Chapter 40: Horror
The Captain had been worried about the vacillation and psychological shadow of these rookie candidates after witnessing their companions die in front of him, but judging by the results of his assessment, he seemed to be overly concerned this time.
Considering the time constraints, everyone had resumed training in the afternoon.
According to the original arrangement, the lunar landing training was followed by flight training, but this time it was different from the past, and there was no instructor to sit behind them to guide.
After more than a month of intense training, the trainees are about to usher in their first solo flight.
NASA has always placed a high emphasis on flight lessons, calling them "space readiness training," and pilots have many things in common with spacecraft pilots, such as the need to constantly judge the current safety situation, mission priorities, weather conditions, fuel levels, and flight paths in the sky...... Various decisions are then made in a short period of time based on the intelligence gathered.
In the event of a malfunction or other emergency, the driver must respond correctly, and they need to be in contact with the ground control center by radio.
Therefore, flight training has always been the most important part of training, and it is also the one that players invest the most time and energy in.
However, it has only been a short time since the "accident" in the morning, the murderer has not been identified, and even the NASA accident identification report has not come out, so everyone can only guess what caused the crash of the moon training plane and the strong man named Anthony on it.
The main thing is that no one knows exactly how the other side did it.
Except for the young man accused of sneaking out at night, no one else seems to have left the space center, and almost everyone usually moves together, so it stands to reason that no one has touched the moon training plane in advance.
And Anthony was the first to board during the training, and at that time the other players were also standing next to the captain, because Zhang Heng's results had basically locked the first, he didn't pay all his attention to the moon training machine, and still spent some energy on other people, but during this period, no one was found to show any obvious abnormalities.
Supernatural powers?
Considering that the people who enter the dungeon are all players, there is a high possibility of carrying game items, which is also the most reasonable explanation at the moment, but in this way, there are many possibilities.
Zhang Heng can understand why the middle-aged man who looks like an intellectual wants to find the murderer so much, because if this matter is not resolved, everyone will have a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads.
However, as long as the main quest is not completed, everyone can only continue to train hard.
…………
After all, there had just been a major accident, and Cape Canaveral Air Force Base was also nervous, and the training jets were checked several times by ground crews to ensure that there were no more mechanical failures.
Zhang Heng changed into a special flight suit, brought a helmet and oxygen mask, and sat in the cockpit, for other players, this may indeed be the first time to fly alone, but he has flown solo many times in the previous transition dungeon, in fact, when he trained with the T-38 before, the flight instructor sitting in the back has been full of praise for his performance.
Zhang Henglv1's aircraft piloting skills may not be as good as that of professional pilots, but it is enough to cope with the current copy, especially after this period of strengthening and consolidation, all he lacks is flying experience.
The young men and high school students at the front of the line have already completed their flight training, which also makes the remaining players put their hearts back a little.
Zhang Heng was the third person to conduct training, he fastened his seat belt, pulled out the safety pin of the ejection seat, opened the head-up display, the lower display, and the corresponding electric door, respectively connected the aircraft's radar, flight control, communication system, and engine system, started the APU and engine, checked the dashboard, and confirmed that everything was fine.
After that, he made an OK gesture to the ground crew outside, who helped him remove the ladder and wheel block and unplug the power. Zhang Heng let go of the handbrake and let the plane taxi out of the hangar and onto the runway.
In the afternoon there was still wind, but the weather was much better than in the morning, and the main thing was that the sun was clear and it was still very suitable for flying.
At 13:45, Zhang Heng talked to the tower and asked to take off, and after getting approval, he pushed the throttle of his left hand to the maximum, accelerated the plane to 220 kilometers per hour, and then pulled the lever back to complete a beautiful lift-off action.
The plane left the ground smoothly, Zhang Heng glanced at the attitude instrument, confirmed the elevation angle and slope of the nose, and flew towards the mission target point.
The training required him to find a frigate named the Miller at sea and return home.
The content of the task is not too complicated, especially for Zhang Heng, he just needs to be careful not to miss the target, and after confirming that everything is normal, he even has the leisure to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
I have to admit that this game has indeed changed him in many ways.
Half a year ago, no matter how crazy he was, he would not have thought of what would happen today, you must know that even if he is a rich second generation, the excitement of racing outside the fifth ring road and fantasizing that he is Fujiwara Takumi, and he has already piloted a fighter jet and flown over the territorial waters of the United States.
At 13:52, Zhang Heng spoke to the tower for the second time, reporting his flight altitude and Mach number, and at the same time he also checked the fuel level of the plane, and everything was still as usual, but the sun outside the window was a little dazzling.
It took Zhang Heng less than ten minutes to find the target frigate, and at 13:59, he was on the third call with the tower to confirm that the mission had been completed, and Zhang Heng turned around and returned.
However, he had only flown for four and a half minutes, and the fuselage suddenly began to tremble violently, and Zhang Heng saw through the glass of the cockpit that the engine on the left side of the fighter was flaring up, accompanied by billowing smoke.
Immediately, a shrill siren sounded in his ears, and at the same time, the voice of the tower commander came from the communication channel, "David, what's going on?" ”
"I might have hit something, a seagull or something." Zhang Hengdao, and at the same time turned off the engine that caught fire at the first time.
"Will you ever be able to fly back, David?"
Zhang Heng looked at the declining altimeter on the dashboard, "I'll give it a try." ”
Until now, Zhang Heng still remained calm, and he and Armstrong had practiced how to deal with this situation in the transition dungeon, but he had just controlled the flight state, and before he could pull the fuselage higher, there was a loud noise from the only engine left on the right side.
The fighter lost all power in just half a minute.
