The correct way to open the elf

Chapter 393 First Flight Experience

Feng Yu made up his mind and closed his eyes, then stepped onto the cockpit of the plane, not forgetting to wave to the busybodies around him.

What worried him the most was that Nicole was also among them. The little girl was smiling happily, and he didn't worry at all that she would become an elf widow after the plane crash.

This test aircraft had only taxied on the ground before, and today was its first flight. The city lord was in a dilemma at the moment, so he gritted his teeth and increased the power output to the maximum.

So the question is, can our city lord fly a plane?
Needless to say, we know that he would never open it, but the researchers in Cattail City would definitely not do that either.

Because the industrial capacity of Xiangpu City is still very strong, the engine used in the aircraft is powerful, and the fuselage is a light keel, so not long after taxiing, Feng Yu felt that the thing under him had reached the point where it could fly.

Although this was his wishful thinking, he could not resist the willfulness of the city lord.

According to his own understanding, he began to pull the plane up and at the same time "stepped on the accelerator".

The shrill roar of the radial engine was heard, and the plane raised its front wheels out of courtesy.

Next, the most magical thing happened in the continent of Green this year.

The onlookers covered their ears and watched this ugly iron monster draw a crazy curve and rush towards the sky with its head raised.

"Oh!" Feng Yu let out a strange cry and shouted "Awesome" in his heart.

It doesn’t matter if I don’t have any flying theory or have never been to a flight school, I can still fly, right?!
An airplane is just a car with wings. What’s so great about it?

"Turn left and I'll fly a dragon..."

"Turn right and fly out of the rainbow..."

“Raise your hands and I’ll pull up, lower your head and I’ll dive!

Holy shit... why is there smoke coming out of the front of this thing?"

The city lord, who had sharp eyesight, captured the scene with his dynamic vision and found that not only was smoke coming out of the front engine, but a piece of the skin on the left wing suddenly opened up and was then pulled away by the wind.

Next, he witnessed the disintegration of the left wing, and he himself spun and dived toward the sand dunes below.

"Well, there's something wrong with the engine. The skin is not strong enough, and the fuselage is shaking at a high frequency. It should be caused by resonance somewhere."

City Lord Feng summarized the problems and then jumped out of the open cockpit with a beautiful somersault. Just as he was about to give a thumbs up to his own swift action, he was hit by the vertical tail of the plane.

"Oh my old waist!"

The scroll of the Falling Feather Technique was torn open, and Feng Yu, holding his snake-like waist and grinning, slowly floated down from the air, and landed headfirst on a sand dune.

"Tui, this thing is just not as useful as a parachute!"

When the city lord was shaking his head and struggling with the sand in his ears and eyes, the researchers and the onlookers came running over.

Nicole looked at the sand stuck to Feng Yu's mouth by his saliva, and smiled so hard that her big eyes curved into a pair of crescents.

"I'll let you show off." He took out a small kettle and let his lover rinse his mouth.

"Without falling, how can you draw the truth?"

"Brother Darren is so persistent that he can even knock the tail off that thing!"

Dick praised Feng Yu with a sound of admiration, which almost made Feng Yu depressed to death.

The wreckage of the aircraft remained largely intact except for the missing left wing and vertical tail. It was dug out of the sand and recovered and studied by the aircraft team.

Feng Yu also realized that without accumulation and gradual progress, it would not work.

Although Cattail City can build a flying monoplane from the beginning, this gameplay is still too big a step and can easily cause damage.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talking about the pilot issue. The best way to train a pilot is to start with a slow and safe biplane, so that you can accumulate flying experience step by step.

If you let a novice test drive this kind of "supercar" from the beginning, I'm afraid the result will be similar to his.

Apart from anything else, one should start with hang gliding and paramotor, and slowly develop the pilot's sense of flying.

In fact, Feng Yu had taken it for granted. Although an airship could also fly, it relied on buoyancy, which was completely different from an aircraft that relied on aerodynamics to fly.

However, even though it was a misunderstanding, at least Feng Yu's initial flights allowed the aircraft team of Pulu City to see what this light and swift aircraft should look like, rather than just imagining things out of thin air.

To put it simply, although this aircraft experiment was a bit of a joke, it set an example for future research work.

Following this model and Feng Yu's step-by-step approach, Pupu City first developed a powered paraglider, an excellent prop for experiencing flying. Then, because the paraglider's canopy was inconvenient to use, they developed a powered hang glider, also called a powered delta wing.

The finalized version of the powered delta wing is a two-seat teaching version. It is simple to manufacture and highly safe. It can glide and land even if it loses power. It is an excellent design for novices to experience flying.

After completing these tasks, the design team gained experience in manufacturing monoplanes, and began reverse scientific research to develop biplanes. The Pupu City Railway Army also officially began to recruit pilots from among the soldiers and conduct initial flight training using powered delta wings.

The monoplane was a joke, but the simple flying machine like the powered delta wing surprised everyone. They also realized why Feng Yu said that airships were not suitable for war at all.

Compared with these new aircraft, airship flight was reduced to comfort and elegance.

However, including Feng Yu, more soldiers prefer the delta-wing flying style that is like having wings.

Feng Yu finally fulfilled his dream of flying. Whenever he had nothing to do, he would take Nicole for a flight over Pupu City on a delta wing.

When summer came, the Pupu Dam on the Lengshui River was completed. The steam pumps set up on the riverside were removed and the Lengshui River began to store water.

This grand project in Green attracted human attention. With the completion of the Cattail Dam, humans discovered that what they worried about had happened. Cattail City began to build a large fortress above the spillway on the west bank of the dam.

But humans are also anxious, because that place is not their territory, and they also know that the purpose of building a fortress in Cattail City is not to threaten them, but to prevent humans from entering the wilderness through the Cattail Dam.

After completing the dam project, a large number of construction machinery and vehicles were dispatched to the alluvial plain south of Xiangpu City to dig an artificial river from east to west.

The reason for developing an artificial river here is to allow the ocean current to flow directly from the artificial river into the tail end of Lengshui River, so that the mermaids can have a safe saltwater environment.

Although mermaids can live in fresh water, the sudden change in water quality still makes many weak mermaids sick, and they have to swim to the estuary of Lengshui River every day to "take a sea bath."

The soil of the alluvial plain is soft and not long from north to south, so it is easy to excavate. This is also done to win the favor of the mermaids and try to get them to settle down in Cattail City and integrate into Cattail City.
