Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

The news that came out of this guy's mouth almost made Wang Lu jump in shock.

"Boss, the guys from the marine police just called to report that a passenger plane was hit by a thunderstorm and crashed in Lake Victoria. He wants to ask for our help in the rescue!"

Wang Lu looked at Parker in disbelief. Seeing that this guy didn't look like he was joking, he confirmed the seriousness of the matter.

A passenger plane crashed in the Lake District?

Although Chief Rigo and his gang of marine policemen were busy doing business, they were not joking about such things.

It was just that he didn't hear any movement at all, but after recalling the noise caused by thunderstorms in the lake area, Wang Lu understood.

In this case, even if the TNT explosive explodes in the lake area, if it is not at the scene, the sound may not be heard from a certain distance, not to mention that the entire Lake Victoria area stretches hundreds of kilometers.

Therefore, Wang Lu did not hesitate at all and gave the order directly to Parker:

"Ask Rigo the specific coordinates of the water area where the incident occurred, and notify two AC313 firefighting helicopters to take off for rescue. The remaining people immediately set off on speedboats and my private yacht!"

At this time, people's lives were at stake, so Wang Lu would not sit back and do nothing, but he still added:

"Everyone, please pay attention to safety and be sure to carry out rescue operations while ensuring your own safety!"

Soon, after receiving the order, the pilots of the two AC313 firefighting helicopters also made emergency preparations for takeoff. After loading a team of veterans respectively, they also obtained the specific water coordinates from Parker and took off immediately.

The remaining veterans took speedboats and yachts, and even the Blue Sky that Wang Lu prepared for hotel guests was driven to the waters where the incident occurred.

The incident took place in a lake area 20 to 30 kilometers away from U-shaped Bay, in the waters near Ukerewe Island. Wang Lu personally boarded his private yacht and headed to the scene of the incident.

Fortunately, after everyone set off, the thunderstorm activity in the lake area gradually subsided, and the wind and rain stopped.

Wang Lu also thought of something before setting off:

"Let that guy Rigo send a few guys who are familiar with the terrain of the lake area to lead us!"

Wang Lu didn't want his yacht to be derailed by tentacles on the way to rescue and die before he could escape.

After Wang Lu made the request, Chief Li Ge immediately dispatched one of the few patrol speedboats in the Marine Police Force to lead the way for Wang Lu.

These marine policemen are not very capable, but apart from the local fishermen, who is most familiar with the terrain of the lake area, it is these marine policemen.

Even the fishermen's activities are limited to a certain lake area, but the scope of these marine police patrols is much wider.

So under the leadership of these marine police, Wang Lu, Parker and the veterans also moved forward at full speed.

Even though the Sunseeker 65 under Wang Lu had plenty of power, its displacement and tonnage were very large after all, and it could only barely keep up with the speedboats driven by the veterans.

However, it was the two AC313 firefighting helicopters that moved faster. After taking off from the living area base camp, they caught up with the speedboat that set off from the lakeside area in a short time and were ahead. In less than half an hour, Wang Lu and his party arrived at the water area where the incident occurred.

Across the distance, Wang Lu saw a commotion on the lake. Many small boats were patrolling around. They should be the indigenous fishermen of the nearby Ukerewe Island. Fortunately, no fire appeared on the lake, which made Wang Lu relaxed. One breath.

Fortunately, there was no explosion or fire in the accident.

In this case, the possibility of survival and subsequent survival of the people inside the cabin will be greatly improved.

A small and medium-sized civil aviation aircraft was plunged into the water with its nose down at a 45-degree angle, and its fuselage had been broken in the middle. There were still a lot of fuselage fragments floating on the water, and thick smoke was coming out of the fuselage.

Many struggling figures in the lake were calling for help.

Across the distance, Wang Lu discovered that this civil aviation passenger plane seemed to be a very old model. It was not heavy and could carry not many passengers.

It may be because of this that it lost control because it was hit by a thunderstorm, but it is also because the tonnage is not heavy enough that it can fall into the lake area without much damage. Maybe it could still be there before the crash. After a period of gliding...

Parker on the side also opened his mouth to answer Wang Lu's doubts at this time:

"Boss, this flight seems to belong to a local low-cost airline. The local airlines do not have the money of the large international airlines, so they can only purchase some old models, or even select those that are used by large international airlines. Airlines maintain the retired aircraft models and then continue to serve them. This type of aircraft has been gradually withdrawn from the flight sequence by European and American airlines at the beginning of the century, and only some low-cost airlines in Africa are still using it!"

"This kind of passenger plane can only carry about 40 to 50 passengers, and it should only perform domestic short-distance navigation missions!"

After Parker finished speaking, Wang Lu and others finally reached the water area where the incident occurred.

Wang Lu did not hesitate and directly issued the order, asking all the veterans to go into the rescue.

It is impossible to carry out rescue missions solely by relying on the small boats of local fishermen.

Some passengers were even trapped in an area surrounded by fuselage debris, and fishermen's boats using simple propeller blade engines as their power source had no way to get close.

Although it is an old model, the alloy material used in the fuselage is still strong. Once the propeller blades hit these fuselage fragments, the blades will be damaged at least, or the fishermen's boats will directly lose power, or even The propeller blades and metal fragments of the fuselage were whipped together, which is likely to cause unnecessary casualties.

Although the fishermen came to help with the rescue very enthusiastically, no one wanted to see the fishing boat they depended on for their livelihood damaged, so they could only patrol the outside and rescue one or two lucky people ashore.

However, more passengers on the passenger plane could only continue to struggle in the water. The lucky ones were able to hold on to some fuselage fragments floating on the water to support themselves. The rest were not so lucky.

After all, such low-cost airliners are not equipped with life jackets. If they are not water-resistant, you can imagine the fate that awaits them.

Of course, what's worse is that when the fuselage crashed into the water of Lake Victoria, he was knocked unconscious due to the strong impact. Such people sank to the bottom of the lake without even a chance to struggle... (End of this chapter)
