Chapter 656 Test Flight Work 2

Although Bao Zixuan said that human lives are more important than airplanes, the two people with many years of flying experience know that many things are not that simple. The aircraft they fly costs more than $150 million, making it arguably the most expensive aircraft in the world. If something really goes wrong, don't do this work again, as you're likely to be marginalized.

At the same time, speaking to family members is also a reminder, whether it is well-intentioned or not. They all understood what was going on, and they had to work wholeheartedly when they came to Heiyun. If they really dared to fly a plane and do something they shouldn't do, they would have no family left.

Bao Zixuan looks very young and very kind. That's because it didn't infringe on his interests. If there was an issue of interests involved, it would never be what he showed. If we only had a Bodhisattva heart, our business would not be as big as it is. Some clues can be seen from the fact that test pilots' families must come to work in Xiangjiang, and they must be married and have children.

But neither of them would explain that such a high salary allows you to work wholeheartedly. Don’t think too much about anything else, and you can’t think too much about it.

Andrepov said seriously: "Sir, please rest assured that we have conducted countless simulated flight tests before. There will definitely be no problems with our driving skills and handling of emergencies."

Simulated flight can also be called flight simulation, which refers to the use of computer software to simulate various elements encountered in real-world flight, such as aerodynamics, meteorology, geographical environment, flight control systems, flight electronic systems, combat flight weapon systems, ground Flight guidance, etc., is a sport that comprehensively conducts simulations in computers, and performs flight simulation control and flight sensory feedback through external hardware devices. It was first used for ground flight training of civilian or military pilots.

In order to allow test pilots to get started quickly, Heiyun Group used a Heiyun gy1 industrial computer as a hen to develop a simulated aircraft for hh-01; and the cockpit was completely made one-to-one according to the real aircraft.

The cost of this simulated flight machine alone is more than 5 million US dollars, but it is nothing compared to the sky-high price of aircraft. Multiple versions of this aircraft can also be developed, just to make it famous at the Paris Air Show.

With experience in simulated flight on the ground, pilots will become much more proficient after taking to the skies. At least you know the basic operations, and the rest depends on your adaptability.

Even though this old man looks tall and thick, he is also a person who is both thick and thin. The meaning is obvious. Whether there will be any problems with the pilot's operation depends on the performance of the aircraft.

However, these Bao Zixuan didn't pay too much attention. After giving them a firm look, the two of them prepared to board the plane from the belly of the plane.

The hh-01 aircraft adopts a side-by-side two-seater design, with the pilot's entry and exit under the aircraft. In order to reduce weight, ground staff will set up temporary ladders under the back of the seats to transport pilots to the aircraft. The door below the plane will then close. The pilot can sit directly in his seat. They stay in their seats during the flight, so they wear adult diapers under their flight suits. At the same time, you will go to the bathroom to defecate before flying. You can drink some water and eat some emergency food at most on the plane. The current conditions are like this, and everything needs to be overcome by the pilots themselves.

All work was ready, and the two boarded the plane. This time Bao Zixuan did not overstep his authority, but handed over the task of ground command to Frank Horton. This made the old man very satisfied. Back then, his uncle and father were commanding the ho229 test flight from the tower. Now it's his turn to do this job again. This is a kind of inheritance. Inheritance is highly recognized in Germany because it means that the glory of ancestors can be continued.

Andrepov didn't have much favorable impressions of the Germans, and he knew that everyone just had to do a job. In addition, this old German man does have real skills and has considered many issues in advance.

Everyone in the world will have at least respect for people with real abilities. Even though Andrepov has character, he also understands that as long as he wants to be a test pilot, he must listen to the old German man. Who is the chief designer and knows the performance of the aircraft well? Moreover, the boss trusts this person very much, so how can he dare to make mistakes?

Andrepov said through the microphone on the respirator: "Tower, tower. This is the Black Cloud hh-01 fighter-bomber. I am the captain Andrepov. Everything is ready in front of the aircraft. Please ask for ignition."

