When Charlie boarded the plane, Mr. Chester pointed to one of the men who
was checking the parachute bag and said,
“Master, this is Vasily from Russia. He was a paratrooper instructor who was a
professional high-altitude parachuter for twenty years. The experience is very
rich.”
The Russian man called Vasily stood up, saluted Charlie, and said: “Hello, Mr.
Wade! This time I will temporarily act as your skydiving instructor. If you feel
unsure, I can take you to jump at that time.”
Charlie nodded and asked, “If I jump myself, what should I pay attention to?”
Vasili explained: “When we are approaching the destination, I will choose the
most suitable skydiving location based on the altitude, airflow, and wind
speed around the destination. If you pick it yourself, you must be there where
you want to land. When I say jump, you have to jump out decisively.”
After finishing talking, he handed Charlie a professional watch and introduced:
“Mr. Wade, this watch can monitor your altitude, temperature, body
temperature, heart rate, and GPS position in real-time. After you parachute,

limbs to keep the proper direction. Then I will use your GPS coordinates to
remind you in real-time how to control your limbs and then control the
direction by radio, so as to ensure that your landing point does not yaw as
much as possible.”
“In addition, I have set the umbrella opening reminder in this watch. If you
reach the predetermined height of the umbrella opening, the watch will emit
vibration and sound prompts. Then you can directly pull the main umbrella
switch on the umbrella bag. This will turn on the parachute.”
Charlie took the watch and put it on his wrist. Vasily picked up a prepared parachute bag, pointed to a pull ring at
the bottom, and introduced: “This is the cable for opening the umbrella. After the given altitude, you must pull
out the parachute within 20 seconds, otherwise, it may be life- threatening.”
After that, he pointed to a switch on the right side of the parachute backpack and introduced: “This is for
parachute cutting. If your parachute is not turned on or becomes entangled in the air after turning on, you can
use this to release the parachute, and then The one on your left is the switch for the spare umbrella. After
cutting the umbrella, you must turn on the spare umbrella immediately.”
Charlie nodded and said, “Okay, I will remember it. Open the main umbrella first. If something goes wrong, cut the
main umbrella first and then open the second umbrella.”
“Yes.” Vasily said seriously: “If you don’t need me to parachute with you, then I will monitor your status in real-
time, and then I will direct you to do every step of the operation.”
Charlie smiled slightly: “Okay, I didn’t jump over the umbrella, and I have no experience. With your guidance, it
should be a lot smoother.”
Vasily nodded, patted his chest, and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade, I will do my best to provide you with all
remote guidance at that time!”
Chester said at this time: “Master, the plane can take off at any time.”
Charlie asked him, “How long is the estimated flight time?”
Chester said: “The straight-line distance is only more than 100 kilometers. The plane can take off in five minutes,
and it will be close to the destination 15 to 20 minutes after takeoff.”
“Okay.” Charlie nodded and said calmly: “Then get ready to take off!”
“OK, master!”
Chester walked into the cockpit, and after a few commands, the aircraft
engine slowly started and pushed out from the hangar.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmImmediately after that, the plane taxied all the way to the end of the runway,
and then pushed forward with full force. Two minutes later, it rose into the air
and drove straight over Syria.
After the plane entered Syrian airspace, Chester used a tablet to open a map
of northwestern Syria and said to Charlie:
“Master, it is cloudy today. Although the visibility is not high, it is still easy to
be spotted by the other party during daylighting, so this time we booked The
landing place is
here.”
As he said, he pointed to a place on the screen, his fingertips drew a red circle
on it, and then he drew an arrow pointing to a valley: “And here is your
destination, and the distance of your landing Your destination is about five
kilometers away. After you land on foot, it is safer.”
Charlie waved his hand: “It is originally a mountainous area with a straight-line
distance of five kilometers. It would take two hills to cross. I don’t know how
long it will take. Is there a better way?”
