Chapter 1412 - A Stressed Out Man
~Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap~
Landon drummed his fingers on his desk severally, thinking of all he had to put in place fast.
When it came to the airplane seats, those making them had to make the armrest region have microphone plugs and b.u.t.tons to lower the seats for those needed to relax a bit.
But of course when it comes to the TVs, like he had planned earlier, the planes will have Tvs stationed at various intervals across the plane.
And the rows and columns of people at those particular sections would have to plug in their microphones to listen in to whatever was showing.
Back in the early 90s, Tvs on airlines were often more or less like so, with various groups sharing one TV suspended above.
Of course, they will have no control over what"s showing.
Nonetheless, everything will be family-friendly, something that all ages would enjoy.
Only if the staff noticed that there were no children around the age of 14 within the section would they be allowed to show something a bit mature.
In the end, only Tv viewings Business and Economy cla.s.s would have these settings.
As for First-cla.s.s customers… heh… they would have their own personal Tvs instead.
Of course, though there were 3 Main airplane cla.s.ses, each cla.s.s had sub-cla.s.ses too.
There was Economy, Premium economy, Business cla.s.s, Couch and all the rest.
In short, the higher one climbed, the more s.p.a.cious and luxurious their seating arrangement would be.
Some airplanes would have stairways leading to an upper floor, while others would be small with no business or even first-cla.s.s options.
For now, Landon wasn"t thinking of going over the top.
He wanted to make just the right amount of planes that could fly according to schedule to and fro any of the empires within the many hours of the day.
During a day, one could have more than 15 planes take off to various empires and roughly the same land back on ground floor.
Some flights were just 30~45 minutes, while others were 8 hours, depending on the takeoff location.
All in all, Landon had to estimate and create a backup batch for when some aircraft were under maintenance.
These airplanes would be landing and taking off from the Pyno Capital cities.
This was the only location for now.
So you best believe that people will hurry over as fast as they can to hop aboard and fly away.
Those closer to the coastal cities would prefer the s.h.i.+ps.
But for those who were 3 months away from the sh.o.r.es but only 1 month away from the Capital, which direction would you think they would move towards?
Of course, the downside is that if they were using planes, they wouldn"t be allowed to transport the same amount of Items they did when using the cruise s.h.i.+ps.
Flight travel was more of a convenience for those traveling light, wanting to reach their destination in a matter of hours.
That said, because there would only be one airport in each empire, one could imagine how full the planes would be.
If his guess was correct, almost all planes would be fully booked.
d.a.m.n!
In the end, there was still a lot to do before the system"s deadline!
.
Very quickly, Landon took out a few uneased exercise books, making his plans and noting all major aspects he had to deal with before the official launch date.
As he said, from September to December, he would be focused on pa.s.sing on his knowledge to the teams he selected.
It should be noted that during this time, the first few parts should"ve been completed.
And during this period, they should"ve also built pilot simulator rooms.
While they had been busy understanding these aspects, the selected pilots should"ve had multiple tests, as well as cla.s.sroom training too.
That"s right.
Landon planned to also use the months of September to December to teach the pilots theoretical knowledge first.
And come January, they would first train using the built simulators.
By the end of the month, they would have another set of aviation tests.
Those who made it would then continue to phase 2, piloting the various prototypes.
Be it a helicopter or commercial aircraft; these pilots would train till March, having multiple tests in between their training periods.
Landon was very particular about this.
Of course, while the pilots did their thing, those putting the real planes should also be working their hardest too.
But this wasn"t all.
.
First, he had to deal with the matter of the airports.
This summer, he had to let the other empires start choosing empty estates and ma.s.sive terrains for their airports.
The system had allowed him to create Sundays in these regions.
Meaning he would have to send a construction team over there A.S.A.P.
He wanted the runways laid out before Winter.
If they can start this July, that would be great!!
And to speed things up, he also planned to send letters to the other monarchs, which should get to them 2 weeks from now.
So they can easily pick locations swiftly.
As for the International Baymardian Airport, come January, construction should be done and over with.
And even if it got delayed a bit by the weather, it should be at most done by March.
In the meantime, from September till the very last opening date, all airport teams had to get trained... Especially the air hostesses.
Those working within the airport in the check-in and checkout stations would more or less know what to do since Baymard already had a Coastal port and Landport.
Security staff, cleaners, runway workers, official on-site maintenance staff, and many other workers would have to recruit.
April of next year.
Now that Landon thought about it... The time seemed too short.
But what could he do?
What made him weep was that all this stress came from his main mission alone.
As for his many side-missions, they were another matter altogether!
