"103, the deck has been cleared and the landing approach can be carried out." After seeing that the aircraft had reached 600 meters, which is the minimum waiting route altitude, Li Cang gave the 103 aircraft landing permission.

"103, received!" The clear female voice still had the same tone, as if the damage to the wing would not cause any emotional fluctuations in her.

After receiving the landing permission, the aircraft happened to pass point 1. At this time, aircraft 103 did not immediately turn left continuously, because entering the approach phase usually starts from point 3, that is to say, leaving the holding pattern usually starts from point 3.

Detach at the number point instead of waiting for any point on the route to detach.

The position of point 3 is exactly at the nine o'clock direction of the aircraft carrier, and the direction of the aircraft is exactly opposite to the direction of the aircraft carrier. At this time, after the 103 aircraft passes point 3, it begins to descend on its own, and then starts to fly at an angle greater than the opposite direction of the aircraft carrier.

Turn left.

Plane 103 chose an angle of 120 degrees with the aircraft carrier's heading, departed from the original route, turned left in a circular arc, and finally flew three nautical miles behind the aircraft carrier, with a horizontal distance of 0.1 nautical miles and an altitude of 350 knots.

Look.

During this turn, you must not leave the aircraft carrier control area with a radius of five nautical miles, otherwise you will have to conduct a new holding pattern, which will greatly affect the recovery efficiency of the aircraft carrier.

When it was about to cut through the front end of the aircraft carrier, Plane 103 began to turn left, starting from three sides.

It should be noted here that because 103 is only one aircraft and not a formation flight, there is no need to consider other aircraft. If there is a formation flight, the lead aircraft will be the first to turn left after giving the wingman a breakaway signal, and the other wingmen will maintain level flight.

, after counting for ten seconds, the second wingman rolls to the left to break away like the leader, and so on for the remaining wingmen, with intervals of ten seconds.

Therefore, during formation flight recovery, if the first lead aircraft makes a late left turn to disengage, the following wingman will also be late. As a result, the following wingman may exit the aircraft carrier control due to the long level flight distance.

area. Therefore, the lead aircraft must grasp the timing of separation very accurately, otherwise, it will deceive the wingmen following it.

If operated in this way, when all aircraft in the formation enter the three-sided route, there will be about thirty seconds between each aircraft.

However, this time the 103 aircraft did not fly in formation, so its degree of freedom was quite high. As long as it ensured that it did not leave the aircraft carrier's control area, it would not be a problem to make a left turn to leave later.

During the process of turning left to break away from and join the three sides, you must keep the height unchanged. At the same time, you can reduce the throttle and hold the stick to slow down the speed.

After the speed drops below 250 knots, you can start to extend the landing gear, extend the flaps, and start establishing the landing configuration.

During this process, in addition to maintaining a constant altitude of 800 feet, after turning to a three-sided track, the horizontal distance between it and the aircraft carrier's course must be accurately maintained at 1.2 nautical miles, which is a fixed value. If the pilot turns

After the three sides are leveled, if there is a large deviation from this value, it is undoubtedly an unqualified landing route. If the instructor scores the aircraft on the plane, this alone will be a direct vote of rejection.

The pilot of Aircraft 103 was quite skilled. On the radar screen, Li Cang could clearly see that the horizontal distance between the aircraft signal point and the aircraft carrier's course was exactly 1.2 nautical miles, without any deviation.

Li Cang knew who the pilot on Plane 103 was, so he was not much surprised by such precise operation.

After turning into a three-sided route, the 103 pilot began to gradually descend to an altitude of 600 feet, and at the same time adjusted the throttle so that the speed vector was within the E mark of the angle of attack bracket. This would keep the aircraft at a suitable approach angle of attack.

At this time, the aircraft should consider when to turn to the fourth side. The timing of when to turn to the fourth side is also a technical task. If it turns too early, the fifth side will be too short, which is not conducive to the aircraft's maneuverability.

Correction in the final stage. If it is transferred too late, it may transfer out of the aircraft carrier control area, which is also not allowed.

Unlike short final takeoff and landing at land-based airports, one of the biggest differences in aircraft carrier landing is that the aircraft carrier landing point is moved, and the pilot needs to calculate the lead time.

