Chapter 35: Cloud Eagle No. 1
"Xiaohan? Xiao Han is here! The old man twisted his body with great effort, and Shi Han hurriedly stepped forward to hold on to the ladder.
"Slow down! How did you get in. Shi Han said helplessly.
The old man finally withdrew from the narrow sliding compartment, his half-white hair was already sweaty and sticking to his forehead, he was biting a mini flashlight in his mouth, and his big fan-like hands were holding on to the ladder and slowly climbing down.
Shi Han hurriedly took the flashlight from his mouth and held his arm.
"Go, go, I'm not seventy or eighty!" The old man waved his hand in disgust and opened Shi Han's hand to help him.
"You're eighty-two!" Shi Han said helplessly.
"Don't talk nonsense! You kid runs around every day and forgets Yunying No. 1? When did the Cloud Eagle 1 make its first flight? The old man yelled dissatisfied.
Shi Han asked, "What are you anxious about!" If the driver is not trained well, who will fly? ”
There have been no flying machines on Earth for hundreds of years, and the pilot training materials found from the data pile are not at all compatible with Yunying 1, and it took Shi Han a lot of energy to build a flight simulator alone.
The old man stopped talking, he had participated in all the links of Yunying No. 1 from the beginning, of course he knew this. He's just habitually nagging.
"What were you doing? Is there a problem with the hatch? Shi Han changed the subject.
"There is no problem, Fan always wants to see if there is room for improvement and speed up the opening and closing speed of the cabin door." The engineer next to him said helplessly.
The old man immediately glared at him, and said to Shi Han: "If you don't arrange a test flight, what can I do?" ”
"Fly! Fly tomorrow! Shi Han hurriedly said, if the test flight is not arranged, the old man will beat himself, and Shi Han doesn't want to try his fan-like slap again.
The old man's name is Fan Jingwu, who is Shi Han's enlightenment teacher, and is also Shi Yan, Wu Qingnian's master. Shi Han has always treated him like a grandfather. Fan Lao is the most senior weapons expert and aircraft expert in the base.
Hearing Shi Han say that he would fly tomorrow, the old man fell silent, and there was nothing to show what he had learned in his life, until Wu Qingnian and Shi Yan launched the anti-gravity warship project. In the middle, he lost his love twice, and even thought that Shi Han was dead for a while.
Looking at the Yunying No. 1 in front of him, this life is worthwhile! Revival is expected!
"Let's go! Drink two with me! The old man adjusted his mood in an instant, grabbed Shi Han and left.
"Is there a call coming from Dawn City?" Fan Lao and Shi Han sat facing each other, and in the middle of the two chairs was a small square table with two plates of bacon and a bottle of fruit wine.
"Maybe it's coming." Shi Handao.
"So what are you going to do? Go to war with them? Fan Lao sandwiched a piece of bacon.
"Their genetically modified warriors are very strong, so I have to hurry up and test fly the Cloud Eagle One, and I must use air superiority to wipe them out of the base!" Shi Han said.
"Well, what if they don't come?" Fan Lao continued to ask questions.
"Not coming? If they don't go to war, I'll continue to gather the tribal population and grow the base. Shi Han thought to himself, there is a high probability that Dawn City will call.
"You haven't thought about taking the initiative?" Fan Lao chewed on the bacon and glanced at Shi Han with squinted eyes.
"Our enemies are not humans, and if we go to war, we will cause casualties, and I want to try to surrender them without a fight!" Shi Han raised his glass.
Fan Lao touched him with relief, took a sip before saying, "The idea of avoiding casualties is right, there are not many remaining human beings!" ”
Fan Lao's tone changed, and he said, "But because there are not many remaining human beings, you must obtain the right to speak for all human beings!" Concentrate the power of all human beings! Otherwise, why would you fight with aliens? ”
"Yes, I understand, as long as the test flight of Yunying No. 1 is no problem, we will speed up the construction of the Yunying flight formation, as long as we have air supremacy, no matter whether it is Dawn City or which city, we are powerless to resist!" Shi Handao.
"Well, the fist must be revealed! This is also to give them confidence, if your fists are not hard, why should people mess with you? Fan Lao was eating and drinking.
Fan Lao suddenly said: "When will you and Han Yatou get married?" ”
Shi Han paused for a moment and said, "Wait a little longer!" At present, the base is full of problems, and she is too busy to see her every day, and when the base is stable, I will consider getting married! ”
"Cut~~, what are you waiting for? Old man, I took a fancy to my mother-in-law back in the night, and I hugged her back to the room that night! You're already living together, it's easier! Just announce it, isn't it? Fan Lao said disdainfully.
Shi Han suddenly excused himself and ran away quickly.
On the seventeenth day of the lunar month, it was sunny, and the largest experimental platform in the Chuanhu base was full of people, and the top of the city wall was also full of people, and everyone was waiting for the historic moment.
"The driver is in place!"
"Co-pilot in place!"
"The hatch is closed!"
"The take-off and landing platform is empty!"
"Power System Activation!" I saw a shock to the fuselage of Yunying No. 1, and if you look closely, you will find that the landing gear has been elongated. It shows that it is no longer load-bearing, and the fuselage is already suspended.
"Cloud Eagle One is ready, please instruct!"
Shi Han looked at the silver-gray aircraft through the tower, picked up the communicator and said calmly: "Yunying No. 1, take off!" ”
"Roger!" The pilot of Yunying No. 1 responded excitedly and raised the lever steadily.
"Whew~!" Yunying No. 1 rose vertically, bringing up an invisible wind and waves!
"Wow~" There was an exclamation all around, and Yunying No. 1 had quickly risen to five hundred meters in the air.
"The anti-gravity engine is normal, Yunying One, please instruct!" After the Yunying No. 1 rose to 500 meters, it hovered there steadily.
"Yunying No. 1, free maneuver test! Complete! ”
"Cloud Eagle received!" As soon as the pilot lifted the joystick, he saw that Yunying No. 1 was like a stone shot by a slingshot, shooting quickly into the air!
"Wow! Slow down! This is a violation! The co-pilot exclaimed! The violent feeling of oppression made him feel sick and dizzy. Overloaded!
"I'm sorry! I'm testing the vertical maneuverability of the Cloud Eagle! Start the tail spray! The driver said with a sigh of relief.
"Take it easy! The commander is watching too! The co-pilot admonished, and then said, "The tail spray engine starts!" ”
I saw that the two tail engines of Yunying No. 1 suddenly erupted blue tail flames! Sou! Yunying No. 1 shot out like Li Xuan's arrow!
"Is that Auroville?" The co-pilot looked at a small black siege on a white ground and said suspiciously.
The driver also saw the little fleeting town, "It should be!" ”
In fact, Dawn City is only thirty or forty kilometers away from the Sichuan Lake base. It takes three days to trek on the ground, and it's only a blink of an eye on the Cloud Eagle One!
Then they tried the cobra maneuver, the falling leaves, the Imaiman maneuver, etc., but found that there was no point in doing these actions because it was so simple! The limit of Yunying 1 is the driver's overload limit!
As long as the driver can withstand it, the maneuverability of the Cloud Eagle One can do all the maneuvers they can imagine!
