of aviation. He strongly advocated the development of the aviation industry, and quite advanced. , but Germany's machinery, superior to other countries have opportunities, will be able to see its special performance.

"Dean, do you have other plans?" Wang Zhu asked.

"Naturally." Cheng Nuo looked into the distance with a smile on his face: "For example, the pilots participated in the formation of the Air Force's radar unit, heavy bombing unit, aerial photographic reconnaissance unit, etc. Are these exciting and surprising enough?"

Wang Assistant nodded his head, "Enough, it's really enough."

For example, the current pilots are exactly what Cheng Nuo is currently working on and working hard for, and the establishment of the aviation school is also for this purpose.

The air force radar unit was Cheng Nuo's next development direction.

"Through communicating with Mr. Tesla, we have learned that radio technology has begun to be used in the military, and the combat command of the army has also been further improved technically.

With the improvement of aircraft speed and endurance, the capture of air intelligence by optical equipment can no longer meet the requirements of modern warfare. Therefore, during World War II, the British army began to use radar to capture radio waves to obtain air intelligence. "

In this regard, the British army actually did a very good job. After suffering the losses of World War I, they began to use radar to capture radio waves to obtain air intelligence in World War II.Because of the prominent role of radar technology in modern warfare, the National Government felt the lack of such talents long before the Anti-Japanese War.

After negotiation between the UK and the US, the UK agreed to train 25 radar repair personnel for China.After a strict examination by the national government, 21 people were admitted to the UK to study radar technology, but the good times didn't last long.

In the 40s, the national government established China's first radar unit on the basis of receiving radar equipment after Japan's surrender and some radar equipment donated by the United States.

As for the strategic-level heavy bombers, there is nothing to talk about, but it is just to speed up the integration of war.

But in the aerial photo reconnaissance unit, it was an air force unit that Western developed countries attached great importance to earlier. It is a pity that only a few people realize this.

In this way, under Cheng Nuo's arrangement, the importance of running an aviation school and building aircraft became more prominent.

In order to speed up the progress and absorb the labor force, Cheng Nuo and others worked together to select [-] to [-] skilled workers such as mechanics, fitters, carpenters and painters from the crowd.

These skilled workers all have certain shipbuilding knowledge and experience, and have a certain foundation for mechanical common sense, tool use and mechanical drawing.

In order to enable them to have an overall understanding and understanding of aircraft manufacturing, Bayuzao and others gave lectures to the workers, explaining concise aircraft principles, engine principles and airframe structure, so that the workers can understand the accuracy of aircraft manufacturing and learn to use the airframe The strength needs to choose the appropriate material.

For a small number of workers with good foundation, they also receive training on engine calibration, loading and unloading, test run, troubleshooting, and the use of various instruments and meters.All these skills are cultivated by learning and doing so as to reach a very proficient level.

Of course, there are also many difficulties in the manufacturing process of aircraft: one is that aero-engines cannot be manufactured, and they can only be purchased from abroad.
The second is that the equipment is backward, the degree of mechanization is low, and most of the processes are done by hand, so the productivity is low.

Of course, in addition to this, the warlords' melee, frequent wars, and political instability have resulted in the lack of a stable development environment for my country's modern aviation industry.From 1912 to 1928, there were more than 140 wars, big or small.

Among the frequent wars, Japan's war of aggression hit China's industrialization the hardest. After the "September 30th" Incident, Japan occupied the Northeast, causing China to lose 71% of its coal, 28% of its iron, 47% of its electricity and [-]% of its cement.

In addition, the government of the Republic of China did not have a unified plan for the aviation industry. The government invested in setting up factories scattered, and each factory did not have division of labor and cooperation, and each factory did not have a scientific plan for manufacturing aircraft. They either imitated American aircraft, Soviet aircraft, or French aircraft.

To self-designed aircraft, there is no further improvement and improvement.Various aircraft manufacturers produce various types of aircraft, and there is no universal standard across the country.In this way, the national aviation industry is in a state of disunity, unable to form a joint force, and the functions of aviation factories will be greatly reduced.

After stacking a paper airplane, Cheng Nuo wanted to try a new folding method, but because of an unstable center of gravity, he accidentally fell to the ground.

Picking up the plane again, he said thoughtfully: "Although running an aviation school and building planes are two different things, I still suggest that you cooperate during the simultaneous development."

Bayuzao asked suspiciously, "I don't know what aspects you are referring to, sir?"

Cheng Nuo said with a smile: "Of course it is the training of test pilots. You must understand that the serious shortage of test pilots will also restrict the improvement of aircraft performance and the improvement of aircraft manufacturing level."

The advent of any new type of aircraft, aircraft test flight is an indispensable part.The test flight is the experimental flight of the aircraft before it is officially used to check the equipment of the aircraft and test the performance of the aircraft.

The development and production of a new type of aircraft must go through a process of demonstration-design-manufacture-test flight-finalization-mass production-delivery.Through the test flight, the design flaws of the aircraft are exposed to the greatest extent, providing a basis for the design department to improve the performance of the aircraft, and avoid future tragedies.

Of course, through the test flight, the potential of the aircraft can be released, so that it can be selected by the shooting department.

Another important problem in my country's aeronautical engineering is that it is difficult to find aircraft test pilots, and there is a serious shortage of excellent test pilots.Back then, the Type A and Type A II aircraft manufactured by Bayuzao and Wang Zhu encountered various difficulties in finding people to test them.

And this is also an important reason why Ba and Wang are so enthusiastic.
