Halo Mystery Cache

--- Orders for Alphateam ---
After your clean-up in the south-east - good job by the way - you have to insert into an urban area and retrieve information from one of our contacts. Due to security reasons, our contact only did send us an encrypted message. You will have to figure out what it means and where your final dropzone is located:

DZ 1: 32 U PU 85057 99031
At these coordinates are two numbers painted on the asphalt. Note the numbers as (ab).
a = ___ b = ___
 
DZ 2: Project a new waypoint: Bearing 068°, distance 2.123 clicks. At these coordinates, two further digits are painted on the asphalt. Note them as (cd).
c = ___ d = ___
 
DZ 3: 32 U QU ad360 5(b+c)415
At these coordinates you will find an aircraft. The type designation of this aircraft contains a four digit number. Note this number as (efgh).
e = ___ f = ___ g = ___ h = ___
 
DZ 4: 32 U PU 8h627 g5h3e
Here are again two digits painted on the asphalt. Note them as (jk).
j = ___ k = ___
 
DZ 5:
Project a new waypoint: Bearing 075°, distance 790 m. At these coordinates, two further digits are painted on asphalt. Note them as (lm).
l = ___ m = ___
 
DZ 6: 32 U MV (j+k+e)25m4 5(m-l)f5f
At these coordinates you find again an aircraft. When did the first type of this aircraft absolve its maiden flight? Note the day (no) and the month (pq)
n = ___ o =___ p = ___ q = ___
 
Airfield: 32 U PV 77(n+q)q(n+o) j2q(p+o+g)b
Close to the city is a small airfield. From there you will be taken to your final drop-zone. A plane is standing by.

Get your gear - transportation is on it's way.
Good luck!

The original idea of this cache is from another cacher but he doesn't want to be named
