Chapter 1192: New Ideas
Elliot Richardson was also proud of his ability to help NATO and the United States conduct daily patrols in the no-fly zones over Bosnia and Herzegovina and Iraq: "Of course, you think all these years at the Pentagon have been for nothing?"
Chen Geng gave a thumbs up in appreciation, and then his tone changed, and he poked Barry Hamp in the sky with his chin and asked Elliot Richardson, "What do you think of this guy's level?"
"Very good," Elliot Richardson nodded, "not at all like a guy in his 50s, what?
"I do have some ideas," Chen Geng nodded: "You say, is there a guy in the United States who is like this guy and urgently needs to improve his economic conditions?"
Elliot Richardson frowned, "Isn't it? You want to form an all-American A-1 Skyraider aviation squadron?"
"How is it possible? I'm not crazy," Chen Geng said angrily: "I just think that this guy is the only one to be an instructor, and he may not be too busy, if there are three to five people, it would be more suitable, not only can he be an instructor on weekdays, but he can also be a captain when patrolling." ā
According to the standard combat rules of the US military, when carrying out a mission, it is usually a two-plane formation, so as to remind each other and support each other in the event of danger; if there is an experienced A-1 "Sky Raider" pilot leading the team to make a long plane every time a mission is carried out, it will be of great benefit to the completion of the mission, the handling of dangerous situations in the air, and even the handling plan in the event of an exchange of fire.
Chen Geng hoped that Elliott Richardson would agree with this opinion, but Elliot Richardson was not only a shareholder of the company, but also the CEO of the company, and he could only put forward his own opinions, and his opinions and opinions must be respected.
Elliott Richardson also understood this, so staring at the "Heavenly Raider" in the sky, he touched his chin and thought: "If the commission is suitable, I think it can be considered." ā
"OK," Chen Geng nodded: "Since that's the case, then ask Mr. Hamp when he comes down." ā

The plane came to a stop, and Barry Hamp jumped off the plane himself without even waiting for the crew to bring the ladder, and he was very athletic, not at all like a man in his 50s.
Coming to Chen Geng and Elliott Richardson, Barry Hamp said in a deep voice, "Mr. Richardson, Mr. Fernandez. ā
"Mr. Hamp," Elliot Richardson stepped forward and asked Barry Hamp in a deep voice, "I am pleased with your performance, since Mr. Fernandez has recommended you to me, if you think that your physical condition allows you to carry out a long patrol duty of more than six hours, we can sign a contract." ā
Barry Hamp was very excited, according to what Mr. Fernandez said before, as long as he signed the contract, he could immediately get a signing fee totaling $20,000, which would be of great help to alleviate his family's poor financial situation, Barry Hamp couldn't wait for the game, he immediately nodded and said, "Sir, I think I'm fine." ā
"Very well, Mr. Hamp, can you find some former Skyraider pilots who are in good shape and willing to come to Iraq or Bosnia and Herzegovina to make money?" said Elliot Richardson, "If you don't succeed in introducing someone here, the company will give you a $5,000 referral fee." ā
"Really?"
"Of course it's true," Elliott Richardson nodded affirmatively: "As long as the person you introduced signs the contract, the introduction fee can be given to you immediately." ā
"I do know some old friends," Barry Hamp said immediately, "and I think I can try." ā
"Then I'll wait for your good news," Elliott Richardson replied and asked Barry Hamp again, "Mr. Fernandez probably told you that we are about to obtain a batch of 'Sky Raiders', you are an expert in flying 'Sky Raiders', I want to hear your advice, what do you think about this batch of 'Sky Raiders'?"
Barry Hamp said without thinking, "If I had to choose, I would like the A-1E." ā
āA-1Eļ¼ā
Elliot Richardson frowned, he knew that there were multiple models in the A-1 "Skyraider" series, but it was not clear to Elliott Richardson exactly what each model was.
Elliot Richardson didn't know, but Chen Geng knew it, and he introduced Elliot Richardson: "A-1E is like this......"
On A-1 "Skyraider" In the series, there is a very magical improvement: AD-5 (A-1E), compared with Chen Geng's single-seat model A-1D, the A-1E has improved very much, not only changing the single seat to a parallel two-seater, but also out of a cargo space behind the cockpit, this cargo compartment is very flexible, can accommodate 4 stretchers, can install 4 VIP seats, can install 12 individual transport seats, and can even transport 900 kg of cargo after removing these equipment, at the same time, the A-1E also lengthened the fuselageTo put it simply, the A-1E has greatly strengthened its comprehensive performance on the basis of retaining all the combat capabilities of the A-1D, and the officers and men on the US aircraft carrier are very fond of this modification, so much so that several years after the A-1 "Sky Raider" was decommissioned, the American GIs on the aircraft carrier have petitioned several times, demanding that several A-1E should be kept on each aircraft carrier as a daily backup for the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft.
As for the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft, you may not be very familiar with it, but it doesn't matter, everyone has heard of the US Navy's carrier-based early warning aircraft E-2 "Hawkeye", the E-2 "Hawkeye" carrier-based early warning aircraft is a modification of the fuselage of the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft.
After listening to Chen Geng's introduction to the A-1E, Elliot Richardson nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Can I ask why it is the A-1E and not Mr. Fernandez's single-seat 'Skyraider'?"
"Yes, I hope it's the A-1E," Barry Hamp replied without hesitation: "If it's a no-fly zone patrol mission, we'll be in the sky for about 7 to 8 hours a day, and if we can equip the A-1E, I'd like to convert the rear cabin into a bunk berth, and a small kitchen and a small bathroom on the other side." ā
Chen Geng somewhat understood what Barry Hamp meant, and interjected and asked, "Do you want to take two crew members with you when you take off?"
If Barry Hamp plans to do this, Chen Geng will have to reconsider whether to hire this guy, one plane is 2 crews and four pilots, so 2 planes are not 8 pilots?
For hired pilots, as long as they go out on a mission, there will be a wartime allowance, and this time 8 people go out, and the subsidy alone is a lot of money.
