About This Novel
More than 100 years have passed in the history of human aviation. However, the difficulties and risks we encounter in scientific research and test flights today are no less than those encountered more than 100 years ago. Test pilots are like trainers who tame a fierce horse. They are usually faced with a brand-new fighter aircraft whose habits are unknown. Their job is to explore the quality and performance of the fighter aircraft during actual driving, keenly perceive its maneuverability and driving feel, become familiar with its weapon systems and control links, and then help designers and engineers complete the improvement, debugging and finalization of the fighter aircraft. Zhou Ziquan, chief engineer of the China Flight Test Research Institute, once said: Good airplanes are made by flying and testing.
