Chapter 461 - Before the Opening
iBefore the opening of Section 461
"Reporting to the 'Seine' base, the Sukhoi 'Gregory' flying squadron is ready. I am the captain 'Mayflower' and start leading the team into the waiting area!"
"'Seine' received. It's a sunny day today with a southeasterly wind of level 4. The outdoor temperature is 31 degrees Celsius and the air pressure is 1076 Pa. The density of suspended particles in the atmosphere is good. The radar has been turned on and takeoff is allowed!"
This "Seine" Air Force Base is a small airport temporarily closed by the French government in 200, and only maintains the most basic maintenance of the site. In order to provide related services to aviation exhibitors around the world, the French government specially mobilized manpower from Orly Airport as a It took two months to reopen the airport. Even the airport communication and radar monitoring support of the flight command center are mobile military communication stations and radar base stations.
The call at the temporary command center of the "Seine" Air Force Base had just ended when a voice from the command center of Le Bourget Airport, 12 kilometers northeast of Paris, also intervened: "This is Le Bourget Airport. Please turn on g positioning and maintain the communication channel. It is expected that See you in eleven minutes! Good luck, boys!”
"Thank you gentlemen from France. The 'Gregorie' squadron has received it. Please pay attention to all aircraft. The two-plane formation takes off. The take-off angle is 40 degrees. The formation distance is 500 meters. Pay attention to avoid wake turbulence. 'No. 7' you are following. Finally, we adopt an oblique formation and now begin the final inspection of the ejection device."
As the captain, "Mayflower" Kameni Ivanov carefully directed every plane, even the new team "No. 7" took special care of it.
"Okay, Captain, I've received 'Snowflake'! I'll follow the Captain!"
"Yes, captain, 'Magician' received it! I will be the second group with 'Pearl Oyster'."
"Okay, 'Magician', 'Pearl Oyster' confirms the order!"
"'Sargassum' is confirmed, 'Trout' and I will form the third group!"
"'Trout' confirmed, 'No. 7' don't fall behind!"
"'No. 7' received!"
"Grigori Squadron, taxi now!"
In order to take care of Lin Mo, the Russian pilots on the communication channel all used English. Although it was a bit tongue-in-cheek, it did not affect communication.
The seven Su-27s have almost become the largest source of noise in the entire French Air Force airport. The roar of 14 41f propulsion engines can be clearly heard even five kilometers away.
The surging sound of the engines attracted the attention of many people. It was almost like a squadron formation.
This is an excellent opportunity to observe, especially when other countries are waiting for the transition and take-off sequence, they walked to the side of the runway and half-covered their ears to watch the Russian Su-27 formation take off.
Captains "Mayflower" and "Snowflake" two Su-27s rushed onto the runway, only 30 meters apart. At an increasingly faster taxiing speed, after sprinting for 600 meters, they raised their noses high and shot into the sky. .
Ten seconds later, the second and third two-plane formations soared into the sky.
The last "Flanker" followed closely behind, and after flying around the entire air force base in the sky, it followed the six "Flankers" in front, forming a medium-sized formation of seven aircraft in a diagonal formation.
Viewed from the ground, the diagonal line formed by seven fighter jets cuts across the sky. Not only is the auditory effect stunning, but the visual effect is also quite shocking.
As for Lin Mo’s marching backpack that he couldn’t carry on the plane, it was full of dry food and had no secrets at all. Before he boarded the plane, it was handed over to Engineer Sergei Sulotov of Sukhoi Company for safekeeping in advance. After they arrive at Le Bourget Airport from the ground, they will return it to Lin Mo.
"Oh! Look, look, Sukhoi's aircraft are so impressive. Why don't they fly in devil formation!" The only other pilot on the ground next to Sukhoi stood on the wing of the MiG-29, with his palms raised to his eyes. Fang blocked the sun and watched the seven fighter jets retreating.
The mechanic who was inspecting the plane immediately stopped what he was doing, looked at the pilots from his own country with wide eyes, and said incredulously: "Seven? Devil's formation? Are you crazy? That's not a devil's formation, that's a suicide formation." !Do you have a grudge against the Mayflower? Boom! A big firework exploded in the sky!"
As he spoke, he gestured with his hand to make a big fireball shape.
The diamond-shaped formation of six fighter jets with a distance of less than five meters and a height difference of only one meter can be said to be an extremely dangerous flying formation. Once a collision occurs, there is almost a danger of annihilation of the entire army. If the wreckage of the plane falls into the crowd of spectators on the ground , which can take away at least a thousand lives.
At present, there are no more than one flight demonstration team in the world that has mastered this kind of formation. Without the technical conditions of real materials, no flying team dares to take such a big risk and use this kind of formation to show off.
