The popularity of the banshee flying machine, with the beginning of the Spring Festival, has also become more and more high.

The heat isn't just on the passenger side.

Skynet Airlines has now put in 300 Banshee Flying Machines, and after four consecutive days of operation, it has also given other airlines another glimmer of hope.

As we all know, if China's airlines want to expand their business, they must order planes from Airbus or Boeing.

These two aircraft not only have a mature maintenance system, a mature pilot operation training system, but also can be used in any commercial airport around the world.

But after all, these two aircraft are produced in Europe and the United States, and the purchase of such aircraft requires the use of US dollars, the need to pay a high upfront, and then wait for about two years before the aircraft can be mentioned.

After buying a plane, it is not once and for all, but it is a continuous start with spending money.

An aircraft needs to be overhauled, and any spare parts for both aircraft can only be purchased from Boeing Airbus. At the same time, the most important engine of the aircraft also has a limited service life.

Airlines are not allowed to make any changes to the aircraft without permission, otherwise Airbus and Boeing will cancel the subsequent technical maintenance of the aircraft.

Until the appearance of the Banshee Flying Machine.

In fact, when the banshee aircraft produced by the giant beast industry was sent to the Civil Aviation Administration for aircraft safety testing, several large airlines in China received relevant rumors.

It's just that the giant beast industry has launched a flying machine, and various airlines will inevitably have such and such worries and suspicions before seeing the real aircraft.

It is doubtful that the quality of such an aircraft is reliable, and whether it can really be put into commercial operation.

This suspicion, with the Banshee Flying Machine's excellent performance after it was officially put into operation, was gradually dispelled.

This kind of worry was completely shattered with the scene that happened in Shezhou City.

The wind speed of 19 knots can greatly reduce the temperature of the combustion chamber in heavy snow, complex mountainous terrain.

These factors, which have a fatal impact on traditional aircraft, have become more fragile than rice paper in front of the banshee flying machine.

The vertical take-off and landing function, and the more energy-efficient electric drive, have made other airlines obsessed with it.

It can be said that through these four days of operation, the airlines have felt that traditional aircraft have become real garbage, and they have expressed their dedication to banshee aircraft by refusing to sign a follow-up new model order project with Airbus Boeing.

It doesn't matter if they can't fly international routes, they can gradually replace their domestic flights with these aircraft.

Whether the eliminated aircraft is sent to fly international routes, or sold abroad at a discount, it can find a place to exert its residual heat.

……

Following.

Executives sent by several Chinese airlines arrived in Zhongyun.

The meeting was placed in the conference room of Skynet Airlines, and from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the conference room, you could just see the busy scene of the headquarters airport.

When Ye Qing arrived at the conference room, Chang Wanyu had already chatted with several senior management representatives for half an hour.

As soon as Ye Qing arrived, these senior executives of the vice president or general manager immediately looked at Ye Qing together, and their eyes faintly carried the joy of Zhu Yingtai looking at Liang Shanbo.

After shaking hands and greeting each other, they jumped straight to the subject.

The first person to speak was the largest representative of China Southern Airlines, "Mr. Ye, I am the representative of China Southern Airlines. I won't say much about the praise of the Banshee Flying Machine here. China Southern Airlines has stated that if possible, we will replace all its domestic flights with banshee aircraft in the future. ”

Several other representatives subsequently expressed similar attitudes.

The relationship between the airlines cannot be said to be hand-eyed, but it is still okay to be well-informed. Before they came, they had heard enough from the Civil Aviation Administration.

The Banshee Flying Machine was able to pass the safety test of the civil aviation department within two months to obtain the domestic airworthiness certificate, and establish the airport all the way unimpeded. On the one hand, it is due to the fact that the Banshee Flying Machine does have the ability to subvert the traditional flying machine, which is in line with the future localization aviation pattern of the aircraft proposed by Huaxia.

On the other hand, they also vaguely learned that behind the banshee flying machine, there was an air force that was fueling the trouble.

It is rumored that the Air Force attaches great importance to this aircraft, and has preemptively purchased a number of them, which have been sent to mountain and plateau airports for performance testing and design modification of the military version.

Even the Air Force, which has the highest requirements for flying machines, is full of praise, and their civil airlines, what else to worry about the quality of Banshee Flying Machines?

Several senior management representatives came up and shook off their ambitions, which caught Ye Qing off guard.

"Manager Fan, take the liberty of asking, how many planes does your company currently have?"

"As of last year, China Southern Airlines had a total of 768 flights, of which about 600 were domestic flights. We expect to purchase 78 new aircraft this year, but after discussion, we decided to suspend the contract signing program for new aircraft this year. ”

Manager Fan Shiqiu said: "The performance of the banshee flying machine makes it impossible for us to consider traditional aircraft. If possible, we would like to transfer this batch of orders to your company. ”

This year, 78 aircraft were purchased, which is less than two days for the production capacity of the giant beast industry.

