Chapter 1285 Showing the Greatest Respect

The next day, in the hangar where the Boeing 747 was parked, twenty-four gray-haired former American Flying Tigers, dressed in military uniforms of the U.S. military during World War II, stood outside the spiral staircase for a long time, unwilling to board, accompanied by their families. machine.

It has been half an hour beyond the scheduled registration time, but these old people stared at the familiar shark mouth painting on the Boeing 747, and they were moved to tears.

Modern Americans don't know the paint designed by Disney for the Flying Tigers during World War II. The old people never imagined that this paint, which they haven't seen for many years and is of extraordinary significance to them, will be Appears on a Boeing 747.

The unique fighter livery during World War II has now been reproduced on a modern passenger fuselage. The ancient and the modern are intertwined, which reminds these old people of the prosperous years of that year and the life course of so many years after leaving the battlefield.

The old people hugged each other and wept, and the family members on the side also cuddled with each other, watching their lovers, fathers, and grandpas sigh and sigh. At this moment, these infinitely old old people are shining with infinite great brilliance.

The boarding time has passed, and the control tower is urging the plane to prepare for taxiing and queuing for takeoff. The captain couldn't bear to interrupt the precious emotions of these old people. He could only explain to the control tower that the boarding was delayed, and he could only postpone the take-off time by one hour. .

The accompanying photographers have been taking pictures all the time. These photographers who have been moved to the extreme are also trying their best to leave the most precious and perfect memories for these old people, as well as for future generations. The next most precious record.

A photographer from China suddenly suggested: "Let's help you take a photo with the plane, just like the photo you took with the plane in the Flying Tigers."

The old people nodded excitedly. An old man wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "When we were in the Flying Tigers, every time I took pictures with the plane, I had to climb on the fuselage and stand at the highest point. It's just that this Boeing airliner is too high to get on."

The old people next to him burst into laughter, and the atmosphere suddenly became a lot more active. The old people stood under the nose of the aircraft one after another.

Photographers from Huaxia and the United States are seriously taking pictures for them from all angles. The family members watched and were also moved by the situation, so they also joined the group photo.

After taking countless photos of these old men, it was time for the second takeoff.

The five-star captain sent by Air China and the captain of the crew this time, Chen Xu, is not in a hurry at all at this moment. Except for applying to the control tower to take off later, he has been at the cabin door, motionless to the old people outside. Pay attention.

Just when the old people hugged each other and wept, Chen Xu also turned around and secretly wiped a handful of tears.

He was also an Air Force pilot, and later transferred to civil aviation. With his superb flying skills and a strong sense of responsibility, he became the best pilot and instructor of Air China. However, because Air China attached great importance to this charter flight, it made a special trip to set up the best crew, so he was sent to be the captain of this charter flight.

Chen Xu had never experienced the war, and the reason why he was so touched, but when he was in the Air Force, one of the pilots he took with him died in the South China Sea two years ago.

The Air Force pilot named Wang Wei was only 33 years old when he died. His first solo flight was under the guidance of Chen Xu. The two had a standard master-apprentice relationship. Two years ago, Wang Wei was ordered to drive the intruder The U.S. reconnaissance plane in the airspace of China collided with the U.S. reconnaissance plane, parachuted out of the sea, whereabouts are unknown, and was finally confirmed dead.

Although Chen Xu had changed jobs for many years when Wang Wei died, the news still made him very sad. At that time, he was preparing for a flight with a flight route. quantity,

When he got up, he found that the usual unsmiling captain, a man in his fifties, was stunned that he was crying in the cockpit and became a three-year-old child.

Except for the two flight attendants who left behind to receive the boarding passengers, everyone in the entire crew rushed into the cockpit to comfort Chen Xu. At that time, they thought that something had happened to Chen Xu's home, but later they found out that the captain was there. Before taking off, I received a message from an old comrade-in-arms. After many days of searching, the military officially announced that the hero had died, so the hope for a miracle was shattered in an instant, and all that was left was sadness.

At this time, when Chen Xu saw these old pilots who had experienced World War II, the first thing that came to his mind was the hero who slept in the South China Sea. After all, it was almost his second anniversary, and some people were still thinking about fifty or sixty. The old hero from years ago, I don't know how many people still miss the young hero who sacrificed less than two years.

After secretly crying, the flight attendant came to Chen Xu and said in his ear, "Captain, it's almost time to let the old people board the plane. Let me tell you on the second that the tower is already urging you."

Chen Xu nodded, took a long sigh, and said, "Go and talk to our volunteer representatives from Huaxia. According to the regulations, you can't get off the plane casually at this time."

"Okay." The purser immediately agreed, and was about to walk down the spiral staircase when he suddenly turned around and said to Chen Xu, "Captain, I believe 81194 will also be remembered by everyone."

