Just as Steve screamed, the nose of this huge fighter plane began to turn involuntarily. The entire plane was in the horizontal plane as if it were a propeller. This is the most terrifying horizontal spin of all planes!
If you drive carefully in normal times, you can avoid this situation. As long as you don't touch the flight envelope, there will be nothing wrong.
But now that the Tomcat fighter jet has broken its wings, Nathan shrinks the wings to avoid flipping, and at the same time turns on the afterburner. If you want to increase the speed of the aircraft and bring more lift, it is easy to deal with.
But he didn't expect that this would bring a terrible horizontal spin!
Once the tail spin speeds up, it is difficult to recover. Just as Steve screams, Nathan has already pushed the joystick quickly and moved the rudder in the opposite direction!
It was no use, the plane was still yawing to the right, so Nathan could only free up one hand and turned off the afterburner of the left engine.
Driven by the engine on the right, the nose was slowly and slowly returning to the center, and finally stopped the terrible rotation!
Steve felt that his back was going to be soaked. Just now, his hand was on the ejection handle, but he knew that he could not move without Nathan’s order. He had to believe it. Sen, trust him unconditionally!
Sure enough, Nathan successfully changed it! Turn off the afterburner on the right, and if it burns for a long time, the fuel will be consumed at an alarming rate. Nathan pushed the lever to aim the direction of the coastline.
"Now, let's go home." Nathan said lightly.
In fact, Nathan’s palms were already sweating, he had never thought of parachuting, he just wanted to drive the fighter back!
With the experience just now, Nathan will be easier to fly again. Because the right wing is missing, the plane always wants to lean to the right, so he has to hold the joystick to the left to offset the deflection. Flight torque, the Tomcat fighter was flying in the direction of Miramar Air Station.
When he was about to fly to the shoreline, to the right of Nathan, a Tomcat fighter flew gently aside. Nathan turned his head and took a look. It was his former instructor, Lyman.
Today, Lehmann came to fight against the novice as a veteran flying bird. After getting Nathan's accident, he flew over immediately. When he saw Nathan's plane, he was immediately impressed.
The wing on the right was broken in half, and the wing swept back. In this case, Nathan actually flew more than a hundred kilometers!
Only a genius like Nathan would dare to drive it back!
"Young Eagle, don't worry, I'll take you home." Lyman shouted over the radio.
The two planes flew eastward, and finally, the runway of Miramar Air Station in the distance could be seen.
"I can't slow down, I can only land at high speed." Nathan yelled on the radio: "Please prepare me to stop the rope!"
Blocking cables are common equipment on aircraft carriers. When a carrier-based aircraft lands on an aircraft carrier, it definitely does not decelerate, but accelerates and crashes into it. Once the ship fails to land, it must go around immediately. If the speed is not high enough, then It's going to fall into the sea.
Therefore, the carrier-based aircraft are equipped with ship hooks at the tail, hooking one of the three blocking cables, and being pulled to a halt by the blocking cables to complete a landing.
However, blocking cables are not only available on aircraft carriers. Many land airports are also equipped with blocking cables.
Once a fighter plane breaks down or the runway is damaged and must land on a short runway, the blocking rope will play a huge role.
At the same time, not only carrier-based aircraft can use blocking cables, but also Air Force aircraft. For example, F-16 has tail hooks to hook blocking cables when needed, but it is not like carrier-based aircraft. The fixed rod, but the soft rope.
Miramar Air Station was originally owned by the Navy. Of course, it was equipped with blocking cables. After receiving Nathan’s request, it only took tens of seconds for a well-trained ground crew to densely arrange six blocking cables on the runway. .
The ground crew were widening their eyes, looking at the plane with its wing broken, and it was able to fly back. It was a miracle!
"Steve, we are about to land, it may be bumpy." Nathan said to his companion in the rear cabin.
At this time, the speed of the aircraft is as high as 500 kilometers per hour.
The Tomcat fighter has variable swept wings. During a normal landing, it will deploy its wings, which can greatly reduce the landing speed. It can land below 300 kilometers per hour. But now, once the wings are deployed, it cannot To maintain balance, Nathan must maintain a speed of 500 kilometers per hour with the wings swept back.
Must land successfully once! Nathan didn't have the ability to turn again and again to land a second time, so he didn't know how much circle he had to turn.
This is the same as the usual landing of a carrier aircraft. Although there is no guide by the Fresnel lens on the tail, Nathan still landed with the correct glide line. At this time, his hand repeatedly adjusted the operating lever and adjusted the rudder. I can't see it. In fact, his rudder surface is adjusted at a speed of more than a dozen times per minute, so that the airplane's attitude can remain stable.
With a fierce howl, the Tomcat fighter retracted its wings and rushed down the runway at a speed of 500 kilometers per hour. This time it landed, it definitely hit it!
The tires lightly touched the runway, and the sturdy and powerful landing gear was slammed back for nearly half a meter at this moment, and then there were two bangs, and the tubeless wheel directed at the nitrogen was hit. exploded!
If only one wheel explodes, then the Tomcat fighter plane will definitely turn over, and the terrible phenomenon of taking the big top will occur. Now, it happens that the two wheels explode at the same time, so that the aircraft is at least level.
The wheel exploded and it was still rolling. It fell off after a few laps. The alloy wheel was rubbing against the ground. On the runway, two frictional sparks appeared on the runway. As the aircraft slid forward, This Mars is also flying with it.
At this moment, everyone held their breath and opened their mouths. It seems that their heartbeats have stopped, and everyone's retinas are frozen on the plane that is forcibly landing on the runway.
Its front wheel touched the ground.
At this time, the speed of the aircraft has dropped, and the front wheels are two wheels, so when the two wheels touch the ground, they did not explode, the tires were still running forward, and the whole aircraft continued to rush forward, passing the blocking rope. , The tail hook behind the plane magically hooked the first blocking rope.
This is simply a perfect landing!
The Tomcat fighter that hooked the blocking cable continued to rush forward. The blocking cable was quickly pulled into a triangle. At the same time, the aircraft received a strong pull. The two people inside were strangled to death by the seat belts. Also feel dizzy.
The plane stopped. (End of this chapter)
