The pilots of the squadron warmly welcomed Chen Fei.
However, Chen Fei only spoke a few words briefly and did not dare to speak as long as he did in other troops.
The soldiers in the flying squadron had similar temperaments to Wu Bin. They didn't like mothers-in-law, and they especially hated the empty and meaningless speeches of political officials. Therefore, Chen Fei only spoke a few words briefly, fearing to cause resentment.
"Wu Bin, shall we start?" After Chen Fei finished speaking, he turned to the squadron leader of the helicopter squadron and said.
"Yes!" Wu Bin replied, then picked up the microphone on the command platform and gave a liftoff command to a pilot.
Chen Fei came to see the helicopter squadron's training today. Didn't he ask the helicopter squadron to dare to break through yesterday? Today he will come to see, inspect and encourage the helicopter squadron in person. Of course, in the end, he will also give some to the helicopter squadron.
Welfare.
"Instructor, today we are conducting tactical airspace training." Wu Bin said while staring at Chen Fei closely, watching the changes in Chen Fei's eyes.
Tactical airspace training?
Chen Fei was startled, but he quickly nodded and suddenly understood.
Tactical airspace training includes 7 tactical actions such as jumps, dives, large-slope circling, and snake maneuvers. These actions are all actions that helicopters need to use in the air when performing assault missions and facing enemy situations.
According to Chen Fei's instructions yesterday, in today's tactical airspace course, every tactical action is required to reach the performance limit of the helicopter as much as possible.
Of course, this is not easy. On the one hand, it requires pilots to have extremely high flying skills. On the other hand, it also places high demands on the pilot's physical strength and energy.
For example, when a helicopter is circling on a large slope, the helicopter must tilt at an angle of more than 45 degrees.
Under normal circumstances, the human body load is only 1 G, but when circling on a large slope, the load quickly increases to 2 to 3 times.
The physical fitness of helicopter pilots is slightly worse than that of fighter pilots. Fighter pilots can withstand seven or eight G loads, but helicopter pilots find it very difficult to bear three G loads.
The load experience that is closer to what people experience in life is the roller coaster in the amusement park, whose instantaneous load can reach up to 4 G.
During large-slope circling training, the pilot's body must continuously bear a load of 2 to 3 G. This state can easily cause physiological reactions such as dizziness and muscle tension.
Unlike riding a roller coaster in a blink of an eye, helicopter pilots can't just circle up and down a steep slope once or twice. Whether in training or in actual combat, this needs to be done frequently and lasts for a long time.
In addition to the load far exceeding normal conditions, there is another factor affecting the pilot's operation when circling on a steep slope.
When circling on a steep slope, the helicopter is only 20 meters above the ground.
In a battlefield environment, in order to avoid enemy radar detection or cross complex terrain, helicopters often adopt tactical maneuvers of circling at ultra-low altitudes and on steep slopes.
Ultra-low altitude refers to a height below 100 meters above the ground. According to Chen Fei's requirements, the helicopter must be controlled to complete the maneuver at a height of 20 meters above the ground when circling at a large slope.
For pilots who fly helicopters in high-speed circles, flying at a height of 20 meters is undoubtedly extremely challenging. Therefore, in usual training, even the third squadron did not meet the standard mentioned by Chen Fei.
In daily flight training, it is not difficult to control the height of the helicopter. However, when circling on a large slope, the slope is required to reach 50 degrees, which is close to the limit of the helicopter. At such a slope, once the flight attitude is not controlled well, the height of the helicopter will be easily reduced.
It is easy to imagine the psychological pressure caused by the rapid descent of the pilot.
For other squadrons, when circling at a steep slope, the slope is fifty degrees and the height is twenty meters. Any one of them can be achieved. If you can achieve any one of them, you are considered awesome. But Chen Fei requires the pilots of the third squadron to do both.
, which is a bit difficult.
Therefore, Chen Fei came to take charge in person today.
Wu Bin gave an order, and a pilot flew the helicopter into the sky and started training according to the new requirements.
The pilot had tried his best to comply with the new requirements, but due to the huge psychological pressure, he always involuntarily raised the helicopter's flying altitude or reduced the circling slope during the flight. This happened for several consecutive trainings.
In other words, either he only met the slope requirements, or he only met the height requirements, and he was unable to meet both standards.
When Wu Bin saw it, he became anxious. The instructor came to inspect it in person today, but his men behaved like this, which made him very embarrassed. So he picked up the microphone and shouted: "Yang Fei, your slope...
...Your slope is not enough!”
But no matter how Wu Bin yelled and scolded, the other party could not meet Chen Fei's requirements.
"Damn it! This idiot!" Wu Bin yelled angrily.
This guy's bad temper was immediately apparent.
"Wu Bin, don't worry. Do you think this is feasible? Tell everyone. During the flight, we ask everyone to pay more attention outside the cabin and stop staring at the instrument panel."
"Pay more attention outside the cabin?" Wu Bin was startled. After recovering, he quickly picked up the microphone and started giving instructions.
This time, as the helicopter entered a hovering state, Yang Fei visually judged that the altitude of the aircraft was already very low, probably close to 20 meters, so he maintained the flying attitude.
