“According to the route of civil aviation, once it has to bypass Syria, the flight distance will increase by nearly two thousand kilometers.”
“As a result, our business jets will not be able to fly in a single breath. We must find a stopover airport midway to refuel.”
“In this case, it will be necessary to coordinate the stopover and supply airports, and then take off after landing, refueling, and regular inspections. There will be a delay of one or two hours.”
“And when you arrived in Lebanon, there is still big trouble. Because it is too close to Syria, the border has been temporarily closed in order to avoid the war spill. If you want to travel from Lebanon to Syria, you can only sneak across the borderline…”
Charlie nodded, and said solemnly, “Even if you want to sneak across the border, a straight distance of less than 100 kilometers will save a lot of time.”
Issac hurriedly said: “Master, crossing the border is not a joke. Both countries are heavily guarded. In an extraordinary period, if someone illegally crosses the border, either party has the right to shoot directly. Moreover, now Syria is not only governed by the Syrian government forces but the opposition forces as well. The situation is too complicated and it is difficult to penetrate into it!”
Charlie waved his hand and said calmly, “This is actually not a problem. I have my own way to cross the border.”
With that, Charlie said a little annoyedly: “The most important thing is that the flight time is too long. It was originally necessary to fly for at least nine hours. If it takes a detour, it will take another two or three hours to fly. The key is There will be another stop in the middle, and another hour or two will be added. After this calculation, it will take at least thirteen or four hours to fly to Lebanon. It’s too long. The lives of people over there are too precious. I’m afraid things won’t last so long. time…….”
Issac also fell into deep thought. He pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought of something, and blurted out: “Master, at present, there is an only solution that will allow you to fly from Aurous Hill to Lebanon in four and a half hours! It’s just that I can’t do this plan, only you can try it yourself.”
Charlie hurriedly asked: “What plan?!”
Issac hurriedly reminded: “Master, do you remember that when you went to Changbai Mountain to ambush the eight heavenly kings in advance, I told you that your grandfather spent a lot of money on a Concorde airliner?”
“The flight speed of the Concorde is 2.5 times that of a civil aviation aircraft. Moreover, the Concorde that your grandpa bought has also been specially modified and upgraded, which reduces the carrying capacity and increases the fuel capacity of the aircraft. A single refueling can exceed Flying 10,000 kilometers at the speed of sound, there is no need to land and refuel in the middle. It will take you to Lebanon in more than four hours!
