Chapter 010: I have become foolish

"It has been balanced!" Zhang Wei shouted instinctively

Li Zhan's voice remained very calm

Two hundred and fifty, infinitely approaching the theoretical limit

Oh, conducting research work, being studied by others, Li Zhan helplessly said, "Yes, I will resolutely obey the orders"

Miracles did not occur, at least Li Zhan does not believe in miracles; he believes in himself

The altitude is four hundred, and my speed is two hundred and six

In their eyes, the No. 037 fighter jet was plummeting towards the ground as if it were drunkenly swaying back and forth

Huang Xiaoyue spent half an hour carefully preparing a psychological intervention plan. At three o'clock, Li Zhan stood at the door to report.

Li Zhan came to his senses, averted his gaze, his ears burning, and said, "Alright, fine, thank you, Chief."

Li Zhan's report has not yet been completed, but the copies of the flight logs from the control tower have already reached Huang Xiaoyue. By the time she prepared to arrive at the health team office at 2:30 PM, she was already fully aware of what the new pilot coming over had experienced that morning

Some say that airplanes can glide, but only certain aircraft possess such capability. Fighter jets that pursue maneuverability cannot also have the ability to stroll leisurely, especially those like the J-7 that adopt a statically unstable aerodynamic configuration—either they remain still, or when they move, they do so with great intensity. The term 'statically unstable,' taken literally, is not far from the truth—it is very unstable when at rest.

He is now like a newly licensed driver who has a strong interest and desire for operating a vehicle; as long as there is a plane to fly, he can go without food or drink. Matters such as beautiful women enter through one ear and exit through the other, never lingering in his thoughts.

Watching the aircraft land further than ever before, the duty officer gradually felt a sense of relief as Aircraft 037 finally landed safely under controllable conditions

"His skills are indeed impeccable." Li Zhan stepped aside to fetch his water cup and poured some warm water, also pouring some into the cup labeled with Nie Jianfeng's name. He carried them over and changed the subject, "Chief Huang Xiaoyue from the health team asked me to go see her this afternoon."

Nie Jianfeng strode in, and as soon as he entered, he said, "That kid Zhang Xueyang is too inconsiderate..."

At this point, he reminded Li Zhan, "Make sure to write the report well, especially regarding the return landing; it will earn extra points in the future"

The landing gear has been deployed! shouted the soldier observing the landing gear through a telescope from the control tower

Suddenly seeing a female colonel who was only a few years older than him, Li Zhan found himself momentarily unable to move. Such a comprehensive blow was quite formidable. With a doctorate, serving as a colonel in the regiment, and being the head of the psychological counseling department, how could someone so tall and beautiful appear in real life

Nie Jianfeng waved his hand and said, "We are partners!"

The greater the speed at takeoff, the better; the smaller the speed at landing, the better. These are two extremes. Fighter jets differ from commercial airliners in that their engines do not have reverse thrust; they can only rely on flaps. Li Zhan had already lowered the flaps and reduced the throttle to its minimum position

"You all chat," Zhang Wei said with a smile, giving a thumbs up to Nie Jianfeng, "Jianfeng, well done."

For the personnel on duty at various positions in the control tower, they encounter varying degrees of emergencies every year, some of which are even more severe than the current situation, yet they still feel a sense of having survived a disaster. The reason for such a strong sense of contrast is likely because the pilot who has just completed a landing under complex weather conditions is a novice, or at least a newcomer

Li Zhan was taken aback, "Chief Zhang, I do not need it; I am completely fine."

According to the new regulations set by the master, psychological intervention should be conducted promptly after experiencing a dangerous situation. Although this does not qualify as a dangerous situation, it is still quite thrilling. It's nothing serious, just a chat to talk things over said Zhang Wei

Upon suddenly seeing Zhang Wei, he immediately shut his mouth, his face turning awkward.

Do not forget that you are a newcomer; this is the regulation. You should think of it this way: the division has made an exception for you, allowing you not only to fly solo directly but also to join the combat duty roster, which indicates that the division does not distrust your abilities but rather has great confidence in you. Going to talk to Section Chief Huang is merely a formality; it also serves to assist Section Chief Huang with her work, as she seems to be working on a project and needs materials

Nie Jianfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Chief of Staff Zhang, for the praise!"

