Chapter 55: Student Practical Flying Competition
With the application in his hand, Qin Xiao's hands were shaking with excitement.
Even more exciting than holding a first-class merit medal.
Of course, this is also because the two represent different meanings.
The First Class Medal of Merit represents honor and is a recognition of him by the alliance.
But letting go is different, it is a strong expression of his flying skills.
Every Air Force pilot dreams of flying the alliance's most advanced fighter jets, and what they most look forward to most is undoubtedly flying solo.
The entire fighter plane is completely controlled by yourself.
This is a completely different sense than having an instructor sitting in the back cabin.
Flying solo means that a pilot, from a rookie to an entry-level pilot, can perform a single flight mission alone.
"Having been released for more than two months, do you know what this means?" Lin Shun's face was solemn as never before.
Letting go is like a child growing up to eighteen years old. He is already an adult and can make decisions by himself without asking his family for many things.
His eyes reluctantly moved away from the application form.
Looking up, Qin Xiao had doubts on his face.
Lin Shun looked at Qin Dao and continued: "It represents a record, a record that no one can break in a short time, or even in decades. Before you, the fastest record from contact flight to single release It took nearly two years, even if it was a world record."
Qin Xiao was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "Instructor Lin, you know, my situation is quite special."
Lin Shun shook his head: "Excellence is excellence. You don't have to belittle yourself on this point. There are so many people in special circumstances. How come no one goes solo after more than two months?"
"Qin Dao, I don't want to speculate too much on your other identity, but one thing you need to know is that as an air force pilot, you must not only face your own shortcomings, but also see your outstanding points. You Qin Xiao Being good enough, there is no need to be humble, being proud but not arrogant is a trait that every pilot should have."
"Dongshen is a land of etiquette, and it values modesty and courtesy, but..."
At this point, Lin Shun's voice suddenly became louder: "But as a soldier and an air force pilot, you have to fight for many things, let alone, fly the X-16 fighter
Even flying the J-20 fighter jet, if you don’t fight for it, no one will take the initiative to give you these. If you don’t have good enough flying skills, these special situations will not happen to you. 11
"Yes, instructor, I understand!" Qin Dao saluted with a military salute.
He knew that this was Lin Shun's last lesson as an instructor.
He has gone on to fly solo and is no longer the rookie who needs to be taken care of.
"but......"
"Before you can actually fly solo, I have to take you to do one more thing."
“Wilderness survival and firearms training.
"As a pilot, you need to know not only the flying skills, but also the more important survivability. No one dares to say that as a pilot, there will be no crisis or the need to parachute. , there will never be a time when firearms are needed.”
"Even though there are definitely not many situations where firearms are used, or even very few, some skills must be mastered and must be mastered."
Lin Shun's seriousness was beyond Qin Dao's expectation.
But he didn't refute anything.
He has already started his solo career, which is good, but when it comes to actual combat experience, he is still very different from Lin Shun.
Practical experience is not just a matter of talent, but also requires time to accumulate.
The news that Qin Xiao’s application for solo career was approved soon spread in the college.
For students who have not yet embarked on a solo career, it is a huge blow.
Even students who have gone solo are still a little frustrated.
The gap is too big.
How long did it take for them to go solo?
The minimum was three years, and the longest was nearly four years. Compared with Qin Xiao's more than two months, it was like clouds and mud.
Qin Xiao didn't care what other people thought or said. For several days, Qin Xiao was training endlessly.
day to day.
What is missing, what,
Bad supplement.
For others, this kind of supplement would be tantamount to improvising. Even before, Lin Shun had this idea.
But after seeing Qin Xiao's performance, he really felt a little bit bitter.
Survival in the wild is not bad. Qin Dao's performance cannot be said to be excellent, but it is definitely not bad, and he is average.
But when it comes to firearms training, Qin Xiao is like a fool. No matter what kind of firearm, Qin Xiao can become proficient in it in less than ten minutes and be able to kill him in half a day.
Pistols, rifles, machine guns, sniper battles, even heavy sniping, nothing can stump Qin Dao.
With these firearms, no firearms genius would be able to hit the mark without ten days and a half months, and without thousands or even tens of thousands of bullets.
But Qin Xiao did it.
It only took half an hour for each type of firearm to hit the center with extreme accuracy.
It's hard to explain Qin Xiao's performance with firearms even if he's possessed by the God of Guns.
However, Qin Xiao was not too surprised by this.
Firearms are also machines, just small machines. The bonus brought by [Mechanical Affinity] is the key to Qin Xiao becoming a gun master in a very short time.
In Lin Shun's opinion, the only thing Qin Dao lacks now is experience.
Training day after day.
Every day life revolves around training Erchen.
Qin Xiao is different from other students. Other students basically eat from the same big pot and follow a unified training system.
