Chapter: 2812
He hurriedly added: "The anti-government forces' current air defense weapons are American-made Stinger anti-aircraft missiles. These missiles have an effective range of around 4,000 meters, so the plane's flight height will definitely need to be maintained above 4,000 meters. That means you'll need to jump from a height of over 4,000 meters, which is a very high difficulty!"
Ye Chen asked: "What are the main difficulties in jumping from a height of 4,000 meters?"
Chen Zehuai explained: "Firstly, it's necessary to adapt to the high-altitude air pressure and low temperature. This really tests a parachutist's physical quality."
Ye Chen nodded: "I believe I have no problem with this point. What about others?"
Chen Zehuai continued: "In addition to that, it's also crucial to maintain your posture in mid-air. You need to ensure your descent speed is moderate and not too slow or too fast. This requires you to rationally use your body to adjust air resistance and your posture."
Ye Chen nodded again: "That sounds like it shouldn't be a big deal. Is there anything else?"
Chen Zehuai said: "There's also the control of opening the parachute at the right time, as well as controlling the descent after opening the parachute. When you jump from an altitude of over 4,000 meters, the air flow is unstable. You need to continuously adjust your direction to ensure a precise landing at the designated location. If you lose control, you may deviate several kilometers or even dozens of kilometers."
Chen Zehuai continued: "Oh, and there's also the issue of landing posture. Although it looks like people jumping from a parachute don't land quickly in normal times, actually, the descent speed is still very high at that moment. This requires the parachutist to make adjustments beforehand. If you don't control it well, your legs may break or suffer fractures."
Ye Chen heard this and couldn't help but ask: "I jumped from 10-15 meters above a helicopter last time without any problems. You're saying this is nothing for me?"
Chen Zehuai thought back to Ye Chen's performance with Su Jun and Du Haiqing before, thinking that Ye Chen's physical condition was completely different from ordinary people. He felt a bit more at ease in his heart.
Then he took a deep breath and continued: "Young master, since it's like this, I think you should only pay attention to two issues - direction control and opening the parachute at the right time. I'll contact our interface person on the Lebanese side to prepare an equipment that can display air pressure, altitude, and GPS location for you. When the time comes, you can judge the timing of jumping based on real-time data and then adjust your direction in real-time according to the GPS."
Ye Chen nodded: "Okay, let them arrange a parachute instructor to follow me up and explain how to open the parachute and control direction during the flight!"
After experiencing over four hours of flying, Ye Chen's plane finally landed at Beirut International Airport.
At this moment, it was afternoon in Beirut, with temperatures reaching around 30 degrees Celsius.
The sky was cloudy, and the air was slightly humid, as if a big rain had been holding back for a long time but hadn't fallen yet.
After landing, Ye Chen's plane slid directly into a large hangar. At this moment, there was still a transport plane with four turbofan engines parked inside the hangar, and a group of maintenance personnel were conducting a detailed inspection around it.
The plane came to a stop, the boarding stairs connected, and the flight crew opened the cabin door. Ye Chen walked out of the cabin together with Chen Zehuai.
At this moment, an elderly man with a Chinese face was standing respectfully at the bottom of the stairs, waiting for Ye Chen and Chen Zehuai to come down. He hurriedly took a step forward, bowing politely and saying: "Young master, welcome to Beirut!"
After sizing up the other person, Ye Chen discovered that this individual was around the same age as Chen Zehuai, in their early thirties. His Mandarin was very standard, and he didn't seem like someone who had been living abroad for a long time.
So, he decided to ask: "Are you related to the Yang family?"
The other person hastened to say: "Yes, young master! I am the representative of the Yang family in the Middle East. My name is Han Guangyao, and your grandfather specifically sent me here from Saudi Arabia to help you smooth out relations and provide any assistance I can offer."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and asked him: "What's the situation like in Syria?"
Han Guangyao explained: "The opposition in Syria is currently at an impasse with the US embassy. This time, the US embassy is being very stubborn and has no intention of compromising. So, I estimate that they will lose their patience soon."
Ye Chen asked again: "Is the US embassy not prepared to intervene in this matter at all, or are there other behind-the-scenes plans?"
Han Guangyao sighed: "As it stands now, they are not prepared to intervene at all. The main reason is because they spent a lot of effort and resources in Syria a few years ago but didn't get any good results. Now that they're withdrawing their troops, they don't want to be dragged back into the mess again." JrNovels.com
