Chapter 198: It's bad
This is not a military transport plane that Guan Xingquan and others are familiar with, he and Xiang Weirong have flown this kind of similar business plane once, and the other three are the first contact at all. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He seemed to remember that civilian airliners could not open the hatches at high altitudes, not even emergency hatches.
"Mr. Guan, you must be worried that the cabin door cannot be opened during the flight, but in fact, there is no need to worry about this.
The door can actually be opened at high altitude, and because this is a private business jet, there is one more option than the way a regular jetliner opens the door.
In general, passenger aircraft basically have three buttons on the top version of the cockpit: 1, cabin pressurization 2, cargo compartment pressurization 3, and door locking.
As long as 1 and 3 are lifted, the slide preposition is lifted, and the emergency release button on the hatch is pressed, the hatch will pop out of the body, but the cabin will lose pressure instantly.
Theoretically, the hatch can be opened at an altitude of 10,000 meters, but no one would do that, and that would be dangerous.
The Gulfstream 4 is not only designed in the cockpit, but also equipped with an emergency pressure relief device, which can reduce the air pressure in the cabin to the same as the pressure outside the cabin within two minutes, and will not cause serious damage to the lives of passengers due to excessive pressure loss. ”
As she spoke, Alice gestured to a red lid on the side of the hatch and demonstrated how to open it: it took a bit of skill and a little bit of strength to prevent a child from opening it by mistake.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the red button on the left is the emergency pressure relief button, and if you pull the right tab hard, the hatch will be ejected from the body. This device is only available on custom private jets, and is absolutely not available on airliners. ”
After speaking, Alice sat herself on the seat closest to the hatch and fastened her seat belt: "But if you don't pull this tab in advance, although the hatch will also be ejected, the operator must fix himself in this position, otherwise he will be sucked out of the cabin instantly!"
The cruising altitude that the Gulfstream 4 can achieve is very high, but the cabin pressure is very suitable: at 15,000 meters, the cabin pressure is equivalent to 1,400 meters, and at 12,500 meters, the cabin pressure is equivalent to 850 meters.
There is a huge difference in air pressure between the inside and outside, and a small problem will kill someone!
It seems that even if you have to parachute, it is not an easy task, and it requires the cooperation of the whole plane: if the order is wrong, the person who opens the door will be fine, and the others will be sucked out of the plane without paying attention!
Zhang Nan stood at the hatch and poked his head out to look at the two engines on the upper edge of the rear fuselage: God knows if the hatch that flew out would hit the wing or one of the engines.
But thinking about it, it seems that I haven't heard of any major accidents in Gulfstream 4, so it should be safe enough.
The safety configuration is all used to comfort people, because the safety factor of private business jets is very high: the average annual flight time of private business jets is generally much less than that of commercial airliners, so there is no need to worry about metal fatigue.
Here, Guan Xingquan waited for Alice to leave the seat, he sat up by himself to try his comfort, and said to everyone: "This position is good, it will be mine in the future." ”
Xiang Weirong smiled when he heard it, but didn't say much. The others also knew it - Lao Guan liked it, so it should be his special seat.
……
At 6 p.m. on the evening of the 22nd, Gulfstream 4 took off from a small airport on Long Island, crossed the Atlantic, stopped in Lisbon, Portugal, and arrived at a small airport south of Munich in the morning of local time in Germany.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a lot of contraband on board, you could have landed at Salzburg International Airport in the Austrian state of Salzburg, which is only 20 kilometers from Berchtesgaden!
It's almost the same as in Italy, there are already people waiting, and this is all Jackson has contacted before.
But unlike in Rome, this time three large Mercedes SUVs were waiting directly on the tarmac of the small airport.
As soon as Zhang Nan and the others got off the plane, they could overlook the Alps surrounded by snow from the wide airport.
Some airport staff came to check everyone's passports and visas, and they didn't need to go to any office to get a stamp: they took out a stamp directly from their pockets, and stamped it one by one, and there was no security check at all.
The cars that picked up people have arrived on the tarmac, and the security check is a big one!
However, the stamp cannot be less: Germany is very strange, Americans will also need to apply for a visa to the Federal Republic of Germany, but it is just a formality, and there are special agencies that can handle it on their behalf, so there is basically no possibility of disapproval.
With a U.S. passport and a bag, you can go to more than 100 countries around the world, but not Germany: neither west nor east!
The bodyguards took out large and small bags from the luggage compartment of the plane, some of which were particularly long, but no one paid attention to them here.
Not even a head, that's loose enough.
The latest private business jet looks like the American bigwig who comes here to ski - it's already the end of November, and the ski season has already begun, and there are many rich people from all over the world who come here to ski and travel.
Half an hour later, the buggy drove into Berchtesgaden, surrounded by mountains.
Surrounded by the Austrian state of Salzburg to the east, south and southwest, Berchtesgaden was the heart of Nazi Germany during World War II and is now famous for its beautiful national parks.
One scholar once described its special status in a passage: "Hitler held Upper Salzburg in one hand and Auschwitz in the other. The former is a beautiful and tranquil resort, while the latter is like a death factory, giving birth to endless horrors. ”
The Obersalzburg Mountains in Berchtesgaden had been Hitler's holiday destination since 1923 – he completed the second volume of his anti-Semitic book Mein Kampf on the Obersalzburg Mountains near Berchtesgaden that year and was fascinated by the mountain and lake scenery of Berchtesgaden.
In 1933, Germany converted the Upper Salzburg Hill into the official residence of Hitler and Nazi dignitaries, and in 1937 the seat of Hitler's government was built at the foot of the Upper Salzburg Hill - the second government residence of Nazi Germany after Berlin, where Hitler spent several months each year in Berchtesgaden, during which his political plans were announced.
Of course, the most famous is the Eagle's Nest, which was completed in 38. But this time, Zhang Nan couldn't take the elevator to the Eagle's Nest to see the scenery, because it won't open until the summer after May.
Zhang Nan was not a tourist either, and after staying in a villa hotel built during World War II, he immediately began to study the map and the actual terrain of the place.
Zhang Nan chartered two small villas, and the driver hired by the car and Jackson were both pushed to one of the buildings, and Lin Ming was also kicked over.
As soon as the lunch was over, the two off-road vehicles went outside in a big circle, and Guan Xingquan's car crossed the border to Austria - too close, a small road, half a family on both sides, and the border was open.
The "unreliable" ones were all left in the residence, and Lin Ming was there to talk nonsense with Jackson.
When he came back after nightfall, Zhang Nan said, "It's bad!"
"Yes, it's bad!" (To be continued.) )
