Chapter 3: Attacking Microbursts and the Obsession of Immortality
It's 92 years, and Beretta's pistol hasn't completely replaced the M1911. The National Army is just a small batch of replacements, щ{][lā} What Liu Fei needs is to make the original M9 become a beautiful one. Country.. People are more willing to buy new models.
What Liu Fei needs to do is to reduce the cost, then reduce the selling price, and maybe also need to improve the combat performance slightly, so that it is enough.
Liu Fei will soon step on another plane and go to the headquarters of Delta Air Lines, Liu Fei plans to see Delta, although Liu Fei knows that it may be because of the merger and acquisition of Pan Am, which is bankrupt and liquidated, Delta is a little indigestion.
Although Liu Fei does not believe in Delta's "35 years of new aircraft", Liu Fei absolutely believes in Delta's experienced cabin crew. Liu Fei believes in Delta cabin crew for the following reasons:
First of all, this is its own airline, and its own pilots don't believe in what a terrible thing it is, and if such a thing gets out, Delta Air Lines will definitely be discredited.
Second, the quality of the Delta Air Lines pilots is indeed very powerful, although the blame for the accident of Delta Air Lines Flight 191 was thrown to the pilot, but Liu Fei firmly believes that this is because the pilot did not know about the micro-burst at the last moment; In addition, although the Pan Am Airways obtained by Delta Air Lines cannot be said to be very safe, the absolute number of problems caused by pilots is relatively small, and these two airlines are good compared to the planes in Wanwan.
Third.. Dot, Delta Air Lines in the merger of the United States. After the Western Airlines, it is already the United States. is the third largest airline in the national aviation industry, and its status can be roughly compared with Lufthansa in Liu Fei's heart. However, Lufthansa follows the small and fine, and Delta follows the big and cheap.
Not only that, but later Delta Air Lines was later replaced by the United States. Northwest Airlines has taken it down, and now under the leadership of Liu Fei, Delta Air Lines must reverse Northwest Airlines, otherwise Liu Fei feels that he can't stand himself.
……
Now Delta's fleet is dominated by McDonnell Douglas aircraft, with fewer Boeings and fewer Airbuses.
In order to increase Delta's revenue, Liu Fei naturally wants to expand the scale of intercontinental routes, as we all know, the longer the length of the route, the more profit he earns. But this kind of plan also needs the support of large long-range aircraft, which is more difficult to get by, because the current long-range aircraft of Delta Air Lines is only a fleet of DC-10/MD-11, and even four-engine aircraft are very small, and the number of Boeing 747s is more than a dozen aircraft. This is not possible, because Liu Fei believes that the number of passengers carried on the current intercontinental routes is seriously insufficient.
Now Boeing's 707 has been discontinued, the 717 has not yet appeared, the 727 has long been discontinued, the 737 is in production models, the 747 is in production - the 400 model, the 757 and 767 have been in production for a long time, the 777 is about to be produced, as for the 787......
Liu Fei did not plan to buy the 757, because Liu Fei had a very bad impression of the aircraft. This is because Liu Fei knew that the two crashes of 757 were caused by the blockage of the pitot tube, which can also be said to be caused by it. But it was these two air crashes that left Liu Fei with a thick shadow in his heart, and Liu Fei swore that he would never buy the 757 as a filling machine for the 767, which was a shame.
The Boeing 747 is a good choice, because it is a four-engine aircraft, which can get rid of the restrictions of ETOPS, so that it can fly transoceanic routes without stopping, and it is of course much better than going around a large circle directly over the ocean. Moreover, the Boeing 747 is still the holder of the record for the largest passenger capacity, and it was not until the A380's 800-person results came out that the 747 lost the first place that it had held for more than 30 years.
The 767 can also be thought about, because the 767 also has a model that can cross the Pacific Ocean. Because it carries less passengers, it can be used to operate some routes with less passenger traffic and reduce costs.
※※※
But when he arrived at the scene, Liu Fei was directly stunned - Delta Airlines' books are simply bad, although it has always been profitable, but it must not meet the standard of large-scale profitability.
Liu Fei was helpless, so he found James Iverson, the president of Delta, and Liu Fei told Iverson that he would inject another $200 million, and then let some of Delta's planes temporarily ground and train pilots according to British Airways standards.
Then Liu Fei also decided to modernize some aircraft, so another few hundred million dollars went out. However, Liu Fei didn't feel distressed at all, because this is completely his own industry, and the quality of profits is directly related to his own pockets. But I'm done looking for James, and James needs to finish the rest, and I'll be able to do it after I'm done.
……
Holding a black gold membership card from Mr. James, Liu Fei stepped on a Delta Airlines flight to China.
The Black Gold Membership Card is Delta's most advanced membership card, allowing you to move around the plane without restrictions, but of course, very few people can get this kind of card, so this kind of card is not well known. But flight attendants know absolutely because they're specially trained.
Liu Fei was investigating the passenger experience during the flight, and after the investigation was completed, he did not return to his seat, but went to the cockpit and began to chat with the pilot about the flight experience. The current aircraft is more sour and modern aircraft, at least the automatic driving can take over most of the operation of the aircraft, and a few people chatting in the cockpit are also default.
When he was about to land, Liu Fei spotted a cumulonimbus cloud, and then Liu Fei was about to return to his seat and sit down, but when he passed through the kitchen, the micro-burst burst occurred once, and the plane instantly dropped three thousand feet, and the huge overload pressed Liu Fei against the wall.
Then Liu Fei felt as if he had seen a black color, no, it should be said that something like black fog had entered his mind. But the other passengers didn't see anything, because they were all under the micro-burst... The resulting overload weighs on the seats.
……
Liu Fei's own soul and the soul that suddenly came in began to fight in Liu Fei's mind, but Liu Fei closed his eyes in his seat as if he was fine.
Liu Fei is now starting a tragic war with the obsession of wanting to give up, and in the end Liu Fei has a slight advantage, mainly because Liu Fei has a big home battle. Buff。
The obsession failed, so Liu Fei got a memory that did not belong to him out of thin air, and after this memory was fused with his own memory, Liu Fei felt that his whole person was not good.
This obsession should have been a very powerful mercenary, but on the plane, no, it should be said that I don't know how to die, and then I was parasitic on the plane. This really made Liu Fei feel like a dog, because his memory was already messy enough, and now this guy actually added a fire to himself, which is really unreasonable!
……
After Liu Fei combed through the memories brought by this obsession, he found that this obsession was really powerful, he turned out to be a former top mercenary, but he was killed by an assassin on the plane. When he died on the plane, because of the speed and high altitude, this person's soul was not taken away, and then evolved into a heroic body, and then parasitic in the first-class galley of the plane, until Liu Fei came, and the downward attack micro-burst gave this obsession enough energy, so he rushed out to take it away......
