"Tower, tower, this is Zhang Airlines T001, requesting takeoff..."
The super airship's hatch is closed, the hanging ladder has been moved away, and the huge airship airbag begins to inflate.
Inside the airship, millions of staff and reporters stood in the sightseeing area, looking out through the glass, feeling excited and nervous.
"T001, you can take off..."
A message came from the tower.
"Received, T001, ready to take off..."
In the control room, the pilot became busy. Various equipment was started, and the captain looked at various data.
Flying this super airship is easier than an airplane.
"Acquisition..."
Seeing that the height and height reached the predetermined data, the huge cable began to be recovered. The super airship began to slowly rise.
"We started to take off, and the ascent was very smooth. I have a glass of water here. You can see that the water is shaking slightly..."
A CCTV reporter took a glass of water and placed it on the table. During the rise, the water only swayed slightly.
Passengers do not need to wear seat belts and can move around freely.
For such a large airship and such a heavy weight, the slightest movement of the passengers will not affect the airship at all.
The airship rose slowly, not very fast. Everyone was very curious as they watched the airship rise little by little.
At an altitude of 50,000 meters, it takes an hour to rise to the predetermined height. However, everyone is not in a hurry. This is the first time they have seen an altitude of 50,000 meters.
As time passed, the airship got higher and higher, and the scenery became more and more beautiful.
"Drive quickly, everyone, look quickly. Do you see, this is the earth..."
When the airship rises to an altitude of 40,000 meters, everyone will slowly see the interstellar lines. At this height, everyone can see the curvature of the earth, just like looking at the earth from space.
When it reached an altitude of 50,000 meters, everyone gathered in the sightseeing area. It was so spectacular. If I hadn't taken this airship, I would have only seen this kind of scenery on TV.
But now I can see such beautiful scenery with my own eyes and see the curve of the earth with my own eyes. It is really spectacular.
"Oh my God, it's so beautiful. I really want to see it in person."
"When will the real sailing start? I must go and take a ride..."
"Just for this beautiful scenery, I will go and see it no matter how much money I spend..."
"Hahaha, I will see it soon, I must go and see it..."
The route for this trial flight has already been announced. It will depart from a private pilot and fly straight through the airspace of many countries to Lanhai City.
Various countries have already agreed that airships can pass through their airspace. At an altitude of 50,000 meters, this is a completely new route and does not conflict with their civil aviation at all.
Therefore, this airship only needs to report to each country before entering the airspace.
Of course, the private sector has also prepared many plans. If some countries do not agree, then they will go around, which is nothing more than taking more detours.
"The propulsion system starts and moves forward at full speed..."
Arriving at the predetermined airspace, the huge propellers started. The huge airship began to slowly increase speed, and soon reached its maximum speed.
Compared with looking at it from the ground, this speed is actually not felt in the air. In the stratosphere, there are no two clouds, and it is completely empty.
"Now the airship has entered normal flight speed. As you can see, it is very smooth and there is no feeling at all. I have a coin here..."
In the tourist area, a CCTV reporter put a coin on the table. The crust didn't move at all, no different from the ground.
The air in the stratosphere is thin, there is no wind and no clouds, so flying here is too smooth.
"It's comfortable. I just exercised in the gym for a while. I swam in this swimming pool again. You can see this swimming pool. The water here is constantly circulating. There is an advanced water circulation system on this airship, which can ensure that
One hundred percent of the water is recycled..."
"This is a casino, but the amounts played here are relatively small. At the same time, this casino has different statuses in the airspace of different countries..."
"I like to read here, looking at the scenery outside and reading books. It's very elegant..."
The reporter began to experience airship life on the airship, and this life was told to people all over the world through live broadcast.
This is so comfortable, except for super cruise ships, airplanes and high-speed rails can't compare with it. Even super cruise ships can't compare with airships when the weather is bad.
Although the super airship is at an altitude of 50,000 meters, it is safer than any means of transportation. Because at this altitude, there are almost no dangers.
Even if the airship loses power, there will be no danger. The airship is flying, and the trial flight is official. The live broadcast clips that are constantly being broadcast have shocked the world.
Such a big airship, such a large carrying capacity, and such a comfortable way to travel.
The trial voyage officially began, but the storm it caused had just begun.
When the flight trials officially began, the stocks of Boeing, Airbus, and major airlines around the world plummeted.
The two aircraft manufacturers that have suffered the most decline are Boeing and Airbus. The availability of cheap airships will definitely greatly affect the sales of aircraft.
Not only that, but all stocks in shipping, railway transportation, road transportation and other industries have been affected.
The impact is huge. The airship transportation cost is low, the transportation speed is fast, and now the transportation volume is large. There are really too many advantages.
On this day, the global stock market was a wonderful one. Stocks in many countries fell across the board, which made many people gloomy.
At the same time, many companies have also announced the development of super airships, including giants like Boeing and Airbus.
But without super photovoltaic films, even if they send the airship to an altitude of 50,000 meters, it will be of no use. As for using ordinary photovoltaic films, the efficiency is too low and cannot meet the demand at all.
As long as there is no super photovoltaic film, it will be of no use even if they can fly the airship to that height. And super photovoltaic film is not a technological breakthrough that can be achieved overnight.
Even if you get a sample, it's impossible because this technology is too incredible. What's more, the Zhang Group won't let anyone develop it easily.
As soon as that company makes progress, the Zhang Group will secretly cause trouble. It will maintain its technological monopoly as long as it can.
If you really can't monopolize, you can directly engage in price wars to kill your opponents. Now Zhang Group's technology is not leading for a year or two. The technology gap is too big.
The airship flies day and night, and the night view at high altitude is even more beautiful. Everyone is no longer as excited as before. After flying all day and night, at about nine o'clock the next morning, a huge airship appears in the sky above Lanhai City.
.
Seeing the airship, countless people cheered. In Lanhai City, the airship landing site had been built long ago. The huge airship slowly landed on the huge landing site. The reporters and media who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward and there was a burst of violence.
