Shortly before 1:00 p.m., the carrying Jin and the others was over the airfield in Leuthart.
The idea was to get a better view of < from the sky.
In some cases, you can fly alongside ...... or even side by side.
"Father, I see it."
"Oh."
I think I see a dot in the eastern sky, and then it starts to get bigger and bigger.
Now that the is flying toward us, it seems to be approaching us at twice the relative speed, and at a very high rate of speed.
In reality, <> is flying at 400 km/h and <> at 200 km/h, which means the relative speed is 600 km/h. In reality, < is 400 km/h and <> is 200 km/h.
There is no other aircraft that can fly at such a high speed except for the Horai Islanders.
Before passing each other, the <> changes direction and starts flying in the same direction as the <>.
A few seconds later, the <> is alongside the <>. The speed is reduced to 200 km/h and they are flying side by side at about the same speed.
"Wow, that's the <> Jin-sama built! It's a rocket plane, so it doesn't have an air intake."
"The main wings are small. Is it for high speed?
"It's amazing that something made of ...... metal can fly."
Rubina and Goh expressed their engineer-like impressions, while Merce expressed his honest impression.
Daikie and Cocona looked at them silently.
And Erza said,
"Brother Jin, are you sure you can handle it?"
She asked.
"What? Jin-sama, is that detuned?"
Yes, it is. It is a detuned aircraft, or rather, a popular type of aircraft.
Jin answered Rubina's question.
<, Rubina, Goh, Daikie and Cocona have no problem talking about the true .
The same goes for Mertze. They already know how out of the ordinary Jin is.
"A true fully equipped aircraft would exceed the speed of sound by a comfortable margin. It's probably the fastest winged plane in the world at the moment."
"Great!"
But there's one big problem with that.
What's that?
...... humans can't fly it.
No, they can't!
"No!" "Yes, you're right. It's a golem or an automaton that can't withstand the G-forces of flight.
At full power launch, it would be more than 5 G's. If you do a somersault (loop) at supersonic speed, the acceleration may exceed 20 G. Even if you wear a G-resistant suit, you will not be able to withstand the G-force.
It was thought that even with a G-resistant suit, a human could not withstand such an acceleration.
In fact, the same can be said of the <>.
However, the <> that uses wind magic does not have the same instantaneous force as the < that uses explosive magic, so it is easier to handle, and its maximum acceleration is only about 10G.
"So the flaw is in an unexpected place."
"That's right."
The biggest flaw is that humans cannot handle it.
Unless, of course, the G-forces applied to the body are reduced by means of a force field generator or gravity magic, but that would make it unsuitable for general use.
"That's why we're releasing this detuned version to the public."
Hope, a veteran pilot, brings the Swallow closer to the runway.
She slows down as much as she can and makes a spectacular landing.
"At that speed, doesn't it take a while to come to a stop?"
"Yes. That's why there are brakes.
"What?"
Well, just watch and see."
Goh and Rubina did as Jin told them and stared at the runway below.
"Ah!"
<
This caused the aircraft to slow down and after about 400 meters of runway run, <> came to a standstill.
Finally, Jin installed the <>.
This gimmick was only possible because the internal structure of <> is simpler than that of modern earth planes.
"We can apply the brakes at about 1.5G."
1.5G...... acceleration of about 15 meters per second can bring a vehicle to a stop in 3.7 seconds at a speed of 2.00 kilometers per hour. 00 kilometers per hour in 3.7 seconds.
In that case, the distance traveled would be less than 103 meters, which would be enough for a landing on a narrow runway.
"The aircraft is light, though."
"I see, I'm learning a lot."
"That's very informative!"
Naturally, it is Goh and Rubina who are most pleased with this <.
* * * *
Later, the <> also landed.
Goh and Rubina rushed to the <>. On their backs, Jin said,
"Be careful around the jet's mouth, it's hot!
Jin called out to them.
Jin then heads for the control room with Daikie. <.
At the airport in Leusert, the current capital of the Shoro Empire, it is convenient to register your appearance and family crest to simplify the process of confirming your affiliation and purpose when you arrive.
<, but he still decided to register.
"Yes, you belong to Jin Nido and the Nido family <>, I understand.
The staff at the control building were familiar with Jin since they visited the building frequently, and the registration was completed smoothly.
While Jin was going through the procedures, Goh and Rubina were asking questions to Hope, the pilot.
What is the maximum speed?
What is the limit of ascent?
Are there any habits of maneuvering?
How agile and maneuverable is it?
And so on.
Hope answered politely what she could, but when Jin returned after completing the formalities,
I think it would be best if you ask the master.
Then he handed over the phone to the next person.
"Master Jin..."
"Master Jin!"
"All right, all right, all right."
I smiled and gave them a variety of explanations to their eagerness.
