When Yang Luo arrived at Hangar No. 1, Gou Quan, the leader of the No. 1 Squadron, was scanning around No. 801 with an instrument.

"Hey, little Prince Jiali is here." Gou Quan looked back at Yang Luo, said with a smile, and then continued working. He had been informed by the team leader that Yang Luo was coming to study machine maintenance, so he was not surprised.

Yang Luo watched Gou Quan busy with interest, and did not pay attention to Gou Quan's teasing. He asked: "Captain Gou, what instrument are you holding in your hand?"

"Metal flaw detector." Gou Quan said, "The aircraft that your Little Prince afterburner flies over must be carefully inspected. Don't be careless."

Yang Luo touched his nose and was speechless, as if he was a prodigal.

"I said Yang Luo, can you take it easy in the future and let us reduce the workload?" Gou Quan stopped what he was doing and looked at Yang Luo and asked.

"Captain Gou, I don't agree with what you said. I flew according to the operating procedures and didn't mess around." Yang Luo was a little unhappy.

If the deputy commander in charge of aircraft maintenance had said this, Yang Luo could only ignore it, but Gou Quan would be suspected of exceeding his authority if he said this.

When Gou Quan saw Yang Luo's expression, he knew that Yang Luo was thinking wrong. He patted the 801 Good Fighter and asked, "Do you know how much service life your aircraft engine has left?"

"I don't know." Yang Luo shook his head. He was not a machine operator, so how could he know.

"In the past twenty days or so, the service life of the engine has been reduced sharply. If you fly like this, you can last until the end of the year at most before you need to replace the engine. If you fly afterburner maneuvers like the 845 midway, will you be able to fly until the end of the year?

I don’t know.” Gou Quan explained, “Every time you get off the plane, we have to check it carefully, especially the engine.”

"Is it that exaggerated?" Yang Luo said sheepishly, knowing that he had misunderstood Gou Quan.

Yang Luo knew that although the regiment had a backup aircraft, it was not the J-7g, but an older version, the J-7e. If the aircraft was overhauled, the only option would be to fly the J-7e or transfer backup aircraft from the 121st and 123rd regiments.

, they do still have a small number of J-7g backup machines.

"It's not an exaggeration at all. Think about it for yourself, when did you go up there and didn't use afterburner a few times? You don't know that afterburner damages the engine the most." Gou Quan said, bent down and continued to use the metal flaw detector to inspect the engine.

Are there any hidden metal injuries on the body?

Yang Luo didn't want to continue this topic. It was too embarrassing, so he asked instead: "Captain Gou, should I learn machine maintenance directly from you?"

"Do you really want to learn?" Gou Quan raised his head, looked at Yang Luo's serious expression, and asked seriously.

"Really." Yang Luo nodded.

"Maintenance is very strict and there is no room for carelessness." Gou Quan continued to say seriously.

"Industries related to flight are all strict and don't tolerate sloppiness." Yang Luo shrugged and said seriously, "Isn't it?"

Gou Quan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay, after I finish this work, I will take you to find a good master. Let's make an agreement first. Whether he teaches you or not depends on your own ability."

This time it was Yang Luo's turn to be stunned. After coming to his senses, he asked: "Captain Gou, didn't you teach me?"

Gou Quan said: "I don't have time to teach you. There are a lot of things waiting for me to deal with. But I won't cheat you. The master I found for you is much more skilled than me."

"Who is it? Is there anyone in the aircraft maintenance department who is better than you?" Yang Luo flattered him.

"Don't worry, you will know when you see him. I can guarantee you that the first time you see him, you will believe that his skills are better than mine." After Gou Quan finished speaking, he bent down and entered.

Go under the belly of the aircraft and continue to explore whether there are hidden metal wounds.

By the time Gou Quan inspected the entire fuselage to see if there were hidden metal damage, more than twenty minutes had passed.

After turning off the metal flaw detector and saying a few words to an operator, Gou Quan said, "Let's go, I'll take you to find the master."

"Okay." Yang Luo responded and hurriedly followed.

We boarded the commuter car parked outside the hangar, with Yang Luo as the co-pilot and Gou Quan in the driver's seat. Gou Quan was a maintenance man and was qualified to drive a car.

Yang Luo looked at Gou Quan enviously.

According to the unwritten regulations of the aviation force, pilots are prohibited from driving, including but not limited to cars, motorcycles, electric vehicles, etc.

This is for safety reasons. It is not easy for the army to train a pilot, and it cannot be damaged in a traffic accident.

Another reason is the issue of driving habits. The driving of an airplane is completely different from that of a car. Pilots tend to subconsciously drive the car according to the driving habits of airplanes; and the speed of the vehicle is too slow, so pilots are particularly prone to speeding.

Gou Quan's driving skills were quite good, and the commuter car went smoothly until it reached the door of the repair shop.

Yang Luo had never been to the aircraft repair shop of the 122nd Regiment, and pilots rarely came to this place.

There is only one kind of pilot who will come to this aircraft repair shop, and that is if his aircraft needs major repairs and he comes to inquire about the progress of the repairs. Generally, minor problems are solved in the hangar and will not be dragged to the repair shop.

For example, right now, there are two aircraft parked in the repair shop. One is Ye Jianlong's No. 802, and the other is No. 845. The engine needs to be replaced. The culprit is Yang Luo.

"Old horse." Gou Quan shouted loudly as soon as he got out of the car.

"Here." In the repair shop, on the side that 802 couldn't see, a man came out, holding maintenance tools in his hand.

This is a veteran who looks to be almost fifty years old. His work clothes and white labor protection gloves are stained with black oil.

Yang Luo was convinced at first glance that what Gou Quan said was right. This veteran's skills were really higher than Gou Quan's.

Because of the military rank worn by this veteran.

There are four turns, three thick and one thin.

Yang Luo was deeply shocked by the military rank worn by this veteran.

This is a first-class sergeant major, who is comparable to a giant panda in the army.

It is not difficult to become a non-commissioned officer, but it is extremely difficult to go all the way to the rank of sergeant major, even more difficult than to hold the rank of general.

There are very few first-class sergeants in the army. Everyone has served for at least 27 years. They can be said to be the ancestors of soldiers.

This is the real king of war, a general without the rank of general.

When the general sees him, he will salute first, hold the other person's hand with both hands, and call him "old squad leader" affectionately.

His salary is that of a full-time soldier, and his family members are assigned work and a house, but he is still a soldier after all, so he is not provided with a car.

As for Yang Luo's salary at the company level, it's a few levels apart, and it's a huge difference. Even if the tie-rod fee is included, under normal circumstances, the salary is not necessarily higher than others, let alone other benefits.

Yang Luo never expected that there would be a soldier king and a first-class sergeant hidden in the maintenance brigade of the 122nd Regiment. He never expected that Gou Quan would introduce him to him as his master.

Yang Luo has been with the regiment for almost a month, so he can't say that he knows all the people, but he has basically met them. Among all the non-commissioned officers, the highest rank is only a third-level sergeant major, who is also the maintenance officer of the maintenance brigade.

But where did this soldier come from, and he seems to be from the No. 1 Maintenance Squadron. He has never seen anyone thanking "Doudou Doudou for being cute" for the reward. Some readers and friends commented that it would be a joke to put it in front of the main text, then
