“呼伦贝尔的天空,万里无云,就像蓝宝石一样晶莹剔透,一眼望去就会让人的心都静下来了,就想离天空近点,再近点……”说起故乡的蓝天,邵鑫鑫的眼睛里始终充满了向往的光芒。

正是凭借着从小对万里碧空的向往,邵鑫鑫成为全国组建警用航空队伍以来,公安部自主培养的第一位女飞行员,也是内蒙古自治区第一位警用航空直升机女飞行员。从一名普通的户籍民警到“飞天女警”,邵鑫鑫用不懈的努力实现了自己逐梦蓝天的愿望。

一则通知改变命运

从内蒙古警察职业学院毕业后,2010年邵鑫鑫通过公务员考试,正式成为内蒙古呼伦贝尔市阿荣旗公安局基层基础科的一名普通民警,负责户籍管理方面的工作。这项工作直接关系到群众生活的方方面面,繁杂而艰辛。新手上路的邵鑫鑫,边学边干,多琢磨多请教,很快就进入角色。

2011年7月的一天,无意间看到了内蒙古自治区公安厅转发的关于公安部在全国公安队伍中选拔飞行员的通知。邵鑫鑫的目光一下子就定在这则通知上,久久不动,心跳得很快,心里面的第一个念头就是:我要试试!

在单位领导的支持下,邵鑫鑫从阿荣旗赶到呼伦贝尔市海拉尔区,在指定等级的医院里,进行了严格详细的體检,随后就返回单位继续投入工作。令她没想到的是,一个月后,她突然接到了公安部警航办工作人员的电话,通知她进入复试了。

“当时我正在工作中,刚接到电话的时候,高兴得恨不得要蹦起来,后来看到身边还有来办事的群众,才强忍下来。”邵鑫鑫笑着说,“一直忍到下班后,我才特别激动地给家里打电话。”

听到这个消息后,邵鑫鑫的父母也非常高兴,但在开心的同时,也开始担心,飞行员代表了荣耀也意味着风险。邵鑫鑫想了一晚上后,很坚定地对自己的妈妈说:“就让我试一下吧,不试试我会后悔一辈子!”

就这样,带着父母的期望与担心,邵鑫鑫来到天津参加复试。到了之后,她才发现,和她一样来参加复试的,还有来自全国各地公安系统的将近30位民警,而在这近30人里,只有她一个女生。

这悬殊的比例,影响了邵鑫鑫对复试的信心,让她甚至有些打退堂鼓的想法。但是一回想起自己从小的梦想,邵鑫鑫再次下定决心:无论如何,只有全力以赴拼过了,才能没有遗憾!

更精细严格的体检,更专业的测试,更高的体能要求,邵鑫鑫按照复试要求,一关一关地过。随着参加复试的民警一个一个被淘汰,邵鑫鑫的心也一直提着。最终,共有18人通过了复试。而邵鑫鑫作为唯一的女警,笑到了最后。

名单公布的那一刻,伴随着周围的欢呼声,邵鑫鑫才真正感觉到,自己终于摸到了梦想的边缘。

“第一”的含金量

2011年9月,公安部警用航空飞行员第三期培训正式开班,邵鑫鑫他们先要进行为期六个半月的理论知识培训,然后才开始将近两年的飞行训练。

平复了激动的心情之后,邵鑫鑫意识到真正的挑战才刚刚开始。

航空气象学、机身系统、空气动力学……这些以前从没接触的课程内容,全都要从头学习,从零开始。邵鑫鑫刚开始连老师讲课的内容都跟不上,只能下课后自己补学,每天的课程排得很满,她就把所有课余的时间都利用起来,抓紧一切时间进行学习。除了高强度的学习之外,他们每天都要进行锻炼,以保持充沛的体能。

“操场是400米的跑道,我每天晚上都要跑七八圈,跑完累了就往草坪上一躺,仰望夜空,星河灿烂,特别美!”邵鑫鑫笑着说。

作为班里的“万绿丛中一点红”,邵鑫鑫比其他的学员更受关注。不少人听说有女飞行员在这里受训,都会有意无意地来“围观”一下,想看看公安部自主培养的第一个女飞行员是什么样子。顶着这样的“光环”,她不仅没有一丝骄傲,反而觉得自己肩上的责任更重。

邵鑫鑫坚定地说:“大家给我贴了‘第一的标签,我就要把这个‘第一的含金量提到最高。我要用自己的努力,让大家看到女飞行员和男飞行员一样,都能取得优异的成绩,都能为警航事业增光添彩!”

