Why are Vietnam U23 aircrafts being

Million hearts fans are heading to the team. But why when the plane landed, there was water sprayed on it?

Actually, it is not too difficult to understand. This water spray is called "water salute " - a welcome rule for flights of special importance.

There will be 2 fire trucks doing this. Water is sprayed into an arc, like a gate at a wedding ceremony. If it was on a beautiful sunny day, the water still refracted the light, forming a rainbow.

Usually in the world, the "water salute" will be performed when a multi-combat pilot retires, to hit the first or last flight of an airline carrier, or of a new type of aircraft.

In addition, historic flights are also welcome in this way. Like former US President John F. Kennedy during the last international flight, or incumbent President Donald Trump, when he first landed at LaGuardia airport after being elected in 2016, both were greeted with rites. this.

And with the case of U23 Vietnam, the miracle they have done is fully deserved to be celebrated with such a rite, even more so. The warriors are too strenuous!

Regarding the origin of the ritual, unfortunately there is no accurate information. But basically, it has become popular in the world since the 90s.

Sometimes, the "water salutes" are also used for boats, for the same reason as airplanes.
