Chapter 373: Swinging the score

Australia is vast and sparsely populated, more than 7 million square kilometers of territory, the population is slightly inferior to the permanent population of Yanjing, and the Australian government also has more than 10 islands for sale all year round, affected by the economic crisis in recent years, the price of the islands has plummeted, the original price of more than tens of millions of dollars of developed islands, now the price is not even tens of millions, but even so, buyers are very few. binhuo.

The island is not a house in the center of the city, if it is an undeveloped island, then the purchase price is only a small part of the overall expenditure, the real development is extremely expensive, any building development on the island, the cost of the main building is more than twice as high as usual, this does not include changes to the landscape, such as time-consuming and labor-intensive leveling of the land.

For many people, the practicality of the island is not high, tens of millions of dollars or even higher prices to buy, after the completion, the time that can be enjoyed every year is nothing more than ten days and a half months, and every time it is opened, the cost is very high, a small number of rich people have bought a private island with enthusiasm, and they will regret it in less than three years, if they encounter economic ineconomy and income decline, then the island has become a hot potato that cannot be sold.

It is precisely because of the general environment that Zhang Wenhao came up with the idea of buying an island, and after careful investigation, he found that the current market is really the most suitable time to sell, both girls like the tropics, and they both want to be closer to home, Australia must be the best choice, Zhang Wenhao screened the islands for sale in Australia, after subdividing. I found that most of them were not to my heart's content.

The problem with most islands is that they are too small, most of them are less than a square kilometre, and there is nothing wrong with building a large villa on such islands, but if you want to build an airstrip, it is a dream, and a small number of larger islands. The island's topography is also a source of complaints, with most of it being occupied by mountains or surrounded by many reefs.

Zhang Wenhao flipped through the map. About 100 kilometers northwest of Queensland, Australia, it was discovered that there was an island called Dhoni, which was nearly five square kilometers in size. The longest end is 2,400 meters apart, and the terrain division is also very suitable, half of the side is low hills, half of the side is forest, the forest is located in a gentle terrain, and it is relatively easy to rebuild.

Based on the analysis of the bird's-eye view of the satellite, Xiao Er concluded that a 3C runway with a maximum width of 40 meters and a length of 1,800 meters could be built on Dhoni Island, so that about one square kilometer of flat land could be left for the construction of other buildings. This kind of runway basically does not meet the take-off and landing of small and medium-sized trunk aircraft such as Boeing 737, but if Dongchen replaces high-thrust engines on BBJ2 aircraft of the same level, and comprehensively upgrades the aircraft take-off and landing system. This kind of runway is enough for take-off and landing.

The runway on the island can fully meet the take-off and landing of aircraft of BBJ2 and the depth of the water on the island side, and can berth ships with a displacement of less than 2,000 tons. Short-range can directly take a seaplane or helicopter to the Australian mainland, so that although living on the island, but the traffic is extremely convenient, here and Yanjing straight line distance is less than 6000 kilometers, if Zhang Wenhao can start the comprehensive development of supersonic civil aviation within three years, then from here to Yanjing, it takes only about two and a half hours, this speed, just like ordinary people from Yanjing South Fifth Ring Road to a trip to the North Fifth Ring Road.

However, Zhang Wenhao's planning for Dhoni Island is very practical, he only needs a runway, a set of communication facilities that can directly connect with the air traffic control in Queensland, relying on the strength of Dongchen, if he wants to carry out a comprehensive transformation of BBJ2 business aircraft, he can even make BBJ2 achieve 100% accurate blind take-off, blind landing, and even unmanned throughout the whole process, so the auxiliary facilities of the airport do not need to be too complicated at all, a runway, a set of communication radar, and a hangar are enough. …,
