今天，我要真正坐進駕駛艙，親手操控飛機。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsTRSvw5zK
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnxbGnnm9K
一早來到學校，Leo 已經站在門口等我。他看到我，笑了笑：「早晨，我接下來要給你一些飛行裝備。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHEDtX5cqL
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlz5qBF6uEx
他轉身進入辦公室，拿出幾樣東西遞給我：「這是你的耳機、Kneeboard，還有你的 Pilot Logbook。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA2HiM9UxU
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMJ44OelaJ
耳機比我想像中更重，厚實的耳罩設計用來隔絕發動機的噪音，還帶有麥克風，方便在飛行中與塔台和教官通話。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNFrYupE6r
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwJB61b482
Kneeboard 是一塊可以綁在大腿上的小夾板，上面可以放Flight log、航圖或飛行計劃表，讓飛行員隨時查閱重要資訊。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5imhdEy4ib
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQUJSSGVHy
最後，Logbook，這是每位飛行員最重要的紀錄之一，每次的飛行時數、飛行詳情都會記錄在裡面，未來的飛行都將被記錄下來，見證我的飛行旅程。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP2UGYRyse
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIRsqfyAO5
「這是你的第一本 Logbook，好好保管，它將記錄你的每一次飛行經歷。」Leo 拍了拍我的肩膀，露出鼓勵的笑容。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkteVZ8GOu
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53oPnH7uto
我低頭看著這些裝備，內心湧起一種難以形容的情感。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeJPjn0nvt
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD5P1uVQu0
「準備好你的第一次飛行了嗎？」Leo 笑著問。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcxWGd8K26
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgk1yQLgbK
我抬起頭，緊握著手中的 Logbook，點了點頭：「準備好了。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXADZGAeNV
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVClngf74na
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71dPkDAJzB
Leo 卻笑了笑，搖搖頭：「你還沒準備好。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7dEdzAFew
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p0KgbVT3g
我愣了一下，還沒來得及問為什麼，他便拿出一張紙遞給我：「每個機師在上飛機之前，都要做 I'M SAFE checklist。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtS1J7UGcv
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZMksZwy6e
我低頭看著紙上的字母，Leo解釋：「這是自我檢查表，確保自己在飛行前的身心狀態是安全的。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55PE1uuM4y
I'M SAFE Checklist：171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMeCKaNm2t
I – Illness（生病）：你今天身體狀況如何？有沒有任何不舒服？171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkglLr39eJ

171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gXy4PcGVI
我笑了笑，拍了拍肚子：「放心，我一早已經吃過了。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIN3ey9RPk
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D00b1OBrW
Leo 聽後點點頭：「很好，然後就是飛機。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbHABZ6R9w
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9vSDEnNpf
「我們在發動飛機之前要進行文件檢查，它和 I'M SAFE 一樣重要。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh9RsnUdaR

Leo 笑著說：「這些都是法律要求的文件，沒有它們，飛機就不能合法飛行。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM8ODTwXYq
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPGn6tj7vN
我點點頭：「明白。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh7acBwmgl
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22NC2bPid7
Leo 帶著我做了一次 Preflight，確認機身、機翼、螺旋槳、油量等一切正常後，他打開機艙門：「來吧，坐上去。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6LLQh6eAT
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIktAoaIwo1
我握住扶手，緩緩坐進駕駛座。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSrUClMrwR
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uEJLVADF7
機艙並不寬敞，但座椅包覆感很強，前方的儀表板上排滿了各種儀器和開關，操縱桿靜靜地立在眼前。我深吸一口氣，手掌輕輕覆在操縱桿上，這是真正屬於飛行員的位置。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOakp9BaIko
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXwvUEXkqB
Leo 坐在副駕駛座，鎖好安全帶：「首先要調較好座椅，直到你可以清楚望見 engine cowling。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdSE4TCZF1
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuR67fSKQee
我低頭看了一下自己的位置，然後試著調整座椅，把自己稍微往前移了一點，視線變得更開闊，發動機罩就在眼前。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKMF31RD4E
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPUfQyesgF
「不錯，這個位置就剛剛好。」Leo 點點頭：「現在，我們來開啟飛機的電源。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCV6JP7BGy
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTQhgUMaeK
「首先，打開 Master Battery 和 Alternator。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbwhynpMxG
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNsZzGJNhB
「接下來，打開 Fuel Pump 和 Magneto，確保燃油點火系統正常。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx5uUHrP2D
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMhZtH6pfB
「然後是 Engine Prime，這一步讓燃油進入發動機，確保點火時能順利啟動。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9peKyg1e0l
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb5iijMuch
「最後，準備發動引擎，手放在 Throttle上，輕輕推開一點，然後按下 Engine Start。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8VdIufdi1
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VZvX3YzZD
我深吸一口氣，按下 Start，下一秒——171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ8WgVMTpM
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf6lT8lpbz
「嘭——」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizYiLtGf5s
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXxnX11PJC
螺旋槳瞬間轉動，發動機轟鳴，整架飛機微微震動起來，儀表板上的指針開始跳動。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLizfQsCSE
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4DZaHCPux
