"Pull up! Pull it up! "On the bumpy plane, the shouts of ground observers came from the pilot's headphones. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

A ME-109T fighter jet rushed through the straight runway, and the pilot inside frowned when he heard the shouting, and then quickly pulled up his plane.

According to his previous flight experience, it was an almost perfect landing, but the personnel in charge of observation on the ground still let out that kind of scream that made him nasty.

When this sound sounds, it means that his landing has failed again, a desperate failure.

It was already the 11th time in his last 11 landings that he had failed...... What a pitiful number.

Put his skills in an ordinary fighter wing, even if he is not a top ace, he should not be a novice.

But when training for this kind of perversion to the extreme, he realized that he underestimated the word flying too much.

Piloting his own fighter jet, he finally pulled it up again, then went around in a circle in the sky, and re-aimed the nose of his fighter at the obvious white frame.

The ME-109T fighter is a fighter modified for the sake of going on ships, and a lot of improvements have been made for the landing and take-off of aircraft carriers.

At the time of the design of this fighter, Germany did not have other high-performance fighters, so even if it knew that the ME-109T fighter was not suitable for ships, it had to be refitted.

However, now it seems that the landing performance of this fighter is so poor that it can be described as miserable......

"One more time! Don't be discouraged! Only the closest training to actual combat can save your lives at sea! On the ground, the commander with the microphone encouraged the pilot.

The pilot didn't speak, he pushed his joystick and re-entered the route where he had landed.

Aiming his nose at the white landing area, he carefully adjusted the altitude of his flight little by little.

At this time, there are no height alerts and no driving aids. This fighter, which is very agile in the sky, but is too jumpy when landing, needs to be piloted by him.

Pushing his a little bit, he saw that his fighter was very close to the white frame.

There, there is a landing arresting cable on a simulated aircraft carrier, and he must lower the landing hook and hang it on the arresting cable in order to complete a correct landing.

"I'm in! Can't see the hint! Repeat! I can't see the hint! He looked a little nervous, and his voice trembled slightly.

After all, this is his 12th landing, and every time he fails in the future, he will refresh this record, which is absolutely shameless!

Another reason for his nervousness was that there were no flight simulators in this era, and every landing he made had to face risks head-on - this training had indeed lost 2 pilots.

"Adjust the speed of the plane! You're speeding! On the ground, the ground crew of the aircraft carrier responsible for commanding him reminded him over and over again.

On the ground, he could hear the cues of the ground observers, and if he was transferred to the carrier, he would only be able to see the gestures of the LSO landing commander.

In fact, the Germans themselves did not have any data on the landing on the deck of aircraft carriers, which were bought at high prices from their allies, the Japanese.

In order to form his own aircraft carrier fleet, Li Le can be said to have reached the point of sparing no expense, as a person from later generations, the obsession with aircraft carriers is not something that people in this era can understand.

There is a joke that a battleship is a man's romance. For Li Le, the aircraft carrier is the plot of the naval power of the two worlds in which he lives!

Before the crossing, his homeland had already relied on its own strength to become a quasi-aircraft carrier possessing country, so he also wanted the Third Reich led by himself to become an aircraft carrier power.

All these hopes are pinned on this Zeppelin aircraft carrier, including the hope of completely defeating Britain, and the hope of rejecting the United States from the country!

"I'm on the verge of crashing! Damn it! Couldn't be any more slow...... Am I tall? Give me a gesture! I can't see your gestures! The pilot continued to look out of the glass windows on both sides of the cockpit, and he was almost unable to see the small white frame.

He had to abandon the landing, pulling the plane up again, maintaining a relatively safe speed, and flying rapidly over the landing area.

"Oh my God! Failed again! It's not a human job at all! On the ground, the landing commander, waving the flag of two colors, threw the flag in his hand to the ground.

They have replaced 13 pilots, two pilots have died, and the remaining 11 pilots have failed in the landing experiment.

Frankly speaking, the ME-109T fighter is not suitable for the ship at all, because the Stuka JU-87C bomber that conducted landing experiments at the same time has been successful several times.

