Great Power Fighting Falcon

The rain-washed sky was exceptionally clear. Six old-fashioned aircraft formed a dense formation and repeatedly performed difficult aerobatic flights at low altitudes, adding color to the quiet sky. Those old-fashioned airplanes also have many beautiful patterns and luminous light strips on them, making them look even more dazzling and colorful.

Don’t think that veteran students will become unfamiliar with their movements after they haven’t been exposed to Junior High School for a long time. In fact, it’s just like no matter how well you learn in college, you will forget what you learned in high school or even junior high school, but it is basically difficult for you to forget. I learned arithmetic in primary school.

Just like writing, if you dare to show what you write to others, you at least know the six elements of composition, and the basic skills are definitely there.

Whether it is pilots such as Captain Gao who have been transferred from the military to civilians, or current aces such as Li Zhan and Chen Fei, they will never forget the most basic control methods of Novice 6, and the stunts they have to use are every Every combat-ready pilot must learn basic flying maneuvers.

Just like flying blind, any pilot must have the control to fly under irrelevant conditions.

So after flying twice, the temporary six-plane aerobatic team's cooperation became more and more tacit and mature. The overall stunts were performed better and better, and everyone quickly felt comfortable.

If the Chujiao 6 cruises at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour at an altitude of one thousand meters, it can continue to fly for three and a half hours. This aircraft's ability to stay in the air is not weak. Li Zhan and others were all ready to take off with full fuel, so they simply asked the district management center to extend the joint training time to two hours. In any case, they would have enough room to return.

Using these two hours, Li Zhan and others practiced together while fine-tuning the performance content in order to achieve the best possible results. The theme of the Flying Spring Festival Gala is the air show, and they are responsible for the highlight, so it is best to make it perfect.

While Li Zhan was reliving his old dream in the No. 6, in a separate room in the maintenance hangar, the work of Zhang Chongming's technical analysis team reached a critical stage. What they are responsible for is to analyze the data obtained from the actual test flight of the J-16, and report the analysis results to the aviation department to provide technical basis for the aviation department to make relevant decisions about the J-16 aircraft.

The task was very important, so even though they knew they were going to attend the flight Spring Festival Gala in the evening, the comrades in the technical analysis team did not waver and still concentrated on analyzing the relevant data of this actual test flight. The responsible department of the flight crew is on duty 24 hours a day to receive their analysis results at any time. In addition, the J-16 No. 1616 encountered many unexpected dangers this time, and the crew carried out many unplanned test flights. The flight crew It has attracted attention, so the mood of waiting for their analysis results should be relatively urgent.

The area Gan Tingting is responsible for is relatively important, because she is interacting with the front cabin pilot Li Zhan. As important as Li Zhan's right to speak in actual test flights is, the work she is responsible for is important, and there is no room for mistakes.

In short, the results of the actual combat test flight are not only related to the verification and exploration of the fighter's performance, but also related to the tactical application when using the fighter. The latter is the most important.

Li Zhan discovered that there were some misunderstandings in the use of Su-30MKK by the troops. He also expressed his opinions to his superiors. However, empty talk is obviously not enough and must be supported by practice.

So from this aspect, Gan Tingting's analysis is also crucial to Li Zhan.

Conducting test flights is by no means just about flying the aircraft well. As the test flight troops often say: an excellent test pilot is also an excellent technical engineer. There are many examples of test pilots in turn guiding manufacturers to improve aircraft. There have even been examples of maintenance and support manuals compiled by veteran mechanical sergeants replacing the manufacturer's manuals.

How a weapon is, especially how it performs against an opponent's similar weapons, the person who uses it has the most say. For example, what is the strength of this fighter when it competes with mature third-generation aircraft such as the F-16 and Mirage-2000, the world's main force.

Superiors need quantitative data when making some considerations and decisions.

This is the significance of the actual flight test and the task of the flight test technical analysis team.

Therefore, when Gan Tingting finished the last step of calculation and saw that the conclusion was very different from the manufacturer's prediction, she subconsciously stood up and raised her hand to report: "Director!"

Zhang Chongming was stunned and walked over quickly without asking any questions. He took the data and looked at it. His face suddenly changed slightly and he asked in a deep voice, "How many calculations have been done?"

"Thirteen times, I calculated five times by hand, and the rest were done by the center's supercomputer, and the results are consistent." Gan Tingting replied in a low voice.

With a slight nod, Zhang Chongming signaled Gan Tingting to continue working, then walked back to the room with the conclusion report, picked up the dedicated phone line and called the relevant departments of the aviation department directly to report.

"Yes, Chief. I have calculated it repeatedly and checked the data repeatedly. Yes, this is the final result calculated based on the data currently available. Yes, I understand."

After Zhang Chongming reported in a deep voice, he turned around and said to Gan Tingting, "Xiao Gan, please go and ask Team Leader Li to come over!"

"Director, he seems to be on a flight to do joint training for the evening party." Gan Tingting quickly stood up and reported.

Zhang Chongming waved his hand and said, "Ask him to come back quickly and inform Chief of Staff Tang."

"Yes!" Gan Tingting, the only one who had temporarily completed the stage of the task, acted as a messenger and hurriedly went.

Over the southern suburbs, Li Zhan was preparing to conduct the last hour of joint training with everyone. The district management center called him: "Big Bird 1, there is an emergency. Please return immediately. The other aircraft will continue to train together. Over."

Li Zhan was surprised and said, "Big Bird 1 has received it and will return immediately. It's over!"

I had many questions in my mind, but I had to execute the instructions first. Without any hesitation, he immediately left the formation and returned.

He originally thought that he would have to hover a little and wait for the approach platform to arrange a gap for him to land, but he directly received the order to land immediately, and he clearly saw at least five passenger planes circling and waiting over the airport. This will not be done unless it is a very urgent situation, because doing so would mean that more than a dozen normal flights would be affected.

Anyone who has hiked knows that if the person at the front of the line suddenly walks a few steps faster, the people at the back basically have to run to keep up. The longer the line, the more obvious this lag becomes. If the current scheduled flight time is delayed by five minutes, it is very likely that the evening flight will be delayed by one or two hours.

Li Zhan couldn't think of the emergency that required him to return to the ground immediately.

Is there an emergency live fire mission?

The J-16 No. 1616 couldn't do this job either, the plane was damaged.

He landed neatly, and there was already a guidance vehicle waiting, which quickly guided him directly back to the maintenance hangar. He crossed several taxiways on the way, and all the dozen or so flights on the ground stopped to give way.

Li Zhan parked the plane and jumped off the wing. Gan Tingting was already waiting. After saying a few words, she took Li Zhan to the analysis room in the maintenance hangar.
