Chapter Ninety-One: The First Flight Was Successful

After coming off the assembly line, Duan Yunpeng began to arrange the taxiing test, you must know that before the first flight, these tasks must be done, after all, the current fierce fire fighter is a heavy fighter, which is more complicated, so these jobs must be done.

Today is the day of the first taxiing test, and at the test flight site, a fierce fire fighter with the number 001 has now been refueled and is ready to slide out.

As the taxi test pilot is Duan Yunpeng's female disciple Zhang Xia, she is now a very good bomber captain, but she wants to try the fighter again, so Duan Yunpeng agreed to her.

Therefore, after Zhang Xia successfully flew the Fury fighter, she now began to serve as a test pilot of the fierce fire heavy fighter.

I saw Zhang Xia today, with an excited and shy face, in front of Duan Yunpeng, she would always seem at a loss, after all, she couldn't let go of her secret love for Duan Yunpeng in her heart.

The ground sliding test is divided into three stages, the first stage is low-speed sliding, which is relatively slow and safer, so the first sliding let Zhang Xia come, and Duan Yunpeng is not nonsense.

Zhang Xia sat in the cockpit, and Duan Yunpeng encouraged her below: "Zhang Xia, do a good job, I believe you must be the best female test pilot!" ”

Uh, female test pilots? It seems that she is the only one now, Zhang Xiaqiao blushed slightly and said: "Yes, I will definitely operate well and live up to your high expectations!" ”

The cockpit canopy was closed, and then Zhang Xia began to start the engine, the 1,600-horsepower turboprop engine was really powerful, and the roar alone made people's blood boil.

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Xia released the brakes, only to see that this fierce fire fighter, under the pull of the engine, quickly taxied, but Zhang Xia now needs to control the fighter and aim at the runway centerline, because once it deviates, there may be an accident, although it is said that this is a low-speed taxi, but if the plane is damaged, it will also affect the final test flight progress, Zhang Xia does not dare to be careless.

You must know that deviation is a design problem of the aircraft, if there is one, it is necessary to find out the reason, improve the design, and solve this problem, because deviation is very serious, if it deviates when taking off, it is relatively better, but if it deviates from the direction when landing, it is fatal.

Soon Zhang Xia piloted the fierce fire fighter, from the runway to the end, the whole process is not fast, below 50 kilometers per hour, it seems that the direction is not deviated, which shows that there is no problem with design and manufacturing.

Soon Zhang Xia ran back and forth two more times, her self-confidence was stronger, and when she got off the plane, Duan Yunpeng stepped forward and asked, "Comrade Zhang Xia, how do you feel?" ”

Zhang Xia said excitedly: "Director Duan, I think I can fly it into the blue sky, it feels great, this is really a good plane!" ”

Duan Yunpeng said with a smile: "Okay, since you have this confidence, then the task of this first flight will be handed over to you!" ”

When Zhang Xia heard that Duan Yunpeng was really coming, she was also a little excited: "Really? Me, can I really? ”

Duan Yunpeng smiled: "What's not to do, I say you can do it, understand!" ”

Zhang Xia is of course very happy, after all, this is the most advanced fighter in the world, if it can be piloted for the first time successfully, this is to be recorded in the history of aviation of course she is excited.

In the next taxi test, other test pilots also participated, but in general, Zhang Xia was the main one.

After many taxi tests, it is now ready for the first flight.

At the beginning of February, although the weather was still very cold, it could not stop the enthusiasm of the leaders of the Eighth Route Army, they had been waiting to watch the first flight of the fierce fire fighter, and today was the day of the first flight ceremony, so they all came to the scene of the first flight ceremony of the fierce fire fighter.

Of course, representatives of the Allied forces also came, because they were staring at this fighter, and the Allies urgently needed this advanced fighter, so they placed a large number of orders, the first batch of 500 aircraft.

This time it was indeed fierce enough, five hundred heavy fighters, although it seemed to be an astronomical number for the Eighth Route Army, but for the Allies, it was nothing at all.

After all, there are too many fighters and bombers on the battlefield now, and there are thousands of them at every turn, so these hundreds of fierce fire fighters are also an important core combat force of the Allied forces in the future.

Representatives of the Allied forces came to visit the first flight ceremony, also to see if this fighter is really stronger than the United States.

On the tarmac, the fierce fire fighters were ready to go, and the leaders of the Eighth Route Army first made a speech, and then invited the representatives of the allied forces to speak, and it can be seen that the representatives of the allied forces were also a little impatient.

Duan Yunpeng gave an order, and Zhang Xia, the first flight test pilot, walked to the tarmac, she was shouldering an important mission and became the focus of the audience, especially the representatives of the allied forces, who were very shocked to see that the test pilot was a female pilot, because in their opinion, it was not suitable for a woman to serve as a fighter pilot, let alone test a fighter.

But this is the arrangement of the Eighth Route Army, so they are not easy to ask.

In order to meet him safely, Duan Yunpeng also followed him to the tarmac to give Zhang Xia confidence.

Zhang Xia began to inspect the fierce fire fighter according to the process specified in the test flight manual, first the fuselage, then into the cockpit, check the instruments, and finally after there was no problem, the signature was completed, and the cockpit cover was covered by Duan Yunpeng himself.

This made her very happy, and she started to operate it seriously, and soon this fierce fighter roared.

The powerful engine allows the fuselage to quickly taxi onto the runway, and the next step is to accelerate the taxi.

As the engine power increased, the propeller quickly sucked the air behind the fuselage, the plane was getting faster and faster, Zhang Xia clenched the joystick, stepped on the rudder, and tried to control the fierce fire fighter, and soon the speed rose, she knew it was time to pull up.

After taxiing for just over 300 meters, the fierce fighter took to the air.

Sixteen hundred horsepower is not a joke, this is the same as a Mustang, no one has ever piloted it to take off, so Zhang Xia can't control it, I saw this fierce fire fighter, just pulled up, the nose of the plane was raised high, like a cobra, its angle of attack is more than 60 degrees, it looks like it is climbing vertically, this first flight is so slippery, people on the ground are dumbfounded.

I have to say that the design of the fierce fire fighter is indeed very good, even this did not get out of control, Zhang Xia quickly found the feeling, controlled the plane, and entered the state of level flight.

The speed also increased, and with a gentle push of the throttle, the fighter exceeded 500 kilometers per hour, whistling over the heads of everyone.
