Chapter 1434 Young Eagle Spreads Its Wings
Quzhou Airport.
After putting down the phone, Zheng Shaoyu walked back to the command room excitedly.
Seeing Zheng Shaoyu answering the phone call, he became excited. Martins, Chennard, and several students from Kunming Aviation School immediately surrounded him.
Martins said: "Zheng, do you have any good news?"
"Yes." Zheng Shaoyu suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, "We are going to attack!"
"Oh!" When Martins heard Zheng Shaoyu say he was going to attack, he couldn't help but cheer, then turned around and slammed hard against Chennard, who was also cheering.
Martins' cheers are understandable, because attacking means having a chance to shoot down enemy planes.
Zhong Yi told him personally that he would reward them with 500 dollars for every enemy plane shot down!
God, one enemy plane is five hundred dollars, one hundred enemy planes is fifty thousand dollars!
If he saved up enough 50,000 US dollars, he could go back to the United States to buy a manor, and from then on he could become a comfortable farmer, and find a young and beautiful girl to be his wife.
Just thinking about it is exciting.
Of course, the target of shooting down a hundred enemy planes is a bit too far away.
But even if it is 5,000 US dollars, it is also extremely exciting.
Chennard's cheers were also from the heart, because his wolf pack tactics finally had the opportunity to practice on the battlefield. He urgently wanted to know whether the wolf pack tactics he had developed were effective?
As for the students of Kunming Aviation School, they are simply passionate and impulsive, simply wanting to use their passion and life to defend the blue sky of the motherland!
"Come on, everyone is here." Zheng Shaoyu waved his hand and signaled everyone to the flight map, and said, "Let's study the flight map again. This attack is a night flight, so the course must be as accurate as possible, otherwise even if it only deviates from a small grid, it may miss the target."
Because it is night, it is impossible to maintain formation through visual inspection.
In order to avoid collisions in the air, the distance between each aircraft must be set.
However, at this time, the fighter jets did not have an on-board radio and could not communicate, so it was difficult to correct the course between each other, so the pilot could only maintain the course.
Then at this time, the course becomes unusually important.
Only by maintaining the course can we ensure that we do not deviate too far.
Only when you deviate from the course and then turn dawn, you will have the opportunity to find your companions, then complete the formation in the air, and then bomb the target airport.
Anyone who deviates from the course will lose a little combat power.
"You must keep on air, you must keep on holding it, have you heard it?" Zheng Shaoyu repeatedly reminded.
The pilots who surrounded each other nodded with serious expressions, whether they were old birds like Chennard, Martins, or rookies from Kunming Aviation School like Zhang Fan.
"You will continue to exchange experience." Zheng Shaoyu reminded him, and then came to the ground staff's office. He repeatedly reminded the ground staff to maintain and maintain the fighter jets, and to fill up the aviation kerosene, ensure that the aircraft bombs are intact, and all components of the fighter jets, such as the engine and take-off and landing wheels, to ensure that the working conditions are good.
Feeling worried, Zheng Shaoyu went to the hangar to inspect it himself.
...
At 4:30 in the morning, the Quzhou Airport, which was originally silent, suddenly became busy.
First, the lights lit up on the tower, and then the sign lights on the runway also lit up one after another.
Then, the P-40 fighter jets taxied out from the hidden hangars on both sides of the airport, and entered the specially extended airport runway one after another, lined up to prepare for takeoff.
Then the ground crew conducted the final inspection before takeoff.
After about a quarter of an hour, the inspection is complete.
The ground crew knelt halfway and made a lifting gesture.
Martins drove the long plane and started skating first. After sliding for less than a hundred meters, he suddenly looked up and roared into the dark night sky, disappearing.
Next was the fighter jet flying by Chennard.
Then, fighter jets took off one by one.
By five in the morning, all 50 P-40 fighter jets had taken off the air and disappeared into the night.
This time has been calculated. The straight-line distance from Quzhou Airport to Hangzhou Xianqiao Airport is nearly 200 kilometers, and the flight time takes about 35 minutes.
The 50 fighter jets from the 1st Flight Brigade of the 1st Aviation Division set off from Quzhou Airport at 5 a.m. and flew around 5:30 when they arrived at the airspace near Hangzhou. At this time, the sky was just dawn.
At this time, it is difficult for people on the ground to find planes flying high.
However, the fighter jets at high altitude are already bathed in the sun and can start forming in the light.
After completing the formation, the flight altitude can be lowered and a sudden blow to Amaranth Airport will be carried out!
All 50 fighter planes took off, and the airport, which was originally noisy, suddenly fell silent. Zheng Shaoyu, who was standing in the tower command room, suddenly felt empty in his heart, as if he had lost his treasure.
I must come back, I will come back! Zheng Shaoyu said silently.
...
Zhang Fan flew steadily on the fighter plane and flew forward slowly according to the established course.
Zhang Fan was originally a college student at Southwest Associated University. When he was out for publicity, he accidentally encountered Kunming Aviation School recruiting the first phase of flight students, so he signed up without hesitation.
After passing the physical examination, Zhang Fan successfully entered the aviation school.
Then, with his outstanding psychological qualities, Zhang Fan stood out from the students.
There were more than 100 students in the first phase of Kunming Aviation School, but only Zhang Fan and two other students passed the assessment and obtained the qualification to take off separately.
The fighter plane was flying, and the surroundings were pitch black.
Zhang Fan could not feel the direction, the height, or even the time.
The whole world seemed to have stopped suddenly, and he was the only one person and one machine left in the world.
At this time, it is actually easy to have problems, and people with poor sense of space are likely to get lost.
However, Zhang Fan was not disturbed at all and flew smoothly according to the established route.
Time passed slowly as the boring pilot passed. At one moment, Zhang Fan raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and saw that the hour hand had pointed at 5:20.
The next moment, Zhang Fan turned his head and looked east.
Sure enough, a thin light of dawn had been revealed.
Then a ray of light came out of the clouds.
Then, Zhang Fan saw another p-40.
It was not far from his right rear, about five or six hundred meters away.
Zhang Fan pushed the joystick slightly and the landline immediately leaned over.
When the two aircraft were less than 100 meters apart, Zhang Fan transferred his head back, kept it parallel to his comrades, and pointed at his right thumb with his right hand to signal to his comrades.
The comrade also gave him a thumbs-up through the porthole.
It's similar to the Special Forces, their aviation team also has a simple sign language.
Before the onboard radio station, the air force communicated with each other in sign language.