The test flight work must be done step by step, step by step. There is no room for sloppiness, and the staff all know the value of this aircraft. If there really is a problem with the part they are responsible for, they cannot afford to pay for it. You can also say goodbye to Heiyun Group in the future. If you were fired due to technical problems, it will probably be difficult to find a good job again.

Frank Horton: "It can light a fire."

After hearing the agreement from the tower, Andrepov turned on the ignition. I saw two turbofan engines starting to work, and suddenly there were some flames coming out of the rear of the engines. This is because engineers have built in special equipment, otherwise more flames would escape.

Stealth aircraft must be invisible in appearance so that radar cannot detect you. It should not be exposed because of the flames ejected from the engine. Therefore, many bold innovations were made on this aircraft, and many new technologies were applied at the same time. Of course, other engineers and technicians think so, but for Bao Zixuan, they are just copying the technology from the previous life, and there is nothing new.

Bao Zixuan was very satisfied with the sound of the engine. At least it proves that the engine effect has been achieved, which means that aircraft development has been half successful. As long as there are no problems with the power system, there won't be any major problems in other parts.

After seeing that the screen showed that all the data was normal, and Zhao Jun reported to him that the radar and airborne electronic equipment were operating normally.

Andrepov's expression became serious and he said into the microphone: "Tower, tower. Everything is normal with the plane. Please take off now."

You must be serious at this time. If something goes wrong, it will be a big problem. As one of the most dangerous professions in the world, being a test pilot means fighting death, and there is no room for carelessness.

Frank Horton: "It's OK to take off. There won't be any aircraft in Airspace 3 for a short period of time. We can conduct tests in Airspace 3 and control the aircraft to climb to within 15,000 meters. This is our first flight. There is still a long way to go." long."

The Heiyun Group has deployed two large radars in the Tianshuiwei area. Of course, they were assembled by themselves; radars are military equipment, and Bao Zixuan cannot go too far. There is no big problem if you assemble it yourself. The British can turn a blind eye or close one eye and pretend not to see it. No one will say anything about where to put relationships, money, and strength.

Radar can capture passing aircraft and ships very well, which is very necessary for the Black Cloud Group, which often conducts secret training.

In addition, Frank Horton also wanted to tell the Soviets not to go too far. There is still a long way to go, and I don’t want to take such a risk the first time.

The Soviets were all very courageous, and the test pilots were even more courageous. They were all worried that Andrepov was having too much fun and forgot that this was his first test flight.

After receiving the order, Andrepov opened the throttle and the plane began to taxi on the runway. Everyone was very nervous as they watched the plane getting faster and faster.

Being able to fly means that the plan is feasible and their previous efforts have not been in vain. And being able to make the aircraft fly on the first test flight is a success. The rest can be improved slowly. As long as it can fly, the rest is not a big problem.

But once it can't fly, it will become very embarrassing. If you dare to call a plane without the ability to fly, isn't that a slap in the face?

Not being able to fly means that the design is unreasonable and many previous designs have to be overturned. It is not an exaggeration to say that all the efforts made in the recent period have been in vain. After all, they have not achieved actual results.

It is a heavy blow to the morale of the entire team, and of course it is also related to issues such as bonuses and benefits. In short, everyone at the scene hopes that the plane can fly. Money, reputation, and results are all at hand, and it all depends on whether the plane is powerful.

Fortunately, we did not disappoint everyone, and we taxied on the runway for about 1,500 meters. When Andrepov saw that the take-off speed had been reached, he began to lift the aircraft. The aircraft left the ground and flew towards the sky at an elevation angle of about 30 degrees.

In fact, the aircraft had already reached the minimum take-off speed when taxiing less than 1,000 meters. That was because the aircraft did not carry any weapons at this time and had relatively little fuel. Of course, the speed would increase faster; but Andrepov did not lift the plane to be on the safe side.

As Frank Horton said, this is the first test flight; there is no need to take too many risks, there is still a long way to go.
