"Phew! Where is it as bad as you say, your brain is so dirty, you should go to church with us to confess! Katie spat on the waves, then stood up and trotted into the water.

In the past few hours in the afternoon, Hong Tao accompanied Erin and Katie to bask on the beach, and even chatted with the two young women next to him for a while, and everyone sat together and drank beer. Although Hong Tao is not completely immune to the breast waves and hip waves that are all at hand, as long as he reminds himself at all times, he will not be really embarrassed.

After this afternoon's personal experience, Hong Tao really didn't realize what was beautiful about basking in the sun so naked, in the face of dozens of various bodies, he didn't have any ideas, and he might as well feel it in a swimsuit.

"This thing may be the same as eating meat, when you don't have meat or don't eat meat often, let alone actually eat meat, you will drool when you think about it. But if I really eat meat for you three times a day, I'm afraid I'll have to vomit when I see meat! Hong Tao summed up for a long time, but he didn't figure out why he could perform so high-quality.

Carl finally showed up alive at dinner, he was called back by Hong Tao, who told him that there was a change in itinerary, that he would leave Sydney for Hobart tomorrow morning, and that he had not mentioned anything else. According to Erin, sexual orientation is everyone's freedom, and no one has the right to interfere, let alone discriminate, so Hong Tao didn't mention half a word, but Hong Tao has the right to avoid him, and he also has the right to dislike, even sitting together to eat, Hong Tao has Katie separated between the two of them.

Paul really surprised Hong Tao the next day, he got up in the morning and did not drive to the airport south of Sydney to take a flight, but took Hong Tao and them to Manly Island, where there is a small runway with 4 identical small planes parked on it.

"These are your planes? Shall we drive this to Hobart? Hong Tao patted the wings of the small plane and asked Paul.

"The plane is not mine, it is rented, would you rather fly one with me, or would you like to be with Carl?" Paul took the key from a staff member. Stepping on the wings and getting into the cockpit.

"I'd better have a plane with Carl, let Erin and Katie join you, and you'll fly a plane?" Hong Tao also stepped on the wings and looked at the cockpit, there are only 4 seats, can you sit in the fifth person Hong Tao doesn't know, he probably shouldn't be able to sit down, I've heard of overloaded cars, I haven't heard of overloaded passenger planes, even if the pilot dares to drive. Passengers are also afraid to ride.

"It's easy to learn, you only need to fly for 35 hours to get a driver's license, if you want to learn to let Carl teach you, he's better than me. Ladies, come up, old Paul and take you around the heavens! Paul was pleased with Hongtao's surprised expression and loudly invited Erin and Katie to board the plane. The two losers couldn't help but flicker, and they didn't even ask if Hong Tao couldn't get up, so they climbed into the cockpit of the plane.

These small planes are all the same model. The pointed head is a three-bladed propeller, and the cockpit is a bit like a family car, with two seats in front and two seats in the back, and the wings are under the cabin. According to the technical terminology, it should be called the lower wing layout, the tail is very ordinary, the overall length is 7 or 8 meters, and there are large windows in front of the cockpit and on both sides.

"Carl. Is a pilot's license hard? When Hong Tao sat in the co-pilot's seat and watched Carl next to him start the plane like a car, a strong curiosity surged up again.

"It's much easier than learning to drive, driving along the road. There are also various traffic lights, pedestrians, and other vehicles that you need to observe, and you don't need to fly a plane, in addition to taking off and landing to practice a few more times, after flying into the sky, you only need to understand these two screens, this is an electric compass horizon, this is GPS navigation. Paul pointed to the two large LCD screens on the dashboard and said to Hong Tao.

"Will it be as simple as you say?" Hong Tao also contracted his own problems and began to fool people.

"This is Cirrus SR-20, electronic instrument panel, relatively easy, a little more troublesome when learning to fly, it's all old-fashioned dashboard, but it's really easy to fly a plane, do you see the lever on your right?" Carl saw that Hong Tao didn't believe what he said, and was ready to actually prove it to Hong Tao.

"That's it?" Hong Tao reached out and touched the umbrella-like thing, this is too simple! Aren't all the joysticks in airplanes operated by both hands? It's not much bigger than a car's damper handle, except for a few more buttons.

"Well, it can control the pitch, the left and right rolls, the roll, you know?" Carl made a left-right roll back and forth with his hands.

"Drum action, I know, I've played airplane simulation games." Hong Tao is really not nonsense, in his previous life, he liked to play computer games, especially realistic games such as planes, tanks, and warships, so he bought several sets of gamepads with foot pedals and throttle levers.

