Arriving at the combat readiness duty room, there were already four people waiting, two of whom were on duty today, and the other two were pilots who had worked an all-night shift last night.

The combat readiness duty room is inseparable from people 24 hours a day, and the air conditioner may sound at any time, even in the early morning.

Generally speaking, empty feelings only appear during the day and rarely at night, let alone early in the morning.

However, things are just in case.

What if there really is an air conditioner in the early hours of the morning and no one is on combat readiness duty? Should I go to the pilot's apartment and call someone temporarily?

How much time had passed by the time the pilot got up from the bed, got dressed, rushed to the combat readiness room to change, and then the plane took off.

The day lilies should be cold now!

If a real war were to come suddenly, he might not even wait for heaven and report directly to the underworld in his sleep.

Therefore, combat readiness duty is a matter of twenty-four hours a day.

However, pilots on overnight shifts can be divided into different shifts, with one person resting and the other staying awake. But it is not as comfortable as you would imagine. Resting while wearing flying gear is definitely not as good as a warm quilt.

The 122nd Regiment only has two people on overnight duty, not four.

After changing into flight equipment in the dressing room next to the combat readiness duty room, and having a brief handover with the pilots who were on duty all night last night, Yang Luo officially started his first combat readiness duty.

Today Yang Luo and Ye Jianlong are on the deputy shift, and the main shift is two people from the third brigade.

Not far from the combat readiness duty room, a piece of land was planned as an apron for the fighter jets on duty.

At this time, the ground crew also started to be busy, driving the tractor to tow away the two fighters from last night and replacing them with the four fighters on duty today, including Yang Luo's No. 801 J-7g and Ye Jianlong's No. 802 J-7g.

These four fighters have all been inspected by maintenance personnel and confirmed to have no problems and are ready to take off at any time.

Today's fighter planes are obviously different. When Yang Luo was training in the past, the fighter planes did not have additional weapons. The only weapon that could be used was a 30-1 30mm aerial cannon with only 60 rounds of ammunition.

The current 801 has a missile mounted under each wing on both sides, and a rocket launcher mounted under the belly.

Fighter aircraft on combat readiness duty must carry weapons.

After the fighter planes were parked, the power supply truck came over to assist the fighter planes in driving and started the aero engines of the four fighter planes in sequence.

The oil pipeline from the underground oil pipeline is directly connected to the fuselage, continuously replenishing high-performance aviation fuel for the fighter aircraft.

As soon as the air condition arises and the order comes, these auxiliary equipment will be removed immediately, and the pilot can directly slide out and take off at any time.

Fighters on combat readiness duty will not consider the issue of savings, but only the issue of efficiency. No matter how much aviation fuel is burned, it will not be a pity. We must ensure that the fighters on duty are always driving and shorten the take-off time as much as possible.

Fighter planes are fleeting.

Speaking of which, Yang Luo had only flown the aircraft carrying weapons twice. When he was still at the base, he once hit air targets and once hit ground targets.

Combat readiness duty is a very boring and boring thing. You can't leave the combat readiness duty room. You can only chat or read books to pass the time.

Half an hour later, pilots came to the combat readiness duty room one after another to change their uniforms. They all had training missions and were about to fly into the sky.

Watching them coming in and out, and looking at himself, Yang Luo's eyes were filled with envy:

What a wonderful thing it is to have a flight mission.

Yang Luo temporarily forgot that before today, he could fly three times a day, flying for more than twenty days in a row.

Finally, at around ten o'clock, the air conditioner siren sounded rapidly over the station.

The warning light in the combat readiness duty room was also flashing red. The two pilots on duty picked up their flight helmets and rushed out of the combat readiness duty room.

When the alarm went off, Yang Luo was a little excited, but he immediately thought that he was the deputy squad member and it was not his turn yet, so he instantly withered.

For second-in-command pilots on combat readiness duty, their turn will only come if there are more than two air conditions.

Yang Luo stood up and stretched his body, saying, "It's so boring. When will it be our turn?"

"What? You can't stay still so soon?" Ye Jianlong raised his head and said, looking away from the book.

"Captain Ye, do you think we should discuss it with the two of them and replace us next time if we have time? Is that feasible?" Yang Luo asked.

"Ask yourself, if it were you, would you agree?" Ye Jianlong did not answer, but asked instead.

Yang Luo was disappointed when he heard Ye Jianlong's question, because if it were him, he would definitely reject it without even thinking about it.

Seeing that Yang Luo did not answer, Ye Jianlong continued: "For the regiment, the combat readiness duty is very stressful due to empty situations from time to time. But the pressure for the pilots is that the duty is too frequent, and the combat readiness duty is too boring. Therefore, the combat readiness duty is very stressful.

All the pilots hope to have more peace and quiet while on duty. Not only will it not be boring, but they will also make money. It kills two birds with one stone."

Yang Luo knew that the money Ye Jianlong was talking about was the flight hour subsidy, which pilots generally call lever fees. Just because they pull the lever of the aircraft, they start to make money.

Yang Luo changed the topic and asked: "Team Ye, how much is the rod fee for the J-7G?"

"Three hundred." Ye Jianlong raised three fingers and said with a smile: Why are you worried about the rod fee so soon?"

"No." Yang Luo denied, "I just want to know, isn't the end of the month coming soon? Wages will be paid soon, so I want to know how it is calculated."

"Your salary this month will be very high, but by next month, your salary will drop sharply. You should be mentally prepared and don't get emotional then." Ye Jianlong reminded.

Yang Luo nodded and said, "I understand."

Yang Luo knew that this month's salary would indeed be very high, possibly more than anyone in the 122nd Regiment, and most of it would be spent on tie rod fees.

A pilot's salary is composed of basic salary, pilot level allowance, flying hour allowance, plus various other subsidies.

The basic salary depends on the administrative level. For example, if Yang Luo is a company-level lieutenant, he will receive the same basic salary as company-level officers in other units. The basic salary for cadres across the country is basically the same, regardless of military branch.

If an officer has a specific position, there will be an additional job allowance, which is the case for Ye Jianlong. His position is battalion captain, which is equivalent to a battalion commander.

Adding up the various projects, plus the rod fee of 300 an hour, Yang Luo estimated that his salary this month would be tens of thousands.

But by next month, a lot of flight time has been reduced, and a lot of rod fees have been reduced. Whether the salary received will exceed 10,000 is still a question.

The monthly salary is about 10,000 yuan, which is the salary level of most pilots in the army.

If your monthly income suddenly changes from tens of thousands to less than 10,000, people with poor mental qualities will really not be able to accept it, and may choose to retire and join civil aviation.

Compared with the income of civil aviation pilots, the income of military pilots is really low. The annual income of civil aviation pilots can easily reach hundreds of thousands to millions.

Yang Luo doesn't attach too much importance to salary. His family's living standard is decent, not enough, but definitely more than enough.

Yang Luo's character is that he either doesn't fight or wants to be first.

This is also the reason why Yang Luo wanted to take the aviation university entrance examination in the first place, because aviation university is the best among all aviation schools.

The subsequent hard study is also due to personality. After arriving at the Haicheng training base and experiencing the beauty of flying, another reason was added.
