Legendary Captain

Instructors who can lead simulator training are at least at the Class B level; they are all seasoned veterans, so how could they not know the ins and outs? It's just that Lu Xinyu, a young man who has had a smooth life, hasn't quite grasped the situation yet.

Even with a tight schedule, the initial modification plan will take at least a month.

Why not just switch to regular flights for a month and earn tens of thousands of dollars? Why insist on working yourself to the bone with simulators, only to earn less money in the end!

It's one thing to have little money, but facing Lian Shanxue, you probably can't even say a harsh word. Being treated like a grandson for a month is a really unpleasant experience.

They had no money and had to be subservient. Any teacher with a normal IQ would know how to choose, which is why no one was willing to take on the initial modification of Lianshan Snow.

Actually, there was another reason that Cao Jinwen didn't mention... that is, Lu Xinyu couldn't control these seasoned instructors.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly kind-hearted appearance of Lin Bo, the current general manager of the flight department. Just two years ago, he was the undisputed leader of the flight department.

If this had happened two years ago, and Lin Bo had called any of the instructors, Cao Jinwen estimated that none of them would have dared to play tricks.

As an instructor, how dare you be so picky? How dare you play dumb with your superiors? You'll be in big trouble!

However, Lin Bo is about to retire in a couple of years. As he gets older, his temper has become better and better. He hardly cares about anything anymore and is just waiting to retire.

Without Lin Bo keeping them in check, the instructors started to get restless. Judging from this incident alone, Lu Xinyu still suffered from a lack of seniority.

Those instructors, especially the older ones, valued seniority highly. What right did this young upstart, Lu Xinyu, have to act so arrogantly towards them?

It is precisely for this reason that the higher-ups have been slow to promote Lu Xinyu to a permanent position.

To be honest, compared to Lu Xinyu, Qin Zongyang is utterly worthless, both in terms of professional skills and character. However, Qin Zongyang only benefits from his seniority; otherwise, he would have been excluded from the candidate list for General Manager of the Flight Department long ago.

Although Qin Zongyang had a bad reputation in the flight department, it was mostly limited to trainees or co-pilots. At the instructor level, they still preferred Qin Zongyang to be the head of the flight department.

At first, Cao Jinwen thought the higher-ups were overthinking things. Lu Xinyu's resume was almost perfect; in this day and age, seniority wasn't that important. However, reality slapped Cao Jinwen hard in the face.

It seems that Lu Xinyu really can't control those old hands in the flight department, and this may be Qin Zongyang's only chance.

Of course, these words couldn't be said to Lu Xinyu; they had to be kept to oneself.

In fact, Lu Xinyu was well aware of the awkward situation he was in. He came to Cao Jinwen's office hoping that Cao Jinwen would step in and resolve the matter. After all, as the flight squadron leader, Cao Jinwen dealt directly with the pilots and had considerable experience, so the chances of him handling the matter were not small.

Before listening to Cao Jinwen's analysis, Lu Xinyu had planned to let Cao Jinwen get involved in the matter, but now his thoughts have changed.

"Then let's find a full-time instructor." Lu Xinyu stood up, said this, and prepared to leave.

Lu Xinyu, who had just rushed over in a flurry, actually gave in so easily?

Seeing that Lu Xinyu was already at the door, Cao Jinwen hurriedly asked, "President Lu, it must be difficult to explain to the higher-ups that we've arranged a full-time tutor for Lian Shanxue."

So-called full-time instructors are those who only fly simulators and not in-flight flights. Most of these full-time instructors are retired instructors who can no longer fly in-flight flights, whether they are restless or want to earn some extra money, they focus on teaching simulators.

These instructors are paid to do things and don't have much involvement with the airlines, so they don't care who Lian Shanxue is.

Full-time instructors are great in every way, except they're irresponsible. To be precise, it's not that they're irresponsible, but they give off a "clock out" vibe, and what they teach is all superficial stuff.

Normal people would think the same way: it's all the same amount of money anyway. Going into too much detail would be time-consuming and laborious, and it's still the same amount of money. It's not like they're my apprentices, or even from my company, so why should I work for love?

Therefore, it's very rare to see a flight instructor as a full-time instructor, mainly because the company also needs to be responsible for its own pilots. It would be one thing if a regular pilot was a full-time instructor, but is Lian Shanxue a regular pilot? Can they be compared?

"If our company can't accommodate all the instructors, isn't it standard practice to assign a full-time instructor?" Lu Xinyu stopped, turned around, and said to Cao Jinwen.

Cao Jinwen: "But... that's snow from the Lianshan Mountains!"

"But she is also a member of the flight department. As long as you are in the flight department, you have to follow my orders," Lu Xinyu said firmly.

Cao Jinwen was speechless. Lian Shanxue was never the problem; the problem had always been the president who personally recruited her! He didn't believe Lu Xinyu was unaware of this.

After speaking, Lu Xinyu rubbed the back of his neck, his mind a jumble of thoughts. Compared to the visionary president, the seasoned instructors in the flight department seemed much more difficult to deal with. Moreover, these veterans were naturally inclined to stick together and were the backbone of the company's transportation capacity. Even the proud Lu Xinyu didn't want to clash head-on with the instructor group at this time.

I thought I was special, but I didn't expect that after entering the management team, I would still have to make compromises against my will.

However, whether it's an instructor from our company or a full-time instructor, the final result is the same.

......

After a close call with the simulator inspection, Xu Xian finally had two days of peace and quiet, and settled down to work and earn money.

Star Travel Airlines releases its flight schedules weekly, and the day Xu Xian finished his simulator check was the day the flight schedule was released. So, at the earliest, Xu Xian would have to wait a week to get a flight schedule.

This week, Xu Xian finally didn't have to worry about those messy things and could finally get some rest.

Of course, for Xu Xian, who has an insatiable thirst for money, rest time means money-making time. Previously, Xu Xian only worked the night shift, but now he works both the day and night shifts together – double pay, double the happiness!

Around 2 PM, the number of customers at the restaurant began to decrease sharply, and the restaurant staff began to eat in shifts.

Xu Xian works at a fast-food restaurant. He ordered a chicken cutlet and ate outside. He had been cooped up indoors for most of the day, and his nostrils were filled with the smell of fried food. When it was his turn to eat, he still wanted to come out for some fresh air.

Yunnan Province has a high altitude and very strong ultraviolet radiation. Neither Xu Xian's hometown in Shandong Province nor Jiangnan Province, where he had lived for a long time, has a high altitude, so he couldn't stand the strong ultraviolet radiation and even found a parasol to shield himself from the sun.

He's also a delicate little piggy boy...

Xu Xian started stretching halfway through his meal, his eyes involuntarily squinting. Suddenly, the last glimmer of light vanished, and an old face appeared before Xu Xian's eyes.

"Excuse me, are you Xu Xian?"