高强度的理论学习之后,就进入了飞行训练阶段。从理论走向实践,邵鑫鑫距离自己的梦想更近了一步。

严苛的训练,不仅考验每一人的体力,还考验一个人的心性。

飞机驾驶杆的反应非常灵敏,1毫米角度的改变都会导致飞机整体的一连串变化。直升机上的总距杆、周期变距杆和脚蹬配合使用,控制旋转斜盘、桨毂和尾桨工作就可以操纵直升机做相应的空中机动了。侧风等客观因素会带来很多变数,需要飞行员随机应时时调整总距、周期变距和尾桨,这就要求飞行员的操作必须非常精准。

在连续几个小时的飞行训练后,邵鑫鑫的胳膊经常会脱力到动都动不了。然而等到第二天,她依然会精神百倍地出现在训练场,继续竭尽全力地训练。

2012年7月,邵鑫鑫在飞行教员的带领下,第一次飞上了天空。她没有紧张与害怕,只有离天空更近的兴奋和激动。哪怕后来飞行教员进行了一系列的极限飞行动作,也没有让她退缩。下机后,飞行教员忍不住夸赞说:“就这心理素质,天生就是干飞行的人!”

2012年8月20日,邵鑫鑫独立驾机完成了训练任务,成为全班第二个“放单飞”的学员。当听到飞行教员笑着对她说:“丫头,可以出师了”,那一刻,邵鑫鑫似乎听到了梦想开花的声音。

从“大飞机”到“小飞机”

从航校毕业后,邵鑫鑫回到了内蒙古,成为内蒙古公安唯一一支空中治安力量中的一员,先后执行过应急救援、紧急搜救、抗洪抢险、医疗救护等100多次任务,飞行总时间超过500小时。

邵鑫鑫也在一次次训练和执行任务中,对警航、对女飞行员的工作,有了更多的体会和理解。

2017年9月,在一次长途转场执行任务时,邵鑫鑫所在机组驾驶直升机途经山区,遇到了复杂气象转场飞行。暴雨、惊雷、闪电,这些电影里的画面真实地展现在她的面前。更糟糕的是,因为在山区,没有信号,他们和塔台失去了联系,飞机的油箱也空了大半。

万分危急的关头,邵鑫鑫他们凭借着过硬的技术,临时调整航线,在能见度极低的情况下,凭借目测,贴着一座座山,低空飞行3个小时,才安全脱险。

“真的是第一次经历这样的天气情况,那时候也顾不上紧张害怕,就想着一定要平安回去,事后才意识到那次真的特别惊险。”回想起当时的情景,邵鑫鑫感叹地笑着说,“我觉得我是一个反射弧特别长的人,驾驶飞机的时候,脑子里只有飞行的事儿,其他感受总是事后才能反应过来。”

像这样的紧急情况还有好几次,但是不管多么危险、多么辛苦,都没有动摇她对警航事业的热爱。她家书房的墙上,常年挂着两幅直升机的座舱图,邵鑫鑫早晚都会去默记练习动作,用她的话说,就是要常练常新、刻在脑子里。

2018年,为贯彻落实公安部《关于进一步加强警用航空建设的意见》,内蒙古自治区公安厅不断推进警用航空建设,快速发展警用无人机工作。邵鑫鑫奉命从实战一线回到内蒙古自治区公安厅,着手建设内蒙古的警用无人机队伍。

从“大飞机”到“小飞机”,又是从零开始。邵鑫鑫不断参加培训,调研学习,查阅资料,一点一点地摸索出内蒙古警用无人机的发展思路。从人才培训、无人机日常管理维护等多个方面,制定规范化管理方案,一步步让内蒙古的警用无人机工作,实现了从无到有、从弱到强的发展。

目前,内蒙古已经成立5支警用无人机专职队伍,持证驾驶员300多人,不同類型的航空器600多架。2022年,内蒙古公安厅分别在鄂尔多斯市和锡林郭勒盟建立了警用无人机培训基地,进一步推动了全区警航事业的发展。

邵鑫鑫本人还参与了公安部组织的《警用无人驾驶航空器外观制式涂装规范》行业标准的制定起草工作,为全国警航事业高质量发展做出了贡献。

“一步步走来,我觉得警用直升机和无人机就像警航事业发展的两个翅膀,两翼齐飞,互补发展,肯定会越飞越高。”邵鑫鑫望着无垠的蓝天说。

The First Female Police Pilot

By Lu Han

"The vast, cloudless sky over Hulun Buir is as clear as sapphire. A glance at the sky calms you down and draws you closer to the heights above,"says Shao Xinxin. When Shao talks about the azure sky in her hometown, her eyes flashes with reminiscence..

