Chapter 233: Airliner

"It's really unfortunate. The perpetrator of the traffic accident must be severely punished!" When Himmler was hit and killed, Cyric was sitting in his car and said to Graf beside him: "Female driver, Road killer, the empire’s traffic laws must be perfected. After a strict examination and a driver’s license, the driver can drive on the road."

Himmler was hit and killed by a female driver. The female driver used the accelerator as a brake and pushed Himmler to the wall. The wall was smashed! This Beetle was only bumper deformed. It seems that this national car of Dr. Porsche is quite strong!

At that time, Himmler's adjutant was planning to come forward to rescue him, and as a result, he was hit and seriously injured!

At the same time, this accident also exposed the imperial deficiencies in traffic management. With the popularization of national cars, a driving school must be established. After passing the training, you must have an exam before you can drive on the road. Be wary of road killers, especially women. driver!

Cyric sighed, and Graf on the side said in agreement: "Yes, you must be wary of female drivers, it's terrible!"

The two smiled at each other, and the car continued to drive forward. Soon, I came to a newly opened company, Junker-Seus Aircraft Company.

This is the Junker Company and the Seuss Company, each holding 50% of the shares, invested capital, and opened a new aircraft company. The company's project is to produce long-distance intercontinental large passenger aircraft!

At first, a few years ago, Cyric’s trip to the United States successfully touched the young aviator Howard. Howard’s interest shifted from the racing plane and began to study its large passenger aircraft seriously.

After that, Seuss invested in Germany and adopted a joint approach with German aircraft companies. Howard fell in love with Junker Aircraft Company, which has experience in the production and design of transport aircraft.

And now, their project is the intercontinental airliner that crosses the ocean, named Atlantic One.

This kind of airliner is designed to cross the ocean!

Before leaving for Spain, Cyric heard that this kind of aircraft had already made its first flight, but Cyric did not have time at the time, and now, taking a break from his busy schedule, Cyric decided to check it out. I heard that it was about to complete. Finalized, about to enter the production stage!

"Cyric, it's nice to meet you!" At the door of the factory and learning of Cyric's arrival, the young adventurer Howard was already waiting there enthusiastically.

As a rich second-generation, Howard has never been worried, his face is always cheerful, and now, the success of his career makes Howard smile all day.

"Hello, General Cyric, I am Ebas." Another person who came to greet him was Ebas, the chief designer of Junker, who also participated in the development of this passenger plane.

"Go, let's see the passenger plane." Cyric said.

Airplane companies all have runways, so that when the aircraft is built, it can take off to where it should go. Now, on the runway of this newly established company, a large passenger plane is under the sun. sparkling with light.

This is a behemoth!

Seeing this aircraft, Cyric remembered the historical B-29, which was almost the same size as this aircraft!

In fact, although the B-29 didn't come into play until the middle of World War II, it has actually been developed since 34 years, and now, these technologies are generally mature.

The upper single wing, the first three-point landing gear, and the wide straight wing are equipped with four engines.

"Our current project can be finalized, thanks to the engines provided by these BMW companies!" Howard said.

Any aircraft needs advanced engines. During the test flight of the B-29, engine fires frequently appeared, or it was because the engine failed to shut down.

Now, BMW’s air-cooled engine has been used on the FW190, and at the same time, it is also provided to Howard’s racing aircraft and now large passenger aircraft.

"Now, each of these engines can stably provide 1,800 horsepower, which is enough to allow our passenger aircraft to cruise at an altitude of 10,000 meters at a speed of 500 kilometers per hour." Howard proudly said: "Now, the first one from the United States to The German route is preparing to open up."

Howard is a big money owner. When Cyric mentioned BMW’s 1500-horsepower air-cooled engine, Howard was very interested and helped a large amount of money. These funds eventually matured the engine and gave the FW190 equipment. At the same time, the continued development of the follow-up model has been increased to 1,800 horsepower.

Ten thousand meters high in the sky? and many more! Cyric suddenly thought of something: "With this engine, the altitude problem has been solved?"

Piston engines all need to inhale air to burn. At high altitudes, the air is thin. If you want to inhale enough air, you need a supercharger. However, Germany is limited by its low fuel grade and lack of heat-resistant alloys. The advanced two-stage supercharger was developed, so the high-altitude performance of the German fighter plane was not good, and by the end of World War II, it was inevitably out of date.

But now, there are already passenger planes that can fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters. This shows that the problem of the turbocharger has been solved?

Ebas nodded: "Yes, our engine has been equipped with an advanced two-stage supercharger. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has passed engineers dug from Rolls-Royce, plus the American side. With the advanced alloys provided, we have solved the problem of superchargers. Compared with the superchargers of airplanes, we have encountered real problems in terms of cabin supercharging."

Why fly at an altitude of 10,000 meters? The thin air at high altitude means that the resistance is small, fuel can be saved, and a longer range can be achieved. For civil aviation aircraft, it means cost reduction, and for bombers, it means that it is more difficult to intercept!

Ebas knew that once there was a war, this passenger plane would be transformed into a bomber at any time, and even in the process of developing this passenger plane, they had already begun to prepare for the transformation of transport planes and bombers.

For a flight at an altitude of 10,000 meters, cabin pressurization is a big problem.

If you look at the World War II data of later generations, you can see that when the plane flies to a certain altitude, the pilot has to use an oxygen mask. It is because the cockpit is not pressurized and the oxygen is insufficient. If the oxygen mask is not used, it will be due to lack at any time Oxygen and faint.

Fighter and bomber pilots can still accept it. If every passenger of a passenger plane is allowed to use an oxygen mask, everyone is like a pig's mouth. This kind of passenger plane is rarely used!