"Hell! Gather all the pilots who are waiting to die! I'll go up and try it myself! On the ground, a young squadron commander stuffed the headset in his hand to his comrades.

Ignoring the dissuasion of the personnel on both sides, he climbed into his own fighter, and because he was in charge of the aircraft carrier landing experiment, he had already replaced his car with an ME-109T fighter.

This aircraft has a wingspan of 40 centimeters more than the ME-109E fighter and has better low-altitude performance, but it is only because of the old design of the landing gear of the ME-109 fighter that it is not suitable for landing.

Pushing away the ground crew who had persuaded him, he buckled up his cockpit and began to check his instruments.

Perhaps except for Germany, all major World War II aircraft carrier users are reluctant to use liquid-cooled engines on ships. The naval fighters of various countries are air-cooled, which is also related to the fact that air-cooled fighters are more suitable for naval operations.

If Li Le had been given the choice now, he would of course have chosen to put the more suitable FW-190 fighter on board the ship -- but unfortunately this choice now seems to be too much delay.

"Buzz!" The BMW aero engine began to vibrate, and the three-bladed propeller in front began to rotate, and finally because of the speed, it gradually became transparent, and finally almost disappeared.

The fighter fluttered its wings in the wind and took to the skies at full speed. Then he made a beautiful circle in the sky, like a clever swallow.

"I see you!" Sideways over his fuselage, he looked at the location of the white frame on the ground, and then saw the landing commander about the size of a sesame seed.

"I'm descending heights! Don't talk to prompt me! I've seen the command manual! Everything is according to the actual combat procedure! He commanded as he controlled his plane's descent.

"Sir! It's training! The first time you can ask me to radio you up! The landing commander on the ground spoke.

"Shut up! Best what you should do! The resolute squadron leader drove his fighter jet into the landing route, and after opening his mouth to scold, he closed his mouth.

The ME-109T slowed down a little in the sky, then lowered in altitude, and approached the white box with the help of memory.

Soon, through the glass of his flight cockpit, he saw the landing commander, who was about the size of a pen cap.

The other party is making a gesture that everything is fine, and it seems that the angle he cuts in is perfect. It only took two seconds for his front wheel to hit the ground.

Then the squadron leader felt that his plane was being pulled by a huge force, and the speed quickly decreased.

His body was pulled by the seat belt and did not hit the dashboard in front of him, but he also felt a brief discomfort.

Then, all the ground crews rushed to the plane, which had been pulled by the blocking cable, and cheered loudly as they ran.

The squadron leader lifted the hatch over his head, then stood up and looked at the ground crews and pilots who were gathered around.

He jumped onto the wings of the plane, then jumped to the ground from there, and handed the parachute and simulated life jacket and other bits and pieces to the ground crew who applauded next to him.

Then the squadron leader, who was not very old, looked at his subordinates: "Okay, now we have our first successful landing!" It's a little bit away from the 1000th time! Is there a problem? ”

"No problem! Sir! The pilots, who had previously thought they had been troubled, applauded together and replied in unison.

To ensure that they could become the first truly qualified naval fighter pilots, the white frame actually drawn on the ground was not simulated according to the dimensions of the Zeppelin aircraft carrier.

It is 4 meters narrower than a real aircraft carrier and a full 30 meters shorter - the aircraft parameters provided by the Japanese are not as heavy as the ME-109T, so Raeder and Li Le discussed and came up with such a perverted training plan.

Of course, this does not mean that landing on an aircraft carrier is easier than this training, because after all, aircraft carriers are to shake on the sea!

But at least, the German naval commander Raeder had done his best to create all the good conditions for the German naval aviation before it was put on board.

On the other hand, with Li Le's personal intervention, Fokker is also seizing the time to develop a more sophisticated carrier-based fighter FW-190T.

It is expected that the new aircraft will have a great possibility of coming up with a prototype within two months because of the design experience accumulated by the ME-109T.

"Before landing, use the side fly to see where you land! Don't rush in, follow the requirements on the landing manual, and do it step by step! After summing up his experience, the squadron leader turned around and returned to his position.

On 2 September, the ground landing experiment of German naval aviation progressed rapidly, with 11 pilots successfully landing in the designated area.
