Volume Four, Volume 40, Chapter 45, An Unusual Night
As long as he controls his own strength and uses a little more strength than an ordinary person, he can start the plane the second time, and Zhang Tie is in a great mood.
"Hahaha..." Zhang Tie laughed and happily ran from the nose of the aircraft to the belly of the aircraft again. He first removed the anti-slip lock on the ground that blocked the wheels of the aircraft's landing gear, and then got out of the belly of the aircraft.
, jumped lightly, and sat in the cockpit. He looked at the crowd, winked at Zhang Su, who was also shocked, and looked at the cockpit behind him with his eyes. Zhang Su did not hesitate at all.
The boy ran over, nimbly jumped onto the wing of the plane, opened the rear cockpit and sat in.
Zhang Tie definitely had a purpose in calling his cousin Zhang Su at this time. Zhang Su may have been unknown before, but from the moment he jumped on the plane, the name Zhang Su was destined to leave a mark in history.
Because this is the first test flight of the first aircraft invented when mankind entered the Black Iron Age more than 900 years after the Cataclysm. This is a great attempt to allow ordinary people to conquer the sky again. In addition to Zhang Tie, everyone who participated in this test flight
Among them is Zhang Su.
Just because this is the first time for the human race in this era, it has extraordinary significance. Zhang Su's name is destined to be remembered. Zhang Su is too inconspicuous now. In the future, Zhang Su will do things around him.
It's impossible without a little bit of fame.
Of course, Zhang Tie wanted to keep such an opportunity to himself instead of bothering others. These aircraft were all brought here after completing the composition and ground engine performance tests, and have not yet officially flown.
This was Zhang Tie's intention, but at this time, even the onlookers probably didn't react. Because up to now, the other people are still in shock. I don't know what method Zhang Tie used to make the plane
Even though the engine was spinning, it was not entirely certain that the plane could fly into the sky.
Zhang Tie closed the canopy, and Zhang Su also closed the canopy in the same manner. The entire aircraft slowly started to move under everyone's gaze, and after a short circle in the warehouse, it drove out.
He walked through the warehouse door and came to the airship landing field outside.
The flat airship and airship landing sites became the runway for the plane. Zhang Tie drove the plane and gradually increased the throttle. The speed of the plane became faster and faster. After rushing out a few hundred meters, he sat on the plane.
Zhang Tie and Zhang Su inside both felt their whole bodies light up. The entire aircraft, under the gaze of all those who walked out of the warehouse, suddenly flew up. After leaving the ground, the landing gear of the aircraft also slowed down.
Slowly it was received under the wing.
Zhang Tie piloted the plane and flew around Xuantian Peak.
The roar of the aircraft engine caused many people on Xuantian Peak to look up at the sky, and they were all surprised.
But soon, Zhang Tie became completely familiar with the driving essentials and tips of this aircraft. This aircraft can do more and more actions in the sky. It is constantly rolling, climbing, and doing various things in the night sky.
A kind of maneuverable movement, as flexible as a big bird or like a monkey climbing up a tree.
Zhang Tie waited until Zhang Tie drove the plane around in the sky several times. Zhang Tie drove the plane from a height of more than three meters above the hangar and flew close to the hangar. It was about to hit Xuantian Peak.
As he climbed the mountain wall, he quickly pulled up at 90 degrees and performed a beautiful spin in the air before waking up the stunned people below.
Bai Zhengnan patted his head and was the first to fly up, chasing the plane driven by Zhang Tie in the sky. Then Pengshan Zhenren, Feng Cangwu, Bai Suxian, and Lu Zhongming and his wife all flew up one by one.
, caught up with the plane driven by Zhang Tie in the blink of an eye...
Soon, Zhang Tie knew the result of flying a plane to show off in front of a group of knights. He was watched in the air.
Bai Zhengnan flew to the left wing of the plane, Pengshan Zhenren flew to the other wing of the plane, Bai Suxian and Lu Zhongming flew above the plane, Feng Cangwu flew directly to the front of the plane, looking at the plane, he was flying upside down...
Of course, the speed of this plane cannot keep up with the knights, so it is very easy for these people to watch.
Everyone looked at the plane and Zhang Tie with burning eyes, making Zhang Tie feel like he was in a cage being watched by people. At a speed of more than 600 kilometers per hour, the onlookers and the plane remained in a certain state of stillness.
No matter how Zhang Tie moved, the distance between the surrounding knights and the plane did not change. Everyone watched and marveled.
Fortunately, they were all acquaintances, so Zhang Tie didn't feel too embarrassed. He just tested the performance of the aircraft to his heart's content. The people around him just watched quietly and did not bother Zhang Tie. As a knight, they all knew that Zhang Tie
At this moment, everyone has already felt how important what Tie is doing now is. They are not curious to see some interesting new things at the moment, but are witnessing with their own eyes at the first scene something that can change this era.
The emergence of a powerful weapon in the sky that compared the power of the human race with the demon race.
The Candle Dragon Territory is calm under the night, with lights dotted, but in the sky above this peaceful land, the first human plane of this era is spreading its wings in the sky for the first time. This day is the 904th year of the Black Iron Calendar.
February 6th.
