The interface of the "Sky Eye Cloud Inspection" on the tablet and the LCD screen of the A-39 "Big Mouth Monster" simultaneously displayed prompts.
"First, perform a quick self-check to examine each integrated module of the aircraft. If there are no issues, proceed with specialized in-depth tests, focusing on sensors, communication of avionics systems, flight control modules, and engine components."
As a young man and a university student, Chen Fei quickly became familiar with the basic operations of the professional maintenance software "Sky Eye Cloud Inspection" under the one-on-one guidance of Xiao Ming, the chief airplane mechanic.
The basic maintenance work for the A-39B "Big Mouth Monster" light turboprop attack aircraft did not require disassembling the aircraft into pieces. By connecting a dedicated data cable to the on-board computer's maintenance module, the tablet could obtain data sent from sensors in each component, giving a general understanding of the aircraft's current state.
If a fault was discovered, it could be described in one sentence, "replace whatever is broken, So-easy!"
The "Big Mouth Monster" had a high degree of integration, even incorporating quick-release designs, allowing modules and assemblies to be easily disassembled and replaced without many tools and equipment.
As a professional aviation maintenance software, "Sky Eye Cloud Inspection" had even more advanced and complex functions. With the limited access that Chen Fei, a rookie, had just acquired, he could only use the basic mode. Above that, there were intermediate, advanced, and Siege Lion modes.
After instructing Chen Fei on how to use "Sky Eye Cloud Inspection," Xiao Ming said very seriously, "Always remember the most important 'Hein's Rule': behind every severe accident, there are inevitably 29 minor accidents, 300 near misses, and 1000 potential hazards."
If a fighter pilot sacrifices himself in an aerial duel, even if the plane is destroyed and the pilot is killed, it can only be attributed to his lesser skills, fate, or destiny.
But allowing a sick fighter to take off, thereby causing unnecessary damage or even casualties, is murder and cannot be forgiven.
A plane flying for a minute in the sky requires ten times that in maintenance on the ground, and nothing can be overlooked.
The job of the maintenance team is to ensure that the Sky Knights go into battle with reliable weapons and come back alive as much as possible.
Following the instructions of Xiao Ming, the chief mechanic, Chen Fei carried a dedicated data cable and plugged it into every aircraft in Hangar 1, not sparing even the two armed helicopters.

"Sky Eye Cloud Inspection" supports not only the A-39B "Big Mouth Monster" light turboprop attack aircraft but also includes hundreds of other aircraft models, incorporating most of the modified models in the series.
Choosing the most remote idle workspace next to a workbench, Chen Fei, with a furrowed brow, held a thick "Big Mouth Monster" technical manual (A) and compared the data just retrieved by the "Sky Eye Cloud Inspection" software on his tablet with it, when someone pushing a small cart walked in.
"Sunflower seeds, peanuts, beer, airplane cups, space cups, anyone interested?"
Sunflower seeds, peanuts, beer, uh... it seems like something strange got mixed in.
In fact, even condoms are military supplies. Anything related to the military isn't strange; it's just uncommon.
Chen Fei's ears pricked up, and he looked up towards the sound to see a simple-faced man with single eyelids pushing a cart full of items around the hangar.
"No, really, I don't need it, thank you!"
He firmly refused to take the two cups being pushed at him as if they were hot coals.
The two pushed and shoved for a while, until Pu Aihua finally gave up, sighing, "There's really no helping it!"
Just when Chen Fei thought this guy was about to give up, Pu Aihua turned around and brought out a small nest made of interlaced twigs and grass.
"This is a magical beast egg that was given as an extra gift when I was stocking up. It's really free, please accept it, otherwise you'd be disrespecting me, Pu Aihua, and I would be very upset, which could have serious consequences."
It was as if Chen Fei's refusal to accept the free bird egg was a personal slight against Pu Aihua.
A magical beast egg?
Chen Fei, bemused, looked at the naturally made bird's nest, centered around a soft greenish egg no bigger than that of a quail. It was just an ordinary bird's nest and egg, yet another instance of a merchant's gift of deceit!
Magic beasts were a specialty of the Cangqiong Realm across from the "Halo" Dimensional Gate; even the weakest magical beast had a significant price. Didn't this business-savvy guy have any clue about that?
Not even someone with a mine at home would casually gift a magical beast egg to a person they just met for the first time. That was worse than wasting money, sheer folly.
"If it hatches into a powerful magical beast, you'll have made a fortune."
But Pu Aihua, with full sincerity and a smile that brooked no refusal, again aggressively handed over the nest to Chen Fei, along with an extra lovely paper box.
If he didn't accept it today, there would be no end to it.
"Alright! I'll accept this gift, thank you, Brother Pu."
Having no other choice, Chen Fei reluctantly took the feather-light charming little nest.
If he didn't accept it now, the other party would surely persist, potentially impacting his work.
This was his first day on the job, and if he didn't make a good impression on his bosses, his future might not look so bright; he might even get metaphorically tripped up.
"Open-hearted, you get busy, I won't disturb you anymore. If you need something, just come find me!"
Pu Aihua nodded firmly, patted Chen Fei's arm, claiming non-disturbance while having taken up several minutes more before finally happily pushing his cart away from hangar one to continue pestering other departments.
With the bird nest in hand, Chen Fei wore a helpless expression, wondering what exactly had just happened.
Was he just bamboozled?