"Isn't that simpler, it's easier than playing a game, the rudder is at your feet, I'll give you control in a moment, you try!" As soon as Carl heard that Hong Tao had played the game, it was as if Hong Tao had retired from naval aviation, and he made a decision with great confidence.

"It's not going to fall, is it?" Hong Tao is 10,000 willing to try, but he is afraid of falling to death!

"I'll help you watch it, no problem! You have to be brave when you fly a plane! Okay, we can take off, you look at me, I'll teach you how to take off first, but this can't let you try. Carl chatted with Hong Tao and communicated with the tower.

"This is the throttle lever, which is now on your left, and if you're driving alone, it's on your right, and the joystick is on your left, which is the opposite of where you are." Karl pointed to the handle between him and Hong Tao and explained to Hong Tao.

"I understand this, I'm in the passenger seat." Hong Tao felt that Carl was a little inkblotted.

"Well, when the plane is not flying, the rudder under the feet is the brake, now we need to step on the brakes, slowly increase the throttle, look at the engine speed, wait for it to rise to 1800 rpm, check the temperature, pressure and fuel scale of the lubricating oil, after making sure that everything is normal, slowly release the brakes, let the plane taxi in the middle of the runway, aim at the line in the middle of the runway, and then start to slowly push the throttle to the head, you see...... That's it, then pull the joystick back and voila, we're flying! While operating the plane, Carl explained the meaning and precautions of each action to Hong Tao one by one.

"It's that simple!?" Hong Tao has always thought that it is difficult to fly a plane, but now it seems that it is no different from driving a car, and it is even easier, this thing does not need to be in gear, let alone two feet clutch or something, the whole level of an electric car.

"Aren't we all flying, do you still doubt it? Now just follow this white line on the GPS navigation screen, and you can try it when I pull the plane up a bit. Carl had an apprentice and seemed happier than Hong Tao.

"I'm dangling to the left...... I'm dangling to the right...... Hahahaha, kind of interesting! How fast can this plane fly? Hong Tao finally felt the fun of flying the plane, he took over the control of the plane at the beginning, but after a few minutes of familiarity, he felt that the plane was easier to control in the level flight state than playing a realistic game, but the rudder and joystick were a little heavy.

"Carl, what are you doing! Don't dangle back and forth, is Hong Tao controlling the plane? It's against the law, he doesn't have a pilot's license! While Hong Tao was having fun, Paul's roar suddenly came from the earphones.

"My dear Uncle Paul, you might as well call the Coast Guard plane and shoot me down, you might as well take care of your own plane!" Karl was annoyed by Paul's voice, and his joy immediately disappeared, and he unceremoniously replied to his uncle a few words, and then took back control of the plane, pushing the accelerator to his head with all his might.

"By the way, Carl, this plane won't be without a parachute!" Since Paul was not happy, then Hong Tao did not move the joystick, and after this leisure, Hong Tao suddenly found a big problem that made his scalp tingle, he did not find a parachute! I definitely didn't carry it on my back, and I didn't have it behind the seat.

"Parachute? Oh, don't worry, this plane doesn't have to carry a parachute. Karl made Hong Tao stunned.

"Why?" Hong Tao was very uneasy.

"This is a new technology from Cirrus, they put the parachute on the tail of the plane, do you see the red latch under the seat? If there is a problem with the plane, the latch is pulled off, and the whole plane is carried by parachute and slowly landed. Carl saw that Hong Tao was a little nervous, and smiled and told Hong Tao the secret of the plane.

"Airplanes can also carry parachutes! High-tech, isn't this a space shuttle! Hong Tao lowered his head and confirmed the red latch that Carl had mentioned, and finally put his mind at ease.

"The space shuttle is a parachute, which is used to shorten the glide distance when landing, which is different from this one." Carl corrected Hongtao's professional mistakes.

"Carl, do you know how much this plane costs? Does it cost money to use? Hong Tao didn't care about whether it was a parachute or a parachute, he was a little moved.

"This model is about 300,000 US dollars, and my other uncle has such an aircraft at home, which is the Cirrus SR20, and now there is the SR22 type, which is more powerful than this function, and it is slightly more expensive, about 500,000 yuan. If you use it, the fuel cost is about 150 US dollars per hour, which is related to your load capacity, flight speed, weather conditions, if you rent a hangar and maintenance, it is almost 10,000 US dollars per year, the airport in the east is slightly more expensive, and the Midwest is cheaper, you want to buy a plane, and you do not live in the United States, it is not suitable to buy a plane, you can rent it, so it is more cost-effective. Carl seems to know more about the plane, and basically answers Hong Tao's question clearly. (To be continued......)
