Zhaowei, 1976 was born in Shenyang. As one of the captains and founders of the China Red Bull aerobatic team, he is known as the first unrestricted aerobatic fighter in China. Aerobatics is divided into junior, intermediate, athlete, advanced and unrestricted levels, and unrestricted aerobatics belongs to the highest level.
Being born in the countryside does not hinder the love of flying.
In people's impression, sports related to airplanes are exclusive to the rich and cannot be carried out without sufficient funds. Born in the countryside, zhaowei proved that his passion for flying has nothing to do with money, but is closely linked with his dream. Zhao Wei loved airplanes since childhood and yearned for the blue sky. When I was a child, I lived in a farmhouse. I used corn stalks as a model plane. He never gave up his dream of the blue sky. From playing with airplane models to reading aviation magazines, Zhao Wei gradually accumulated rich aviation knowledge.
Resolutely go into the sea and get in touch with extreme sports
After graduating from Shenyang University of Technology in 2000, Zhao Wei worked in a large domestic power equipment enterprise. In 2008, he quit his job and started his own company. He began to practice paragliding and paragliding in his spare time, and at the same time he was exposed to some extreme sports, such as downhill, cross-country motorcycle, motorboat, rowing and surfing. Through these exercises, Zhao Wei developed a strong physique and quick response. Feeling aerobatics, I decided to develop aerobatics industry in China.
After watching XA42 aerobatic performance in Laiwu, Shandong Province on 20 10, Zhao Wei's flying dream rooted in his heart was touched again, and he came up with the idea of giving it a try. Zhaowei began to search for information in many ways, and learned that few people in China were engaged in aerobatics, especially in unlimited classes, so he made up his mind to be the first person in China. Among many aerobatics, Zhao Wei finally chose the world's most expensive and top-notch XA42 super plane as his learning goal. On 20 1 1 year, Zhao Weiyuan crossed the ocean and went to Germany to inspect the XA42 aircraft. After the inspection and test flight, Zhao Wei was full of confidence in himself, believing that he would be able to master aerobatics and bring unrestricted super flight back to China.
Set up a flying team to win glory for our country.
20 1 1, Zhao Wei got a "single-engine land" pilot's license at Anyang Aviation School. Subsequently, Zhao Wei went to Germany for unrestricted aerobatic training four times. For other pilots, aerobatic training is usually only arranged for half an hour in the afternoon, because aerobatic training will cause great physical and psychological fatigue to pilots. But Zhao Wei trains very hard, spending twice as much time on aerobatics training as ordinary pilots. Coupled with his extraordinary talent, after only more than 200 hours of training, Zhao Wei mastered the skill of "flying to challenge the limits of human beings", becoming the first person in China who can fly an unrestricted aerobatic plane, while only 100 pilots in the world can master the highest level aerobatic flight. After finishing his studies, Zhao Wei resolutely returned to China and became the "pioneer" of unrestricted aerobatics in China.
After finishing school, Zhao Wei plans to buy his own plane, support his daily training and prepare for the aerobatic world championship through air shows and film and television advertisements. Due to financial constraints, Zhao Wei could only afford one XA42 aircraft at first; But with the help of his friends, he finally bought four planes and set up a flying team, and invited five friends he met during training in Germany to join his team. With the help of friends and the sponsorship of Red Bull, China's first unrestricted aerobatic team-Red Bull aerobatic team was finally established! The foreign team members of the Red Bull aerobatic team are all top aerobatic pilots in the world, ranking in the top ten in the world aerobatic championship.