Generally speaking, two to three degrees after passing through the aircraft carrier Takang Terrace, you start to turn to the four sides, while continuing to lower the altitude, keeping the slope at 25 to 30 degrees. At the beginning of the four sides turn

At this stage, do not rush to find the aircraft carrier. Due to the limitation of the viewing angle, the pilot may need to spend a lot of energy to visually see the aircraft carrier. This will divert a large part of the energy and cause the pilot to lose his attention to the instruments in the cabin. Therefore, when approaching,

When setting the final heading, start looking outside at that time, so as not to cause the loss of instrument data.

"103, C18E, visual lights, fuel level 3.3!" After turning to the final line, the 103 aircraft made the final report of landing. At this time, not only the call sign must be reported, but also the aircraft model and remaining fuel level.

As for the so-called visual lighting, it refers to the visual Fresnel lens navigation lighting system, which is often called a "meat ball" in foreign countries!

"Received! After stopping, park on the spot and the aircraft will be taken over by the damage control team and maintenance personnel!" the tower commanded.

Normally after landing on the ship, the aircraft would be guided to glide away from the landing area and fold the wings at the same time. However, this time the aircraft was damaged. Only by professionals taking over the aircraft as soon as possible can the possible danger be minimized, so the tower asked 103 to take over the aircraft as soon as possible.

Stop the aircraft and hand it over to the damage control team and maintenance personnel.

This is the same as when a passenger plane occupies the runway and evacuates in place after landing in an emergency. You can't let the pilot taxi the plane to the parking space after the plane is seriously damaged, right? What if something goes wrong during the taxiing process?

?Who will be responsible?

"103, received!" After the pilot of the 103 aircraft turned to final, the direction he faced was not 345 on the oblique deck channel, nor 355 on the aircraft carrier's course, but 350 between the two. This involves

Tips for landing on angled decks.

Precisely because the aircraft carrier is moving, it also means that the five-sided channel where the angled deck is located is also parallel and moving forward. Therefore, the pilot cannot directly use the channel of the angled deck, but must follow the operating course of the aircraft carrier.

The distance between the heading of an aircraft carrier and the angled deck channel. It is shown on the head-up display that the speed vector is not on the runway, but slightly to the right of the runway.

Why does the landing of carrier-based aircraft require additional landing qualification certification? It is because the environment for aircraft carrier landing is still too different from that of a land-based airport. It is not possible for a pilot who can take off and land normally at a land-based airport to perform the landing without any difference.

When it comes to the aircraft carrier platform, the gap is really huge and the procedures are quite different, so additional qualifications are required.

The landing commander starts timing after the aircraft enters the center of the crosshair. From the start of timing to the completion of landing, the optimal time should be between fifteen and eighteen seconds. If this time differs too much from the appropriate time, the landing commander will

The ship commander may even direct the aircraft to conduct a go-around.

The main reason is that if this time deviation is too large, it means that there is a serious problem with the aircraft's final descent trajectory or descent rate. If there is no go-around, some unpredictable dangers may occur during the landing.

On the deck, Xu Xian reluctantly watched a C18 trailing a long smoke trail from the five sides. Xu Xian counted silently in his heart. Within sixteen seconds, the plane landed on the deck accurately.

At the moment the aircraft touched down, the aircraft's engine erupted with a powerful roar in a short time, which was a manifestation of added military thrust.

Different from landing at a land-based airport, when an aircraft carrier lands, the throttle will not be turned to idle at the moment of touchdown, but will be increased to military thrust.

The so-called military thrust is the maximum thrust without afterburner. This is to prevent the carrier-based aircraft from decoupling. Once the carrier-based aircraft is decoupled and the throttle is set to idle, the short runway of the aircraft carrier is simply not enough to allow the carrier-based aircraft to decouple.

Accelerate again to the appropriate take-off thrust, so that the carrier-based aircraft can only drill into the sea.

In order to prevent this kind of situation from happening, when touching down, the pilot not only cannot retract the throttle, but also has to throttle it. In this case, even if the aircraft is decoupled, it can still be pulled up again.

However, the aircraft's grounding action was quite beautiful. The hook hooked onto the second blocking cable accurately. The aircraft was suddenly pulled to a stop. At the same time, the pilot felt that the aircraft hooked onto the blocking cable, and immediately closed the throttle.

