And the most crucial reason for choosing to use a helicopter was that Yang Jing judged that the locations and coordinates recorded in Alfred’s two notebooks might not be so accurate.
Yang Jing used his identification skills to authenticate the two notebooks and confirmed that they were written by Alfred himself. He also confirmed that Alfred wrote these two notebooks in 1946.
The autumn of that year was exactly when Alfred died, which means that these two notebooks should have been written by Alfred during his lifetime. However, in the 1940s, there was no satellite positioning at all. In that era, if you wanted to accurately locate a place, you could only locate it by looking at a large-scale map.
The coordinates generated by locating on a map are certainly not as accurate as the current satellite positioning system. Therefore, if you want to find the exact location, you need to explore it in the air first.
According to the coordinates of that era, it is very difficult to find a hidden place in the vast mountains, especially these places have been in the mountains for more than 70 years. Just like the first place Yang Jing found in his notebook, that is, the place of Kabugao on Luzon Island, there are only two hints in the notebook, "Luzon Island" and "Kabugao", plus the deciphered coordinates. Even if you look for it with a high-definition satellite map, you can only see the vast sea of forests and nothing else.
Although Kabugao is a small town, it is located in the mountains. No matter how small it is, if you cannot accurately locate it, you will not be able to find the hidden place in Kabugao.
As for the two hidden locations in Mindoro Island, they are similar to Cabugao. Even though there are coordinates, looking at the satellite map, there are only trees and rivers, and there are no useful clues at all.
Just like the first hidden place that Yang Jing and his team are about to find, the two place names are "Mindoro Island" and "San Teodoro", and after the name San Teodoro, there is a deciphered coordinate - N13.31E120.94.
Although he could fly there directly with the exact coordinates, Yang Jing wanted to take a closer look from the air to see what was different about this hidden place. This way, he could accumulate some experience for finding other hidden places.