Everyone noticed that aircraft 037 had stopped shaking, stabilizing its flight posture during the final approach phase, with the nose slightly raised and the tail gently settling down. As the landing gear tires touched down and splashed up a mist of water, the control tower erupted in a spontaneous cheer, and everyone began to applaud enthusiastically. Zhang Wei struck his right fist forcefully against his left palm, swinging his fist heavily in the air, overwhelmed with excitement. As the deputy commander, he shared in the credit for Li Zhan's safe landing.

As the deputy commander, he shared in the credit for Li Zhan's safe landing.

The crosswind is very strong

The duty officer had not yet spoken, and Li Zhan immediately said, "I am going to lower the landing gear"

Until aligning with the runway, Li Zhan's posture had actually remained in a tilted state

I will slide a little further

With a speed difference of only 20 kilometers per hour from the minimum stall speed, aircraft 037 is in imminent danger

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw the 037 fighter jet descending at an even faster speed, almost as if it had plopped down onto the ground. The duty officer's eyes widened in disbelief; could it be that this newcomer, who had already demonstrated superhuman flying skills, was only a fleeting phenomenon?

Li Zhan's gaze swept over the tall and slender figure of Huang Xiaoyue, who was dressed in a spring and autumn uniform. His eyes felt as if they had been pricked by a needle, and he quickly averted them, yet his face instantly flushed a deep red, becoming increasingly hot.

Li Zhan said, "I have aimed at the runway."

Stall means the loss of lift, and the only result of an aircraft losing lift is a crash

The minimum level flight speed of the J-7E is 240 kilometers per hour, which is theoretical and represents the limit achieved by test pilots under normal meteorological conditions. In other words, if the aircraft's speed falls below 240, it will stall. Pilots can only operate within this limit, and instances of exceeding this limit are rare.

Adjust your posture and pay attention to your stance!" the duty officer quickly reminded.

Only Li Zhan's voice echoed in the channel, each sentence following closely after the last, causing everyone's hearts to rise and fall in unison

Zhang Wei thought to himself, what a humble and amiable young man he is, his way of dealing with people is far superior to that of Zhang Xueyang from the Sixth Regiment, just look at how low-key he is

Li Zhandao said, "The crosswind is very strong, I need to accelerate through the turbulence"

Comrade Li Zhan, please take a seat

The duty personnel in the control tower almost all stood up, intently staring at the fighter jet No. 037 in mid-air

Nie Jianfeng took a sip of water to replenish the fluids he had lost more quickly than usual, and said, "Surely someone will take over, there are still people around. It's a holiday, the team won't be doing anything too intense. It's not just you; I will also take a break this afternoon. Besides, the Air Force has just completed a random inspection, and we passed it smoothly. The division will handle it."

"Don't be nervous, it's really just a heart-to-heart conversation," Zhang Wei said with a smile

Once Zhang Wei left, Nie Jianfeng's suppressed anger surged again, and he pressed his voice down in anger, "He can't possibly be unaware that our fuel has reached an alarm state. Does he really think I can't descend? To put it bluntly, he just enjoys showing off!"

The hearts of the crowd were all in turmoil, unconsciously gaping in anticipation of a miracle to occur

"Nonsense." Nie Jianfeng put down his flight helmet and said with a cold snort, "The combat readiness aircraft must be fully fueled. The Su-27 can fly to Zengmu Ansha when fully loaded. How long have they been out? Ultimately, it is all about showcasing themselves at every turn."

Is there no duty in the afternoon? Li Zhan is still concerned about the combat readiness duty

No one laughed; instead, the atmosphere grew increasingly serious and solemn

Li Zhan! Well done! That was impressive! I mean, the landing you just made was truly beautiful!" Zhang Wei came down from the control tower.

The duty officer no longer called the flight code, but directly addressed by name, indicating how tense the situation was

The winter in the southernmost part of the continent is green. From the control tower, one can see the distant woods lush and verdant, yet the grayish sky dampens the spirits. This winter in the southern region lacks the heavy snow of the north and the scorching summer of the southern islands, leaving a sense of melancholy in the in-between. The temperature is not low, yet there is a biting chill in the air. At this moment, everyone in the control tower is sweating coldly down their backs.