What a pretty landing!

Following the originally planned instructions, the pilot immediately shut down the engines and turned off all external lights.

After the roar of the engine slowly subsided, a small group of people first pushed an iron ladder against the cockpit of the aircraft to let the pilot inside come out first.

As the hatch cover opened, the pilot stepped out and took off his helmet, revealing a beautiful face.

"Female?" Xu Xian was stunned. He didn't expect that the pilot inside was actually a woman. There are also female pilots in Hainan Airlines?

After the pilot came out, two people first confirmed that the plane was generally safe. Now, more talents gradually gathered. Otherwise, if a large number of people rushed forward rashly, if the plane was still in danger, wouldn't it be too much damage?

?

Therefore, after a small number of people roughly determined that the aircraft was not in specific danger, more people gathered around to deal with the aircraft.

"Female? What are you talking about? She is a flower of Hainan Airlines!" The flight attendant looked at Xu Xian strangely: "You don't know, right?"

"Should I know?" Xu Xian rolled his eyes. He is not a person who likes gossip, and he has only been here for a short time. How can he cover everything? He said displeasedly: "But she is the only one in the entire South Ship.

A female flyer?”

The maintenance officer raised his finger: "To be precise, she is not a flower of our southern fleet, but a flower of the entire three major fleets. Do you understand?"

"Huh? The three fleets are just a flower?" Xu Xian recalled that there were too many people just now, and the distance was too far. Xu Xian could only roughly tell the gender, the specific appearance, whether she was beautiful, and how beautiful she was.

His eyes were all black.

However, since the three major fleets are said to be a flower, it looks pretty good.

In civil aviation, female pilots are already considered rare. In the aircraft carrier-based aircraft unit, Xu Xian never expected that there were female pilots. Even if there were female pilots, there was a high probability that they would be in the helicopter fleet, but she

But it was a fighter squadron, which completely exceeded Xu Xian's expectations.

After Xu Xian watched her enter the ship island, he casually asked the engine attendant: "What's your name?"

"Huh? Who? Oh, she! Qin Qing! How about it, what a good name, it sounds so nice!" The maintenance staff grinned from ear to ear, looking very convinced by the title of Hainan Airlines Flower.

"Qin Qing?" Xu Xian smacked his lips: "It does sound very delicate..."

...

In the captain's room, captain Wang Tianyi and captain Xiao Nian of the carrier-based air wing both looked at Qin Qing in shock. Wang Tianyi frowned: "You mean another rebellion broke out over Chen Yanguo's side?"

?”

This word "you" seems very essential.

"That's right, at least that's what I observed visually." Qin Qing nodded and said solemnly.

Xiao Nian, captain of the Carrier Aircraft Wing, said helplessly: "Few of these small countries in the south can live in peace. How many years has it been since the last regime change? Problems are starting to happen again. In addition, I heard from Xi Kong that,

The Gongbang Kingdom in the southwest is also in chaos right now, and it’s really hard to live in peace around our borders.”

"How they mess up is other people's internal affairs, just don't affect our people. The Gongbang country is okay, but the position of Chenyan country is more sensitive. We have a trade artery but it is right next to Chenyan country. If Chenyan country

The country has started civil strife again, and it is impossible to say that it will affect this sea route." Wang Tianyi's face also looked unhappy.

To be honest, there are so many countries in the world, and turmoil occurs in many places. Chen Yanguo has nothing to do with the country, so he is definitely not an ally. Wang Tianyi is not the kind of person who has a mother's heart and thinks about world peace all day long. He is a soldier,

He always thinks about the interests of his country.

He has no interest at all in whether Chenyan State is in chaos or not. However, Chenyan State's location is rather critical, being near an international waterway, and in this waterway, domestic trade accounts for the lion's share. If Chenyan's civil strife affects

When it reaches this international waterway, it will be a strong blow to domestic international trade, which will cause huge damage to national interests.

Then this is what Wang Tianyi cannot accept!

"What was the specific situation at that time?" Wang Tianyi asked Qin Qingdao.

"It's two...it should be destroyers fighting. They are not in the territorial waters of Chen Yanguo, but on the high seas." Qin Qing said calmly: "My idea at the time was to prepare for a close observation, but it was an accident.
To be continued...
