Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1395 Never act blindly
Shangluo took over the joystick and everyone stood behind the cab.

"What? Why are you looking at me?" Shangluo noticed several gazes behind him and couldn't help but turn around to ask.

"I'm scared." Victoria told the truth. "I'm scared that if you shake your hand, you'll throw us all into the sea."

"Ha." Shang Luo sneered, "It's just a plane, who can fly it? Hey, what does this button do?"

Captain Lin stood up quickly: "This is the landing gear, this is the joystick, this is the rudder, and this is the throttle valve - good! You have learned how to fly an airplane, now come and fly this hypersonic near-space vehicle!"

"Yes, that's it." Shangluo nodded.

"Zhu Ling, I'm scared." Victoria hugged Zhu Ling's arms.

"Don't worry, don't worry, don't be afraid." Zhu Ling touched Victoria's head and comforted him like stroking a cat.

【Why didn't you tell Phaethon? 】

"Because even if I don't tell her, she will protect me, hehe."

"Alas," Phaethon sighed, pressed their shoulders and asked them to return to their seats first, and then he returned behind Shangluo.

"Don't worry!" Shangluo gave a thumbs up.

"I only have one request," Phaethon said, "You, don't act recklessly."

"understand."

"Then I'll go back." She turned around and sat back in the cabin, closing the cockpit door behind her, so that out of sight, out of mind.

Captain Lin, who stayed where he was, looked at the door, then looked at Shangluo: "Xian, so virtuous."

"What is Xian?"

"I'm talking about you, Lord Shang Tian. You are really virtuous. Virtuous means having many talents. Having so many people supporting you behind the scenes, doesn't that mean you are talented? Having many talents means being virtuous."

"That seems to be true. But anyway. Am I really okay? This is the joystick, this is the rudder, this is the throttle, and I can drive?"

“Alas.” Captain Lin slapped his thigh. “As long as you get the plane off the ground, you’re already 90% successful! The flying process is only 10%.”

"What about landing?"

"Landing? Only a real man would not land. A real man would land on the ground. Don't worry, you will understand it naturally when the time comes. If you come up, you will land, and if you land, you will have it. You will figure it out yourself."

[Don't worry about this little eagle landing method. In fact, I will be responsible for the take-off and landing. You just need to give some general instructions. ]

"What do you mean?"

[It means - you see, an octopus has many tentacles, right? But the octopus's brain is not responsible for giving precise instructions to all the tentacles. It only gives a rough judgment, and then the tentacles will handle the target themselves. Therefore, when the octopus tentacles are separated from the body, they can express quite strong activity. Some people with strange tastes like to eat octopus tentacles raw, and some people even get their throats clogged because of them.]

"Okay. You mean you can fly the plane even if I take my hands off the steering column? Am I redundant?"

[Ah, Xian means being talented. No matter how many talents you have, they are just 0s at the back. If there is no one at the front to start the 1, what is the use of having many 0s?] "You are surfing the Internet every day and you see some weird things, okay? That's what you said, and you are responsible for the flying part?"

[Don't worry. I've just read a lot of books. This is the joystick, this is the rudder, and this is the throttle. I also know that this plane has a backup hidden energy source that can temporarily enter space!]

"You don't have to go into space, just fly where you are suitable."

The Ninghe 2 is more suitable for flying at high altitudes in near-space, that is, at the edge of the atmosphere where the air is thin. The highly efficient torch-type deflagration engine on board only needs a small portion of the intake air to achieve extremely high speeds, and the thin air around it creates the necessary low resistance conditions for high speeds. This has basically reached the extreme of jet-powered flight, and it would be impolite to go any faster.

Such a powerful force naturally requires the manipulation of Qigong practitioners. Like many other places, Ninghe No. 2 can't even light a fire without the operation of Qigong practitioners.

The ignition process of this aircraft is also quite special - although it has been simplified a lot, it still requires the Qigong practitioner to infuse it with his own spiritual energy to temporarily make the jet of the Torch Engine reach its peak in order to establish the initial working conditions of the entire deflagration engine.

With one hand on the joystick and the other hand reaching for the throttle, Shangluo injected spiritual energy into the throttle while pushing it. At the same time, a series of devices occupying the co-pilot seat also moved together.

Ninghe 2 has a simple but efficient collaborative system. The inputs from the pilot and co-pilot will be compromised and an average value will be taken. Apollonia uses different inputs from Shangluo to achieve basic stability in flight.

With the help of Shangluo, mainly Apollonia's compromise operation, the fully fueled Ninghe 2 was successfully launched.

"Yes." Seeing that the situation was almost ready, Captain Lin nodded and said, "The landing gear can be retracted."

Shangluo reached out and pressed the landing gear button.

[Ah? Don't press it, I pressed it before.]

"Sorry." He pressed it again, causing the landing gear to retract.

[Hey hey hey! I saw you pressed the button I pressed, so I pressed it again. And you pressed it again! ]

"Shangluo, what are you doing???" Captain Lin suddenly heard the landing gear retracting and extending, "Are you fighting with the co-pilot?"

"Well, this kind of thing happens all the time. For example, when giving way in a narrow alley, it's not uncommon for two people to give way to the same direction at the same time."

"Alas," Captain Lin shook his head, "Just leave this matter to the co-pilot. Don't play with the landing gear button. You can break it if you keep pressing it."

"By the way, why is there no indicator light on the landing gear button?"

"Because after the last landing gear indicator light was haunted, we removed all the landing gear indicator lights to avoid everyone fighting with the light bulbs in the middle of the flight. So now everything is normal, at least it's not haunted again."

"How do we land without indicator lights?"

"Feel it, just feel it." Captain Lin gestured with the hand gesture of holding the joystick. "After lowering the landing gear, the aerodynamic configuration has changed. You can't be unable to feel it. At the very least, just ask the ground staff to help you check it out."

"Then the one behind"

"Once you reach the predetermined altitude, you can relax the control. Originally, you can do your own thing after handing it over to the autopilot. But according to your own requirements, it is better for you to sit here and wait. The destination of this flight is Attica Airport in Athens, which is still a short distance away from our destination."