What's more, with the addition of another fighter jet, the risk increases exponentially with each additional fighter jet. Although we know that the pilots participating in this aerospace exhibition are all elites from various countries, but the Sukhoi Flying Team's No matter how brave they are, they would not dare to let a new Chinese pilot insert themselves into their aerobatic team.
Therefore, during the formation, the "Gregory" squadron arranged Lin Mo to be at the end of the team.
"There are exactly seven fighter jets, and maybe we can also set up the Big Dipper array in the east. This is definitely a good idea. I will definitely tell the people from 'Gregori' next time!"
The MiG pilot smiled and disapproved, and he knew very well that what the mechanic said was not wrong, but that he was just jealous of the "Gregory" flying squadron working for Sukhoi.
The MiG is in the sunset, and research and development funds are tight. The pilots working for the MiG naturally do not earn as much as the pilots working for Sukhoi.
Accompanied by a huge roar, the Su-27 formation disappeared from the sight of the people at the "Seine River" base with the thunder.
"Hello everyone, this is Gilles Lebre, the host of French TV 4. Next to me is Mr. Martin de Polignac, an aviation enthusiast. Our current location is the Paris-Le Bourget International Aerospace Exhibition. "The meeting place is Le Bourget Airport." In front of a camera, the TV host in a suit made a simple self-introduction and opening remarks. When the cooperating guests heard the introduction of themselves, they bowed slightly in time. , showed his presence, and heard the host continue to say: "In two days, this international aviation and aerospace exhibition will officially open. Although it does not open today, a large number of tourists from all over the world have gathered here."
At this time, the live broadcast video quickly switched to the camera lens facing another scene, an auditorium made of sturdy scaffolding, stretching for several kilometers.
None of the cargo planes that usually take off and land regularly have appeared. In order to hold this exhibition, the cargo functions of Le Bourget Airport were shared between Charles de Gaulle Airport and Orly Airport. According to the command and dispatch of the French Air Traffic Control Bureau, the cargo plane was originally supposed to land. Cargo planes at this airport are diverted elsewhere.
There is no busy air transportation in the past, but the large green area makes it look more like a big park.
The vast lawn was crowded with people playing, and there were even many tents dotted on the lawn. The bold girls simply wore three-point bikinis and used the lawn as a beach. Some simply spread out blankets and sunbathed. The waves of her buttocks and breasts, with her lustrous flesh, attract the attention of men. With French romance, I am afraid that this will lead to countless good relationships.
The entire Le Bourget Airport is so popular that it has almost become a tourist attraction for tourists from all over the world. Although the exhibition has not yet opened, it has already attracted a lot of people.
About 500 meters away, a clear warning line isolates the main runway of Le Bourget Airport, and there may be planes at any time.
On the other side, the area that accounts for almost one-third of the entire airport is also separated by a cordon, and is even guarded by armed personnel and military dogs. The security is even tighter, with a buffer distance of about 60 meters, one inside and one outside. The isolation wall can be seen from a distance, and the exhibition areas for exhibitors from various countries that have completed most of the construction are still in the final stages of intensive finishing. You can even see that Xiao He has revealed his sharp corners.
In the exhibition area for aerospace exhibitors from various countries, the "Little Lotus" exposed in sight after climbing over the height of the separation wall is not a real Little Lotus, but a launch vehicle model of China, the United States and Russia, which is as high as several floors. Although the rocket model has been reduced in scale, it is still very visually impactful.
After the opening ceremony, the first people to be welcomed in this aerospace exhibition area were not tourists from all over the world, but various parties and political dignitaries. Large orders would be signed in the next few days. Ten thousand dollars a day is far from enough. In other words, this is also the most important day every year for aerospace manufacturers in various countries.
At this time, the brief picture of Le Bourget Airport from various angles was switched to the host Gilles Lebre. At this time, there was a buzzing sound in the picture, as if thunder was rolling in the distant sky. The camera first looked at the host and The guests paused for a moment, and the camera zoomed past them and pointed behind them.
Nearly a thousand meters long, on the grassland that has been cleared of crowds, there are eight tall pillars, which seem to be welded out of steel bars. They are about one meter in diameter. It may take two or three people to hug each other. There are sticks inserted at the top of each pillar. A colorful flag, but it makes it difficult to understand what these seven or eight-story pillars are used for.
At this time, the host's voice-over appeared at the right time, "Behind us is the flight demonstration venue of Le Bourget Airport where aircraft models are displayed for aviation model enthusiasts from France and other countries before the opening ceremony. Mr. De Polignac, As an aviation enthusiast, you should also have a certain understanding of model aircraft. Can you give us an introduction? I am very curious about how these model aircraft, which are so lifelike and almost exactly the same as the real thing, fly in the sky."
