Chapter 555: Yang Jie's Ambition!

In the memory of Yang Jie's previous life, the 380, the largest double-decker passenger aircraft in the world's aviation history that first flew in April 2005, was rejected by a large area of the market after its listing, and sold very poorly, only more than 200 were sold in more than ten years, and the interval of more than 400 aircraft was very far from the goal of achieving breakeven.

In the middle of this, there are even cases where airlines have been in service for ten years and then surrender their leases, and these second-hand mobile phones have no other airlines to take over, so they can only be dismantled and the dismantled parts are put into the market.

These large airliners typically have a structural life of more than 30 years, and it is very rare for them to be surrendered after only ten years of service.

Airbus's 380 has been completely snubbed in the United States, the world's largest aviation market, and no airline has any intention of buying it, and all Nippon Airways has only bought three of the Japanese airlines that have always been keen on large aircraft, and there is no sign of continuing to buy them.

Whether in South America, Africa, and the rising India, there is no sign of ordering, and Huaxia has only purchased 5 aircraft, because it has been flying domestic routes, this model has been in a state of loss, until the international oil price is sluggish to achieve profitability.

Airbus's assumption of the market has been significantly skewed, far from achieving the expected scale effect, the previous investment of more than $25 billion is unlikely to be recovered, and due to the small number of orders, each aircraft produced has to lose tens of millions of dollars.

Boeing, on the other hand, made the right judgment on the market, launched the very successful 787 series aircraft, and upgraded its 747 series aircraft, plus the launch of the 777 series aircraft, this set of combination punches made the Airbus 380 almost nothing.

This has to make people sigh at the accuracy of Boeing's grasp of the market.

Airbus later put the 380 look forward to the Huaxia market, but at that time Huaxia and Yang Jie's judgment is not much different, Huaxia not only did not form a number of large aviation transit hubs, but the passenger flow growth rate of the second-tier airport was significantly faster than the domestic first-tier cities, at that time, a large number of domestic airlines opened direct flights from the second-tier cities to and from the international first-tier cities, and also opened flights from the first-tier cities to the international second-tier cities, no company used the Big Mac for transfer, more is the application of fewer seats, higher fuel economy Boeing 787。

Airbus still has not given up, repeatedly emphasizing that at least 100 380 aircraft are needed in Huaxia, the problem is that domestic airlines are not interested in this aircraft at all, and Airbus cannot sell it at all.

Thinking about the grand occasion of this giant aircraft that first flew in April 2005 on the day of its first flight, Yang Jie was really impressed in his heart.

At that time, in order to prevaricate the large number of visitors, the local part of Toulouse temporarily prepared a parking lot for 15,000 cars, and dispatched 400 gendarmes and police officers from neighboring cities to maintain order, and some fanatics even camped in the local area for more than a week, just to capture the moment of take-off.

Airbus advertised the day of its maiden flight as "a huge day" and that at the Farnbrough Air Show, Airbus overshadowed Boeing, which was celebrating its 100th birthday.

But the next choice of the market was a slap in the face to Airbus!

The trade market is changing, and if a giant company like Airbus makes a big bet on the pulse of the market, it can only lose its bottoms.

Thanks to Airbus, these countries in Europe have subsidized Airbus, and Airbus still has other models to support, otherwise it would have fallen long ago.

An industry like aircraft manufacturing must have the backing of the government, and if there is not enough strength of the country behind this aircraft manufacturer, an aircraft manufacturer will completely stop cooking if it is not careful, such as Fokker is a living example.

Yang Jie knew that even if he acquired Fokker Company, he would compete with COMAC Group Company in China, and the support he could get was limited, and the only thing he could rely on was the accuracy of the market grasp and the extremely fast market response speed.

If the production cost of the aircraft and the cost of customer application are minimized, Yang Jie needs to do.

According to an analysis of the market by aviation consulting firms, propeller engines have a lower cruising altitude and require less time during the climb or landing phase. However, if the range of the propeller exceeds 400 nautical miles, the turboprop will lose the upper hand in efficiency relative to the jet regional airliner. This means that propeller aircraft are important for routes up to 500 nautical miles, which are less time-consuming, but can significantly reduce fuel consumption.

Turboprops dominate the 50- to 90-seat regional segment, where the most propeller aircraft account for about 90% of the market, and aircraft manufacturers have ended production of 50-seat regional airliners, and sales of 70- and 90-seat jets are also falling, further expanding the 90-seat turboprop market. In the next 20 years, the demand for 50 to 90-seat turboprop aircraft will exceed 3,100.

The best in this segment are Bombardier and France's R, where R only produces regional turboprops with less than 90 seats, both companies have done a very good job of market research, especially R aircraft has more than 200 operators in more than 100 countries and regions, and R aircraft accounts for 80% of the global turboprop market, especially in the Asia-Pacific region.

Although Yang Jie said that he wanted to develop a 100-seat propeller aircraft, it was also because the current Huaxia Kingdom paid more attention to the development of trunk routes, and then developed smaller regional small aircraft.

Now China's domestic regional aircraft only account for 2.5% of China's total domestic civil aircraft, and in the international market this proportion is 25%-30%, there is a huge market to explore, although the future of high-speed trains will squeeze out a part of the market share, but this market is still very large.

Moreover, the use of propeller aircraft to have the right capacity and lower one-way cost, especially suitable for developing and creating new routes, and the risk is low, Yang Jie is still very confident in this.

There are now 141 airports in civil aviation in Huaxia, the civil aviation flow is highly concentrated, and now the number of airports is still growing, the traffic of the top 50 airports is entrenched in 91% of the national civil aviation, but the combined flow of the airports in the back is very low, many airports are almost idle, because the airlines attach importance to trunk aircraft, there is no suitable small branch aircraft in China, leaving Yang Jie with a lot of opportunities.

And if the application of fuel cell propeller aircraft can greatly reduce the application cost, now Huaxing group company has been able to hydrogen oil technology to a lower level than fuel, and there will be no motor at high altitude like turboprop engine power landing, the development of aircraft in the load, ceiling, range, noise will have a grand improvement.

The speed of jet airliners is generally between Mach 800 and Mach 1, and Yang Jie's R&D goal for Ruisheng Aerodynamic Technology's R&D center is to develop a high-thrust propeller that can reach a cruising speed of 800 kilometers per hour, which is close to the speed of jet airliners.

Now the economic cruising speed of the turboprop aircraft has a maximum cruising speed of more than 500 kilometers per hour, and it takes a lot of technical difficulties to reach Yang Jie's target R&D center, but if a breakthrough is made in the material and aerodynamic design of the propeller, this can allow Huaxing Group Company to launch a passenger aircraft close to a jet airliner, which can sponsor Huaxing Group Company to grab a big cake from the strong jet airliner market.

However, in order to achieve Yang Jie's goal, it is possible to acquire a company with rich experience in aircraft production.

If Huaxia's aviation industry strength can reach the level of the Soviet Union, Yang Jieda can use these to set up a new aircraft manufacturing company in China, but Huaxia has always imitated civil aircraft production, and has not formed its own aircraft design concept until now.

China is very strong in the aerodynamic design of fighter jets, but the construction of civil aircraft is very different from fighter jets, and there is no such foundation in China, and it is still imitating the transport aircraft of the Soviet Union.
