Bei Haiyang finally came to the management scope of Chief Instructor Joseph and arranged the process of taking to the sky and flying.
In fact, at this stage, it has basically been determined who will eventually obtain the qualification and who will not; those who are strong and the most powerful have now begun to fly solo, and those like Bei Haiyang who are just preparing to follow the plane are basically out of the question.
.
He needs to fly with him 2 or 3 times, and then fly solo at least several times under the guidance of the instructor before he can perfectly complete the operation of entering and exiting the atmosphere! Such a process cannot be completed in 20 days!
Joseph smiled coldly, Chinese people want to get one more spot ahead of the United States? Don’t even think about it!
He didn't want any accidents to happen, so he would still restrict the Chinese within his own capabilities when flying with the plane!
There are four training space passenger planes in the base, one flight a day and used in turn! One of them is specially flown by instructors to lead students to experience the process of entering and exiting the atmosphere, and the other three are used for solo flights.
Each space passenger plane can carry 2 students in the cockpit, and there are now more than 20 students at this stage. In other words, if the schedule is arranged step by step, it is normal to rotate once every ten days.
There are 20 days left, maximum 2 times, if targeted, 1 time is possible!
Joseph smiled playfully, "Yes, you worked very hard. I heard that you beat those students really hard? But if you behave like this, there will be side effects. I would like to arrange a time for you to get on the machine right away, but you need to be in the queue.
The people in front discussed it, and the result was that none of the people who were beaten agreed.
I have done my best as an instructor. Your situation was caused by yourself, so you can't blame others."
Bei Haiyang shook his head and turned to leave, "I finally understand why the United States is declining more and more. With all due respect, you have lost your self-confidence and have fallen to the point where you have to rely on small actions to satisfy your vanity..."
He won't beg, and it's useless to beg; he won't go to Abdullah, even if he just needs to make a phone call, the matter will be solved perfectly... This is not his style, as a pilot, no matter what
Whether inside or outside the atmosphere, he must solve the problem on his own.
This is a habit that must be adhered to, because in the air, it is useless to call anyone!
Three days later, Ito successfully reached the last step after he taught him two tricks on how to use mental power to extract planetary energy, but he knew very well that he had no hope at all!
"Very depressed?" Bei Haiyang saw that his mood was not very high.
Ito smiled bitterly, "I believe that as long as you give me a little more time, maybe half a year or a year, I will definitely be able to get this qualification! But it's not possible now. My mental strength is a shortcoming, and this cannot be improved in a short time!"
Bei Haiyang decided to be honest, "Have you ever thought about coming here to help me? This way you don't have to look at the instructors' faces at the base. You have the opportunity to fly in space every day, which is very helpful for improving your mental strength."
!”
Hope rose on Ito's face, "Of course I hope so! And I also know that the reason why the company sent me is that if Itada fails, I can continue to be your co-pilot... But, are you sure? Although I
I believe in your ability, but the key thing now is that you don’t have a chance to get on the plane! How about we give Abdullah a call?”
Bei Haiyang shook his head, "Keep that business card at the bottom of the box forever! Never call such a person!"
If you fight, you will have to sell yourself to him sooner or later! If you don’t fight, he will never have a chance to open his mouth!"
I changed my posture uncomfortably. It was really uncomfortable not having a chair in the room, but the islanders are very adaptable to this.
"As for whether I can pass, that's my business, you don't have to worry about it."
...As the two of them expected, Ito got on the plane one day earlier than Bei Haiyang, and Bei Haiyang only got the opportunity to experience the plane on the 11th day. He knew very well that there were 9 days left, and this was
His only chance.
Early in the morning, he and another student got ready. This guy was severely beaten by him in the rugby game, so he ignored him throughout the whole process, which made Bei Haiyang chuckle inwardly.
A person without a city is not worth mentioning.
The modified 959 cockpit and the overall instrument panel have not changed much. If this needs to be changed, it would be easier to redesign the aircraft.
These systems are still prepared for intra-atmospheric flight, so they are no different from ordinary passenger aircraft.
The most important changes are in two aspects. One is the pilot's seat. The material is changed into a special material that can increase mental power. It is set up on the keel on the central axis of the entire body. This keel is also made entirely of special materials.
When the pilot enters and exits the atmosphere, he must rely on the increase in mental power of this keel to complete the transfer of planetary energy, which is equivalent to the second set of engines of the aircraft.
This set of engines is not enough to lift a huge fuselage of several hundred tons in the atmosphere, so it mainly relies on traditional power in the atmosphere.
Another biggest change is that the cabin has been turned into a huge health cabin. In order to ensure sufficient oxygen after entering space, its sealing has been greatly enhanced.
This is a tedious and complicated project, which also adds dozens of tons of weight to the engine room.
But there are also areas for weight reduction. For example, airplanes no longer need to carry dozens or hundreds of tons of fuel to the sky. The amount of fuel only needs to be ensured to drop at once. When the airplane enters space, the power will be provided by the pilot using planetary energy. That is
Inexhaustible energy.
Judging from the internal structure and cabin layout, the passenger capacity of the modified 959 will be greatly reduced. The original passenger capacity of nearly 500 people is now reduced to less than 100. This is the result of countless trade-offs.
Including the consumption of oxygen by the number of people, the ability to fly higher with a light load, and a lot of troubles in cabin management; it is hard to imagine that if you go to space, more than 500 people will be weightless and floating in the cabin, plus the incomparable trouble of going to the bathroom.
For the process, one hundred people is the upper limit, no more.
The cockpit and the cabin are not the same health system. They need to be stricter, higher-level, and more protective. They are the same as the battle fortress. They are also afraid of encountering danger in space. If something goes wrong with the pilot, everything will be over.
.
The instructor for this flight was Tristan, and his co-pilot was Kirk. They were both experienced veterans. The only obstacle that prevented them from becoming the first batch of space pilots was that they had no experience in civil aviation. They took off and landed at a fixed desert airport and faced many challenges.
Taking off and landing under complex conditions at different airports around the world are not the same thing.
But this situation may also change. They will not be the first batch, but they may also become the second batch, the third batch... It depends on how well the first batch of space pilots fly after the real route is opened.

We are all trying to cross the river by feeling the stones, and we don't dare to let go too easily.
