Chapter 119; Cricket Trainer thanks for the reward

When Liu Qin heard Liu Xiu ask this, he smiled and said:

"Didn't you see all this! Of course, this has just been created and has not been tested by heaven, so I don't know if it can be done!"

When Liu Xiu heard what Liu Qin said, he immediately volunteered and said:

"Dad, let me fly this plane for the first time! Once I get familiar with it, I can make some to arm-wrestle with the kid's plane!"

But Liu Xiu's words made Liu Qin shake his head and said:

"You'd better forget it! Do you know that the horsepower of the little devil's fighter planes is more than 900 horsepower now! How can we compete with the little devil when our aircraft, which is modified from two motorcycle engines, has a total horsepower of less than 60 horsepower? The plane is used for air combat, I think you are just delivering food to the kid’s plane! The reason why I got this plane is actually because I want to use it as a training aircraft to train our pilots!"

Liu Xiu heard Liu Qin's words, and then looked at the fuselage, which was almost entirely made of wood, and understood that Liu Qin's words were not false. Of course, Liu Xiu also understood that although his father was powerful, he was also a clever woman who could not make a meal without rice. !

Although the arsenals of the Eighth Route Army can now make guns and cannons, it is still very difficult to make aircraft engines, even if they are just piston engines. Because of this, Liu Qin can only use two motorcycles. The engine was used to make do with such a small aircraft for the Eighth Route Army training pilots to practice their skills.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiu nodded and said:

"Dad, you have a good idea. This way, after I go to Taiyuan and seize the kid's plane, we won't have to worry about no one returning to fly the plane!"

However, as soon as Liu Qin's father heard what Liu Xiu said, he immediately asked in confusion:

"Are you going to Taiyuan?"

"Yes! I'm going to Taiyuan. After successfully capturing Ping'an County a few days ago, the superiors promoted me and made me the leader of the new third regiment to open up a new base area in Taiyuan. There is still a Taiyuan Airport over there!"

Liu Qin had no objection to Liu Xiu's intention to fly the Tiyuan Airport, but he was a little worried about Liu Xiu's intention to fly the plane he had just built:

"It's better for me to do it myself! You don't know much about this airplane. If you break the airplane, it's your fault!"

However, Liu Xiu was not willing to let his father fly, so he immediately said:

"Dad, how can you compare with me with your old arms and legs! I'm not that easy to break! I'm a martial arts expert now, a hero, and a Shaolin apprentice. If you don't believe me, I'll show it to you!"

Liu Xiu said that without waiting for Liu Qing's response, he ran to a nearby tree that was about 20 meters high. Then he jumped to a height of more than five meters. Then he reached out and grabbed the trunk of the tree, and climbed up with a few brushes. Arriving at the tree crown, Liu Qin jumped down from the tree crown at a height of about 20 meters without waiting for Liu Qin to react. After landing, he rolled and stood up easily, patted the dust on his body and said to Liu Qin:

"Dad, I didn't lie to you! Now I can fly over walls easily! Just like what is described in martial arts novels!"

However, Liu Xiu looked at Liu Qin still hesitantly and immediately picked up an egg-sized stone from the ground. Then An Jin moved, and the stone was immediately turned into gravel powder by Liu Xiu's An Jin!

When Liu Qin saw this, he finally relaxed and said:

"Okay! Let's let you be the first to test fly this plane! Come and let me tell you how to fly this plane!"

Liu Xiu also followed Liu Qin to the wooden plane and began to listen to Liu Qin's explanation.

Although most of the aircraft was made of wooden structure, Liu Xiu did not feel like it was disintegrating in the air. After all, during World War I, most aircraft were made of wooden structure, unlike during World War II when they were basically made of wood. They are all in the form of aluminum skin plus steel frame structure.

Therefore, Liu Xiu naturally understood the reason why Liu Qin just said that there was no way to fight with the current aircraft in the air.

The horsepower is too small and the speed is not enough. Although it has not yet been flown on a plane, it is difficult to estimate a speed of 400 kilometers per hour based on the fact that the two engines do not have 60 horsepower combined. Of course, if faced with fighter planes from the First World War, the aircraft Liu Qin built might still have the power to fight.

However, it is not impossible to use individual defense and control missiles such as the Eighth Route Stinger. Of course, this is obviously impossible.

Just when Liu Xiu was thinking wildly, Liu Qin had already begun to introduce.

"Xiu'er, I know you can drive and you have also captured a tank. You must be familiar with tanks. However, flying a plane is different from driving a car. It is not driving on the ground, so what you need to pay attention to is no longer the left, right, and front. , when flying in the sky, you need to pay attention to six directions: front, back, up, down, left, and right. Come and see here."

As he spoke, Liu Qin pointed at the tail of the plane and continued:

"The two movable wooden boards at the tail of the aircraft are used to control the up, down, left and right sides of the aircraft fuselage. The vertical wooden board controls the aircraft to fly left or right, while the horizontal wooden board controls the aircraft's flight. The nose of the plane is up or down! Come to the cockpit and I'll show you how they move."

Following Liu Qin's words, Liu Xiu also followed Liu Qin and climbed into the cockpit of the aircraft. Looking at the all-wooden fuselage, Liu Xiu was very careful for fear of accidentally trampling it to pieces.

Of course, although this plane looks very similar to the Cricket plane, it is actually very different. For example, this plane has no glass door and no windshield, so it faces the wind directly!

There was nothing in the cockpit, such as the engine speedometer, fuel gauge, and other indicators. They were all empty and clean.

Of course, the first thing that caught his eye was the control stick standing in front of him. Just like the flight driving videos Liu Xiu had seen, the flight control stick was standing upright in front of the pilot's seat.

At this time, Liu Qin pointed at the control lever and said to Liu Xiu:

"Did you see this is the control stick? This is the main control stick of this aircraft. It can be moved forward or backward! In addition, it can also be moved left or right!"

As Liu Qin spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled it back and forth twice, then pointed at the tail of the plane and said:

"Did you see that the horizontal wooden board moved?"

Liu Xiu couldn't help but ask after hearing this:

"Dad, does the control stick move left and right to make the vertical wooden board at the tail of the plane move left and right?"

Regarding Liu Xiu's question, Liu Qin shook his head and said:

"Of course not. Have you seen the long wooden boards behind the tail on both sides of the wing? Pulling left and right actually controls the up and down of these two wooden boards, and the wooden boards on these two sides are exactly opposite. For example, if you move towards Pull the control stick to the left, and the wooden board on the left wing will press down, while the wooden board on the right wing will rise up, so that you will fall into a sideways roll when flying in the air!"

Liu Qin's words made Liu Xiu a little confused, because he had always thought that the aircraft's control stick controlled the left, right, up and down of the aircraft! I didn’t expect it to be the case!