Qin Xiao is a student of the independent training system. Students like him cannot follow the conventional training system.
On the one hand, Qin Xiao's superior performance will destroy the confidence of other students; on the other hand, using the conventional training system is a waste of Qin Xiao's talent.
Not to mention firearms and wilderness survival training.
As far as flying is concerned, the average student, even if he flies solo, can only fly for half an hour of flight training in a day.
But Qin Xiao was different. What he enjoyed completely exceeded the two hours of flight training he could enjoy, but reached an extraordinary time flight of 4-5 hours.
Ordinary people don't know what this number means, but pilots do.
For a normal academy pilot, three hours of flying time per week is considered good. To reach the hard target of 100 hours of flying, it will take thirty weeks. Excluding other training time, it may not be achieved in one year.
In the college's graduation assessment, solo flight time is a rigid standard. If you fail to meet it, you will not be able to graduate, no matter how good you are. If you fail to graduate, you will not be assigned to the air force base.
This is unacceptable to any pilot.
But Qin Xiao is different. He can achieve the flight time of others in one day, or even double the flight time of others in one week.
To reach the rigid standard of 100 hours, it can take as little as twenty days.
This speed is like riding a rocket.
Time gradually passed, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The end of the year is approaching, and the Spring Festival, which is extremely important for the entire Dongshen, is approaching.
However, for soldiers, there is no difference whether it is the Spring Festival or normal times.
The training should be done, and what should be done should be done.
…Please give me flowers…
In the firearms training room, Lin Shun gave Qin Xiao a thumbs up: "Well done. In three days, I was completely familiar with all types of firearms. Although I still have insufficient experience in survival in the wild, given the current situation, it is unlikely that I will go out to fight. It's okay, but training in this area will still need to be carried out frequently in the future. Make up for any deficiencies, even if you may never need this skill.
Qin Xiao nodded: "I took note of it!"
Lin Shun might still be suspicious when others say this, but Qin Xiao is different. He will definitely do what he says.
Qin Xiao was able to achieve such an achievement in two months because of his natural talent and immersive training.
He knows exactly what he lacks and what he needs to train for.
"I won't say much else. Go to bed early tonight. Your performance on your solo flight tomorrow will mean whether you can participate in the graduation assessment over time."
Final exam!
The final assessment for space pilots to be assigned to air force bases. As long as they pass this assessment, they will be awarded the title, register the pilot information, and be assigned to various space bases soon.
In terms of importance, tomorrow's solo flight is very important. If something goes wrong, the flight may be grounded.
Grounding is unacceptable to any pilot.
Qin Xiao nodded, showing stronger importance than before.
"I don't have high requirements for tomorrow's solo flight. I know your flying skills are very high, but don't fly randomly. Just complete the basic movements and maneuvers that should be completed, and return along the route."
"Remember, stability is the priority."
Qin Xiao nodded solemnly. There was no special situation and he had no intention of showing off.
While Lin Shun was instructing Qin Xiao to pay attention to her solo career, Xiao Wanjun was presiding over an important meeting.
content of the meeting.
Academy practical flight competition.
Xiao Wanjun was sitting in the first seat, and below him were all the leaders of the college and the heads of important departments of the college.
When everyone came together, Xiao Wanjun's military style was fully displayed. Without too much nonsense or opening remarks, he went straight to the topic: "You have seen the documents in front of you.
The academy's actual flight competition is very important to our academy. The performance of the students in this flight competition also means the funds and other permissions that the academy will receive next year.
"This flight competition is different from the past. This time, it pays more attention to actual combat."
"Most of the past flight competitions involved flying according to a predetermined route and individual performances, with each of these two accounting for half of the score.
"B..."
Xiao Wanjun's tone became much heavier and more serious, and his tone dropped slightly: "But this time, a practical component has been added. The practical component directly accounts for 70%, and fixed route flying and personal performance each account for 15%."
"The proportion of actual combat is so high?" Qian Jiaguo swallowed.
"right."
Xiao Wanjun said solemnly: "And the actual combat is also divided into individual battles and melees. Points are awarded based on ranking and shooting down. The person who survives to the end will directly add 50 points. In addition, each fighter shot down will add 10 points. There is no upper limit. In the end, the academy The participating students will be ranked based on their total scores.”
"Judging from this actual flight competition, the actual requirements for students are getting higher and higher. In this flight competition, the academy's goal is to compete for the first place in the top three, and it is best to win the first place. ."
"The next step is to select the contestants. The five contestants must be selected within seven days. Once they are selected, they will immediately enter actual combat training. Even if they are crammed temporarily, they must be hugged harder and tighter."
"How to select participating students, Lao Qian, please come up with a plan."
"Others work with old money."
"That's it, neck.
