Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    But this American is too unnatural, right?  Training crew members for the Eighth Route Army is a kind of preferential treatment for the Eighth Route Army.  The Eighth Route Army should be tearful of gratitude, how could it be possible to pick and choose?  Just now, how can you protest to the Americans like this?  And under his protest, Americans seem to really care.  This made Chu Yunfei a little confused.  After all, he had no idea how capable Qin Baoshan was.

    Major Cromlin hurriedly explained: "My friend. That's what happened. The base runway of the Eighth Route Army is relatively small, and it can only take off the B-25 bomber. This kind of B-24 bomber needs a larger runway and airport equipment.  The base being built by the Jinsui Army is much larger than yours, so they can meet the needs of this bomber. The range of this bomber is one or two thousand kilometers longer than that of the B-25 bomber, so we  Flying to Japan to bomb, the fuel will be more abundant. Therefore, in the future, we plan that the b-25 fleet will still land at the base of the Eighth Route Army, and the b-24 bomber fleet will land at the airport of the Jinsui Army, so the Jinsui Army and the Central Army  The aircraft they operate are mainly B-24 bombers, and they will also take off with us to bomb Japan."

    Such an explanation is reasonable, and it was also prepared by Major Cromlin long ago.  Hearing what he said now, Qin Baoshan's face looked better.  Qin Baoshan thought for a while, and then said to him: "Airplanes can be treated differently, but in terms of flight training, I hope you don't fool us. We have a common enemy now, and we came together for the same goal. I don't want  Because something is interfering with our cooperation with each other."

    Major Kromlin nodded again and again: "Of course there is no problem. Those who fly to the Eighth Route Army are our people who have returned from the battlefield. Some of the instructors have landed in your base before. They feel very good about the Eighth Route Army.  .¡±

    Of course the Americans knew about these things, so the instructors responsible for flying the Eighth Route Army were all pilots who had a good relationship with the Eighth Route Army. When he heard this, Qin Baoshan's face became normal.  Then he said to Major Cromlin, "Can we take a look on the B-24 bomber?"

    It is impossible to fly this kind of aircraft.  The Eighth Route Army has already suffered a disadvantage, so now Qin Baoshan said that he would go up and have a look.  If this request is not satisfied, Qin Baoshan will probably be unhappy again, so Major Kromlin nodded: "Of course there is no problem, I will take you up to have a look."

    It's just a simple inspection of the plane, of course there will be no major problems.  Major Cromlin planned to take Qin Baoshan and others to another row of planes.  You can't visit with these people sent by the Jinsui Army, maybe they will make some sparks again

    Qin Baoshan glanced at Chu Yunfei, and then said: "Brother Yunfei, see you later." Since Chu Yunfei is here, Qin Baoshan is here for the time being, so we will definitely see each other often in the future.  Maybe at night, the two sides will have to meet.

    Qin Baoshan said politely and cupped his hands.  Chu Yunfei also cupped his hands, so the two said goodbye like this.  Qin Baoshan took a step forward and quickly walked towards the b-24 bomber on the other side.  At the same time, his heart was also inexplicably excited, and he was thinking about the historical origin of this bomber.

    Before World War II, the United States had been equipped with the b-17 bomber produced by Boeing. Seeing that the war was coming, the Americans were very anxious and hoped to increase the production of this bomber. Therefore, Boeing could not eat alone  Now, the production must be distributed to other companies. At that time, the senior executives of the United Aircraft Company also visited Boeing's Seattle bomber factory. However, they did not eat Boeing's leftovers and joined in the fun to produce the b-17 bomber.  Instead, a more advanced bomber design was submitted to the Army.

    Under the turbulent situation, the U.S. Army did not engage in any bidding, and directly asked United to develop a new type of bomber based on this bomber plan. Therefore, under this contract, the xb-24 bomber plan came out, which eventually became World War II.  The famous b-24 bomber.

    The first b-24 bomber left the factory on December 29, 1939. At that time, it received a large number of orders, including orders from the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom called this bomber the Liberator, and the Americans used the same code name.

    As a heavy bomber, it is obviously different from the b-25 bomber.  First of all, it is very large in terms of size.  When standing under the plane, you can feel how huge the plane is, which makes people feel small, which is not felt on the b-25.

    The wingspan of this aircraft is 33.5 meters, 1.8 meters wider than the B-17 bomber, and its height is also 5.5 meters, so if you sit on it, it will be on the roof of the second floor.

    At this time, Qin Baoshan was standing at the nose of the aircraft.  This alsoDifferent national conditions have emerged, and Americans like to paint and paint on their planes very much.  On the nose of this bomber, a shark's big mouth is drawn.  The open mouth and sharp teeth looked very imposing.

    Americans have always advocated freedom, and they are careless in everything they do. Many Americans even have a beautiful woman painted on the back of their flying leather jackets.

    Just under the plane, Major Cromlin said to Qin Baoshan: "This kind of plane is too big. Your hangars can't store such planes."

    Qin Baoshan nodded.  For this matter, he has been able to understand.  He said to Major Cromlin: "My friend, you are right, we really cannot accommodate these big guys. But I have a small request, I hope you can help."

    Since it was a small request, Major Cromlin didn't care.  He said to Qin Baoshan: "Whatever you want, I will try my best to help."

    Major Kromlin knew that Qin Baoshan¡¯s small request must be for something. He didn¡¯t know how many things he had asked for with Major Kromlin, and now Major Kromlin was used to it.  Qin Baoshan definitely didn't want to fly a plane around the sky for fun, but wanted something.

    Now that Major Kromlin has already patted his chest and agreed, of course Qin Baoshan will not be polite. He said to Major Kromlin: "I really like the leather jackets worn by your pilots. And flying in the sky, this kind of  The leather jackets are really nice, I hope you can get us a leather jacket for each of us. I want one too. By the way, there are also flying sunglasses, and boots. In short, a full set of flying personal equipment, provide us with  A batch." (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
