Millions of fans’ hearts are directed to the U23 Vietnam team. But why when the plane landed, there was water sprayed on it?
It’s really not that hard to understand. This spraying is known as “water salute ” – a welcome rule for flights of a particularly important nature.
There will be 2 fire trucks to do this. Water is sprayed in an arc, like a gate at a wedding ceremony. If it is on a sunny day, the water refracts light, forming a rainbow.
The plane carrying the Vietnam U23 team landed under 2 sprinklers from the fire truck.
Usually around the world, the “water salute” ritual will be performed when a veteran pilot retires, to mark the first or last flight of an airline, or of a new type of aircraft.
In addition, flights of a historical nature are also welcome in this way. Like former US president John F. Kennedy on his last international flight, or current President Donald Trump when he first landed at LaGuardia Airport after being elected in 2016, both were greeted with a ceremonial welcome. This.
And in the case of U23 Vietnam, the miracle they have done is completely worthy of being celebrated with such a ceremony, or even more. The warriors have worked so hard!
