Chapter 84, Condor

The two people were talking like this, and the airport was in front of them. According to American standards, this is a third-level local airport. There are no flights at the airport, and only some general aviation services use this type of airport. Because of this, it is very important to fly at this type of airport.

Airplanes are also relatively simpler. There are no complicated boarding checks or anything like that. Cars can even drive directly to the tarmac, and then people can get off and board the plane directly.

A Gulfstream G650 was already parked here waiting. Mr. Brown drove the car next to the aircraft, stopped the car, and was about to help Lin Qiusheng open the door. However, Lin Qiusheng had already opened the door and got out.

He quickly opened the trunk and planned to help Lin Qiusheng carry his luggage.

"Thank you, Mr. Brown. But if people see that I asked a person who can be my grandfather to help me carry things, my reputation will be ruined." Lin Qiusheng said this while mentioning it himself.

suitcase.

Lin Qiusheng's luggage was quite simple. Apart from a few clothes, a game notebook, and a pipe axe, there was nothing else in the box, so the weight was not actually heavy.

A man in his thirties who had been waiting by the plane also came up to him.

"Ah, Lin, let me introduce, this is my nephew Ralph. He studied the history and culture of the Middle East at Columbia University, and speaks Arabic and Turkish. He worked as a secretary at the consulate in Istanbul for a while

, has some social relations in Turkey, and also knows Patriarch Bardo. Now he is in charge of some business, but now, there is no business more important than the business we are doing. "

Mr. Brown's nephew graduated from Columbia University, which is nothing. For wealthy people like Mr. Brown, most of their families have always been alumni and donors of Columbia University. Lin Qiusheng estimated that Mr. Brown must be qualified to give to Columbia.

Writing letters of recommendation for universities.

However, Mr. Brown's nephew can speak Arabic and Turkish, which really made Lin Qiusheng pay a little attention to him. Arabic is notoriously difficult among various languages, especially some pronunciations. It is said that some people who learn Arabic

In order to pronounce certain sounds accurately, he would even undergo surgery on his mouth.

But even so, after many people have spent a lot of effort to learn standard Arabic, when you actually arrive in Arabia, you may still find that you can’t understand anything those Arabs say - because Arabic

Standard Arabic has not been seriously promoted, and everyone speaks dialects. Even the Arabic characters they write, including local road signs, are still incomprehensible to you, and you can’t look them up in the dictionary because they

It is spelled according to the dialect.

Therefore, Ralph's admission to Columbia University may have relied on letters of recommendation, but if he can learn Arabic, it really shows that he is not the kind of dude who is completely uneducated. In the United States, many times, those who have

When children from rich families receive education, the level of hardship is actually not much lower than in those countries in Asia.

"Hello, you can call me Ralph." Ralph stretched out his hand to Lin Qiusheng.

"Hello, you can call me Lin like my friend." Lin Qiusheng said.

The two said a few more words and then got on the plane together.

The plane quickly took off from the airport and then turned east. It is more than 8,000 kilometers to fly from New York to Istanbul. Although the Gulfstream G650 is faster than most commercial airliners, it still takes about eight hours to fly to Istanbul.

During this time, Lin Qiusheng asked Ralph for advice on Turkey's political and economic situation and things that need to be paid attention to in Turkey.

It was already the morning of the next day when the plane arrived near Istanbul. The time in Istanbul was around nine o'clock the next morning. A flight attendant on the plane suddenly walked into the cabin and said to Lin Qiusheng and Ralph: "Two."

Sir, we just received instructions from the ground that the airport we are going to land at has been temporarily closed for some reason. We need to land at another airport."

"Do you know what caused it?" Lin Qiusheng asked.

The flight attendant shook his head and said, "We don't know either."

"Then where are we going to land?" Ralph asked.

The flight attendant then mentioned a place name.

"It's a little far, but not too far." Ralph said, "Let's contact the ground and ask the airport pick-up person to pick us up there."

"We've already been contacted," the flight attendant replied.

Ralph nodded with satisfaction and was about to say something more when Lin Qiusheng suddenly patted him on the shoulder: "What do you see over there?"

Ralph quickly looked out the window and saw two eagles flying upward in the distance.

"What's our altitude now?" asked Ralph.

"About eight thousand meters." the flight attendant replied.

The flight altitude of the Gulfstream business jet's cruise section is generally more than 10,000 meters. At this time, it is already close to the destination, so it lowers some altitude.

"These two eagles flew so high?" Ralph was surprised.

With the flying ability of an eagle, and if there is suitable airflow, it is not impossible to fly to this height, but it is indeed very rare to fly this high.