Steadying his emotions, Li Zhan sat on the edge of his seat, straightening his back and placing his hands on his knees, quietly surveying this unique office. The warm sky blue color created a cozy atmosphere, and the layout was very casual, featuring a complete set of fabric sofas, a small bar counter, a square table adorned with playing cards, and a front wall bookshelf with an eclectic arrangement of various books. Even some corners were tastefully decorated with greenery, while the office desk was surprisingly the least conspicuous element.

The height is three hundred

At this moment, the ultra-low altitude turbulence is quite severe

"Please have a seat, don't be formal." Huang Xiaoyue set down the folder and walked over to the small bar to brew tea

The weather was favorable, the rain clouds had moved away, and the sunlight quickly spread across the entire flight area in a very short time, despite some light rain still falling. The meteorological officer excitedly reported the extremely comfortable data, and after enduring the clouds, the duty officer decisively ordered Nie Jianfeng to land. It was only when Nie Jianfeng's aircraft safely taxied off the main runway that everyone truly felt relieved

In terms of standards, the office of the instructor and political commissar is not as good as here

Huang Xiaoyue pointed to the sofa beside her, picked up the folder, and walked over with a very friendly smile to face Li Zhan. She cherished every opportunity for psychological intervention with the pilots. For the military, psychological intervention is a new concept; many officers and soldiers do not understand it, believing she is a psychiatrist and that receiving her treatment indicates a mental issue, a problem with their minds, which leads to significant resistance. How to help more officers and soldiers fully understand and recognize the concept and importance of psychological intervention will likely be a more urgent task than psychological intervention itself for a long time to come.

I have become foolish

There is no doubt that this is intended to create a relaxed and warm atmosphere

Li Zhan comforted with a smile, "Perhaps he doesn't have a full tank, and maybe it's running low."

Zhang Xueyang stood beside his war eagle, his gaze following Li Zhan's aircraft No. 037 as it taxied to the parking spot. He watched as the ground crew rushed up in raincoats, braving the rain, and saw Li Zhan descend from the aircraft under the light rain, running towards the shuttle bus. Looking back at the shelter where his war eagle was stationed, a hangar that could withstand typical missile strikes and would not be drenched by the rain, Zhang Xueyang for the first time recalled the meaning of the saying "there are always people beyond people, and mountains beyond mountains," and deeply felt that he was, in fact, not that remarkable.

The female doctor of the sanitation team, Nie Jianfeng, took it over and said in surprise, then suddenly thought of something, "Yes, that's right, this is the regulation. Go ahead, Doctor Huang is very attractive, pleasing to the eye, and there is no harm in it"

Understood, thank you, Team Leader Nie. Li Zhan sincerely expressed his gratitude, as Nie Jianfeng genuinely cared for his well-being; perhaps another person would not have said such things.

Understood said Li Zhan, nodding his head

It is all because of the person named Li Zhan

"Please relax, take a seat, and have something to drink. I have boiled water and black tea, or perhaps some black tea, which tastes quite good," Huang Xiaoyue said with a smile, as if engaging in casual conversation.

The Second Division is an elite force, having been an elite since its inception. It demonstrated its indomitable spirit during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, naturally daring to take the lead. Therefore, significant efforts were made to transfer her from the Military Medical University, promoting her directly to a regiment-level position and establishing a dedicated battalion-level department for her, which clearly indicates the level of importance attached to her.

Li Zhan is carefully wiping the five-pointed red star on the white helmet with a towel, smiling as he says, "Zhang, I didn't recognize your voice."

"Chief Zhang, please give your instructions." Li Zhan stood at attention and reported.

"It is not surprising that you didn't notice, as your attention was focused on the landing," Zhang Wei said as he walked over and patted Li Zhan on the shoulder. "Make sure to rest well at noon, and in the afternoon, go to the health team to find Section Chief Huang Xiaoyue."

Li Zhan, report the altitude and speed

He has not forgotten that there is still an aircraft in the sky waiting to land
