Chapter 934: Flying in formation
It's fine after thirty-five verses......
What is the concept of wind speed at 35 knots?
The wind can walk a distance of 65 kilometers in an hour, and it is replaced by wind, which is a strong wind between level 7 and 8, and people are already obviously struggling to walk at this wind speed, and the umbrella will be blown directly.
In this case, if a Boeing plane with wings dares to land, it will be directly lifted by the strong wind and somersault in the air without discussion.
A few hours later, the very loud banshee flew as promised.
The real-time wind speed over the airport was measured by the airport weather station at 19 knots.
"Report to the tower, we have arrived over Shezhou Airport and requested to land. ”
"You ......" the radio liaison officer of the tower no longer knew what to say, and finally had to hold back, "You can do it yourself." ”
Different airlines enforce different take-off and landing standards, and in some weather conditions, Air A may not approve the landing of its own aircraft, but Air B will find it okay. Just like last year's foggy weather, Russian airlines dared to let their planes blind down when all flights were diverted to other airports.
The real-time climate data over the airport has been transmitted to them, and it is up to them to decide whether to land or not.
And then.
Manager Xu Qianyang and the staff on duty at the tower all saw that the red aircraft fell from the sky in the snowstorm.
"Boom~", the whole landing process is less than twenty seconds.
Perhaps because the snow was too strong and the weather was too cold, the banshee flew away after hurriedly dropping a bunch of airmail. They said on the radio that they were going to fly to Tongling, where there were still passengers waiting for them.
"Why, why were they able to land?" said manager Xu Qianyang, who was almost forced out of his mind by the heavy snow and strong winds.
The airport has been closed intermittently for three days, how many passengers have been stranded at the airport and how many flights have been canceled during those three days. However, when the manager Xu Qianyang tried to check the flight information of Skynet Airlines, he was shocked to find that since the start of the Spring Festival, none of their flights have been canceled or delayed.
Wherever it was and how heavy the snow was on, they landed as it was.
This incident may be a small episode, and after the envy of the manager Xu Qianyang, he can only continue to devote himself to the work of fighting ice and snow. Remove snow and ice from airports and planes, and fly as soon as the wind speed abides.
But the travelers were reluctant.
They can see the runway in the airport waiting hall. The banshee aircraft of the Tianwang Airlines landed in a dashing manner, and flew away neatly. These passengers who were stranded at the airport could no longer suppress the anger in their hearts.
Why.
Why can Banshee Flying Machines fly while other airlines cannot?
Passengers who are anxious to go home do not understand what crosswind wind speed is, nor do they understand that the thrust of the combustion chamber is not enough. They didn't want to listen to the airport staff's explanation, and when they saw the banshee flying machine coming and going, they began to protest en masse.
The staff's prevarication to each other was in stark contrast to the huge figure when the banshee flew away.
At some point, someone couldn't stand the endless wait anymore and started shouting angrily. Soon most of the passengers were agitated, shouting that the airport must give an explanation, call your manager, and if the manager can't solve it, call the mayor.
The passengers waiting at the airport were restrained, using only words to express their anxiety and anger.
But if this scene is not pacified soon, who knows if the passengers will eventually express their opinions with actions?
Of the more than 10,000 passengers stranded at the airport, a quarter are foreigners. They came to China for tourism, and now they are stuck at the airport, and it is not only time that is affected. Before they travel, their schedules have been arranged long before departure, and they can't just look at the scenery of Huangshan and leave, but also go to other cities.
This includes a return ticket, which must be ordered in advance.
Other airlines, no matter why you can't arrive on time, will not be kind enough to refund you the bill you have paid.
The slightest change in the situation at the airport was immediately reported to the mayor's office by the government staff who were volunteers at the scene.
After a while, the mayor arrived in a hurry.
The mayor is not a magician, and he can't stop the wind and snow. He could only catch Xu Qianyang, the airport manager, and criticize him violently, so that no matter what method he used, he had to calm down the emotions of the passengers immediately.
Shezhou City is backed by the Yellow Mountain, as the saying goes, the mountain eats the mountain, not to mention a world-famous scenic mountain. Shezhou City is the main tourist card, offending no one can offend the tourists, this year there are few similar lessons?
