Changkong Fighter

Chapter 6 Experience Points
After confirming that the tail hook was hooked, Liu Jun reduced the throttle and applied the brakes. J15 continued to slide forward for a distance, and with the assistance of the arresting cable, it consumed the energy and stopped steadily on the deck.

After a textbook landing, the ground crew on the deck quickly ran towards J15, and Liu Jun also took off his helmet and looked at the island next to him.

"Should I be qualified?"

My landing was very standard, and I should have passed the [Daytime Aircraft Carrier Qualification Certification]. I will be training on the Liaoning for the next year.

After ensuring that the carrier-based aircraft had come to a complete stop, the flight crew used a small vehicle to drag the J15 to the parking area and secured the aircraft to the deck with a mooring lock. However, most of their attention was focused on a piece of skin on the right side of the cockpit. This skin, made of a different material from other parts, was blackened by the gas produced by the machine gun firing.

Walking down the ladder from J15, Liu Jun identified the direction and headed towards the island. Next, he had to report to his superiors.

Walking on the wide deck of the Liaoning, the hull is like flat ground in the sea. The waves cannot shake this giant ship at all, and its sailing stability is also very good. It is completely different from the Indian aircraft carrier, which keeps bowing its head on the sea.

While walking, Liu Jun checked the experience he had just gained, which was equivalent to half a month's flying. He glanced at the experience required for each skill and found that there was not enough experience to upgrade other skills. It was only enough to upgrade situational awareness by 0.5, so he directly added the experience to situational awareness.

Hey~
【Eyesight Training Level: 1】

Situational Awareness Level: 1

[Overload tolerance LV: 2]

[Physical Enhancement Level: 1]

[Life Amplification Level: 1]

With balanced skills, Liu Jun felt like he was about to become a "low-profile pentagonal warrior". After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped. He felt his brain become clear and he could clearly feel all the "dynamics" around him. Even if he couldn't see it with his eyes, he could still clearly perceive it.

This change surprised Liu Jun a little. Every skill was really strong. It was a pity that flying experience had to be gained slowly and painstakingly. After all, it was a peacetime era now, and he could only accumulate it through flying hours.

When Liu Jun arrived at the island, he saw the officer waiting for him. He immediately stood up straight and shouted, "Cadet Liu Jun reporting in!"

"Take a break."

The other party looked at Liu Jun, nodded inwardly, and motioned the middle-aged man next to him to come forward: "This is Zhang Peng, he will be your master from now on. Okay, Lao Zhang, take him to familiarize himself with the job. I will notify you when the results of your qualification certification are out."

After saying that, the captain turned and left. He had other things to do. Only Liu Jun and Zhang Peng were left at the scene.

"master."

Zhang Peng, a middle-aged man with a round face, gave Liu Jun a friendly smile and motioned for him to follow him. A master isn't like an instructor; he's closer than that! He's responsible for teaching his apprentice how to fly, and he also has to take care of their lives and emotions. Being both a teacher and a father isn't just talk.

"Don't worry, I saw you land, and there's no problem with your daytime qualification."

Zhang Peng comforted them and they went to the security area on the ship to store some personal belongings. It was strictly forbidden for individuals to use mobile phones to make calls or surf the Internet on the ship.

A phone call or even a message can expose the location of the aircraft carrier!
Liu Jun unloaded his belongings one by one and submitted them to security inspection. He turned off his phone and handed it in, which would be returned to him upon disembarkation. He checked the brand on his PAD and confirmed it wasn't an Apple or other foreign brand, but a domestically produced Huawei. He then gave it to Liu Jun. After all, pilots need their own space. Inside the PAD were some TV series and movies, along with a few paper books and a notebook, which remained untouched.

After taking care of his personal belongings, Zhang Peng took him into the interior of the aircraft carrier and introduced the layout of the aircraft carrier's cabins. Liu Jun listened carefully.

"There are more than ten floors below the flight deck. It's like a maze. I got lost several times when I first boarded the ship."

Zhang Peng talked about his embarrassing story, his round face full of helplessness. The aircraft carrier was too big, with passages and cabins everywhere. The total length of the passages inside the entire aircraft carrier was dozens of kilometers, and the internal structure was even more complicated.

"There are over 3000 cabins on our ship, with over 1000 people living in them. It's like a city on the sea. Oh, and there's a supermarket inside. If you forget to bring something, you can buy it there. They have everything, but they don't sell alcohol."

After saying that, Zhang Peng sniffed and didn't smell any cigarettes on Liu Jun. As for alcohol? Pilots wouldn't touch it.

"Not smoking, that's good, that's good." Zhang Peng then led Liu Jun to the port side and explained the interior of the aircraft carrier. "The aisles on an aircraft carrier are too narrow to go both ways. You should have learned the basic rules of passage: if you're heading towards the bow, you should go to the port side, and if you're heading towards the stern, you should go to the starboard side."

"Hey? Lao Zhang, all right, you're taking on an apprentice?"

As they were talking, the two of them came to an escalator and met a veteran. Liu Jun took a look at the other's shoulder straps. Wow! A first-class sergeant! He was immediately in awe.

Zhang Peng moved to the side, and Liu Jun also moved to the side. When going up and down the escalator, you must follow the rule of going up first and then going down.

The sergeant major walked up the escalator and glanced at Liu Jun: "Young man, you just got on board."

"Yes!"

"Learn more from Lao Zhang. Even though he is fat, he still has something in his stomach." After saying that, the sergeant major walked quickly towards the cafeteria.

"Hey! Who are you calling fat?" Zhang Peng protested a few words before introducing them: "The one just now is the chief engineer, in charge of the engine room."

Zhang Peng briefly introduced the engine room and said no more. It is enough to know where the engine room is. Pilots will not run into the engine room for no reason. The places they go most often are the flight deck, hangar, and the cabin where the pilots live.

After turning a few corners, Zhang Peng brought Liu Jun to the hangar under the flight deck.

"This is our hangar. Aircraft maintenance and inspections are all done here."

Liu Jun glanced at the huge hangar, which was full of J15 carrier-based aircraft with folded wings. Among them were several two-seat versions of the J15S, and four or five newly commissioned J15Ts. The rest were all J15s, including the one he drove, No. [189].

Several ground crew members opened the cover of [189] and were checking the barrel and ammunition of the machine gun, wiping the cover that was blackened by gas. The barrel of the GSH30-1 machine gun was almost disposable. It had to be replaced after firing 150 rounds of ammunition. Even if Liu Jun had only fired 30 rounds, the ground crew still had to evaluate the barrel to decide whether to replace the machine gun; a ground crew member went into the air intake and carefully checked the engine blades to see if the blades were damaged or fatigued.

In hot weather, getting into a narrow air intake is not a comfortable job, but it is precisely because of the carefulness and attentiveness of the ground staff that the pilots have no worries. The combat effectiveness of the equipment depends entirely on logistics. Thanks to India's fancy plane crash, it taught a lesson to its colleagues.
