Chapter 779: Test Flight Training
Qin Feng came to the Gromov Test Flight Institute again, in Zhukovsky City, which belongs to a world-famous test flight organization, when Qin Feng's feet stood on the ground of the test flight institute, there was a feeling of disbelief, he had come, he was here so soon!
There are a total of three pilots who went abroad for training this time, in addition to Qin Feng, there are two, Tang Gang is also fortunate to be selected, plus the team leader, translator, a total of five people, now, carrying his luggage, standing at the door of the test flight institute, listening to the whistling sound of the aircraft in the base, Qin Feng felt very excited.
The training abroad began!
"Brother Feng, shall we go in?" Tang Gang said to Qin Feng that he couldn't wait.
"Welcome, welcome, our academy only recruits more than a dozen flight cadets every year, and this time there are six at once, which is a great honor." At this moment, there were several officers on the opposite side, and Qin Feng looked at the other party wearing a straight military uniform, and his sharp eyes showed that they were all pilots.
"I'm Kuangdrachenko, the director of the test pilot training school." Among the people who walked by, someone stretched out his hand.
Principal of the training school! actually came here in person, Qin Feng had heard of it, this principal is a national-level meritorious test pilot, he has tested many models, and, although the task is heavy, he will still serve as an instructor for test pilot training, and it is simply great to have such a person as his own instructor!
"Dean, if we have worked hard in the future, we will definitely study hard and live up to expectations." Qin Feng's words were very short, which already made Tang Gang envious when he heard it.
Qin Feng's first foreign language is English, and it is precisely because of this advantage that Qin Feng participated in cooperation projects such as Jian-7M and held countless meetings with the British, who would have thought that Qin Feng would learn Russian so quickly?
Qin Feng is also catching ducks on the shelves, at home, Gu Tingting can speak Russian, so she stepped up training, after all, with the continuous implementation of the purchase of Su-27 with Russia, there will be more and more opportunities to deal with Russians in the future, if you don't know Russian, it is quite inconvenient, so Qin Feng must learn it.
Besides, during this period of time, following General Lin back and forth, constantly dealing with the Russians, Qin Feng began to continue to learn, and now, it can be regarded as a small success.
Before coming to the test flight institute, it had been strengthened for a long time, so although they had a Russian translator, now, Qin Feng was definitely the most convenient to communicate directly with each other like this.
Next to the dean, there were vice presidents and flight instructors, all first-class test pilots, who had flown many types of aircraft, and now, facing the three instructors, several of them solemnly saluted.
"The training of test pilots is one year, the first few months, mainly theoretical study and ground training, after which it will be transferred to the training of various aircraft types." Kuangdrachenko said: "Because you are already test pilots, as long as you pass the theoretical assessment, you can shorten the theoretical study time, put more valuable time on the later aircraft training, and be able to fly a few more models." ”
"How many more aircraft to fly?" Qin Feng was very strange: "Are we going to fly all kinds of planes?" ”
"Of course, not only fighter planes, but also transport planes, passenger planes, and only when you have flown all kinds of planes can you be more familiar with flying. Our own trained pilots have to fly 10 aircraft types before they can be considered qualified. ”
Transport planes, airliners? Qin Feng really hasn't flown these yet, and besides, in a year, is it possible to fly so many models? In China, this is absolutely unimaginable, and it will take at least half a year to fly a professional plane before it can fly solo.
"Okay, then let's start theoretical learning as soon as possible." Qin Feng said.
Put down the luggage, the theoretical study began on the same day, when Kuang Deqingke personally taught, Qin Feng was full of admiration, this is the real national test pilot!
If you want to be a test pilot, you must be able to link theory with practice, if you are an engineer-level test pilot, you must be proficient in all kinds of theoretical knowledge, but if you pay too much attention to formula operation, then you will become a training designer, not a test pilot.
Kuang De Qingke's lectures are very fast, the derivation of various formulas is skipped, and the results are given directly, and only the most solid skills can do this.
Among the three of them, even Qin Feng felt a little difficult, Tang Gang and another test pilot were even more difficult to accept, but in order to complete the theoretical stage of study as soon as possible, they all worked hard, listened during the day, summarized at night, and deduced the director's calculations, just like that, day by day, their theoretical study passed quickly.
Of course, this is not a dogmatic explanation, theory is linked to practice, and these theoretical knowledge are applied to practice as much as possible, and after a series of studies and examinations, the theoretical course will pass.
For test pilots, long-term theoretical study will make test pilots unfamiliar with flying, so when the theoretical test is finally completed, the test flight on the plane begins.
"Before we get on the plane, we first do a flight simulator." On this day, I took everyone to the first floor of the building, and several people were bright.
The difficulty of direct flight is very great, so the simulation of the ground is very important, and professional ground simulation equipment can allow the pilot to adapt to the flight in advance.
The test pilot training school also has such equipment, and at this time in this hall there are four types of flight simulators, MiG-23, Su-17, Mi-8 and Tu-154.
The Mi-8 belongs to helicopters, and the flight of helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft is completely different, so there is no need to fly, and of the remaining three types of aircraft, Kundradchenko pointed to the largest thing: "Let's start with Figure 154!" ”
What about Su-27? At this time, Qin Feng had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he wanted to ask where Su 27 was, he came here, and the one he wanted to fly the most was Su 27, but after coming here, he had to obey the command, since people arranged to fly to Tu 154 first, then there must be a reason for someone's family.
This is the first time that a large passenger plane has been flown in.
Figure 154 is a medium- and long-range three-engine airliner developed by the Tupolev Design Bureau in the sixties and seventies, similar to the deployment of the Trident, with three turbofan engines arranged behind the fuselage and a T-shaped vertical tail, this layout used to be popular, but after three nightmares, this type of aircraft became less and less.
Figure 154, for example, has involved at least 30 air crashes since its inception in 1968, with a crash rate of 6.5%. However, it doesn't matter to the fighting people, they even buy second-hand passenger planes from abroad to use them.
As a large aircraft, it uses a control panel to fly, which is very different from the original aircraft. However, Qin Feng is still familiar with this kind of aircraft, after all, there are also passenger planes of the same type in China.
Let's start by conquering Figure 154!