As Zhang Tie continued to climb vertically, the Xuantian Peak, which was more than 8,000 meters high, was suddenly left behind by Zhang Tie. The roar of the aircraft engine also became sharper, but it was still calm. Zhang Tie watched
The aircraft's altimeter was used to feel the aircraft's performance. When it climbed to an altitude of nearly 12,500 meters, Zhang Tie tried several times. No matter how loud the aircraft's engine roared, the aircraft could no longer climb.
Afterwards, Zhang Tie lowered the altitude appropriately, controlled the altitude of the aircraft to more than 4,000 meters, and drove the aircraft directly towards Tianxuan City.
In just over ten minutes, Tianxuan City appeared at Zhang Tie's feet.
Tianxuan City is a big city with a lot of people. Although it has already fallen into the night, the night is very good tonight, and the sky is full of stars. When the plane driven by Zhang Tie flew over Tianxuan City, the metallic plane was shining under the starlight.
It was like a shuttle flying over Tianxuan City, and it was accompanied by the roar of an engine. Many people in Tianxuan City saw it and there was a slight commotion.
After flying over Tianxuan City, Zhang Tie simply flew the plane in the core circle of Zhulong Territory, and successively flew the plane over Xinlu City, Langyun City, Ning'an City, Cedar City, and Yan in Zhulong Territory.
Near Decheng, Qinghe City, Dacheng City, Wugong City and Dongyang City. After spending more than five hours to create a large circle, I don’t know how much commotion it caused in the cities below, and finally flew along the Yangui Mountains again.
Come back.
When the plane was about to fly to the Eighteen Peaks of Xuantian again, Zhang Tie's heart moved and he directly said to the "onlookers" outside, "The steam engine crossbow of the plane has not been tested yet. Why don't everyone spread out and use their own body protection and combat skills?"
Release your anger, pretend to be a Winged Demon, and try out the air combat capability of this aircraft!"
For the knights, as soon as the protective fighting spirit is released, the power of the steam crossbow on the plane is like scratching an itch, and there is no threat at all. I heard that Zhang Tie wanted to try this plane
Everyone found it interesting and nodded in agreement, just like playing a game, releasing their protective fighting spirit and at the same time widening the distance between themselves and the aircraft.
After telling Zhang Su to start, Zhang Su, who was sitting in the back cabin, operated the steam engine crossbow on the plane and started experimenting with a bunch of knights.
The power of the steam crossbow has not decreased, and it is placed on the aircraft and operated by the person behind it. It is also very flexible. When the aircraft is flying normally, in addition to the direction of the propeller in front of the nose, the tail section of the aircraft and the bottom of the fuselage
, there are basically no shooting blind spots, and these shooting blind spots can still be shot as Zhang Tie adjusts his flight attitude.
Compared with the freedom of flying an airplane and the ability to move around restricted by airflow in a glider, its flexibility and maneuverability in the sky are completely incomparable.
Bai Zhengnan and Pengshan Zhenren found it interesting. After Zhang Su finished firing the crossbow magazine stored in the aircraft's crossbow, Zhang Tie said hello to everyone before flying the aircraft back to Xuantian Peak.
We landed on the same runway, and finally slowly drove the plane into the hangar.
It took almost six hours to go back and forth. By the time Zhang Tie flew the plane back to Xuantian Peak again, it was already almost 1 o'clock in the morning on February 7.
Tang De, a group of disciples from the Iron Dragon Sect, and several disciples from Lu Zhongming and his wife were all waiting in the hangar, waiting for Zhang Tie to come back.
Everything that happened today was very shocking to everyone. Not to mention Zhang Tie and a few knights, Tang De and the others, everyone was very excited and no one felt sleepy.
The plane stopped and the propellers stopped rotating. Zhang Tie opened the hatch and was the first to jump out of the cockpit, followed closely by Zhang Su.
A bunch of people gathered around, all looking at Zhang Tie with bright lights, as if they were looking at a cherished prehistoric monster. Zhang Tie couldn't help but feel a little hairy. Such a look, even if he was turning the wheel a few days ago,
Zhang Tie had never encountered the scene of a grand ceremony.
Several knights did not speak. The surrounding Iron Dragon Sect disciples and Tang De felt that the atmosphere was strange at this time, and they did not dare to speak.
Zhang Tie spread his hands and said, "Don't look at me like that, just say what you have to say!"
Zhang Tie was the first to break the silence.
"The maximum flight altitude is 12,500 meters!" Feng Cangwu was the first to speak,
"The top speed is about 700 kilometers per hour!" Lu Zhongming said.
"The power of the crossbow on the plane is good in the sky. It is more flexible than the weapons on the airship and faster than the airship." Bai Suxian nodded and said.
"In the past few hours, this plane has flown about 3,800 kilometers. How many more kilometers can it fly now?" Bai Zhengnan looked at Zhang Tie and asked a question.
"There is still half of the fuel in the plane's fuel tank..." Zhang Tie replied simply.
"That means the maximum combat radius of this aircraft is about 3,800 kilometers, and the maximum flight distance is at least 7,600 kilometers..." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Guangnan Palace took a deep breath and looked deeply with deep eyes.
Zhang Tie, "Just with this plane, the Iron Dragon Sect can become famous among the human race!"
Before Zhang Tie could say anything, Tang De suddenly coughed twice, "Well, it's already late now. Don't stand here, it's very cold. If you have anything to say, go back to the resting place and talk..."
Let's go back to the resting place, that is, let Zhang Tie and a group of knight masters have a place to talk alone. This is indeed not a place to discuss important matters.