"Those are not ordinary eagles, they are coming towards us!" Lin Qiusheng said.

Yes, those two eagles quickly approached the plane from the three o'clock direction, and their speed was abnormally fast.

At this time, the pilot may have noticed the approaching eagle, the sound of the engine became a little louder, and the aircraft began to turn and climb.

Ralph and Lin Qiusheng both gathered at the window and looked out. They soon discovered that there was another abnormality about the two eagles, that is, the two eagles were too big.

"Even the monkey-eating eagle in "Black Cat Sheriff" is more than one level smaller than this one!" Lin Qiusheng couldn't help but think in his heart.

Speaking of which, the monkey-eating eagle in "Black Cat Sheriff" is a shadow of Lin Qiusheng's childhood. In the cartoon, that thing was about the same size as a helicopter, but now these two big eagles flying over are still some distance away.

But both Lin Qiusheng and Ralph could tell that this thing was much bigger than a helicopter, and even looked much bigger than the Gulfstream G650 they were riding in now.

"This is unscientific!" Ralph shouted, "How can there be such a big eagle? This is unscientific!"

Lin Qiusheng looked at Ralph and then at the big eagle outside. Obviously, Ralph did not have the power of a political commissar, so although he shouted "This is unscientific", it did not make the unscientific

The flying eagle fell down.

But at this time, the Gulfstream G650 had already increased its speed considerably, and the distance between the two big eagles and them was no longer close.

"It seems that there is some scientific basis. After all, the aerodynamic shape of the eagle is a bit wrong when it flies to such high subsonic speeds. If it can fly faster than the Gulf Stream, then it is really..." Ralph

He spoke again.

"The appearance of this thing shows that science has changed. This is not an ordinary eagle, this is an extraordinary eagle. How fast it can fly, we'd better not guess. Well, I remember the story of Sinbad

There seems to be something like this."

"Yes, I remembered it as soon as you said it." Ralph said, "In the story of Sinbad's second voyage, this is the condor! The story says that the circumference of the egg of this bird is

There are fifty steps. If you calculate this, the diameter will be sixteen steps. I think Sinbad is exaggerating a bit. These two condors should not be that big. It is said that this kind of bird will capture elephants to feed its chicks.

.Oh my god, why did this kind of thing come out!"

"The djinn have come out, what's so surprising about the appearance of this thing?" Lin Qiusheng said, "Maybe they are the ones that are affecting our normal landing."

While talking, Lin Qiusheng took out his mobile phone and started recording. Research on such extraordinary creatures also requires some similar information.

"If it were earlier, such a video would definitely be considered fake, but now..." Ralph turned to the flight attendant next to him and said, "Please bring my suitcase."

Ralph took out a camera from the suitcase and kept taking pictures of the two condors through the window.

At this time, the Gulfstream G650 was flying very fast and was still climbing. The two condors chased for a while, then lost interest in the target that was running too fast, and turned around and left.

"What is our altitude and speed now? Also, ask the pilot how high he estimated the speed of the two condors just now." Lin Qiusheng asked.

The flight attendant responded and went to the cockpit. After a while, he came back and replied: "We are now at an altitude of 10,000 meters and the speed is Mach 0.9. The pilot estimated that the two condors just now may have flown close to each other.

Mach 0.8 speed."

After this episode, nothing special happened. The plane landed normally at the destination airport. However, the vehicle that was supposed to come here to greet them had not arrived yet.

Ralph turned on his mobile phone to search for local news, and then immediately said to Lin Qiusheng: "As we guessed, the two condors attacked the airport where we originally planned to land, destroying a landing plane and causing a lot of damage.

There were small casualties. There is news that the plane belonged to the Turkish army, and some senior officers of the Turkish military were on the plane."

Lin Qiusheng took Ralph's phone and looked at it, and sighed: "This is such a mess. If we had flown faster and arrived half an hour earlier, I'm afraid we would have been attacked too. Our plane

Its top speed is faster than the Condor, but its acceleration and agility at low speeds are definitely incomparable. If it really collides with it, it will be really dangerous."

"Lin, you are a superhero, can't you deal with it?" Ralph asked.

"If you have already landed on the ground, I have many options, but in the air, I still have some options, but I may not be able to save the plane and you." Lin Qiusheng answered honestly.

"I won't fly next time. I'd rather take a boat and spend more than a week crossing the Atlantic Ocean." Ralph said.

"I think it's better to take a plane when I go back." Lin Qiusheng said, "There are many sea monsters in the story of Sinbad."