Leo 露出滿意的笑容：「很好，飛機啟動成功，現在我們準備滑行到Runup area。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIhsvLJ9hR
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdHkA9XvgI
我跟著 Leo 的指示，讓飛機緩緩滑行到指定區域。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvVPH9wyf0
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqOMNdefzo
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiKXExeRSq
我們首先調整無線電頻率，聆聽 ATIS，確認當前的天氣、風速和跑道使用情況。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwsBSNosJZ
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5fnY1vSwq
到達 Runup Area 後，Leo 示意我停下飛機，然後開始進行 Runup Checks。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE8kSG2LyC
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvRUlf3y8d
我依照指示調整油門，看著引擎轉速表穩定在 1800rpm，Leo 迅速檢查Magnetos、油壓、油溫，Carb Heat 以及其他關鍵系統，確保飛機處於最佳狀態。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVGsG1RORb
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqzjZC5kry
然後我們檢查襟翼設定、Compass DI alignment、Mixture full rich、方向舵和飛行控制面，確保所有操作正常。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Z6Cgp6UYN
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr94IoUlOJ
最後，Leo 拿起無線電，向塔台進行 Radio Call：「Invercargill Tower, EBF , With information G, QNH 1018, Request taxi departure Thornbury Training Area, POB 2, Dual.」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltxlx9OPiD
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpj4IwoApy1
塔台很快回應，批准我們滑行至跑道：「Invercargill Tower, EBF, G confirmed. Taxi Backtrack Line up Seal 22 via A cross Grass 22. Cleared to Thornbury Training Area 4500feet or below.」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5v3FgKuoO
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bf4sRe0YK
Leo 看了我一眼，嘴角帶著笑意：「你來回覆吧。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQ0YDqXgjh
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3dCTBkx5o
我愣住了，完全不知道該怎麼回應。一長串的術語和指令在我腦中盤旋，我努力試圖抓住關鍵字：「Err... Clear... taxi... 22？」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCJ82ei9a6
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshyun4X530
見我猶豫，Leo 笑了笑，接過無線電，語氣沉穩地 read back：「Taxi backtrack line up Seal 22 via A, cross Grass 22, cleared Thornbury Training Area 4500 feet or below. EBF.」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8tm6DkloZ
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8ChbDKghG
塔台確認：「EBF, read back correct.」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUT74jEpWF
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy5RtBmQ9R
Leo 放下無線電，轉頭看著我：「沒關係，第一次聽不懂是正常的，Radio calls是一種習慣，慢慢來。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VAprUAH01
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYrSx6GPJC
我苦笑：「這比開飛機還難。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd5XnLOY85
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZciOLGCTW
「哈哈，有些人確實這麼覺得。」Leo 調整油門，讓飛機開始滑行：「我們現在 taxi to runway 22，你可以嘗試用 rudder 來 taxi 飛機。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT65awPL9o
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrRiJgdXml
我調整踏板，讓飛機沿著滑行道前進，逐漸適應這種腳下控制的感覺。不久後，我們來到 Seal 22 的起點，Leo 將飛機 line up 在跑道上，等待塔台的指示。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcFDc0DczK
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCdQMzzHG0
無線電傳來塔台的聲音：「EBF, Wind 270/12kt, right turn after departure, Seal 22 cleared for takeoff.」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljZHdozp2L
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jIcUdsAJu
Leo 轉頭看我，微微一笑：「好了，這就是起飛的時刻。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPKtgRNx8L
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzylmCSXj9
我一隻手握住操縱桿，另一隻手放在油門上，緩緩將油門推到底。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERPobm5gc4
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6UhFb2t9S
發動機的轟鳴聲瞬間變得震耳欲聾，飛機開始在跑道上加速，機頭微微抬起，風聲在機艙外呼嘯而過。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeHV7AzKzw
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPxPxS82Vm
我盯著外面，Leo 的聲音冷靜而穩定：「Airspeed alive，More right rudder，55 knots，back pressure。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNHQm7sB90
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmNEMKc3Si
我輕輕向後拉動操縱桿，機頭慢慢抬起，飛機逐漸脫離地面，離開跑道。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGaPo3ZN9o
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24ETc4dpuA
這一刻，我真的飛起來了。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSPl5oCO70
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk1Vs11SzC
機輪輕輕離地，我感覺身體微微一沉，像是飛機掙脫了地面的束縛，開始滑翔進入空中。跑道在視線下方迅速縮小，機翼下的機場設施與草地漸漸遠去，一切變得安靜而穩定。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJtCUgWwDN
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN78TQrxDe4
飛機持續爬升，我透過擋風玻璃望出去，天空變得開闊，視野遠比地面上來得遼闊清晰。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLpsgCy0j5
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NJiVBtwGN
我深吸了一口氣，心裡湧上一種難以形容的感動。這是我第一次用這樣的角度看世界，不再被地面所限制，而是從空中俯瞰。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fC2MEgPWI
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmpyMRAc87
耳機裡傳來 Leo 的聲音：「Welcome to the sky.」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxHfPEyofj
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IJ7V8rMoZ
我沒有回應，只是看著眼前的景色，靜靜地感受著飛行的自由。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTmh2ZdukV
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE49TcVRp7
今天，是我人生中感覺最活著的一天。
