No wonder Valerio is.
We should know that not long after typhoon 11, the weather along the east coast of Zhejiang Province is still unstable, with thick clouds, thunderstorms and other severe convective weather.
If it's a fixed wing aircraft, it's no big deal that it can fly safely for a period of time at an altitude of more than 10000 meters to avoid the thick rain layer.
But the rotorcraft has no such ability, because the maximum flight altitude of this kind of airplane is about 6000 meters, and the normal mission altitude is below 1000 meters. At this altitude, it is extremely affected by the weather, and it can basically catch up with the wind and rain.
Because of this, the rotorcraft has a very high demand for weather conditions, especially in the case of unstable wind, because the changeable wind direction can easily cause the aerodynamic stability of the rotorcraft. A little better is that the rotorcraft is forced to return due to unstable operation, and a little worse is that the rotorcraft is forced to stall and land. Even the collapse of the rotorcraft in the air due to the sudden change of wind speed has not happened.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, helicopters and other rotorcraft must be fully prepared for the weather before they can carry out the mission. Just like the hh-65 helicopter on the rush, the reason why it dares to carry out the mission of rescuing its citizens is not that Valerio is crazy, let alone Yellen's iron head, but that it is based on the hu-25 command patrol aircraft in the front station of the rush shipborne weather radar It is equipped with weather detectors, real-time meteorological data from three geostationary meteorological satellites over the Asia Pacific region, and historical meteorological data accumulated by a large country in East Asia for decades since World War II.
It is these things that can't be seen outside the helicopter platform that make hh-65 helicopter have a window to carry out its mission.
However, the hh-65 helicopter only dares to travel by bare air and does not dare to carry any extra things for fear of accidents.
But the helicopter of a big country in the East doesn't seem to care about these at all.
We should know that the meteorological conditions in the ocean near Lashi, 200 nautical miles away from the Yangtze River Delta, are much better than those in the inland areas. After all, typhoon 11 has just landed, and the meteorological conditions are very chaotic, which is not comparable to those in the ocean far away from the typhoon.
That's all. Does a big country in the East have the all-round and three-dimensional meteorological monitoring means of a big country outside the region? Even if there is, do ordinary helicopters dare to lift under such weather conditions?
We should know that the risk of disorder blowing the lifting objects under the helicopter is easy to cause the center of gravity of the helicopter above to be unstable, especially on the vast ocean, the instantaneous wind is very strong, and if we don't grasp it well, it will lead to aircraft destruction and human death.
Don't the rescue departments of such a common sense big country in the East and West know?
Valentino certainly did not think that the Rescue Department of a big eastern country would make these common sense mistakes.
In this case, it can only illustrate one problem. The Rescue Department of a big eastern country has great confidence in the performance of their helicopters and firmly believes that they can complete the task of rescue around the island.
In fact, it is true. With Yellen's satellite phone gradually transmitting the situation around the island, Valerio soon had a general understanding of the helicopters dispatched by the Rescue Department of a big eastern country.
The fuselage is very compact and uses the extremely rare differential rotor configuration, which eliminates the tail propeller and makes the fuselage lighter and more stable.
Although it's just a few words, Valerio, who has been a pilot of a shipborne helicopter, is still very surprised. He didn't expect that this kind of helicopter is so different and its performance will be so excellent.
Unlike Valerio, who can only use simple language to make up his brain, Yellen is much more intuitive in the surrounding island. He doesn't feel anything in the distance, but the bright red painted by the five-star red flag is just eye-catching.
When the fleet got closer and had a clear view of the plane, Yellen was stunned. It was not the aerodynamic layout of the plane, but the materials hoisted under each plane were bulky and heavy, only more than three tons.
Five is fifteen tons of material.
This is enough to meet most of the urgent needs of the surrounding island with less than 200 people, but what Yellen cares about is not these, but the super lifting ability of the alternative helicopter in the sky.
You know, when the fleet arrived, there was a gust of wind blowing around the island, accompanied by the slow waves, which made the lifting goods swing to one side. However, the helicopter in the sky still had no sign of unstable center of gravity. It was safe to fly and hover as it should be.
Seeing this scene, the whole hh-65 helicopter, including Yellen, was shocked. What does it mean? The stability of the helicopter sent by the Rescue Department of a big eastern country is surprisingly good.
Apart from other things, the hh-65 helicopter they piloted is nothing compared with it. At least, if the hh-65 helicopter hoists goods, it will never fly so easily in the gust. What's more, how can the small body of the hh-65 helicopter lift 3 tons of goods? It will be the sky if it can lift one ton.
Because of this, Yellen felt that only the coast guard's "Black Hawk" helicopter could match it in stability.
Just as Yellen was watching the flying fleet, and the whole people were constantly amazed, Christina around him suddenly cheered, and then called on those companions who were filming Yellen. She cleaned up the shooting equipment, left Yellen and others aside like throwing garbage, and ran to the sun drying field in the west of the village with the equipment, because five alternative helicopters had hovered there One of them has been out of the crowd, ready to put down the lifting goods with the help of fishermen.Christina, who has been concerned about the rescue of the island, can miss this opportunity. Since a big country outside is not used, it is natural to shoot those who give it strength. So it is called urgent, and what awesome shots should be made.
Seeing this, Yellen was stunned for a long time. He felt a sense of shame that he was despised. It seemed that they should be the protagonists of the rescue, and the worst should be a boy. The result was good. Up to now, he is not even a dragon. It's strange that he is not lost.
Of course, we can't pay attention to so much at this time, as long as the island is better than anything else. What's more, Valentino's final decision was also remembered in the satellite phone: "I reported to the commander. At this time, the Commander agreed to your request, and even if necessary, the commander could communicate directly with their commander, so as to ensure that you can safely return to the rush 。”
Yellen breathed a long sigh of relief, glanced at the silent night black man who fell to the ground and was beaten by him and the crew members, spitted hard, and asked his companions to chase after Christina and others.
All the way to the sun drying field in the west of the village, Yellen couldn't take a breath and immediately asked the commander of the fleet. As a result, as soon as he asked, Christina's shooting team burst into laughter. Before Yellen and others reacted, he pointed Christina to the helicopter that was putting down the lifting objects and said with a smile, "you're out, The Rescue Department of a big eastern country is more sci-fi than you think. All the helicopters are unmanned. Where can you find their commander? "
Hearing that, Yellen was so angry that he almost didn't have a mouthful of old blood. But then he realized something, and his voice immediately cried out: "what are you doing? No one in the helicopter? "
