1737 Another One Found!
Hooray! Hooray!
They did it!
They landed safely!
The entire Capital city was going crazy, with some even offering discounted prices because of the safe Landing.
Hip-Hip-Hip... Hooray!
Couples who were hesitating on taking the big step, suddenly hugged and kissed romantically, feeling so thrilled to witness such a sight with the person beside them.
Children had twinkling eyes filled with passion for the future swearing to one day grace the skies like the pilots shown on the screen.
Yes. It wasn't just the tires that were on display, but live footage of the pilots, who made <okay> and <thumbs-up> signs to the cameras.
The cameras were at an angle that doesn't show the complicated buttons in the cockpit, in my showing the many pilots' side view faces from neck up.
"Ahhhh! That's my daughter! That's my little girl!"
"Son! Son! That's my son! My son is one of the first people to make history and touch the skies!"
"Woooooooo~... I just want to say, as the only second child in our family, I inherited all my father's raising characteristics. Just look at how heroic my father looks on TV. Ladies... ladies.. no pushing. I will be fair when deciding who to go out with on a date, so please sing PUSH."
Carefully hugging Lucy, Landon helped her slowly ease into her seat, before jogging his mother, Lucius, Kora and many others.
"Hahahahahaha~... We did it, your majesty! Today, we made history!"
Whether it was Overseer Tim and the others, everyone was full of smiles, waiting for the day they too will hop aboard these planes for themselves.
You don't know how they felt when seeing the tires screech on the runway grounds, as though going to break off or crash.
Phew~
Many secretly wiped their sweat, thankful nothing had happened especially on live TV.
Landon was amused by their secret actions.
If they felt this way when watching the footage, then how would they feel when sitting on the plane itself, looking outside the window and watching the wheels touch the ground?
Trust me, everyone on board would feel the jerk.
So if their hearts were already running thin now then how will they handle it when on board?
Landon chuckled, looking forward to the day public planes would fly.
For now, it was indeed worth it to celebrate today's success, but the show isn't over just yet.
Landon still hadn't forgotten his purpose for today's launch.
Feeling that he has given everyone enough time to be merry, he signaled the host to get on with the show.
"Hooray, for mankind. Hooray for mankind." The host examined clapping alongside the regroup while taking his stance at the forefront.
"They say a picture says a thousand words. Today, everyone has witnessed the speed and power behind these aircrafts."
Many, including Timothy, nodded heavily, still shocked by what they witnessed.
It was times like these that they were thankful they were Baymards and not foes.
Or else who can survive their wrath at this point?
Sometimes strong soldiers, armory and troops did not necessarily mean victory.
The time it takes to regroup and call for reinforcements would make a whole lot of difference in a war.
Hell!
With the speed they just saw these aircrafts fly, they can be sure these Baymardians would be able to bring in cavalry and even more when they realize any slight disadvantages at their end.
In that case, even if they lose more soldiers than the enemy after the war has ended, at least they still ended up victorious.
Today's show wasn't just for the Baymardians but for the allies and potential enemies hidden in the dark.
Baymard was indirectly saying that before you betray or come at them, think twice.
They had the technology and were ready to unleash hell on them should they ever dare cross the line.
Terrible!
Many clapped and gave each other tactful stares with only one conclusion coming to mind -- Baymard must never be provoked.
---
"Ladies and gentlemen. The true motive behind cargo Planes is transportation. Now, you can send your goods or letters via air travel to those living close to regions around the Capital city! No longer will you have to send certain goods to your empire's Capital via ship? And guess what? The time of arrival Imus fairly fast too."
Instantly, the screen changed showing travel times between Baymard and every Pyno empire.
A direct flight between;
▪Baymard to Arcadina: 6 hours, 24 minutes in summer. Can vary depending on weather conditions.
▪Baymard to Carona: 9 hours, 47 minutes.
▪Baymard to Deiferus: 7 hours, 8 minutes
▪Baymard to Yodan: 15 hrs, 13 minutes.
▪Baymard to Terique: 15 hrs 5 minutes.
-----
That was the estimated flight time during summer.
Seeing the short time intervals, many widened their eyes in disbelief.
You have to know that even from Baymard to Carona's Coastal city, is 2~3 days via Baymardians ship, before they pack things up, load them and send them traveling for months to the Capital.
But with Cargo planes, in just under 10 years their goods will arrive. This also made things good, and easier for those sending letters.
You have to know that back in modern times one of the greatest uses of Cargo planes is FedEx deliveries.
You can get the parcel you order online fast, and even letters and government documents too because most items relied on fast air travel for delivery.
If it's by ship, it will truly be delayed way longer than you expect
The concept of Cargo planes opens up many doors for merchants, who can now get the latest Baymardian clothes shipped faster to the capital than before.
Cargo planes carry a majority of goods that need to be moved, even coffins and the dead.
Of course, there was a list of prohibited items that can only be shipped via sea.
Again they stress on allowing heavier and cumbersome giant crates to get shipped via sea.
Well, when everyone is leaving today, they can pick the list up on their way home.
The list will also get posted in tomorrow's newspapers, and even the TVs, online sites, radios and other news outlets will touch on it a little.
Great!
Many people already fell in love with these cargo planes.
And just like that, the host concluded his thoughts, allowing everyone to head to the many airport eateries and take orders whatever they liked.
Today, the event of course had free food.
How can it not?
Everyone sat in groups, with some even carrying their to-go food at hand and touring the airport for the first time.
Success!
It was a great success!
(^w^)

Landon smiled from molar to molar, not knowing he wasn't the only one with celebratory news.
Far, far, away, several people rushed to the palace with arrogant smiles on their places and weapons at their sides.
"Your majesty! Your majesty! We know who the 2nd Key is!"
