Chapter Eighty-Five: Opportunities Are Hard to Find
Why didn't you enter the Air Force?
The question is a bit abrupt.
If he had heard someone ask this question before, Long Yun would definitely recall that gloomy history, and his feelings would have been greatly affected. But now that he has broken free, his mood has naturally changed.
"It was brushed off because of a strange flaw called 'lack of space'."
As soon as the words came out, Long Yun suddenly regretted it a little. Loss of spatial sense, a very rare and unexplained strange condition, is generally considered untreatable: in that case, you can't fly an airplane at all, and you still have to get a license! Although after that bizarre crossing, not only did this defect mysteriously disappear, but also suddenly possessed extraordinary flying skills; But now facing the instructor, he is still a little nervous.
Hearing Long Yun's words, a trace of surprise appeared on Instructor Yan's face.
"Oh...... But now, looking at the level of your simulator, it doesn't look like there's a lack of space at all. It's a pity, such a good technology - since it doesn't affect now, have you ever considered going back to military school? ”
This was a very natural question, but it stopped Long Yun.
Facing Instructor Yan's expectant expression, he was a little stunned and didn't know what to say.
After graduating from the military academy, entering the Air Force to fly fighter planes and even attack planes was once his biggest dream; I don't know if it's the cover of the years, or the change of his mood, after breaking free, Long Yun only thinks about aviation competition and IFT.
In the past month or so, from Qingdao to Beijing, his life has also changed a lot, and he has never seriously considered being brushed off by the military academy before.
Probably subconsciously, participating in the IFT and then being selected by the Air Force to directly enter the assault aircraft unit is what Long Yun is really looking forward to.
"I ...... There are no ideas yet. Long Yun's words paused, "I think if you can participate in the aviation competition and get good results, it's not too late to try again." ”
Oh, and sure enough, this young man's current goal is still aviation competition.
Thinking like this, Instructor Yan felt that he had also asked about the same question, and he could just go back and talk back to the old alumni. As a soldier, he, like most of his comrades-in-arms, did not have the habit of gossiping about this and that; The reason why he pulled Long Yun to ask these questions today was also because of Wang Weiguo's request, and he was quite impressed by Long Yun, a student he had met before, so he asked him to ask this young man's thoughts.
As for Wang Weiguo's motive for asking him, he didn't think about it at all.
Instructor Yan didn't know Wang Weiguo's true identity, let alone who was behind him who really paid attention to Long Yun; And Long Yun, who was thoughtful because of the inquiry, did not have the idea of snooping into his consciousness, and had no way of knowing the fact that someone was paying attention to him.
"That's not bad either. In a few days, you can apply for the real computer exam, and you can pass it all at once! ”
"Thank you, Instructor Yan! I'll do my best. ”
……
A few days later, Long Yun was allowed to enter the computer assessment stage.
The assessment process is mediocre; Piloting an entry-level jet trainer, Long Yun completed all the prescribed items like a demonstration, and then obtained the entry permit for aviation competition: the C1 aviation pilot's license.
Getting the license so smoothly made all the students, including Liu Wei and Yang Ying, quite envious, they were still in the stage of fiddling with the simulator at this time, and if the score did not meet the standard, they were not eligible to apply for the computer-based assessment. However, Long Yun himself knew that even such a one-time passage was already quite unnecessary.
The docile K-8 trainer still needs to be assessed? He can fly with his eyes closed.
After nearly a month of boring study, Long Yun was a little numb to those aviation terms and basics, and now he wanted to vomit when he saw books and simulators; As for the war-torn parallel world, he has no idea of crossing for the time being.
If he just wants to fulfill his dream of piloting a fight, then he has fought enough in parallel worlds. Returning home with his license and resting on the sofa in the living room, Long Yun recalled his battles in the parallel world.
After the last encounter with the Germans' EF2000, Long Yun had another sortie and achieved two downed results.
It was only two or three weeks before the outbreak of the war, and the number of Longyun, or Viktor Rezenov, had already reached a staggering fourteen! According to the propaganda commissar of the regiment, this achievement ranked first among all the pilots of the Soviet Air Force and Air Defense Forces: the second place in the whole army is now only seven, and there are several aces who have just achieved five victories, but some of them have died after winning the trump card crown.
As for the NATO Air Force opposite, according to the estimates of the intelligence services, not a single person has yet been able to reach the number of ten shot down. Viktor Rezenov, the identity of Long Yun in the parallel world, is already the number one air combat ace in the world; Not only has it been widely praised by Soviet propaganda agencies as a combat hero, but even the NATO Air Force, which has always been above the top, is very concerned.
The most incomprehensible thing for NATO military experts is that this legendary figure is actually driving the MiG-29, which is regarded as second-rate by Western military experts.
Long Yun's outstanding achievements have aroused new interest in this Soviet fighter plane, which was previously quite disdainful, and the intelligence department has also received orders to further collect information about the MiG-29. If it weren't for the fact that there were no ready-made MiGs to test, it is estimated that they would have gone to great lengths to test and disassemble them, trying to figure out why this seemingly backward-looking Russian product had suddenly become so powerful.
However, none of the achievements in the parallel world have anything to do with reality.
Long Yun, who had obtained the license, stared at the elegantly decorated high ceiling, the delicate crystal chandelier shining, but he couldn't see where his path was now.
Seeing that the IFT China Qualifiers are imminent, although there is still two or three months of preparation time, the powerful teams all over the country are already ready to step up their daily training and tactical discussions. In such a tense time, stabilizing the team and striving for results is the team's top priority, who will spend their time recruiting new talents and cultivating potential stocks?
Long Yun had already known this before, but he still had a glimmer of hope and sent E-mails to many aviation teams, including several Beijing teams. But after a few days, I didn't wait for the notice of the interview, only a few teams replied kindly, which was actually a polite refusal.
It's not hard to see why. If you change to a racing team and run to apply to join just after taking the driver's license, what kind of response will you have? The answer is obvious.
However, any decent team has no low requirements for the qualifications of new members, and generally at least after flying fighters in large training centers for a period of time and obtaining the corresponding qualifications certificate, the team will consider interviews and subsequent on-board tests, and finally decide whether to hire them. For a person like him who has just obtained a license and has not yet covered the heat in his pocket, the opportunity can be said to be small, and when he encounters the pre-competition training, it can be said that it is difficult to join the team.
Or wait? When the dust settles after the domestic qualifiers, the team will naturally start to think about the development of newcomers, and there will be more opportunities at that time. But Long Yun also wants to participate!
The dream of blue sky, which has been sleeping for many years, once it is awakened again, really doesn't want to wait any longer. But only technology is useless after all.
Even if he is a Maxima, where is Bole?
It's really depressing.
