The specific version of this helicopter is the Mi-8-AUx, which was successfully developed by Miri Moscow Helicopter Manufacturing Joint Stock Company 15 years ago and put into the Australian market. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It adopts some of the new technologies used in the second generation helicopter, which greatly extends its lifespan, and has a reputation for ruggedness and few failures in the civil helicopter market.

The fuselage structure of the helicopter is the traditional all-metal cross-section semi-monocoque nacelle plus tail boom structure, which is divided into front fuselage, middle fuselage, tail boom and tail oblique beam with fixed flat tail, the main material is aluminum alloy, and the tail part is made of some titanium alloy and high-strength steel.

The front part of the fuselage is the cockpit, the cockpit can accommodate the main and co-pilot and random mechanics, and the rear of the cab is the passenger and cargo compartment, and the rear has a large cargo door and a passenger boarding ladder that opens downward in the middle of the rear.

Compared with the helicopters put into the civilian market in Europe and the Americas, the Mi-8-AUx cabin has 28 sets of foldable seats, which means that it can accommodate 28 people at a time.

Generally, European and American civil helicopters have reached this price level, and they are all commercial helicopters, which can accommodate less than half of the 28 people, and pay more attention to enjoyment.

The Soviets seem to be ready for war all the time, and the Mi-8-AUx is much less comfortable than helicopters of the same price, and there is no luxury at all, focusing on speed, load-bearing, and survival ability.

Standing underneath this huge helicopter, Li Du reached out and patted its shell.

Lao Maozi didn't say anything about the quality of the things, but under his vigorous slapping, the helicopter made a muffled sound of 'clang', which didn't move at all, but shook his hands painfully.

Wolf pulled open the cockpit door, and on each side of the cockpit there were large hatches that could slide backwards, and there was also a hatch in the ceiling.

Li Du climbed up and asked, "What is this hatch up there for?

Brother Wolf shook his head: "It's for checking the engine." ”

The cockpit is densely packed with dashboards and various tools, which Li Du doesn't understand, but they belong to Brother Wolf's forte, and he introduced them to Li Du:

"These are two stations, one is an UHF radio station with a frequency range of 118-135.9 MHz and a transmission range of 100 kilometers, and the other is a high-frequency radio station with a frequency of 2-8 MHz and a transmission range of 1,000 kilometers......"

"This is the in-flight intercom equipment, the wireless phone, this is used to communicate with the back cabin, this is used to communicate with the ground, keep it good......"

"In front of you these are the instruments of navigation equipment that guarantee all-weather flight, gyroscopes, airspeed indicators, turn indicators, this is an altimeter, this is a climb power indicator, a magnetic compass, an astronomical compass for extremely low flight, an automatic radio compass, a radio altimeter with a warning of "dangerous altitude" ......"

"This is a civilian model, if it is a military combat helicopter, then we should have an infrared jammer above the front of the tail boom above our heads, and 3 tracer bomb launchers above both sides of the rear cockpit window......"

Brother Wolf introduced it very professionally, obviously, he knows this helicopter very well, more than the Dolphin business helicopter they have ridden before.

It's a pity that Li Du couldn't understand it, especially when Brother Wolf introduced the engine, reducer and oil system, he couldn't understand it.

Godzilla couldn't understand it, so he admired Brother Wolf very much: "You are so good, you know so much." ”

Brother Wolf smiled and said, "I received exchange training in Russia, and there was this helicopter that I was familiar with at that time. I only scratch the surface, if the boss wants to drive this helicopter in the future, I can introduce a comrade-in-arms to be the pilot. ”

Li Du asked, "Can't you open it?"

Brother Wolf said: "This is a medium-sized helicopter, it needs two pilots, one pilot can't handle it, and needs the co-pilot to assist." ”

Li Du said: "The comrade-in-arms you introduced can be the co-pilot?"

Brother Wolf shook his head and said, "He's a professional pilot, and he's also very good at repairing this thing, and as far as I know, he's the best pilot of all Russian helicopters." ”

Hearing that Brother Wolf admired this comrade-in-arms so much, Li Du said: "If you can get him over, then I am willing to pay him a high salary." ”

can get such a high evaluation from Brother Wolf, this person is definitely not a mediocre hand, if he wants to hire someone, he must give a high price, he can't have such good luck, like picking up Brother Wolf and then picking up a helicopter piloting genius.

Visited the cockpit, as well as the cabin at the back.

The cabin was empty and spacious, more than Steve's helicopter.

Its seats are mounted along the side walls and are all foldable seats, which can be pulled down to sit on people, and together they create space to accommodate goods.

On the floor, there are tethering rings, winches and pulleys that wolves guide them, and the cockpit is equipped with a rigging system on the outside that can be used to transport large cargo.

After visiting the helicopter, Li Du said: "Are you sure this is not a military helicopter? How do I think it doesn't look like a civilian model? The decoration here is too simple, right?"

Brother Wolf said: "It can be said to be a good civilian type, or it can be said to be an industrial model, not for commercial use, but for transporting goods, such as gem mines." ”

This explains that in fact, the excavation of black opal is very difficult, and it is even more difficult to polish after excavation.

The reason why Li Du was able to dig up the gems easily was because he had the help of small flying insects, otherwise he would first dig up a large amount of ore, polish the ore, and then look for gems.

The helicopter was supposed to be used to transport ore, and the mine owner wanted to dig out the ore, send it somewhere, and then polish it.

It's a pity, for some reason, the mine owner ran away, and he disassembled and parked the helicopter inside and didn't take it away.

Li Du couldn't understand why he would give up such a helicopter, he had been inspected by Xiao Feiworm before, and the helicopter was fully equipped, and the main machines such as engines were all in the list.

Brother Wolf also checked, and he didn't find out why the helicopter was abandoned.

If you can't think about it, you don't want to, in short, Li Du has the first helicopter in his life.

Of course, this helicopter is still a long way from flying into the blue sky, and it needs maintenance, comprehensive maintenance, rotors and tail wings, etc.

Li Du wanted to find a helicopter sales company to take care of these jobs, and Brother Wolf shook his head and said that he would contact his comrade-in-arms when he returned, Ivan Vladimir Grushakov.

After the call, Brother Wolf said: "Boss, he will fly over from Crimea soon." ”

Li Du was surprised: "What about the salary?"

Brother Wolf said: "Yes, this is easy to discuss, I believe he will be happy to stay by your side, work easier and make more money,"

After a pause, he added, "Live with more dignity." ”
