Behind the dashing exterior: The other side of the story is this: Ordinarily, flying duties at the base begin early (when the sun is just six degrees above the horizon) and go on until after dark (when the sun falls six degrees below the horizon). If you add in night flying, a pilot's responsibilities are even heavier.
通常基地裡的飛行任務從時曉（太陽距地平線六度）開始，一直持續到中昏（太陽落到地平線下六度）才結束；若加上夜航任務，飛行員的工作負擔更重。