At this time, Wu Bin said through the microphone: "Look at the instruments in your cockpit. Your height is still 30 meters above the ground."
"clear."
The pilot carefully maneuvered the aircraft to further descend the altitude.
At different altitudes, pilots will have different visual perceptions of the ground. During driving, if they can observe the ground at any time and accurately judge the altitude of the aircraft based on their visual perceptions, the pilots can complete corresponding operations as soon as the situation changes to ensure that
Flight altitude and attitude stability.
After several consecutive trainings, the pilot's judgment on the height of the helicopter became more and more accurate, and the tactical maneuvers of circling on large slopes also reached the perfect standard.
"Instructor, you still have experience." Seeing this, Wu Bin couldn't help but admire him.
Chen Fei smiled and said nothing. He said in his heart that it was natural. Master-level flying skills must be extraordinary.
Watching his pilots doing training one after another, Wu Bin felt itchy and turned to Chen Fei: "Instructor, I also want to go up and fly for a while. Can you follow me up and help me check it yourself?"
"Check?" Chen Fei was startled.
"Yes, instructor, you are watching me operate and checking for me personally. I want to challenge a higher level of difficulty!" Wu Bin said with a smile.
But Chen Fei understood that this kid was a bit too minded, but after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go up and help you take a look!"
After a while, an armed transport helicopter took off into the sky.
I have to admit that Wu Bin's flying skills are really very good. Most of the subjects can meet Chen Fei's requirements, and only a few need Chen Fei's guidance.
"Instructor, I want to try the Weisman reverse next." Wu Bin turned his head and looked at Chen Fei and said.
"good!"
Wu Bin's previous flight maneuvers went very smoothly, but when the helicopter reached the top and the speed approached 0, which was when the risk of the "Lai Weisman" flight was greatest, something went wrong.
At this time, Wu Bin had to operate the helicopter to complete the inversion as soon as possible. However, at this moment, Wu Bin did not know what happened and was not prepared for the inversion of the helicopter.
At this time, if the helicopter cannot reverse in time, it will face the special situation of "tail rush" with its tail facing down and its altitude falling. Once this happens, the helicopter is likely to lose control.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Chen Fei grabbed the joystick and reacted quickly, and the helicopter reversed steadily.
"Wu Bin, what's the matter with you?" Chen Fei's face was serious, as gloomy as if it was about to drip.
"Instructor, I..." Wu Bin broke into a cold sweat and was trembling a little when he spoke.
The Weisman inversion is a first-level dangerous maneuver. Due to safety concerns, most pilots will invert too early and the turning radius is too large. Such an action is obviously not accurate.
In fact, due to the difficulty and high risk of jumping and reversing, there are not many pilots in the world who can accurately complete this action.
Therefore, there are no requirements for assessment scores in the jump and inversion training of the Third Squadron. There is no hard and fast rule that every pilot must do this action and what standards must be met.
But Wu Bin has put forward very high demands on himself. Just now, Chen Fei gave him a great shock, so he has higher demands on himself. But to achieve this goal, he must ensure that the plane jumps to the highest point.
When the speed is close to 0, quickly make a reversal action, and the optimal reversal time is only 1 second.
In the training just now, Wu Bin misjudged the change in the speed of the aircraft and missed this 1 second, which put himself at huge risk. Of course, this kid also had some small ideas.
After a while, Chen Fei also calmed down, and his eyes softened. He knew that he should not criticize Wu Bin harshly. Weisman's inversion was a child's play for him, but he was a master of flying skills. For Wu Bin like this
For a pilot, it is already very good to be able to do what he did before, and he should not be criticized harshly. As for Wu Bin's little thoughts... would an adult still care about the little kid's little calculations?
Therefore, his whole person suddenly softened: "Wu Bin, come to the core of Weisman's inversion, which is to judge when the speed of the aircraft is close to zero. My experience is that you can judge from three aspects."
Chen Fei said softly.
Wu Bin listened intently. The more he listened, the more he admired Chen Fei. The more he listened, the more he felt that Chen Fei's level was really too high. He didn't know how many levels higher than he was.
So after he was personally instructed by Chen Fei, his flying skills actually increased at a speed visible to the naked eye. Originally, his level was higher than that of the average team member, but now, he even makes his team members
Too late to flatter a horse.
"Holy shit, how come Captain Wu's flying level is so high?"
"Isn't the instructor too awesome?"
"Looking at the instructor's level, I'm afraid no one in our military region can compare with him!"
The pilots of the helicopter squadron were chattering.
Everyone's focus was on the sky, and no one noticed that Yuan Lang was actually behind them.
He originally wanted to reconcile the tense relationship between Chen Fei and the Third Squadron today, but who knew that as soon as he arrived, he heard soldiers from the Third Squadron admiring Chen Fei and praising him non-stop, and the most important thing was that
, he also heard about something. At this time, Chen Fei and Wu Bin were flying in the sky together, and Chen Fei helped to deal with the special situation just now.
"Chen Fei, this guy can also fly a helicopter?"
Yuan Lang was shocked!
"Listen to what these guys are saying, Chen Fei's flying skills are better than Wu Bin? Wu Bin is the top flying soldier of the Army Aviation Brigade!"
