You were asked to repeat your senior year of high school, and you took advantage of the opportunity

Chapter 479: The test pilot of the FC-31 Falcon is actually a college student?

The weather is nice today.

Early in the morning.

The test flight team began the intensive test flight mission.

In recent years, Dongda Aerospace Science and Technology seems to have received "guidance" from Zenith.

Therefore, not only are various new aircraft models popping up like mushrooms after a rain, but various airborne equipment are also constantly being updated.

For example, the engine problem that has been plaguing the East China University of Technology Air Force.

Breakthrough progress has also been made in recent years.

If the airplane is a person, then the engine is the big heart.

If the engine problem cannot be solved.

The University of Tokyo will be strangled by others for the rest of its life.

But in recent years.

As the performance of the WS-10 turbofan series engines matures, more advanced engines such as the WS-12, WS-15, and WS-18 have also been developed.

The 'big heart' problem that has troubled the East China University of Technology's Air Force has also been slowly solved.

As for airborne radar, avionics systems, airborne weapons and so on.

The problem was gradually solved.

some of.

The test flight squadron plays an irreplaceable role.

Because whether it is testing new aircraft models or testing these new equipment, the test flight team needs to personally fly the aircraft into the blue sky and record the data~~~
There is no test flight team that risks their lives day after day to carry out test flight work.

There would be no breakthrough in Dongda’s aerospace technology.

It's past ten in the morning.

A J-10C fighter jet slowly landed on the runway.

Not a moment later.

The J-10C fighter jet equipped with a new engine has slowly slid onto the apron.

However, the first people to greet us were not the ground crew.

Instead, there were several scientists in scientific research uniforms.

Without waiting for the pilot to jump out of the cockpit, these scientists had already reached the tail of the plane and began to observe the nozzle themselves.

As the canopy slowly opened.

The ground staff then came over with the boarding ladder.

A pilot in his forties, wearing two-bar and three-star shoulder straps and with the rank of colonel, jumped out of the plane.

He first exchanged a few words with the scientists.

Then he took the flight helmet and slowly walked towards the flight briefing room not far away.

"Captain~~~"

Before the colonel pilot entered the flight briefing room, a major hurried towards him.

The colonel pilot immediately stopped and turned to look at the major.

"what's up?"

He asked in a deep voice only after the other party came closer.

The major first saluted.

Then he hurriedly said, "Shenfei has already delivered the prototype of the FC-31 Falcon. You may need to go there in person to inspect and sign for it!"

The colonel pilot heard it.

He didn't even have time to take off his anti-gravity suit.

Instead, he took his flight helmet and hurried to the permanent hangar with the major.

Not a moment later.

The two men came to the Yongbei hangar.

Although this is already inside the airport, security is very tight.

But when the two men rushed over, there was already a guard post every three steps and a sentry every two steps in the Yongbei hangar.

It looks like a no-entry zone.

And at the door of the Yongbei hangar, there was a heavy truck parked.

Inside the truck's cabin was an aircraft of unknown model that was covered tightly with camouflage cloth.

However, you can easily guess that this camouflaged aircraft is of course the FC-31 Falcon fighter jet that is being tested by the test flight squadron.

really.

When the colonel pilot arrived.

A middle-aged man wearing an air force training uniform and also holding the rank of colonel came over immediately, stretched out his right hand and said with a smile, "Captain Qin, we are counting on you to take care of this precious child of Shen Fei for the time being."

The colonel pilot shook the other party's extended hand.

Then he looked at the plane in the truck compartment with curiosity and asked, "Is this the FC-31 Falcon?"

"Yes, this thing is very valuable. Although Fengtian is only more than a thousand kilometers away from you, do you know how long it took me to get there? It took me eleven days, brother. I was so exhausted during these days." said the colonel.

really.

Although the voice is loud.

But his face was full of fatigue and his eyes were bloodshot.

It's obvious that he hasn't had enough rest these days.

Captain Qin nodded slightly, then said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Since the plane has already arrived, you should go and have a good rest and sleep. I will welcome you when you wake up at night."

"Okay." The other party did not say anything polite but nodded heavily.

Captain Qin cast his curious eyes towards the FC-31 Falcon in the truck compartment, his eyes full of yearning, and said, "To be honest, I am quite interested in this FC-31 Falcon of your Shenfei. If it weren't for the order from the Air Force Headquarters, I would have transported this thing to the apron today to try it out."

The other party knew that Captain Qin was a 'machine idiot'.

Particularly obsessed with various new models of fighter jets.

Although the FC-31 Falcon was not favored by the Dongda Air Force, it is still developed by Shenfei with its own funds.

But Captain Qin still believes in Shen Fei's strength.

The reason why the Air Force did not purchase the FC-31 Falcon is not because this aircraft is not good, but because there is no demand for it for the time being.

"It's okay~~~ When the time comes, you can fly a few times secretly and we will pretend we can't see you." The middle-aged colonel said with a smile.

Captain Qin did not respond.

But look at his face full of excitement.

Obviously he had taken the other person's words to heart.

"correct."

Captain Qin suddenly asked, "Have you found the test pilots you were looking for? Do you want me to recommend a few to you?"

"Found it." The middle-aged colonel replied immediately.

Captain Qin heard it.

There was a hint of surprise on his face.

It is no secret that Shenfei is looking for suitable test pilots everywhere.

But Shen Fei had been searching for half a year and there had been no progress.

Therefore, the test flight of the FC-31 Falcon was temporarily shelved.

I didn't expect it's only been a few days.

Shen Fei actually found a test pilot.

"Oh, which unit are you from? Have you ever received the 'Golden Helmet' and 'Golden Dart'?" Captain Qin asked curiously.

The other person shook his head and said with a smile, "You'll be scared to death if I tell you."

"Hmm?" Captain Qin frowned slightly.

I've seen all kinds of storms and waves.

Would I still be scared by you?
"Stop keeping us in suspense and tell me~~~" he scolded with a smile.

"The test pilot we found this time didn't get the 'Golden Helmet' and 'Golden Dart', and he hasn't even been assigned to the army yet. He is still a student at the Air Force University." The middle-aged colonel said with a smile.

Captain Qin heard it.

His face was suddenly full of surprise.

He looked at the other person seriously and asked solemnly, "Hey, Chief Zhao, this kind of thing is not a joke."

Unexpectedly, the other party also stopped smiling.

He answered seriously, "How dare I joke about such a thing?"

"But don't underestimate this student. He is the test pilot personally selected by the deputy chief designer of our FC-31 Falcon project team. Moreover, his personal strength is not much worse than that of your soldiers."