Shao has yearned to fly high across the broad sky since her childhood. Now, she has become China's first female police pilot trained by the Ministry of Public Security. She is also the first woman in Inner Mongolia to pilot a police helicopter. She has grown from an ordinary household registration police officer to a woman pilot, fulfilling her dream of riding high in the blue sky.

A Life-changing Notice

After graduating from the Inner Mongolia Police Professional College in 2010, Shao was selected as a police officer through the civil service recruitment exam in the Public Security Bureau of Arun Banner, Hulun Buir City, Inner Mongolia. She was responsible for household registration, a complex and demanding task that directly affects the day-to-day lives of local people. Shao dived headfirst into her role, and was always eager to learn, seek advice, and reflect on her duties. With her hard work and dedication, she quickly grew and adapted to her position.

One day in July 2011, she came across a notice from the Public Security Department of Inner Mongolia: China's Ministry of Public Security was recruiting for pilot candidates among police forces nationwide. Her eyes fixed on the notice and her heart thumping with excitement, Shao hit on the idea: "I'll give it a shot,"she thought.

With the support of her superiors, Shao traveled from Arun Banner to Hailar District in Hulun Buir City, where she began her application with a health check at a hospital. After that, she returned to her day-to-day duties. A month later she got a phone call from the Police Aviation Administration Office under the Ministry of Public Security: she had made it to the next round of the selection process.

"I was at work when the call came. I was so overjoyed to hear the news that I wanted to jump about in celebration, but I stopped myself after seeing some residents seeking me out for help,"Shao says with a grin. "I held back my euphoric mood until after work, and only then did I share the fantastic news with my family over the phone."

Her parents were initially delighted, but they quickly became worried. Being a pilot would be an honor, but it is also fraught with danger. Though the thoughts tumbled around her head all night long, Shao resolved the next morning, "Please let me have a try, or I will regret it for the rest of my life."

Despite her parents' mixed feelings of hope and anxiety, Shao made her way to Tianjin for the next round of the examination. It was not until she arrived that she discovered she was one of nearly 30 candidates from across the country. She was the only woman among them.

The gender imbalance dented her confidence. She even briefly considered giving up. But then she remembered her childhood aspirations and that strengthened her resolve. She wanted to go all out no matter what happens and live a life with no regrets.

The second round of the selection involved even a more rigorous health check-up, professional tests, and endurance challenges. As the group thinned and the pressure mounted, Shao felt increasingly nervous. While more and more candidates failed and left, she managed to stay. Eventually, 18 candidates emerged victorious, with Shao shining as the only woman among them.

When the final list was announced, celebratory cheers filled the air and Shao truly felt that she was on the verge of fulfilling her dream.

The Weight of Being First

Successfully enrolled as a member of the third training class for police aviation pilots organized by the Ministry of Public Security, Shao, along with her classmates, commenced her exhilarating but arduous training in September 2011. The journey started with an intensive dive into theoretical knowledge for six and a half months, followed by nearly two years of flying drills.

As the initial waves of excitement subsided, Shao became fully aware that tough challenges were just about to unfold.

Aeronautical meteorology, airframe systems, aerodynamics, and other technical fields were a new world completely foreign to her. Shao was learning everything from scratch and initially struggled to keep up with the lectures and had to spend more time digesting them after class. With a packed daily schedule, she leveraged all her spare time and squeezed every moment she could to bury herself in study. Her intensive training was characterized by both mental and physical preparation.

"I ran seven or eight laps around the 400-meter track every evening until utterly exhausted. Then I would lie down on the grass and gaze into the star-studded sky. How gorgeous it was!"Shao recalls with a smile.

As the only female trainee in the class, Shao found herself under extra scrutiny. Curiosity drove many, either on purpose or by accident, to wonder how the first female police pilot trainee would fair. However, this recognition did not swell Shao's pride but instilled a stronger sense of duty in her.

