Yang Luo and Ma Haijun were chatting, and after completing the preparations, the aircraft came up to report that the plane was ready, Ma Haijun patted Yang Luo on the shoulder and said, "Yang Luo, don't say anything else, return safely." ”

"Don't worry, it's just a solo flight, it's a little meaning." Yang Luo smiled casually, snatched the handover documents from Ma Haijun's hand, and walked to the 222 J-10S to carry out inspections.

After going around the fuselage, carefully checking to confirm that there was no problem, Yang Luo signed, climbed the boarding ladder, entered the front cockpit, put on the TK-10C flight helmet, and began to prepare for takeoff.

The cockpit glass slowly closed, the main power switch was turned on, the avionics system was activated by power, and Yang Luo conducted an instrument check to confirm that it was correct and ready to take off.

The flag gave a hint that it was allowed to slide out, and Yang Luo pushed the throttle valve up, and controlled the 222 J-10S, which had not flown a few times, to slowly slide out of the No. 1 hangar.

According to the standard procedure, cross the apron, tow lane, brake and stop on runway 1, obtain meteorological parameters and take-off permit.

Loosening the brakes and pushing the throttle valve, the 222 J-10S roared and ran on the runway, accelerated to take off, and plunged headlong into the endless snowflake sky ahead.

The whole take-off process is standard and perfect, explaining what is called perfect and what is called a standard textbook take-off.

"Call the tower, 222 reaches the predetermined altitude, request a solo mission, over." Climbing to a height of two thousand meters, Yang Luo called through the radio communication system.

"You can perform solo missions, pay attention to the flight attitude, over." On the tower, Hu Zhongming responded, holding military optical glasses, holding his head high, observing the 222 J-10S in the air.

"222 understood, over." Yang Luo agreed, then kicked the left rudder and began to do five basic movements.

Every pilot can be familiar with the basic movements, and Yang Luo is no longer able to do it, and he can complete it with his eyes closed.

Flying is not easy, but it is not as difficult as imagined, the main thing is the control of two rods (throttle, joystick) and two rudders (left and right rudders).

Some people can play tricks with the same type of fighter, and some people can only fly decently for the rest of their lives, and there is only one factor - people are different.

Yang Luo is one of those people who can play tricks.

After completing the basic action very easily, Yang Luo pulled the rod to push the throttle valve, the nose quickly raised up, and after climbing at a maximum elevation angle of 1,000 meters, the pressure rod dived, which is a typical high and leisurely maneuver.

Later, Yang Luo did a Yinmaiman maneuver and a grass-flower-type Jin bucket maneuver, both of which were maneuvering subjects in the solo mission.

All other subject tasks have been completed, and only the last Herbst maneuver remains.

Yang Luo took a deep breath, stared at the gray clouds high in the sky, pushed the throttle valve, and climbed with the lever.

"Boom!"

The roar of the AL-31FN aero engine became louder and louder, roaring recklessly, providing the J-10S with the power it needed to climb and gain altitude at breakneck speed.

When the altitude rose to 5,000 meters, Yang Luo changed to level flight and continued to push the throttle valve to accelerate and increase the speed lost due to climbing.

Soon, the speed of the J-10S will reach 700 kilometers per hour, Yang Luo did not hesitate to pull the lever, and the nose of the aircraft suddenly lifted into the maximum elevation angle.

With the increase in the angle of attack of the fuselage, the fuselage of the J-10S plays the role of a speed brake, and the speed is sharply reduced, and it is on the verge of stalling.

With many practical experiences, Yang Luo is proficient in operation, controlling the fighter to rotate around the velocity vector, and has been rotating along the direction of the track.

Fluttering snowflakes in the air, in the cockpit Yang Luo's perspective, the surrounding scenery is rotating and changing.

Yang Luo's face was calm, calmly responded, when the J-10S screwed to a certain angle, instantly loosened the throttle valve, under the combined action of vector thrust and canard wings, the aircraft rolled the left rod while doing a backflip, and then pressed the lever, and the nose quickly pointed downward.

In an instant, the direction of the nose and the initial flight track reversed, opposite to the initial direction, and a 180-degree U-turn was completed.

Yang Luo pushed the throttle valve up and opened the afterburner device.

"Boom!"

As the jet fuel enters the afterburner of the AL-31FN aero engine, the roar becomes louder and louder, and the tail sprays orange-red high-temperature tail flames, melting the crystal white snowflakes on the tail, leaving a long white trail cloud.

In an instant, the J-10S swooped down, and the fighter on the verge of stalling became faster and faster, and soon got out of the stall, returned to normal flight speed, and then changed out and flew forward at high speed.

Herbst maneuver, done.

The movements are smooth and natural, extremely fast, just like an ancient swordsman, stopping, turning, and drawing the sword, all in one go, without the slightest fancy movement.

Perfect.

By the end of the whole process, the J-10S had barely lost much speed and energy, and the turning radius was only 175 of the normal turning radius.

All solo missions were completed, and Yang Luo called through radio communication, "Tower, 222 solo mission has been executed, request to return to landing, complete." ”

"You can go back." A smile appeared on the corner of Hu Zhongming's mouth, and he said happily, "Yang Luo, congratulations on your successful solo flight." ”

As Hu Zhongming spoke, a tidal wave of applause rang out on the tower, which was transmitted to Yang Luo's ears through the radio.

"Thank you for the applause, 222 is returning, over."

Yang Luo had a smile on his face, he was very satisfied with this solo flight, which was perfect, and he pedaled the left rudder to adjust the course and return to Dongling Station.

However, the J-10S did not react at all and continued to move steadily towards its current course.

What's going on?

Is it too little?

No, I've been using this strength all the time.

Yang Luo was puzzled, and a lot of greetings came to mind.

With a little more force, Yang Luo kicked the left rudder again, and the J-10S was still flying forward, still without response.

"My luck, is this the rumored curse of flying solo?" Yang Luo's face changed, and he realized that something was wrong, and it must be that the J-10S was out of order.

Thinking about my own experience, it seems to fit the word curse.

In addition, this time there were a total of four solo flights, and only the first time the first six solo flights were safe.

The second L-15 Falcon flew solo, and when landing, it suddenly encountered a strong crosswind, and the fighter almost rolled over, and the final result was that it rushed out of the runway, and all the aviation tires were scrapped.

The third time the J-7G flew solo, it encountered a sudden rainstorm, and the aviation fuel that was enough to land was not enough, and it was forced to land.

And this time it's the fourth time, and it's broken down again.

It seems that there really is an invisible magic that dominates all this.

"Call the tower, 222 mechanical failure, left rudder failure, over." Yang Luo contacted the tower as soon as possible and reported the current situation to the tower.

Yang Luo's words echoed in the tower through the loudspeaker, and everyone was stunned, why is this Yang Luo so uneasy, there are always problems.

"222, return to the right side of the sted, over." Hu Zhongming was stunned for a moment, then immediately came back to his senses and gave instructions, put down the intercom, and said angrily, "What is the maintenance for?" The 222 J-10S stabbed me in a few days after flying, how will I carry out training work in the future? ”

Naturally, no one answered Hu Zhongming's words.
