令人印象深刻的“幽灵飞机”表演，800架无人机出现在中国航展上

Flying is one of those divisive topics where people either love it or hate it. However, I think we can all agree that airplanes as a man-made invention (and aeronautics in general) are amazing regardless.

飞行是引起争议的话题之一，人们要么喜欢它，要么讨厌它。然而，我想我们都同意，飞机作为一项人造发明(以及航空学)，无论如何都是令人惊叹的。

Ever since the dawn of humankind, man has been looking up at the skies with hopes of joining the birds in flight. Fast forward to today and we can all partake in the wonder that is flying. Louis CK puts it best: “Did you fly through the air, incredibly, like a bird, did you partake in the miracle of human flight with you contributing zero? […] You are sitting in a chair—IN THE SKY.”

自从人类诞生以来，人类就一直仰望天空，希望能与鸟儿一起飞翔。快进到今天，我们所有人都可以参与到飞行的奇迹中。路易斯·CK说得最好:“你在空中飞翔过吗?难以置信的是，你像鸟一样，你参与过人类飞行的奇迹吗?你坐在一张椅子上——在天上。”

800 multicolored drones took off into the night sky to form a “ghost plane” & other aircrafts

800架彩色无人机在夜空中起飞，形成了一架“幽灵飞机”和其他飞机的形状

Participants of the 2019 Nanchang Flight Convention had a magnificent chance to witness just how jaw-dropping aeronautics really is. 800 individual drones took flight to light up the night sky in the shapes of airplanes and helicopters.

2019年南昌飞行大会的与会者有一个绝佳的机会来见证令人瞠目的航空是怎样的。800架无人机以飞机和直升机的形状点亮夜空。

The spectacular performance of the drones was a coordinated effort to celebrate aeronautics in China by showcasing the different kinds of aircraft available today. Drone formations took the shape of everything from passenger carriers to military helicopters to fighter jets to old-school propeller planes.

这些无人机的壮观表现是一种协调的努力，通过展示今天可用的不同类型的飞机来庆祝中国的航空学。从客运飞机到军用直升机，从战斗机到老式螺旋桨飞机，无人机编队的形状可谓五花八门。

The performance was part of the 2019 Nanchang Flight Convention program celebrating aviation in China

这场表演是2019南昌飞行大会庆祝中国航空计划的一部分

One of the most spectacular parts of the performance was the “ghost plane”. It illuminated the night sky in eerie blue with a rhythmic red light pulsing front to back every once in a while for added effect.

表演中最精彩的部分之一是“幽灵飞机”。它用一种有节奏的红光照亮了怪异的蓝色夜空，这种红光每隔一段时间就会前后跳动一次，以增加效果。

The aeronautical convention is said to be the first extensive aviation exhibition in Jiangxi Province of such caliber. Its goal is to promote the growth of the Nanchang aviation industry and to urge greater investment in the field nation-wide.

航空大会据说是江西省第一次大规模的航空展览。它的目标是促进南昌航空工业的发展，并敦促在全国范围内加大该领域的投资。

Drones were wirelessly coordinating amongst each other to form spectacular aircraft displays in the sky

无人机之间通过无线方式相互协调，在天空中形成壮观的飞机显示屏

Drone technology has progressed quite a bit over the past years. Companies and hobbyists alike are experimenting with a variety of tech, enabling drones to do more than just fly. Coordinated shows such as the one in Nanchang are all thanks to wireless dongles built into the drones, allowing them to communicate their movements in sync based on a set program.

无人机技术在过去几年里有了很大的进步。公司和无人机爱好者都在试验各种各样的技术，让无人机不仅仅能飞行。像南昌这样的协调表演都要归功于无人机内置的无线适配器，使它们能够根据设定的程序同步交流它们的动作。
