[My Ends of the World] "Made in China?" Y-20 Captain Chen Kang: "Of Course!"

From the Tujia stilt house in Yuanling, Hunan to the Yun-20 cockpit, Chen Kang walked for ten years. In 2008, he was one of the first and only two children in the county to "fly out" through recruitment. His mother held the admission notice and hugged his father and cried; in 2018, his regiment renovated the Yun-20, a domestic large-scale transport aircraft known as the "fighting machine". Faced with dozens of books and thousands of pages of information, the task of changing clothes was like "brain replacement". The longest flight he and his comrades took on the simulator was from two o'clock in the morning to eight o'clock in the morning.

He is a hard-core captain who can make an artificial blind landing based on landmarks in 50-meter low-visibility advection fog. He is the backbone of the flight team who has crossed the Caspian Sea and flown to 20 airports in 10 countries to perform emergency airlift and humanitarian rescue. He is also the guide who picks up new pilot students and lights up the "first route" of their careers. Faced with the question from foreign pilots about the Yu-20 "Made in China?", he replied loudly: "Of Course!"

Outside the cockpit, he sees the vast mountains and rivers of his motherland, as well as the strange skies of a foreign country; inside the cockpit, what he fears most is that he is not on the mission list. He engraved his blood and loyalty in the sky, and tied his commitment to his family to every safe ups and downs. Chen Kang said that the next voyage he is most looking forward to is to fly the "Kunpeng" with his comrades and go to the Sun Moon Lake in the motherland to see the most beautiful flying posture of the "Kunpeng" reflected in the water of Sun Moon Lake.
