Chapter 1005: A Difficult Choice
When Yang Yi was familiar with the small aircraft, that is, the T-6A, he began to fly out of the real role of the T-6A.
What does it mean, the T-6A is a training aircraft, a military training aircraft, and the existence of this aircraft is not for people who can't fly an airplane to learn to fly an airplane, but for people who have learned to fly an airplane, which is used to simulate and learn other models.
The T-6A is a propeller aircraft and a primary training aircraft, but one thing to be clear is that the T-6A is not lagging behind, although the slow speed is a shortcoming, but as a training aircraft, the disadvantage is that it is slow.
There are two kinds of trainers in the United States, one is the primary training aircraft T-6A, and the other is the advanced training aircraft T-38, but the T-6A is not only unable to simulate the speed of jet fighters, but in fact, it is largely used as a full-course training aircraft.
That is to say, even the T-6A can simulate a fighter of the F-15 class, although the speed is much worse, but the important thing is the avionics system of the training aircraft, if Yang Yi wants to, he can learn how to drive a transport aircraft on the T-6A.
Fighter pilots in the Air Force must go on advanced training planes, but transport aircraft pilots, bomber pilots, including tankers, as long as they are not fighters, can all study systematically on the T-6A, and after getting off the T-6A, they can study on real aircraft.
And in the CIA training camp, there are several types of T-6A, and there are two trainer planes that even have a complete fire control system.
Of course, the fire control system of the training aircraft cannot be used, and it is impossible to really mount missiles or anything, but if this training aircraft simulates the F-15, then after getting off this training aircraft, the real F15 at least knows where the fire control switch is and how to use it.
Having said so much, I just want to express one thing, that is, after Yang Yi flew for nearly twenty flight hours, he suddenly found that there was something more in his trainer plane, and then he knew that this plane was used to train CIA agents how to fly F16.
Yang Yi, who had never flown a jet before, might have been overwhelmed by the huge speed difference in a real F16, but now he has touched something that a civilian pilot would never be able to touch in his lifetime.
After landing on the plane, Yang Yi's first thing was to go straight to Heghouse's office.
Seeing Yang Yi, Haguehouse's face was still not so good-looking, he frowned, unconcealed his disgust, and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Instructor, I want to learn to drive F16!"
Haguehouse laughed and said, "You have just come into contact with the primary trainer aircraft, and you want to learn to fly a fighter?" ”
Yang Yi hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, instructor, I didn't make it clear, the training plane I flew today has the F16 fire control system, I think since I can learn how to fly a fighter here, then I ...... Can you learn it too? Just get acquainted with it, instructor. ”
Hagues laughed and said, "You've only been flying for twenty-one hours, and you want to learn jets, should I call you arrogant, or should I call you an idiot?" ”
Yang Yi said very seriously: "Instructor, I may never have the opportunity to touch a real fighter in my life, or any other advanced model, but I am a spy, please understand this, I am not an air force pilot, I am a spy, when I am on a mission, if I have to fly a fighter, even if I have never flown a jet, but I hope I understand how a jet operates, so I am not too demanding, instructor." ”
Hague House was silent, Yang Yi hesitated for a moment, and said: "Instructor, since there are conditions here, why don't you let me try it, even if it is just to tell me once, if you don't want to waste time, you can arrange other instructors to teach me." ”
Hague House finally spoke, he said slowly: "That's just the fire control system of the F16, our agent has a high-level flight foundation, so he only needs to be familiar with the fire control, the simulator and the real aircraft feel different after all, if you want to learn more complex models, you also need to start with the simulator first, in addition, if you want to know what the jet is, then you need at least the last real jet." ”
Haguehouse stood up, then he picked up his sunglasses and said: "There are no jets at this airport, because the jets are too noisy, I can let you get on the T-38 advanced trainer plane, I apply for you, but I have a request." ”
Yang Yi was excited, and he immediately said, "What a request!" ”
Hagues smiled and said, "You're a genius, aren't you?" ”
"Well, so to speak."
"You're quick at everything, aren't you?"
"Yes."
Hagues smiled: "Then let's make a bet, we can simulate a lot of aircraft models here, and you want to learn to fly a fighter?" No problem, if you want to learn to fly a transport plane, no problem, but I'll only give you twenty-four hours, now I'll take you to get the flight manual, as long as we have everything here for you, I'll only give you twenty-four hours, and after twenty-four hours, I'll take you to the simulator, and if you pass the initial test of the simulator, I'll take you to the real one, and if you pass the test on the real one......"
After a pause, Haghouse took a deep breath and said, "Then congratulations, I will personally take you to the advanced training aircraft, no matter what type of aircraft you decide to fly, I will definitely take you to the real aircraft." ”
Yang Yi thought for a while and said, "Are you talking about learning a model in 24 hours, or do you only give me a total of 24 hours." ”
Hagues smiled: "There are only twenty-four hours, you can use these twenty-four hours to learn how to fly the F16 fighter, you can also learn how to fly the C130 transport aircraft, you can also learn how to fly the B52 bomber, and even you can learn all three types of aircraft at the same time, it doesn't matter, but I will only give you twenty-four hours." ”
Yang Yi took a deep breath and said, "It's decided!" That's it! ”
Haghouse smiled: "Given the peculiarities of the CIA, you are lucky, come with me, I will give you what you need." ”
Coming to a room, Haghouse opened the door in person, and said in a deep voice: "In view of your level, you can fly any model that is sold in the United States, and you can't fly if there is no model for export, so let's see what you want to choose." ”
The flight manuals of each model are placed in different categories, but Yang Yi knows that in the range of models he can choose, the C130 is a must.
C130 is the most commonly used transport model in the United States, and many special aircraft are modified on C130 aircraft, so the type of transport aircraft does not have to be considered, it can only be C130, as for what C5, and C17 This strategic transport aircraft, he doesn't have to think about it at all.
As for some planes, such as bombers, tankers, and AWACS, let's not talk about whether they can be learned here, even if they can learn it, it is useless.
So that's transport planes and fighters.
But when it comes to fighters, how to choose between the F16 and F15?
