Learning to fly
Liu Boming
Go to Air Force Changchun Flight Academy (todayAir Force Aviation University）The day before study, both parents and teachers went to the station to see Liu Boming off.Zhang Fulin said to him, "Work hard. As long as you continue to work hard as you were strong in high school, you won't be wrong in the future. If you make progress, write to me. If you fall behind, don't write."
Later, whenever he made progress, Liu Boming would write a letter to his respected teacher.
Zhang Fulin said that Liu Boming's letters are usually very long.In the letter, he mentioned that the training was hard, but each time he would follow a sentence: "It was hard during the training, but I can endure this pain. Please believe me, teacher."
Liu Zhisheng, his father, said that Liu Boming had just arrived in the army and would run 10000 meters every morning to exercise.Liu Boming once told him that sometimes he really didn't want to run in the middle of the journey, but he still stuck to it.Later I got into the habit of not running ten thousand meters one day.
fromAir Force Changchun Flight AcademyAfter arriving at Mudanjiang Chujiao Airport and then Jinzhou Flight Group, Liu Boming has always performed well.
In 1991, he began to fly alone and piloted the J-8 independently.
In 1998, he andZhai ZhigangHe was selected as one of the first Chinese astronauts.
Liu Zhisheng was once inBeijing Aerospace CityI witnessed the hardships of my son's training: sitting in a high-altitude rotating chair, after more than 100 rounds of rapid rotation, I had to identify the direction when I came down;For a few days, you have to lie head down on a bed with an angle of 30 degrees for 24 hours.Recalling these scenes, the old man's eyes showed pity for his son.
Now, with the dream of millions of Chinese people, Liu Boming flies to space on Shenzhou VII.Liu Zhisheng was very excited when he heard the news. He said, "Without vain efforts, my son is good."
On September 25, 2008“God Seven”The three astronauts selected for launch have been identified, namelyZhai ZhigangLiu Boming andJing HaipengZhai Zhigang, an astronaut who was selected into the Shenzhou Program twice, carried out China's first space walk.That night, "Shenzhou VII" carried three astronauts in ChinaJiuquan Satellite Launch Centerblast off.

family life
In 1990, Liu Boming was engaged to his wife[2]
September 16, 1966, Heilongjiang ProvinceYi'an CountyIn an ordinary farmer's home in Dongsheng Village, Hongxing Township, a baby boy was born, and his father Liu Zhisheng named him Liu Boming.
Liu Boming has six brothers and sisters. He is the second in the family.In 1983, when Liu Boming was admitted to Yi'an No. 1 Middle School to study in high school, his family had to support five children at the same time. His father, who worked as a farmer for a living, was already very tired.
Liu Boming knew the difficulties at home and decided not to live on campus like other students, but to run away from school.My father gritted his teeth and spent more than 100 yuan to buy him a second-hand "Baishan" bicycle for his school trip.
The school is nearly 10 kilometers away from home, all of which are potholes and dirt roads.It's hard to walk in good weather, and it turns into black muddy water in rainy days, even it's hard to get feet.The road is icy and slippery in winter.Liu Zhisheng said that for three years in high school, Liu Boming got up at three or four o'clock every day. It was not bright when he left, and it was dark again when he returned home."It seems that I suffer a lot, but I can't help it. This is the condition at home."
Zhang Fulin, the head teacher of Liu Boming in his senior year and the current deputy director of the Education Bureau of Yi'an County, said that Yi'an was cold in winter. Even if it didn't snow, when Liu Boming rode to school, he was covered with white frost on his face, neck and body, and his clothes were wet, so he was nicknamed "Little Snowman" by his classmates.But no matter how hard the rain and snow, he never arrived late or left early.
Liu Zhisheng, his father, said that although it was hard to ride 20 kilometers every day, Liu Boming had never been ill in high school for three years, and he had never even caught a cold.Zhang Fulin said that the three years of high school had trained Liu Boming's strong physique and strong will, which laid a solid foundation for him in the future.
In 1985, the Air Force recruited pilots in Yi'an County. The strict physical quality standards made many applicants eliminated at the first level.Liu Boming passed the exam easily.I got zero in English in the middle school entrance exam.
Listening to her father's "Flying Dream", Liu Qianting was filled with pride[3]
Zhang Shuhe, Liu Boming's language teacher in the third day of the junior high school, said that Boming's performance had always been very good. At that time, the whole class only passed five or six senior high school exams, and he was one of them.But Zhang Shuhe also revealed that Liu Boming's English score in the middle school entrance exam was zero.It turned out that in the rural school where Liu Boming studied in junior high school, English classes were only open for half a year at that time, there was no regular English teacher, and all students were scored by English in the middle school entrance exam.But Liu Boming was admitted to the No. 1 Middle School of the county even though he didn't get a score for one of the schools.
Liu Boming has made great efforts in English learning since he entered high school.Liu Zhisheng, his father, said, "He recites words even when he is walking and working." Liu Boming's English is the best among the astronauts.
It was from an English extracurricular material in high school that Liu Boming first came across the word "aerospace"."'For individuals, this is just a small step; for humans, it is a big step.' ReadArmstrongI was shocked when I landed on the moon.His realm is very high, and aerospace is indeed the cause of all mankind. "Liu Boming said afterwards.Just like the determined young man who rode back and forth on the muddy road of his hometown against the wind and snow more than 20 years ago, Liu Boming used his tenacity to face the hard training of astronauts and achieved remarkable results.Now, with the dream of hundreds of millions of Chinese people, he has flown into space on Shenzhou VII.
In 1985, when Liu Boming's father learned that his son had applied to the military academy secretly when he was taking the pilot recruitment test in the county seat, his father remembered that his son said, "The burden at home is too heavy. Being a soldier can save a lot of money." His father was proud of his son's understanding.That year, after many examinations, Liu Boming became the only student selected by the school in recent years.In 1990, Liu Boming really became a fighter pilot, but he was not satisfied.In those years, Liu Boming made rapid progress in both his flying skills and the style of fighter pilots.
In 1990, Liu Boming was engaged to his wife.[2]Liu Boming's wife is Zhang Yao[26]
Liu Boming is known as "Little Zhuge". Apart from good study, he likes to be involved in everything that uses his brain.Whether as a pilot or an astronaut, he never fails in every intelligence contest.Once a drillmaster who was famous for his tricky questions was "shocked" by Liu Boming's fluent answers after he "quizzed" Liu Boming about more than ten "odd corners" of the question in a row, and from then on, he implemented the "hands-free" policy.
For“Shenzhou VI”Feitian, his father Liu Zhisheng, thinks that even if he can't go to heaven this time, it is very excellent that his son can be included in the list.He only hopes that his son can train steadfastly. After all, there will be many opportunities in the future.