How many tourist attractions, relying on their own cattle to offend tourists, turned out to be like Chernobyl in a few days.
I thought I was very good, but in fact, I was living in a dream.
Xu Qianyang, the manager of the airport, roared aggrievedly, saying that the airport could do anything but coordinate with the railway station to send all the passengers there and let the train take them out of Shezhou.
This plan, of course, does not work, the railway department is busier than the airport. All the vehicles are so full that it's impossible to knock out those who have booked tickets. Besides, if you send it out of Shezhou, where will you send it?
The mayor, a layman, had no choice but to put the problem on the airport insider.
The latter simply put his heart sideways, saying that in fact, it is not impossible to solve it.
It's just that......
Seeing that Shezhou City is reluctant to spend this money.
Xu Qianyang, the manager of Shezhou Airport, came up with a very rough method.
He sent a distress message to the headquarters of Skynet Airlines, asking them to send a banshee aircraft to Shezhou Airport after the flight was suspended at night.
He checked, Skynet Airlines currently does not have night flights. According to the practice of various airlines, aircraft that do not fly at night will fly to the base airport for routine maintenance.
A banshee flying machine can carry hundreds of people, and if fifty can be dispatched, wouldn't it be able to pull all the passengers away from the airport......
More than 10,000 passengers were stranded at Shezhou Airport, and there were more than 10,000 hotels in the city. As long as Skynet Airlines is willing, Shezhou Airport can coordinate with the civil aviation department and let the banshee aircraft transport all the passengers away.
These passengers are all passengers who have paid for tickets, and if they withdraw the ticket money from various airlines, they will be transferred to Skynet Airlines.
On the side of Shezhou City, it may be enough to subsidize two to three million dollars.
That's a good idea, if the Banshee Airlines side is willing.
……
When Ye Qing rushed back to Skynet Airlines, the company's current 280 Banshee Flying Machines had all been parked at the base airport.
These two hundred and eighty Banshee Aircraft are parked in the 50 acres of parking area planned by the airport, and all aircraft are connected to high-voltage charging piles. While replenishing energy, the ground crew also carried out meticulous cleaning of the cabins of each Banshee Flyer.
Chang Wanyu reported the situation at Shezhou Airport in detail and asked Ye Qing to decide.
It's not a matter of making money if you have money, the aircraft needs to be controlled by the pilot. Now that every pilot's work schedule is full, and if the plan is changed hastily, the pilots may not have enough sleep to afford the next day's work.
"Are the pilots tired?"
"I calculated the time, if we go to Shezhou Airport to help them transport guests, the whole journey will take about three hours. We arrive at the airport within an hour, and then within an hour, transport the guests to their destination airport, and the Banshee Flying Aircraft back. ”
Chang Wanyu rubbed her delicate little chin and pondered: "I think as long as Shezhou Airport is willing to pay double the flight subsidy, the pilots should be able to afford to fight for one night." ”
"I also asked the drivers and they were very positive. ”
"It's just that we have to speed up the work of aviation driving schools, and the civil aviation department stipulates that each pilot cannot fly more than 1,000 hours in a year. If we fly like this, I'm afraid we can only fly for half a year. ”
"Half a year is enough. Ye Qing nodded, in two days, Director Ding will start the filming of the promotional video of Skynet Airlines, and when the time comes, there will be an advertisement for pilot trainees, and in a few months, the pilot will be able to make dumplings.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing said: "Reply to Shezhou Airport and ask them to arrange for passengers to board the plane immediately." ”
"As soon as the Banshee Flying Machine arrives, the travelers will arrive within twenty minutes. ”
"Our time is precious, and we can't afford to delay. ”
"Understood. ”
Half an hour later, in the increasingly impatient mood of more than 10,000 passengers at Shezhou Airport, two hundred Banshee Flying Machines took off over the Banshee Air Airport.
These two hundred banshee flying machines are not an exaggeration to describe them as covering the sky and the sun. They formed a triangular formation and flew mightily in the direction of Shezhou Airport.
