More importantly, if a country being bombed does not have a large ough airship force, they can only watch helplessly ev in the face of danger.
Thanks to the previous airship research trd led by Arthur, European countries gerally have a considerable airship industry.
However, airship developmt has always be lukewarm, and ev the fast-progressing German Empire has yet to possess an airship capable of traveling a the world.
As long as European countries' airships cannot cross oceans, the United States, ev without an airship force, need not worry about the security of its native land.
But, from the momt the Dawn Airship arrived in Los Angeles, everything changed completely.
If the United States cannot have an airship force, Australasia, situated along the Pacific coast, will evtually become one of America's competitors.
At least for now, the United States has no countermeasures against airships flying high above the skies.
If the emy dropped bombs from high altitudes, will the Americans catch them with their hands?
Ev if the emy's bombing is not accurate, the panic brought to the people by large-scale bombing is ough to plunge the United States into chaos.
Arthur might not ev realize how much change his planned airship trip a the world will bring to the U.S. military.Of course, if Arthur knew, he might ev be more relieved.
After all, no matter how fast airship developmt is, as long as it doesn't surpass the era, airships stand no chance against airplanes.
The main reason is that European and American countries do not place too much emphasis on the developmt of aircraft, so their aircraft performance is not too strong.
This has also led them to not discover that aircraft's military uses far outweigh airships; otherwise, their planes would probably have be upgraded many times.
As the report of the American major was widely spread and supported by the U.S. military, the photo of the airship and the airship news also became the headline news in the United States.
Ev the six Americans who boarded the airship in the photo were exaggeratedly called by the American press and the American people: "The Divine Chos, about to approach God."
In an era without airplanes and airships, the sky was a fantasy land that could only be dreamed of by everyone.
Being able to ascd to the sky was so dreamy and exaggerated for Americans who had never expericed such an evt before.
Perhaps it was because of people's fear and dreams of the sky that the price of airship tickets soared.
Of course, the fact that Americans have money is not ruled out. After all, the cost of building a Dawn Airship is only a 40,000 pounds, which is just about 00,000 US dollars.
According to the value of airship tickets in the United States, a flight loaded with 58 Americans can make a profit of more than 580,000 US dollars, ough to build three airships.
Although the price is somewhat inflated due to the hype of the first global flight, the value and significance of the airship's global flight can be se from it, which is also why those capitalists value airships and this global flight.
The Dawn Airship stayed in Los Angeles for a whole day, not only undergoing a long period of inspection to sure that there would be no problems with the subsequt journey.
At the same time, a large number of living supplies were replished, six Americans were boarded, and the voyage to London began.
So far, the global flight has tak up 5 days. The time it took was neither long nor short, and for Director Theodore, who had a preliminary plan, this time was acceptable.
The second day, under the watchful eyes of the media and Americans, the Dawn Airship set sail again, this time heading to London, United Kingdom, crossing the tire United States and the Atlantic Ocean.
On the Dawn Airship, in a spacious seat, sat John and Daniel, who had be laughing on a skyscraper in Los Angeles before.
The two were actually already interested in airships and had spt a lot of money to buy two tickets wh airship tickets wt on sale in the United States.
Now sitting on the airship, watching the clouds drifting by outside the window from time to time, Daniel realized how shocking airships were.
"Daniel, say no more, as soon as we get back to Los Angeles, let's start setting up the airline company!" At this momt, John, sitting next to Daniel, was a bit intoxicated by the view outside the window and spoke impatitly.
For wealthy people like Daniel and John, the ts of thousands of dollars spt on an airship ticket is nothing.
Sitting by the window of the airship and watching the clouds flashing by outside, the two felt that the ticket price was already worth it.
Moreover, the time saved by the airship is sometimes worth more than the ticket price.
"You're right, John. But I expect many people will covet the huge aviation cake. It looks like we'll need to find some partners." Daniel nodded in agreemt and said with a smile.
The two had originally thought that their ts of millions of dollars in assets would be ough to start a monopoly airline in the United States.
But it seems far from ough; only by pulling in more partners can they get more of the aviation cake.
"We should be grateful that the Australasians chose Los Angeles as their port of call, not the eastern New York. If it had be New York, our competition would have be greater, and our advantage would have be gone." John looked at his resolute frid and said somewhat thankfully.
Although Los Angeles is the largest city in the western United States, its developmt is still somewhat lagging compared to the core eastern United States.
As the most prosperous and developed city in the United States, New York has not only gathered a large number of top American capitalists and terprises but also countless high-ranking officials and nobles.
High-ranking families, huge financial groups, deeply rooted capital, and various new political forces are all forces that John and Daniel cannot shake.
If Australasia had chos New York as its port of call, Daniel and John would have only be left with leftovers in the aviation industry, no matter how interested they were.
"You remind me, buddy. Why don't we start with the Australasian side? After all, the only airships that can travel a the world are made by Australasia. If we monopolize the sale of airships in the United States, isn't that the same as monopolizing the U.S. aviation industry?" Upon hearing his frid's words, Daniel instantly woke up and said to John.
The two exchanged glances and instantly understood each other's inttions. However, due to the large number of Americans a them, they both just nodded tacitly.
"You're right, Daniel. I have a suggestion; our destination this time is Sydney anyway, so let's not go back. If we can reach an agreemt with the Australasian side on the sale of airships, it will be far more valuable than starting an airline first." John, his face excited, whispered to Daniel.
