It was completed on November 1, 2009, and until one month ago, on June 30, 2012, the airport added two more terminals.
Since the completion of the Raccoon City Airport, it has received countless accolades such as "most advanced" and "well-deserved first", and its scale far exceeds all airports in the solar system.
Raccoon City Airport is also the rail transportation hub of Colorado and even the entire North America. When "cargo ships" and "cruise ships" enter the port, they can transport goods and tourists to various parts of the Americas as soon as possible.
View from high altitude.
Dozens of small ships with almost the same appearance and about a hundred meters in length were moored close to the airport in a city-sized airport.
Each terminal has ten covered bridges connecting these ships.
In the sky above the forest on the north side of the airport, there are eight Pioneer-type engineering ships with a length of more than 300 meters, and two engineering ships that are similar in appearance to the Pioneer-type, but are 100 meters longer than the Pioneer-type.
These ten large ships kept a distance of less than a hundred meters from each other, lined up, and hovered in mid-air a hundred meters above the ground.
It is a civilian transport boat that is two times larger than the Yugull but does not have any weapons pendants. It travels between the airport and ten large ships.
If you look at it from a distance, you will feel that although there are many transport boats and they are densely packed, they all have their own channels and transport or unload passengers and cargo in an orderly manner.
The functions and responsibilities of the transport boat are similar to the shuttle bus at the airport.
For the animals living in the forest north of the airport, they are almost always blocked from the sky, and the sun can only get sufficient light in the early morning and evening.
But for passengers arriving at the airport for the first time, it is a rare spectacle.
Passengers couldn't help but take out their mobile phones to take photos, and then marked the location and posted it on social networking sites.
However, many residents living nearby have become accustomed to the behemoths parked here when they drive or take the maglev train passing by the airport.
This is especially true for people who have visited the airport many times.
Among them were Isaac and a group of Umbrella workers.
Among the ten engineering ships hovering above the forest in the north, eight Pioneer models are rented by the company for "official organizations" to explore, mine and colonize the solar system.
The other two ships are Umbrella's own Pioneer II engineering ships equipped with jump engines.
Of course, in order to speed up human exploration and construction in the solar system, the Pioneer I leased out to "official organizations" is also equipped with a jump engine.
Those ships that can be parked in the airport do not have the ability to jump, and are only "ordinary" flights between the earth and the moon.
After all, on the far side of the moon, the mining base jointly built by the company in charge of Queen Bai and the governments of many countries, the predecessor of the "official organization", after nearly ten years of development, is no longer as simple as a base, but a colony with a population of nearly nine million.
You must know that the date Umbrella announced its nuclear fusion technology, as well as its Pioneer I engineering ship and other products, was January 1, 2003.
From the announcement of the construction of the mining base in 2003 to today, July 30, 2012, more than nine years have passed.
The governments of many countries began to promulgate many colonial policies in mid-2007, providing benefits and even bonuses to encourage people to move their families and participate in the construction of the colony.
At the same time, in order to cope with the colonial wave, various multiple-child policies were also promulgated.
Although netizens are always joking and posting jokes such as "I don't dare to have children" and "I can't afford to have children", the population growth is indeed significant.
As of the census in early 2012, the total global population, including the existing colonial population, was approximately 7.41336 billion.
at this time.
The bus carrying Isaac and others left the highway, used the fast lane to enter the airport, and finally arrived at Umbrella's dedicated parking area.
Isaac, who was sitting on the right side of the carriage, looked out through the single-sided window and saw a large number of employee buses belonging to Umbrella.
The bus stopped.
"Hoo~!" A co-worker whistled, stood up, took down his suitcase and said to everyone: "It's a wonderful working day again, everyone, cheer up!"
"That's what I'm saying, you have to treat me to drinks after work today," another worker joked.
"I'll just ask you, let's go!"
"Hahaha! So refreshing!"
A group of people were talking and laughing, and Isaac also took off his suitcase and followed his co-workers out of the bus.
Next, they left the parking area with colleagues from other departments of the company, passed the peripheral security check, and walked into the Area A lobby of the airport.
Just walked in…
"Passengers taking flight UM076, please note that the check-in formalities for this flight will be closed at 10:10. Passengers who have not gone through the formalities for this flight, please go to counter 27 as soon as possible. Thank you."
“Dear travelers, please note…”
Isaac then heard various reminders coming from the hall broadcast.
In addition to the radio reminder, the hall in Area A was full of people, with people of different identities and countries gathered here.
A man in a suit, after hearing the announcement, quickly ran towards counter No. 27 with a paper cup of coffee in his left hand and a brown briefcase in his right hand.
There was also a family of three who had completed the formalities and checked their luggage, wearing floral shirts and shorts, walking leisurely through the crowd.
Apart from these civilians, the ones that Isaac should take a closer look at are the "soldiers" who cooperate with the security personnel at the entrance and exit to maintain order.
I saw three heavily armed soldiers standing at the security checkpoint, looking around at the crowd expressionlessly.
The soldiers wear dark green combat uniforms, hold MA series rifles, and wear titanium alloy armor to protect key parts. The helmet also has a holographic display on the right eye.
The first impression these three soldiers gave Isaac was that they looked like the armed security guards in their company a few years ago.
However, there is a United Nations-like emblem engraved on the left shoulder plate, which represents the identity of these three soldiers. They are not Umbrella's security guards, but the UNSC Army.
Because the badge is also engraved with a series of letters, which is United Nations Space Command (United Nations Space Command), or UNSC for short.
The "official organization" currently cooperating with Umbrella is the United Earth Government (UEG), or UEG for short.
The predecessor of UEG is the United Nations, which is composed of governments from all over the world. The UNSC, which is responsible for military affairs, accepts the jurisdiction of UEG.
Governments of various countries officially announced the establishment of UEG and UNSC at the United Nations General Assembly held on October 1, 2008.
Even though the governments of various countries had made many explicit statements and advanced preparations and arrangements before the conference was held, the world was still plunged into great changes. Fortunately, the storm was quickly suppressed.
As an employee, Isaac knew that UEG and UNSC were quickly on the right track in all aspects, and they were inseparable from Umbrella.
In addition, four years have passed, and the vast majority of people around the world have gradually adapted to life with UEG and UNSC.
