Chapter 189 Bell 430 Helicopter (Subscription Requested!)
It is not troublesome to learn helicopter driving in Huaxia, compared to a passenger driver's license, a private driver's license is simpler, even if you choose the most expensive VIP service, it is only a few hundred thousand, and the real difficulty is the aircraft airworthiness license.
Without this certificate, even if the plane is delivered to the door and assembled, it cannot take off, and can only be a 1:1 model.
These were all found by Xia Yushun, and he didn't know if he had this certificate.
"Withdraw!"
"Huh~~"
A cowhide document bag appears out of thin air.
Xia Yu opened the bag and poured all the contents on the dining table.
Original invoices, transport documents, insurance policies, nationality registration certificates, radio station licenses and most importantly, airworthiness certificates are all available.
The system dad is really powerful, he has a full set of documents, and he doesn't play the smuggling set.
However, these are not enough, if you want to fly, you have to apply to the air traffic control department for the airspace and flight plan, and you can only take off after approval.
"...... Night"
The phone rang, and Xia Yu saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello?"
"Hello Mr. Xia, we are Jinrui General Aviation Company, your Bell 430 helicopter has completed the assembly and test flight, you can come and sign at any time. ”
It turned out to be the telephone of the general aviation company, which is also a characteristic of the private aviation industry in China, and the private purchase of helicopters must sign a custody agreement with the general aviation company for anchoring, otherwise it is a black flight.
The system arranges for Xia Yu to be affiliated with this Jinrui General Aviation Company, and also provides hosting, repair and maintenance services.
For example, refueling, helicopters are not easy to refuel, unlike cars that can find a random gas station.
"Well, I have time in the morning, and I'll be there by half-past eight. ”
The helipad is a capital "H", which does not require a special runway like passenger aircraft and business jets, so Jinrui General Aviation Company was built in a relatively remote place in the suburbs of Fudong.
Xia Yu thought that the navigation was the wrong way at first, but an orange helicopter in the sky gave him the direction.
The helipad is lined up in the boxy square, and behind it is a huge hangar.
Get closer and see that the hangar is divided into two, one is for maintenance of the hangar, and the other is for long-term parking of helicopters, after all, the local tyrants who can afford helicopters will not go out by helicopter every day.
When I came to the gate and saw Xia Yu's Cullinan, the doorman let him go directly, parked the car in the parking lot next to him, and Xia Yu saw a man and a woman coming over as soon as he got out of the car.
"Mr. Xia, you're here!"
The two obviously knew Xia Yu, but Xia Yu didn't know them, but the one who was talking seemed to be the man on the phone.
"My name is Zhou Jian, I am the commissioner in charge of you, you can just find me for the application of the route and the maintenance of the aircraft, this is our manager Liu. ”
The younger man said.
"Hello, where's my plane?"
Xia Yu said directly, he now wants to see his first plane.
"Mr. Xia, we can understand your feelings, I'll take you over now!"
Manager Liu, who had never spoken, smiled and raised the direction of the mobile phone library.
"Our company has been established for 15 years and has been committed to the private aviation industry, with more than 40 helicopters of various types parked in the hangar all year round, and many celebrities have chosen our company. ”
Pulling open the door of the hangar, Manager Liu and Xia Yu introduced.
"Celebrities, aren't they all buying business jets?"
Xia Yu asked curiously, the income of the top stars can afford to buy a private jet, but they still choose a business jet with a longer range, and the helicopter should not be attractive to them with a busy schedule.
"Mr. Xia, there are many types of helicopters, some are expensive and some are cheap, and the price span is very large, like the single engine is very cheap, some don't even need 10 million, millions can be bought, and some flying stars can afford to buy one or two sports cars less. ”
Manager Liu complimented Xia Yu, after all, his Bell 430 is seven or eight above others, and he is a real rich man.
"I see. ”
Xia Yu was stunned, but he was not interested in celebrities, so he did not continue to ask.
"That's it, and please Mr. Xia, you can lift the cloth with your own hands. ”
The three of them walked to a helicopter in the corner and stopped, this cloth-covered helicopter looked several times larger than the little guy next to it, and the diameter of the rotor was directly more than ten meters.
Xia Yu bent down and grabbed the corner of the cloth hard.
"Huh~~"
An all-black painted Bell 430 appeared in front of Xia Yu and directly sucked away all his sight.
The front two seats sit the front and co-pilot, and the back is spacious for six to eight people, and after personalized customization, the front and rear seats are very luxurious, even if you ride for two hours in a row, you will not feel tired.
"Mr. Xia, I have seen no less than ten Bell 430s in the past nine years, and this one is the most luxurious, hand-sewn leather seats, and even equipped with massage functions, and the windows are also soundproof glass equipped with the top D-class cars, which isolates the noise to the greatest extent......"
Manager Liu said that although the helicopter belongs to Xia Yu, she knows more about its various functions than the owner.
"Manager Liu, I'll learn about these later, I just want to know now if we can fly now?"
No matter how good the plane is parked on the ground, it is just a model, and only when it flies, soars in the clouds, and overlooks the earth can you experience that happiness.
"Yes, but only nearby, if you want to go to the city, you have to apply for a route in advance. ”
Applying for a route and getting permission is only the first step, if you just go around the city and come back, it is nothing, but if you land, it will be very expensive.
I heard Manager Liu say that it will cost tens of thousands of dollars to stop once.
Gan!
Xia Yu's money didn't come from the wind, and he had to work hard to sign in every day.
Stop once to scatter tens of thousands, and if you stop a few more times, he will really scatter coins.
No, when he went back, he had to suggest that the property in the community get two aprons, and the average price of 167,000 square meters of the community did not even have such a basic configuration, didn't it make others laugh.
When Xia Yu was thinking wildly, Manager Liu had already arranged for the car to tow his helicopter out of the hangar to fill with aviation kerosene, and the pilot who could fly the Bell 430 model was also quickly in place.
"Squeak ~ Squeak ~ ~ Squeak ......"
The engine ignited, and the four propellers began to spin, like a giant electric fan, and the wind began to blow downward.
It's a bit of a helicopter in the movie, Xia Yu bent down close to the cockpit, opened the hatch and sat directly in the co-pilot seat with the best view.
Put on the headphones, the gradually louder roar is cut out, and then close the door, the noise is even lower, but still noticeable.
Looking at the dense dashboard, Xia Yu was a little dazzled, and before he could take a closer look, he felt that his body was light, and the helicopter hung in the air and flew towards the sky.
