就这样被你征服—揭秘新加坡空军特技飞行队黑骑士

8月9日国庆节中午12点，顶着大太阳，我们全家到滨海堤坝近距离欣赏空军特技表演。黑骑士(Black Knights)飞行队用的是F16战斗机，一共有六名飞行员。平时他们都在空军服役，只有在航空展或者庆典活动前几个月才组队训练。飞行队在25分钟内，进行了22种特技飞行。神乎奇技!!! 我这军事盲就这样被征服，回家后上网找资料，把各种特技的名字斗胆用中文翻译了一遍后，并试着对网上找到的黑骑士图片进行很外行的解说。

图一：黑骑士飞行员的队长为梁志忠中校，其他成员包括德夫达特·萨西德哈伦上尉、陈如德上尉、阮立辉上尉、林师煌少校和张洁宁上尉。这六位都是飞行教官，累计总飞行时间均在一千四百小时至四千小时之间。

Opening: Delta Fly By 六机：三角队形通过，拉升至高空翻筋斗

The show begins with the six Black Knights flying past the show centre in a Delta formation, before pulling up for a loop.

#1: Opening Curtain 六机：高空扭滚，扇形俯冲开幕

At the top of the loop, the Black Knights twist out and fan downwards for the opening curtain.

#2: Classic Hit > Opposed Cuban 双机：对飞-古巴八字

The solo pilots Black Knights 5 and 6 approach head-on from either side, before narrowly manoeuvring away and missing each other. Both aircraft will then pull up and execute two aileron rolls before pulling back down towards each other, to complete the Opposed Cuban.

#3: Aileron Roll Hit 双机：横滚对飞

The solos then approach from opposing sides and once again fly head on. They will then simultaneously execute an aileron roll away from each other as they converge at show centre.

#4: Lab Loop 四机：菱形编队筋斗

The Diamond-4 – Black Knights 1 to 4 – will fly adjacent to each other and pull up into a loop. At the top of the loop, the Black Knights will transition into a tight Ruby formation.

#5: High Speed Pass 单机：高速通过

As the name implies – a high-speed fly by executed by Black Knight 6 demonstrates the aircraft’s immense power.

#6: Chevron > Twisted Loop > Spear 六机：人字队形拉升–扭滚–镖形

In a Chevron formation, the Black Knights pull up into the vertical for a loop. They will then transition into a spear formation as they exit the loop and fly past the crowd.

#7: Spear > Barrel Roll > Swan 六机：镖形-桶滚-天鹅队形

From the Spear formation, the Black Knights commence a barrel roll to the right, during which they will transition into a Swan formation.

#8: Hexa Stack > Loop > Delta 六机：两排拉升–筋斗-三角队形

Flying in two rows of three aircraft, the Black Knights once again pull up into a loop and transit at the top of the loop into a Delta formation.

#9: Sapphire Fly By > Gull Split 六机：蓝宝石队形侧飞–双翼分飞

The Black Knights will fly by once again in front of the crowd – this time in a tighter, almost gapless Sapphire formation. As they fly to the right of the show, Black Knights 5 and 6 pull up and roll away from the formation executing the gull split.

#10: Criss-Cross 四机：十字交叉

Black Knights 1 to 4 fly head-on to the crowd. They then turn towards each other and converge at a central point before splitting upwards and outwards in four different directions.

#11: Needle cross 双机：绣针交叉

The two solos approach head on to the crowd in a line abreast formation. They subsequently perform a derry turn into each to converge at a central point.

#12: Low & Slow > Muscle Climb 双机：超低速飞行–高速垂直拉升

The solos then reposition to showcase the slow speed manoeuvrability of the F-16 by flying next to each other at the slowest possible speed. At the show centre, they will select afterburners in sync to perform an aggressive climb out vertically.

#13: Way of the Dragon 四机：龙行在天(梯队排列，逐机拉升，螺旋飞离)

The Diamond-4, flying in an echelon formation, will pull up in sequence and roll away from the crowd, drawing a helical pattern with the smoke trails.

#14: Vertical Spiral 双机：一机垂直翻滚上行，一机绕烟螺旋尾随

Black Knight 5 approaches head-on to the crowd. He then pulls straight up into the vertical and commences to roll his aircraft to create a spiralling effect with his smoke trail. Following closely behind, Black Knight 6 pulls up and pierces the spiral with his smoke trail.

#15: Twinkle Roll 四机：菱形360度同步滚

Four Black Knights execute a synchronised 360-roll in a Diamond formation.

#16: Mirror Pass 双机：镜像叠飞

The solos fly past in a mirrored stack, one inverted on top of the other.

#17: Double Heart 四机：双层心形

Black Knights 1 to 4, flying in a Diamond formation, pull up and split to create two hearts with their smoke trails.

#18: Inverted Helix 双机：一机倒飞前行，一机绕烟螺旋

Black Knight 5 flies inverted from left to right while Black Knight 6 spirals around his smoke trail.

#19: Knife Edge 刀锋(单机：侧飞)

Black Knight 5 rolls his aircraft 90 degrees on its side displaying the paint scheme and national flag on top of the aircraft to the crowd as he flies from the right to the left.

#20: Quad Roll 单机：360度四次翻滚

Black Knight 6 commences to execute four 360 degrees rolls to his aircraft as he flies past the crowd from right to left.

#21: Double Inverted Wrap 四机：双机倒飞，双机交叉螺旋绕滚

Two Black Knights fly inverted in close formation past the crowd whilst another two spiral around them in a criss-cross pattern, maintaining positions diametrically opposite each other. This forms a double helix.

#22: Dedication Pass 六机：菱形敬礼(四机菱形侧飞，双机螺旋绕滚)

Four Black Knights fly across the crowd in a Diamond formation while the solos spiral around their smoke trail.

Closing: Finale Burst 六机：压轴扇形