In addition, the sale of Banshee Flying Machines to domestic airlines is a strategy that has been set for a long time.

With Skynet Airlines alone, it is impossible to eat the entire aviation market in China. It is also impossible for the Civil Aviation Administration of China to allow Skynet Airlines to collapse the three major national airlines after it grows.

Skynet Airlines flies non-competitive routes, and the three major airlines fly their own commercial routes, which is a development route that has been formulated for a long time.

China is not a highly developed United States, and the aviation industry of China, which started late, is not short of 1,000 or 2,000 commercial aircraft.

One more Skynet Airlines, no problem at all.

In the future, banshee flying machines will be all over China, and several major airlines will have their own banshee flying machines. After being at the same level of competition as Skynet Airlines, we will compete with each other on other routes based on service and quality.

Of course~

China Southern Airlines said that it was willing to replace all domestic flights with banshee aircraft, and it was not a matter of being able to change equipment in a year or two.

China Southern Airlines has to find a home for its hundreds of planes before it can replace them in batches. If they really can't find a home, they can only wait until they have flown the age of the aircraft, scrap it and replace it. An airplane costs hundreds of millions at every turn, who is willing to waste it?

"That's fine. Ye Qing raised his eyebrows, "It's just that the way the banshee aircraft is piloted is different from that of traditional aircraft, and China Southern Airlines may also need to arrange some pilots to come to our headquarters for learning." ”

"Let's buy a simulation cabin, can we train ourselves?" Manager Fan Shiqiu had already visited the simulation cabin training room at the headquarters of Skynet Airlines before Ye Qing came.

That kind of oval-shaped simulation cabin can completely train very mature banshee pilots.

"Isn't it better to operate the real plane?" Ye Qing showed an imperceptible smile, "You send pilots to study with us, and we can arrange for them to train in the simulation cabin, and then they will match one-on-one with our airline pilots and send them to the real plane to fly our routes." ”

"That's a good idea. ”

Manager Fan Shiqiu also smiled, "Mr. Ye's proposal may not only help us train pilots, but also reduce the flight pressure of some pilots for Skynet Airlines." ”

"A few months ago, Miss Chang Wanyu of your company poached a lot of pilots from our China Southern Airlines. ”

"Haha~ Everyone is mutually beneficial. Ye Qingzhi was not embarrassed, "In this way, when your company's pilots and our pilots board the plane one-on-one, we can subsidize the flight hour fee for them according to our pilot's salary standard." ”

"We need to go back and discuss this before we can decide. ”

"But I think Mr. Ye's proposal is very likely. Manager Fan Shiqiu spread his hands, "We are very sincere in China Southern Airlines, so can Ye always see if we are very sincere......

"Banshee Flying Machine, our official offer is 450 million. ”

"This price, everyone must have known it from the civil aviation department. Ye Qing said directly to the representatives of the airlines: "That's right, our price is the same as the price of the Boeing 737-700. But the Banshee Flying Machine's carrying capacity is twice as high. ”

"Boeing's quotation and actual transaction price are usually calculated based on the number of orders. The more orders you have, the better the final price. ”

"Our final preferential price can be negotiated slowly according to the number of orders. ”

"But I can promise you. ”

"How many pilots do you send to our headquarters for training? After the training, everyone will be able to pick up as many Banshee Flying Machines as they can take away. ”

Fan Shiqiu, the manager of China Southern Airlines, wanted to pick up a teacup and drink water, but when he heard this, his hands froze in the air.

Zhang Zhibo, the representative of Air China, was as red as an apple.

The representative of China Eastern Airlines kept blinking, and the frequency was similar to that of the transmitter.

They know the news that Skynet Aviation is in dire need of pilots, but what is the situation......

Listening to the tone of this Mr. Ye, is the production capacity of the giant beast industry more ferocious than Boeing, Airbus, and Bombardier combined?

Buying an airplane can be like buying a car, and you can pick up the car on the spot if you have money?

"That'...... Can you pay in installments?" Manager Fan Shiqiu didn't go to serve the teacup anymore, he rubbed his hands back and forth.

Traditionally, orders from Boeing or Airbus can also be paid for in installments, and in fact most airlines choose to pay for the aircraft in installments. China Southern Airlines ranks first in China in terms of scale, but its annual net profit is only about 20 billion yuan.

This year, they plan to order 78 new aircraft, and it is no surprise that they will be able to start receiving them in two years.

Then, it will take five years to pay the contract in installments.

"Of course, you can pay in installments, and when you buy a plane from Boeing Airbus, you not only need US dollars, but you also have to go to a foreign commercial bank for a loan. Not to mention the trouble, the interest rate is also very high. If you buy from us, you will be able to apply for a loan from a domestic bank. ”

"That'...... We can take away five... Fifty new planes?" Manager Fan Shiqiu's eyes were full of anticipation.

"As long as there is money. ”

"A hundred are fine. ”
