Chapter 785: Action Introduction
Regardless of whether the Cobra maneuver is useful in actual combat or not, being able to fly out of this maneuver shows that the performance of this aircraft has been mastered to the extreme, and now, Qin Feng finally flew on the Su-27 for the first time, as a test pilot, of course, he has to challenge the limit, he wants to conquer this kind of aircraft, and wants to fly the most representative action!
Pugachev shook his head: "No, we do not have this project in our flight plans. ”
"Then we can join."
"Nope." Pugachev said very firmly: "If you want to fly this maneuver, you need at least 100 hours of flying experience, and according to the plan, you can fly on the Su-27 for a maximum of 20 hours, so it is not enough to master this aircraft thoroughly, and if you can't operate it to the extreme, you won't be able to fly this action." ”
This seemingly simple action is based on an in-depth understanding of the fighter, only by accurately grasping the performance of the aircraft, can fly such a action, just like a sniper is fed with bullets, and excellent pilots are also the result of repeatedly flying on the plane, and now Qin Feng's flight time is far from meeting the actual needs, so Pugachev will not agree to him doing this.
If you want to fly to that hour, then the whole training process, there is no need to fly anything else, only fly such a model, you know, even in combat units, many pilots fly about 100 hours a year.
"What if I can master as much as I need in these twenty hours?" Qin Feng asked.
"Impossible." Pugachev said: "Even if it is me, it takes me fifty hours to master the essence, and if you only fly for twenty hours, it is impossible." ”
"Okay, then we'll see." Qin Feng said.
Generally speaking, Russia's friends are still more sincere to their own side, and the opponent's opposition must be a technical problem, not a constraint by some other factors, as long as the plane is completely controlled within 20 hours, then it will be fine.
How can this be done? By memory, of course, by training!
Normal change of flight, it takes half a year to a year, during this time, to be familiar with the entire aircraft, if it is other aircraft, maybe the test flight institute will not give detailed information, but the Su-27 is different, this kind of aircraft was originally exported to China, therefore, all kinds of data are open, so, Qin Feng is here, and he plunged into it.
If you want to really fly the performance of the aircraft to the extreme, you must have a complete understanding of the aircraft, not only the flight manual, but also the performance manual of the fighter, but also the structure of the aircraft, the role of each part, the data envelope of various flights, etc., all need to be completely familiar!
In particular, these books are in Russian, Qin Feng's knowledge of the Russian language learned during this time finally came in handy, he tirelessly studied all kinds of technical details, and after encountering problems, he asked others for advice, if he could catch Pugachev, it would be the best, he was originally a test pilot of this aircraft, so he was proficient in all kinds of technologies, when he heard the questions asked by Qin Feng, Pugachev was also staggered, Qin Feng's progress during this period of time greatly exceeded Pugachev's expectations!
On this day, when he stepped off the plane again, Pugachev took his helmet and said to Qin Feng: "Today's flight, your movements are very standard, and every overload is pulled in place, which means that you are completely familiar with this plane!" ”
This is also something that Pugachev absolutely did not expect, Qin Feng's progress during this period of time has been so rapid, and Qin Feng can do all kinds of actions in today's test flight, which shows that he is completely familiar with this fighter!
"So, today I will teach you the theoretical knowledge of the maneuver of flying the cobra, and tomorrow I will make the last test flight, and I hope you will be able to fly this maneuver!"
"Ulla!" Qin Feng shouted happily that he was finally going to become the first Chinese pilot to fly the Su-27 Cobra maneuver! He couldn't be happier.
"If you want to fly a Cobra maneuver, the first thing is to disconnect the angle of attack limiter." Back in the classroom, Pugachev began to teach everyone the tricks of the Feisu-27.
Even if this aircraft has the performance of a large angle of attack, but in order to avoid accidents, it is restricted to enter this state during normal flight, so the first step is to disconnect this limiter, of course, this is not allowed by the flight outline.
"Then, speed and altitude are important."
Pugachev was explaining that the three Chinese pilots were all taking serious notes, and although Tang Gang and the other pilot did not have permission to fly the Cobra, they could now write down the essentials of the operation first, and then they could try to do such maneuvers when they were proficient in flying in the future.
When Pugachev finished speaking, it was everyone's turn to ask questions, Qin Feng took the notebook and asked Pugachev: "You said that the first step is to disconnect this angle of attack limiter, but when you took me to fly, I didn't see the angle of attack limiter being turned off." Moreover, on the operating diagram of the cockpit, the rear cabin does not have this switch. ”
The first action confused Qin Feng, before it was turned off, the angle of attack could not exceed 26 degrees, but when Pugachev was flying this action, he didn't turn it off at all, Qin Feng paid attention to the indicator light!
Now, Qin Feng recalled the cockpit diagram he had memorized, and he remembered the position of each electric door very clearly, and he was sure that the rear cabin did not have this switch.
"You're very observant." Pugachev sighed: "That's right, I didn't turn off this switch, because the switch is only available in the front compartment." However, I already knew how to break through it, and it only took me 15 kilograms more to break through the 26-degree angle of attack limit when pulling the rod. Of course, I don't recommend that. ”
In the fierce battle, you may encounter various unexpected situations, and when you need a large angle of attack, you can't turn off the switch, what should you do? Just apply more force on the lever and you're good to go! This is also the internal setting of the system, which belongs to the hidden function, when the average pilot is flying, he is cautious, and he will definitely not pull it hard, so he will not find this hidden function, Pugachev is the best pilot, and he is certainly familiar enough with this fighter.
He looked at Qin Feng with satisfied eyes, and admired Qin Feng's observation, which is the level that an excellent test pilot should have.
