"It's really unfortunate. We must severely punish the perpetrators of traffic accidents!" When he got the news that Himmler was hit and killed, he was sitting in his car. He said to Graf: "female driver, road killer, the traffic regulations of the Empire must be improved. Only after strict examination and issuance of driver's license can the driver drive on the road."

Himmler was killed by a female driver who used the accelerator as a brake and pushed Himmler against the wall. The wall was smashed! This beetle is just a deformed bumper. It seems that Dr. Porsche's national car is quite strong!

At that time, Himmler's adjutant was going to come forward to save him. As a result, he was also seriously injured!

At the same time, the accident also exposed the lack of traffic management in the Empire. With the popularity of national cars, there must be a driving school. Only after passing the training and examination can we drive on the road and be vigilant against road killers, especially female drivers!

Hilrick sighed, and Graf echoed, "yes, we must be vigilant against female drivers. It's terrible!"

They looked at each other and smiled. The car continued to drive forward. Soon, he came to a new company, Junker Hughes Aircraft Company.

This is a new aircraft company established by Juncker company and Hughes company, with 50% shares held by both sides and capital invested. The company's project is to produce long-distance transcontinental airliners!

At first, a few years ago, during his trip to the United States, Shrek successfully persuaded Howard, a young aviator. Howard's interest shifted from the racing plane and began to seriously study his large passenger plane.

After that, Hughes invested in Germany and adopted the joint method with German aircraft companies. Howard fell in love with Junker aircraft company, which has experience in the production and design of transport aircraft.

Now, their project is the intercontinental airliner across the ocean, which is named Atlantic No. 1 airliner.

This kind of airliner is designed to cross the ocean!

Before leaving for Spain, xierik heard that this aircraft had made its first flight, but xierik didn't have time at that time. Now, xierik decided to take a look. I heard that it was about to be finalized and was about to enter the production stage!

"Nice to meet you, Shrek!" At the gate of the factory, the young adventurer Howard was already waiting there with great interest when he learned of the arrival of Shrek.

As a rich second generation, Howard has never been worried and his face is always happy. Now, with the success of his career, Howard is smiling all day.

"Hello, general Shrek. This is Abbas." Another person who came to welcome was EBAS, the chief designer of Junker company, who also participated in the research and development of the aircraft.

"Let's go and see the plane." Said Shrek.

Aircraft companies all have runways, so that when the aircraft is manufactured, they can take off directly to the place they should go. Now, on the runway of this newly established company, a large passenger plane is glittering in the sun.

This is a behemoth!

Seeing this plane, Shrek remembered the historical B-29, which was almost the size of this plane!

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

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

"The finalization of our current project depends entirely on the engines provided by BMW!" Howard said.

Any aircraft needs an advanced engine. During the test flight of the B-29, there are frequent engine fires, or because the engine fails to pass the test.

Now, BMW's air-cooled engine has been used in fw190. At the same time, it has also been provided to Howard's racing aircraft and now large passenger aircraft.

"Now, each of these engines can stably provide 1800 horsepower, which is enough for our airliner to cruise at an altitude of 10000 meters and a speed of 500 kilometers per hour." Howard proudly said, "now, the first route from the United States to Germany is ready to be opened."

Howard is a big financier. When hilrick mentioned the 1500 HP air-cooled engine of BMW, Howard was very interested and helped a lot of money. These funds finally matured the engine and equipped the fw190. At the same time, the follow-up model that continues to develop has been increased to 1800 HP.

Ten thousand meters high? wait! Hilrick suddenly thought of something: "our engine has solved the problem of high altitude?"

Piston engines need to inhale air to burn. At high altitude, the air is thin. If you want to inhale enough air, you need a supercharger. However, Germany, limited by the low fuel grade and the lack of heat-resistant alloy, has not developed an advanced secondary supercharger. Therefore, the high-altitude performance of German fighters is not good. By the end of World War II, It will inevitably fall behind.

But now, there are airliners that can fly to an altitude of 10000 meters, which shows that the problem of supercharger has been solved?

Abbas nodded: "yes, our engine has been equipped with advanced secondary supercharger. Through the engineers dug from Rolls Royce and the advanced alloy provided by the United States, we have solved the problem of supercharger. Compared with the supercharger of aircraft, we have encountered a real problem in cabin pressurization."

Why fly at an altitude of 10000 meters? The thin air at high altitude means that the resistance is small, which can save fuel and reach a longer range. For civil aircraft, it means that the cost is reduced, while for bombers, it means that it is more difficult to be intercepted!

Abbas knew that once the war broke out, the airliner would be transformed into a bomber at any time. Even in the process of developing the airliner, they had begun to prepare for the deformation of transport aircraft and bombers.

For flights at an altitude of 10000 meters, cabin pressurization is a big problem.

If you look at the later World War II data, you can see that when the plane flies to a certain altitude, the pilot has to use an oxygen mask, because the cabin is not pressurized and the oxygen is not enough. If you don't use an oxygen mask, you will faint due to lack of oxygen at any time.

Fighter and bomber pilots can accept it. If every passenger of an airliner uses an oxygen mask, everyone is the same as a pig's mouth. Few people take this airliner!