Chen Xu glanced at her in surprise, and nodded gratefully and gratified.

The plane number of Wang Wei’s death was 81194. Many people thought that the 81192 fighter plane in the photo was the plane number of the fighter plane that Wang Wei was flying when he died. In fact, the photo was not taken on the day of the impact. , On the day of the impact, the number of the fighter Wang Wei was actually driving was 81194.

This purser has worked with Chen Xu for many years, and is also a five-star purser of Air China. He knows Chen Xu very well. When Chen Xu was crying in the cockpit, she was by her side, and just now, Chen Xu quietly wiped away his tears. She also saw the actions in her eyes. She knew almost instantly who Chen Xu was crying for.

The purser conveyed the tower's request to the volunteer representative of Huaxia, who was also the person in charge of Huaxia this time. It is convenient to quickly explain the situation to these veterans who were still taking photos and watching under the shark's mouth. When I heard that the plane had been delayed When it took more than an hour to take off, everyone cooperated and began to prepare for boarding.

All the crew members were concentrated inside and outside the cabin door. The captain and co-pilot stood on both sides of the spiral staircase outside the cabin door, with a solemn and respectful expression, salute every old man who passed by, and said in English: "Welcome to take a flight with China Airlines. It is our honor to serve you."

The old people also responded very politely. An old man even held Chen Xu's hand and said, "Are you going to change the paint of the plane after this flight?"

Chen Xu hurriedly said: "No sir, in order to show respect for you and the old Flying Tigers like you, China Airlines has reached an agreement with the Veterans Undying Charity Foundation, and will keep the plane's livery forever. Until the plane is retired!"

When the old man heard the news, he immediately said excitedly: "It's great, it's really great, I hope your plane will be able to fly to the United States more frequently in the future, I'm too old, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do it again in the future. I have the ability to go to Huaxia, if I never see her again, it will be a pity, if she will fly to the United States, I will definitely go to the airport to see her more!"

Chen Xu's eyes were red, and he hurriedly said: "I will definitely feedback your request to the company. I hope that in the future, this plane will be able to fly to Huaxia to the United States at a fixed value."

The old man was very excited and shouted: "Hey brothers, did you hear? This plane will not be repainted in the future, and she may still fly to the United States on a regular basis!"

The people who had already boarded the plane, those who got on the spiral staircase, and those who were about to board the plane burst into cheers. They all thought that the plane was worth flying over and the livery of this flight would be changed back. I didn’t expect that it would be preserved forever. Regular flights to the US are great news for them.

Spielberg sighed in his heart. When he thought of his mood when he filmed "Schindler's List", just like Li Mu, he hoped that the world would remember the hardships his nation encountered in those years, but he obviously did not have what Li Mu thought. More far-reaching, he only made a movie, but Li Mu planned a whole set of huge plans, in which all kinds of thoughts and wide-ranging considerations made Spielberg also sigh.

After half an hour.

The Boeing 747 painted with an alternative shark mouth took off in the sky, flying towards China and the hometown where countless fierce air battles took place.

The old people on the plane were very excited. They shouted the slogan they had long thought of on the plane excitedly: "Fifty-eight years later, we are back!"

...

At 10:30 a.m. on the 14th day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the weather is fine at the Southwest Spring City Airport.

The sky is beautiful, the weather in Spring City today is surprisingly good, the sky is clear for thousands of miles, and the visibility is beyond the sky.

The temperature is not too cold, and the sun is warm on the body, which makes people very comfortable.

There is no media at the airport, there are only film crews hired by the Veteran Undying Foundation, and frontline reporters from YY.com. All the Flying Tigers from China are waiting on the prepared tarmac at the airport. The relationship with the airport is not about Li Mu. The dredging was done by the Yun Provincial Military Region.

The military region has a very high right to speak at the civil aviation airport, because legally speaking, the airspace is controlled by the military, and everything in civil aviation must be subject to the military's dispatch, so the military has put forward a request. Although the airport does not know why, it is still To act according to the rules.

At this time, the Boeing 747 of Air China was already preparing to enter the airport. After more than ten hours of flight, although the elderly were tired, their emotions were extremely excited. They also don't know that the airspace that the plane passed through at the moment was the place where they flew the plane and fought the Japanese army.

Chen Xu and the tower had a routine communication before approaching. After the air traffic control of the tower made the approach docking with 747, they suddenly received an order from the superior and immediately said to 747: "The superior requires you to be at an altitude of 300 before entering the field. Fly around the field five times."

Chen Xu was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "The superior's request?"

The other party was actually very surprised in his heart, but he could only answer: "Yes, the order from the leader of the military region is required to be executed, and there is a six-character postscript: express the greatest respect!"
