Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
It was drizzling at Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport, and the lead-gray clouds ruled the entire sky, and it seemed to be gray everywhere, as if it were the eve of night.
Ning Lei stood on the edge of the No. 3O tarmac, looking up at the gray sky in the northeast, Qi Lianshan stood beside Ning Lei, and also looked east with Ning Lei's gaze.
"Captain Ning, will this weather affect the landing of the A-7 attack plane? Qi Lianshan asked with some concern.
"Compared with aircraft carriers sailing at night on the ocean, the landing conditions at Kai Tak Airport are now countless times better, and as long as the runway of the airport is not flooded, there is no problem at all for the A-7 attack planes to land. Ning Lei said with a smile.
Around the two people, there were more than 20 people standing scattered, which was much more lively than the last time the F14 fighter was picked up.
The last time the F-14 fighter plane landed in Hong Kong, the careless Air Force was deceived by the HNA and was dazed, and Lin Xiaoshan was furious and completely cleaned up the Air Force's intelligence organs in the SAR.
As a result, when the A-7 attack plane entered China, the 13 Air Force Division, which was already full of soldiers, sent three or four staff members to the Kai Tak Airport early in the morning, which made the Navy colleagues laugh at it greatly.
In the distance, there was a high-pitched sound of rolling thunder in the sky, but because the clouds were low, people on the ground could not see the formation in flight.
When the rumble in the air swept over the airfield and circled again, a gray-white A-7 attack plane emerged from the bottom of the lead-gray clouds.
With the appearance of the first A-7 attack plane, in the blink of an eye, the remaining 10-odd A-7 planes adopted the method of large triangular formation. The low clouds rushed out of the pilot's track.
Looking at the A-7 formation that was doing a de-formation maneuver over the airport, Qi Lianshan heard someone behind him whispering about the A-7 planes and the high risks of flying in a large formation at low visibility and low altitude.
At the very least, Qi Lianshan knows that the A-7 group dares to fly in a large formation at low visibility and low altitude, and this should have a great deal to do with the terrain following radar equipped with the A-7 attack planes.
The domestic military equipment is too backward, Qi Lianshan smacked his mouth and thought.
Seeing that the A-7 attack plane was already taxiing on the runway, John Sprewell walked over, patted Qi Lianshan on the shoulder, and said with a big laugh: "Qi." In order to meet your demands, these A-7 attack planes have just come off the deck and have set off for Hong Kong. β
"John, in fact, I would prefer Grumman to transport the next batch of A-7 attack planes by sea, because the life of this kind of transoceanic flight is enough for me to suffer for a long time. Qi Lianshan also said with a smile.
Like the F-14 fighters, the A-7 attack aircraft group took off from the Grumman Corporation's test flight base on Long Island and went to Hong Kong across the Pacific Ocean, but the A-7 attack planes had a transit range of more than 6ooo kilometers. It successfully flew to Hong Kong after a refueling trip between Guam and Hawaii.
As he spoke, the A-7 attack plane leading the way had already turned into the No. 3O tarmac, and Qi Lianshan waved his hand. A large crowd suddenly poured out of the makeshift shelter.
Qi Lianshan shook his head as he looked at the incomparably exaggerated air intake of the A-7 attack plane, no wonder Liang Yuan was not interested in coming to Hong Kong to join in the fun, and after seeing the smooth and sharp curves of the F-14 fighter, he felt a little miserable when he looked at the A-7 attack plane like a large-mouthed catfish.
After a slight sizzling sound of the pneumatic equipment working, the glass cockpit of the A-7 attack plane was lifted to the rear, and several square-shaped skins at a right angle of 90 degrees to the fuselage were turned out on the side walls of the fuselage and the large-mouth air intake at the lower left side of the cockpit.
The pilot, dressed in a flight suit with the Grumman corporate logo, stood up from the cockpit. Stepping on the boarding steps, he jumped to the ground with agility.
After greeting the temporary commander of the A-7 fleet, John Sprewell turned his head and asked Qi Lianshan, "Qi, when are we leaving?"
Of the 18 pilots who flew the A-7 attack plane from the United States across the Pacific Ocean, only six of them were active personnel of the US Navy, and the remaining 12 were civilian pilots hired by the Grumman Corporation, and the pilots of the A-7 attack planes were no more expensive than the F-14 pilots, and there were at least tens of thousands of pilots who could fly the A-7 attack planes in the United States.
Therefore, after the arrival of the A-7 attack planes in Hong Kong. It did not plan to enter the country by loading and transporting it by ship like the F14, but carried the active military personnel of the Republic on the back seat of six two-seater trainer/attack A-7 and flew directly to Lingshui Airport in Hainan in the form of a direct formation.
It is impossible for American servicemen on active duty to enter the territory of the Republic by plane, no matter how you look at it. However, civilian pilots do not matter, especially if they are carrying active military personnel of the Republic.
Qi Lianshan watched the twelve A-7 attack planes land on the runway one after another, turned his head to Ning Lei and said, "Captain Ning, my business has been completed, when do you plan to leave for the domestic side?" β
Ning Lei turned around and greeted six republican ** people in civilian clothes, and after a few simple words, he arranged for these six people to change into flight suits in the bus parked on the edge of the No. 3O tarmac, and then said to Qi Lianshan: "Thank you Mr. Qi for your help, Mr. Qi will have the opportunity to return to China in the future, and I am expressing my most sincere thanks to Mr. Qi." β
Facing his boss's future father-in-law, where did Qi Lianshan dare to take it, and said that he didn't dare, Ning Lei laughed, waved goodbye to Qi Lianshan and John Sprewell, turned around and shouted that Qiao Pengfei also got on the bus that changed into a flight suit.
After a while, eight heavily armed pilots came out of the bus one by one, Qi Lianshan looked at Ning Lei and Qiao Pengfei, who were dressed in modern science fiction styles, and then looked at the other six people wearing labor protection gloves, thinking that Liang Yuan was chattering about himself complaining about the bad flight suit of the Republic, and sighed helplessly, it was very embarrassing to stand together so intuitively.
Shaking his head, Qi Lianshan said to John Sprewell: "John, let's go back to the hotel in a while to discuss the recent introduction of flight suit production technology." β
Hearing that there was money to be made, of course John Sprewell would not refuse, patted Qi Lianshan on the shoulder and said, "Qi, I have to say, this is really a wonderful tiyΓ¬." β
Since it was necessary to pilot the A-7 planes into Hong Kong, Ning Lei flew the F14 fighter jets of the Hainan Airlines to Hong Kong, and the F14 fighters were parked next door to the No. 3O apron.
Ning Lei, who had changed into a flight suit, first took the six A-7 trainees and briefly greeted the flight instructor from Grummen, and then had a flight exchange with the temporary commander of the A-7 group, and then flew into the battery car of the airport with Qiao Peng and drove to the tarmac next door.
