The next day, Xiang Jingtian and Bai Ying boarded the plane together. Bai Ying was now just accompanying Xiang Jingtian on the flight because Xiang Jingtian's skills no longer required his guidance.
Today's project is about recovering from a stall spin. A stall occurs when the wing's angle of attack (AOA) reaches a certain level (the critical AOA), causing the airflow over the wing to separate, resulting in a decrease in lift. The aircraft will then nose down and sink until it regains sufficient lift for flight. Stalling at low altitude is dangerous, but once you're high enough, you can practice recovering from a stall. The basic maneuver to recover from a stall is to quickly push the stick all the way down to a dive attitude. Once the speed reaches 1.3 times the stall speed, slowly pull back on the stick to recover and level flight.
Stall is a very dangerous condition for third-generation aircraft. During the training of third-generation aircraft, special situation exercises on stall recovery are required.
A spin, also known as a spiral, occurs when one wing stalls before the other. The aircraft will rotate along its longitudinal axis in the direction of the wing that stalled first. This is called a spiral or tailspin. Spins are extremely dangerous. Some aircraft are designed and manufactured so that they are prohibited from entering spins. Once such aircraft enter a spin attitude, it is very difficult to recover. The basic method for recovering from a spin on an aircraft that can recover is to push the stick all the way down and pull it in the opposite direction. If the engine is running at high speed, the throttle must be immediately reduced to idle and the rudder applied fully in the opposite direction of the spin. After the spin stops, the stall recovery method should be used. The key to success lies in the pilot's technique and the performance of the aircraft.
A stall spin is an abnormal condition in which an aircraft enters a spiraling, rapidly turning, and plummeting state after being mishandled. This condition not only significantly reduces the aircraft's maneuverability but also seriously endangers flight safety, hence the name "death trap."
In air forces around the world, there are many cases of serious flight accidents caused by low-altitude stall spins. In particular, there are frequent reports of veteran pilots who fail to recover in time while performing maneuvers or low-altitude stunts, resulting in aircraft crashes and fatalities.
The above situation has changed significantly when the new generation of fighter jets were equipped with large thrust vectoring engines.
However, their aircraft is not equipped with a vector engine, which requires certain skills. White Eagle is ready to take over at any time.
Soon the plane reached 7,000 meters, and then Xiang Jingtian flew the plane vertically 90 degrees upward until the plane stalled and began to fall.
Xiang Jingtian said into the headset: "The plane began to enter a tailspin, one circle, two circles, three circles, four circles, five circles."
At this time, White Eagle also became anxious and urged: "Eaglet, hurry up, it's 4000 meters now."
Said to Jingtian: "No hurry, start right away."
After saying that, he began to perform the recovery operation. First, he restarted the engine, then slowly pulled back the joystick. Soon the plane resumed level flight, and at this time the altitude was only one thousand meters. Bai Ying was almost scared to death. If something went wrong, his military career would be over. Fortunately, Xiang Jingtian finally completed the training.
Then Xiang Jingtian flew the plane to 7,000 meters, and then he did a handsome leaf-falling jump. Bai Ying was tossed around in the plane and he decided not to get on his plane next time. This kid's flying skills were already good enough for him to fly solo, and it would be unnecessary for him to get on board himself.
Xiang Jingtian performed a few more maneuvers. I have to say, these movements were very good, there was nothing to complain about, and everything that should be done was done.
Since there is no problem with flying, the next step is combat training. A good pilot must also have up-to-standard combat skills. Of course, they don’t know that Xiang Jingtian has a system and special air combat skills. Shooting someone down is as easy as drinking water.
Soon the two returned to the ground. After reporting the situation, Bai Ying directly applied for air combat training. In a while, they would not only fly, but also carry bombs to conduct air-to-air and air-to-ground training.
An hour later, the two men boarded the plane again. This time, there would be an enemy plane to cooperate with the training. After all, without an enemy plane, you are just hitting the air.
Soon the two planes took off, and the battle officially began after arriving at the designated airspace. Bai Ying took over first. He wanted to teach Xiang Jingtian skills such as how to fight in the air, how to chase in the air, how to attack and defend, and how to escape. To be honest, this was just a procedure. If they really fought, he was not Xiang Jingtian's opponent, but the reality was like this. You had to follow the process, otherwise you couldn't do it yourself.
Soon the radars of the two planes started beeping at each other, beep beep. The White Eagle immediately turned on the fire control. Since both were carrying short-range combat missiles, they were waiting to get close to each other's attack range, but no one would give you a chance to lock. Both sides were avoiding each other's radar lock. Both sides were extremely nervous, afraid that they would be locked and shot down.
As the distance got closer, warnings appeared on the radars of both sides. The White Eagle immediately maneuvered to avoid the opponent's locking range, and then the opponent immediately flew over. The two sides kept performing rolls, dives, climbs, tumbles, and sideslips to chase each other. Finally, the White Eagle seized the opportunity and locked onto the opponent first and launched a missile. The sound of failure was also heard from the other side.
The opposing pilot said in the battle channel: "White Eagle, it has to be you again. I've lost to you twice this month. Come let me play against your apprentice."
White Eagle said, "Vulture, don't underestimate this guy. You might get humiliated in a moment."
The vulture said, "White Eagle, you must be kidding. This is the first time for the young eagle to undergo air combat training. If I lose, I will go down and wash my hair handstand."
The white eagle smiled and said, "Do you have hair on your head, bald eagle?"
Vulture: "Ah, ah, ah, no, that's not right."
White Eagle: "Okay, okay, no more jokes, let's teach the young eagle well."
Bai Ying said to Xiang Jingtian: "The control has passed to you. It's your turn now. It doesn't matter if you fail."
Xiang Jingtian will fail? Don’t joke, the opponent will be beaten to the point of doubting his life in a while.
As the two sides distanced themselves, the battle began.
