Riding in a transport plane was not very comfortable.
Especially when it turned.
An airplane did not turn like a vehicle traveling on a road. When the steering wheel turned, the two guide wheels in front would turn as well, naturally guiding the vehicle through a smooth curve.
Airplanes could not do that.
The rudder on the tail could only make slight adjustments at small angles. It could not make the plane turn at a sharp angle in midair, so whenever the plane needed to turn, it had to tilt.
The greater the turning angle, the more it had to bank. At the same time, it had to pull upward, and only then could the plane make a sharp turn in the air.
During this process, the people inside the cabin would suffer terribly. The safety ropes and seat belts could ensure they would not go flying around the cabin, but they could not stop the turbulence or the nauseating sensation of the plane rolling over.
A little after one in the morning, large numbers of transport planes began taking off. There were some things the officers had not told the soldiers here.
Not all the airborne troops would be able to reach the designated area. The flight routes had been chosen to be as safe as possible, but many times, making preparations did not mean those preparations would be useful! As for whether fighter planes would attack...
There definitely would be.
They were entering the mainland from the coast, and would inevitably alert the cities or patrols below. Once the Air Raid Alert was sounded, the entire Peng Joe Empire would know that a group of bomber formations was moving toward the interior of the mainland.
By then, large numbers of fighter planes would certainly take off to intercept