"Now that they labeled me as the ‘first' female police pilot, so I was determined to live up to the label. I would try hard to prove that a female pilot is inferior to no man. Instead I can make great achievements as well, thereby being a credit to the police aviation endeavor,"Shao says firmly.

After the intensive theoretical studies, flying drills happened. Moving from the classroom to the cockpit, she edged one step closer to her dream of flying high in the sky.

This phase of rigorous training was a test of both mental strength and physical endurance.

Piloting a helicopter requires extreme precision, as a mere millimeter's adjustment in the angle of the control stick can result in significant changes in flight dynamics. Through the collective lever, cyclic stick, and foot pedals, the pilot can control the swashplate, rotor hub, and tail rotor to perform complex maneuvers. Factors such as crosswinds can affect the aircraft at any moment, thus requiring pinpoint precision with adjustments.

Hours of continuous flight training would numb her arms and left them motionless. The next day would, however, found her as energetic and diligent in the routinely hash training.

In July 2012, under the guidance of her instructor, Shao took to the skies for the first time. She was unflinching rather than nervous or afraid, not even amid a series of extreme flight maneuvers. The instructor was impressed and couldn't help but praise her: "Judging from your mental strength, you're born to be a pilot."

On August 20, 2012, Shao successfully piloted a helicopter by herself and completed all training tasks, becoming just the second trainee for a solo flight in her class. Upon hearing her instructor's proud announcement about her eligibility to graduate, she felt as if her dream blossoming into reality.

From the Helicopter to the Drone

After graduating from the training class, Shao returned to Inner Mongolia and joined the only local police aviation unit. Over the years, she has flown for more than 500 hours for over 100 missions, from emergency rescue to fighting floods, from disaster relief to medical assistance.

Rigorous training and real-world operations have equipped her with a better understanding of the role of a female pilot in police aviation.

On a long-distance mission in September 2017, Shao and her crew encountered severe weather conditions while flying their helicopter across rugged mountainous terrain. They were besieged by torrential rain, thunder and lightning—it was like a scene from the movies. Even worse, they lost contact with the control tower due to radio signal loss, and the tank was more than half empty.

At this critical juncture, Shao and her teammates tapped into their wealth of  expertise and decided to change the route immediately. Navigating their way through mountains with just their naked eyes, they took a perilous three-hour, low-altitude flight before finally reaching safety.

"That was the first time I came across such tough weather conditions. With no time to be nervous or afraid at that point, all I concentrated on was getting back safe and sound. It was not until later that I realized how dangerous it was,"Shao says when reflecting on the heart-stopping experience. "I am often a little bit slow to register the danger, since in the cockpit, my sole focus is on controlling the aircraft, leaving my feelings about what was happening in the back of my mind."

However, these emergency situations did not deter her and her dedication to her police aviation career never wavers. At home, in her study, two helicopter cockpit diagrams are a constant reminder of her commitment. She engages in a daily ritual of practice and memorization. She believes it is essential to keep sharpening her skills and ensure every detail is firmly etched into her memory.

In 2018, to align with the Ministry of Public Security's directive to further bolster police aviation capabilities, the Public Security Department of Inner Mongolia decided to promote the extensive use of drones among its police force. Shao was transitioned from frontline duties to a position in the department, tasked with spearheading the establishment of a local police drone division.

The transition from the helicopter to the drone meant a fresh start for Shao. Undeterred, Shao immersed herself in intensive training, extensive research, and meticulous study, aiming to piece together a comprehensive strategy for developing a local police drone force. She was involved in the establishment of standardized management protocols for things like personnel training and the daily maintenance of drones. Day by day, her assiduous efforts were rewarded – the police drone force has built greatness from the ground up.

As of today, Inner Mongolia has established five specialized police drone squads, comprising over 300 licensed pilots and a fleet of more than 600 drones of various types. In 2022, to further advance the local police aviation force, the Public Security Department of Inner Mongolia set up police drone training bases respectively in Ordos City and Xilingol League.

Shao also took part in the drafting of industry standards, including the specifications for the unified exterior coating of police drones, under the auspices of the Ministry of Public Security, contributing to the development of the national police aviation force.

"Police helicopters and police drones are to our police aviation force what two wings are to a bird. With the wings flapping in synergy, our police aviation will definitely soar to new heights,"says Shao as she gazes into the vastness of the azure sky.
