Chen Ming looked at a timid-looking little girl who appeared next to him at some point, and agreed to her request with a smile.

I don't know if it's because the little girl is like this, or because of the difference in military rank between the two.

It's decent to take pictures, and there is no bad thing that Chen Ming is worried about and needs to pose some shame by himself.

After finishing his work, Chen Ming returned to the flight control room to prepare for takeoff.

Carrier-based aircraft takeoff and landing is now a small daily subject for pilots on ships. The take-off and landing were smooth, as for how the soldiers felt when they watched, Chen Ming didn't know. It's not bad to think about.

In the following days, two groups of fighters went to the flight deck every day. The appearance of these new faces made the deck staff, who could only see some acquaintances every day, and were a little numb from work, with a lot of smiles on their faces.

It is worth mentioning that in the activities of the soldiers on the flight deck, the busiest person changed from the deck staff expected by Chen Ming to Officer Zhu of the security office.

After all, you can only see the ship once, but you can see the photos countless times. As the only officer on the ship who currently has the power to take pictures, Zhu has naturally become the busiest person.

Even Chen Ming heard that this guy can eat a little more meat than others when he eats in the restaurant now, because the soldiers in the cooking class also want to take pictures.

When the dust settles on this activity, half a year has officially passed.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the 13-year work schedule has been completed. Now there is only the last one, and the most difficult subject, waiting for Chen Ming and others to conquer.

After the completion of the night take-off and landing training, the entire outline of the carrier-based aircraft training on board has been completed. In the future, these training subjects will also be transformed into regular training subjects.

Chen Ming has been tracking the training process, and the training summary will also become the guiding blueprint for the future carrier-based aircraft on-board training program.

Seeing that this work, which had been recorded for more than a year, was about to come to an end, Chen Ming felt a sense of sorrow in his heart.

The end of the work often brings the ease of liberation, but if the work is followed up with too much meaning. It will also make people suffer some gains and losses, and it is inevitable that they will worry that their work is not done well and what problems will occur in the future.

Fortunately, Chen Ming's mentality adjusted quickly. The success of the previous paragraph represents the hard work of these people, and it also confirms that there is no problem with the set of training methods discussed by Chen Ming and the pilots themselves.

At least there is no problem for the time being, and there may be more efficient training methods in the future. But that scene is also what Chen Ming wants to see.

The difficulty in night take-off and landing training is not in operation, and the pilots who are now on the ship have no less than two hands.

The real difficulty is finding the flight path and determining the state of your landing.

Anyone who has ever flown at night knows that there are many runway lights on both sides of the runway of a civil aviation airport, and the street lights on the nearby streets will be controlled to prevent pilots from making mistakes.

And on aircraft carriers, runway lights? What's that?

The lights on the entire aircraft carrier's flight path, except for the light signal of the landing assistance system, are gone.

In addition, most of the civil aviation airports now have an ILS blind landing system. That is, a low-frequency VOR or NDB station is installed on the ground, which transmits radio signals to tell you the position of the runway centerline relative to the aircraft, and VHF signals to help the pilot determine whether the flight attitude at that time is higher or lower than the normal glide trajectory.

And this system, on aircraft carriers, is also absent.

This is not so much for technical reasons, but because of the limited space on the fighter. Search radar, fire control radar, weapon operating system, flight operating system, air conditioning system, emergency ejection system, and other various equipment have already crowded the cockpit of fighter jets, and there is no room at all to install a blind landing system.

What's more, the blind landing system is not a panacea. The final action of pulling the nose must be completed by the pilot's independent judgment, which also requires that the pilot is the secondary. At a certain altitude, there must be conditions for visual runway, otherwise it is necessary to fly to the alternate landing field, once the nose of the plane is late, it will be the destruction of the plane and the death of people.

These conditions also apply to these carrier-based pilots. It's even more demanding.

In the dark of night, there are no runway lights, no blind landing system, and the landing area is only a pitiful 36 meters.

"You all know the difficulty of taking off and landing at night, but if you don't know, I just said it."

Chen Ming looked at the pilots gathered in front of him and spoke.

"It's still the same as always, let's take it slowly, step by step. The first time I only asked, the night take-off was successful. If the landing conditions are not met, it will fly directly to the ground. ”

"Dai Democratic League, you are the first to fly, no problem, right?"

"No problem!"

After hearing Chen Ming's words, Dai Democratic League confidently agreed. It's just that in the face of landing at night, he didn't have the confidence to shout out the words to guarantee the completion of the task as before.

"I checked the weather data for the last week, and tonight's weather is the best. Let's first take a look at the conditions for your visual inspection of the ship in the air in this cloudless weather, and then make the next judgment. ”

After Chen Ming finished speaking, he paused.

"Dai Democratic League, when the time comes, you will fly around the ship in the sky twice, and it is best to look at them at different altitudes. If you feel that the visual condition is good, we will try to land. At the same time, you can now recall in your minds the position of the ship's landing signal and the centerline of the landing runway. ”

"When you land, the little green man will put up a glow stick at the end of the runway centerline to help you find the centerline."

The landing signal on an aircraft carrier can only be used to help pilots determine whether their aircraft is entering the correct landing angle. In other words, it only functions as a protractor.

It does not provide the Warhawks with a position on the runway centerline, nor does it give the Warhawks direction.

But it is the only source of light on the aircraft carrier's flight path.

In the first few experimental trainings, Chen Ming could specially select a time with good weather, and he could give the war eagle time to slowly circle and find a position.

But if it is to deal with a possible future war, this standard of training is clearly insufficient.

And in the vast darkness of the night, the landing signal light became the only beacon in the sky to illuminate the way home of the war eagles.

"Yes, I wrote it down."

Dai Minmeng and the other pilots naturally understood what Chen Ming meant.

The position of the landing signal and the flight runway is fixed, so the proportion of the distance between the two is also constant.

First, with the help of the position of the landing signal, you can roughly find the position of the runway centerline.

Wait for the approach phase to enter the subtle light of the glow stick and fine-tune it until it enters the correct landing course.
