Chapter 132 Mosquito Transport Aircraft Test
Chapter 132 Mosquito Transport Aircraft Test
The next day, Huang Zhefu took the initiative to find Zhao Tianyang and wanted to start the test flight.
As a result, the weather was not good and it started to rain. There was nothing we could do but wait for the rain to stop, and this wait lasted for two full days.
Finally, on the third day, the weather was clear and cloudless.
"What a nice weather!"
Zhao Tianyang took a deep breath of the fresh air after the rain and said happily.
"Huangyadong, first test flight, the test begins!"
As soon as the words fell, groups of workers who came to watch the excitement immediately stood outside the runway and looked towards the cave with anticipation.
"Come out, come out!"
With an excited shout, Huang Zhefu slowly pushed the joystick between his legs, and the plane slowly headed towards the runway outside the cave.
"Remember, if the situation is not right, jump out of the plane. Our plane is worthless!"
Outside the cave, Zhao Tianyang gave Huang Zhefu instructions again.
“Huh…it’s coming!”
Huang Zhefu nodded to Zhao Tianyang, took a deep breath, pushed the joystick hard, and the plane began to accelerate.
Looking at the mechanical instrument panel in front of me, the plane's speed reached 200 kilometers per hour.
Huang Zhefu gradually pulled the joystick backwards to increase the plane's pitch angle. Slowly the pitch angle became larger and larger until the entire plane left the ground and flew into the sky.
"Let's fly!"
"Haha, it has to be our engine factory!"
As the plane took off, the workers cheered.
Among them, the employees of the engine factory were even more excited. They kept pulling their co-workers around them and boasting that this was made by them.
"Hurry up and turn on the radio!"
Zhao Tianyang came to where Liu Ding and others gathered and gave instructions.
"Yes!"
Cheng Mingsheng nodded and turned on the new generation radio in front of him.
This radio station was equipped with the triode that Cheng Mingsheng had just developed.
Increasing the communication distance from the original two kilometers to ten kilometers can be said to be a qualitative leap.
"Drip..."
"This is Huangya Cave. Please reply if you get it. Please reply if you get it."
In the sky, Huang Zhefu, who was flying at the lowest speed, was listening to the sound coming from the onboard radio.
He quickly took a small headset from the mechanical instrument, put it to his mouth and answered.
"This is Huang Zhefu. Everything went well on the flight. Please don't worry!"
"Great!"
Hearing Huang Zhefu's voice coming from the radio, Zhao Tianyang and others waved their hands excitedly.
"Hurry up and tell him to fly along the designated route and never fly to Jinzhong or Taiyuan, as there are Japanese airports there!"
After hearing Zhao Tianyang's instructions, Cheng Mingsheng picked up the headset and repeated his words.
A moment later, Huang Zhefu replied with an "I know" and the radio station fell completely silent.
"It must have flown out of the radio station's communication range."
Zhao Tianyang looked at Liu Ding, Liu Guifu and others and said, "Wait an hour, they should be back!"
"How do you know, Chief?"
Liu Ransheng asked curiously.
"Haha, just wait and see!"
Zhao Tianyang smiled and didn't explain.
Did he want to tell Liu Ransheng that, just in case, the fuel he put in the plane was only enough to fly for an hour and a half?
The maximum flight distance in an hour and a half is 500 kilometers, which is completely sufficient for the distance test. But if Huang Zhefu has other ideas, I am afraid he will end up with a plane crash!
.....................
“Oh my god, it actually worked smoothly!”
In the sky, after Huang Zhefu put down the headset, he felt the vibration of the joystick in his hand and felt a little incredible.
This aircraft was not tested in a wind tunnel, but was successfully launched into the air and operated smoothly based solely on paper data.
At this moment, Huang Zhefu was full of confidence in the future of the Eighth Route Army.
With the pervert Zhao Tianyang around, plus the Eighth Route Army's combat effectiveness and willpower, he couldn't imagine who would be their opponent in the future?
At this time, Huang Zhefu noticed that the oil gauge on the mechanical dial had only half of the oil left. Without thinking much, he turned the nose of the plane and flew back to Huangya Cave.
However, when he returned, Huang Zhefu's flying speed was much faster. Looking at the rising flight speed on the mechanical dial, Huang Zhesheng's heartbeat became faster and faster.
"Didi..."
"Is it Comrade Huang Zhefu?"
Hearing the voice from the radio, Huang Zhefu realized that they were about to reach Huangya Cave. He immediately reduced speed and began to slowly descend in altitude.
"This is Huang Zhefu, this is Huang Zhefu."
"Please clear the runway, I'm almost there!"
"Roger that!"
Cheng Mingsheng answered, immediately stood up, and began to clean up the scene with Liu Ding and others.
With the experience from last time, not only was no one allowed on the runway, they were not even allowed to stay outside the runway.
Everyone went up the mountain and stood on the hillside to look.
"coming!"
A sharp-eyed worker pointed to the sky and shouted.
A twin-engine plane slowly lowered its altitude and appeared in front of everyone.
It can be seen that Huang Zhefu's flying skills are much better than Zhao Tianyang's. The plane did not deviate at all and landed smoothly on the runway.
I don't know why, but the plane lowered to the right a little, but it quickly returned to normal.
"Go, meet our hero!"
As soon as the plane stopped, Zhao Tianyang rushed up with the workers, picked up Huang Zhefu who had just jumped out of the plane, and threw him into the air.
"Oh!"
"Oh!"
"Okay, okay, put me down now!"
Huang Zhefu shouted in panic, feeling a little uncomfortable with this kind of treatment.
"Alright, put Comrade Huang Zhefu down!"
Seeing this, Zhao Tianyang hurriedly gave orders.
"Chief Zhao, thank you!"
Huang Zhefu said gratefully.
"fine."
Zhao Tianyang first asked Liu Ding to send all the workers back to work, and then looked at Huang Zhefu.
"How was it? Tell me about your experience?"
"feels good!"
Huang Zhefu said excitedly: "I can say without exaggeration that this is the best plane I have ever flown."
"No matter the flight speed or altitude, they are exactly the same as you calculated. You are truly amazing!"
Zhao Tianyang said modestly: "Let's talk about the shortcomings. I just noticed that when landing, the plane lowered to the right. What happened?"
"When the plane landed, it shifted to the right as a whole. I think it was a shock absorption problem."
"As for other issues, they are engine parameters, climb rate, and descent rate. These data are not very accurate!"
Huang Zhefu thought for a moment and replied.
"Well, I will improve."
Zhao Tianyang comforted him and let Huang Zhefu go to rest first.
He himself, Liu Ransheng, and some workers climbed onto the plane and began to check the problems he had mentioned.
Because mechanical instruments are used, the only data that can be expressed are flight speed, altitude, attitude, heading, engine parameters, fuel level, compass, climb rate, and descent rate.
"It seems that the technology is still not mature enough!"
"The shock absorption problem is easy to solve. Just add hydraulic shock absorbers and spring shock absorbers to the aircraft."
Zhao Tianyang checked and recorded solutions and problems.
