There are only three engines...... Gong Jianjun was a little speechless about this result. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Before Vasily spoke, he thought about various possibilities, such as the damage to some of the equipment on board, for example, the serious safety risks of the aircraft due to improper maintenance...... He thought of all kinds of possibilities, but he didn't expect that there were only three engines on this Il-76-LL.

In the past few days, Gong Jianjun has made up some knowledge about the aero engine air test platform, not only knowing the usefulness of this thing, but also understanding that not all aircraft can be used as an aero engine test platform, and that twin engines are the minimum requirements, if you use a twin-engine aircraft to modify, you must install a separate hardpoint to mount the engine that needs to be tested, just like the 226 platform developed on the basis of Figure 16, as for dismantling an engine, And then use this engine mount to install the test engine, which is absolutely not allowed - in fact, the best option is not to use a twin-engine aircraft as a test platform.

Twin-engine is not a good option, and three-engine is not enough insurance, so for adequate redundancy, an aircraft with four engines is ideal.

The Il-76 has a large enough cabin space, a large enough load capacity, and a long enough endurance time, and theoretically this is the choice of the Soviet Union's best air test platform for aero engines -- the An-124 is still too big after all.

Gong Jianjun didn't speak, but Vasily misunderstood what he meant, thinking that Gong Jianjun was not interested in this "lame" Il-76-LL, so he hurriedly said: "Peter, you must know that the performance of the Il-76 is very strong, and it can take off with two engines under medium load, not to mention that there are three engines now, anyway, you won't use it for transportation tasks, three engines are completely fine......

Gong Jianjun's heart moved when he heard this: Lao Maozi seems to be in a hurry to sell this Il-76-LL.

Although I don't know what the situation is, but such a good opportunity to go under the knife, if you don't slaughter it hard, it will be too sorry for yourself, Gong Jianjun thought about it and said: "In this way, you ask your friend to prepare two spare engines for me to pack and take away, if you accept this condition, we will trade." ”

Two more engines?

For Vasily, of course, this is not a problem, compared to a large jet transport plane, two engines are simply inconspicuous, in this chaotic period, even a nuclear warhead can be lost, let alone two engines, but Vasily is still keenly aware of the business opportunities: "Two spare engines, right?" No problem! But brother, you have to add another 100,000 ...... to the price."

"Another 100,000?"

Gong Jianjun frowned, and after a while, he finally reluctantly agreed: "Yes, you get the plane ready, and I will go over with the money immediately...... Oh, by the way, help me find a flight crew and let them help me get the plane back, and I'll give each of them $2,000, how about that? ”

"OK, no problem, then it's decided," Gong Jianjun was so happy, Vasily was also very satisfied, and smiled happily: "Good brother, I'm waiting for you in Almaty." ”

After hanging up the phone, Gong Jianjun could no longer control the ecstasy in his heart, and picked up the phone and called Chen Geng......

……………………………………

When he received Gong Jianjun's call, Chen Geng was stunned: It's only been a few days, and Gong Jianjun helped find the plane? And it was one of only five modified Il-76-LL in the Soviet Union?

As for why this plane is in Kazakhstan, this is not a problem at all, the key is one thing: Chen Daguan didn't expect that the fourth child would help him find this plane so quickly, and he didn't say hello to it at all!

That's embarrassing.

If a foreign military aircraft -- even though it is only a transport plane -- flies into the border of another country without prior communication and coordination, the only result is that it is accompanied and forced to land.

Fortunately, there is still time! After glancing at the time, Chen Geng touched the phone and called Li Xueshan.

"You wait a while, I have to figure it out," Li Xueshan was a little skeptical that he had auditory hallucinations: "What do you mean, you need a transport plane to be an aerial test platform for engines, so you bought one from Kazakhstan, and now this plane is going to fly back, I hope the country will not shoot down this plane?" ”

"That's right," Chen Geng breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Chief, I won't tell you anything, this plane is not cheap......

"Is this a cheap thing?" Li Xueshan couldn't cry or laugh: "I don't even know what to say about you kid, can't you say hello in advance?" ”

"I didn't expect it to be so fast," Chen Geng felt that he was wronged: "There are only a few planes in the Soviet Union, and there are only five of them when they are full, I didn't expect to get them, my idea is to pick up the grass and beat the rabbits, and it is pure luck to get it, if I can't get it, I will get an Il-76 to change it myself, but who would have thought that it would take only three days to find it, and the other party is still willing to cooperate?" It's just a blind cat hitting a dead mouse. ”

“……”

Hearing Chen Geng's words, Li Xueshan was also speechless.

Although Chen Geng's words are not very good, it seems that this is really the truth, there are only five planes in the entire Soviet Union, so it only took this kid three days to find it, where do you say to reason about this......

"There were only five in the entire Soviet Union?" Li Xueshan suddenly exclaimed, he realized the importance of this plane, so important that the huge Soviet Union had only five planes!

"Yes," Chen Geng nodded, listening to Li Xueshan's tone, he knew what the deputy political commissar of the East China Military Region, who was about to become the political commissar of the military region, was thinking, and hurriedly said: "Chief, this thing is not a weapon, it is an air test platform for testing aero engines, and the reason why the Soviet Union only has five in its hands is not because of how high the technical content of this thing is, but purely because it is a waste to build more of this thing, and there is no need for that." ”

Li Xueshan was suddenly a little embarrassed, Chen Geng guessed right, he did think so just now, and wanted to see if he could get another one back through Chen Geng's channel, but he didn't expect that he was completely wrong.

Coughing lightly to hide his embarrassment, Li Xueshan said, "Since that's the case, forget it...... Cheng, I agreed to this matter, but I didn't say you, you kid is also the CEO of a large company, can you not be so rough in the future? ”

"Hehe...... Chen Geng laughed embarrassedly.

Runhua Industrial purchased a "on the verge of scrapping" Il-76 transport plane from Kazakhstan and returned to China for dismantling, which is not a big deal; unlike fighters and attack planes, which have obvious attack attributes, a slow-moving, unarmed transport plane will not pose any threat to the territorial airspace and homeland security of the Republic at all, not to mention that the above also knows that Runhua Industrial is engaged in aero engines, and this "on the verge of scrapping" Il-76 is dedicated to this job, plus Li Xueshan's face...... Under the influence of various factors, Chen Geng called Li Xueshan less than two hours before an official letter stamped with the seals of the Air Force and the Civil Aviation Administration was faxed to Chen Geng's desk.

Seeing this official letter, Chen Geng breathed a sigh of relief, and waved his fist excitedly: "It's done!" ”

But Gong Jianjun didn't feel strange about this result at all, how could the third brother not have any ability at all? Because he was happy, he was smiling the whole time when he traded.

Vasily also smiled, this time the business made a lot of money, but he came out and took a turn, and there was an extra $650,000 in his wallet (Chen Geng paid an extra 100,000 for the two spare engines, of which 50,000 went into Vasily's pocket), Vasily's mood was extremely happy, looking at Gong Jianjun's expression as if he was looking at the God of Wealth: "Peter, my best friend, can we talk about other cooperation now?" ”

He couldn't wait to make a lot of money from Gong Jianjun.

"Don't worry," Gong Jianjun waved his hand: "Can you help me ask your friend in Almaty, can I hire these pilots under him and the entire ground crew team who are familiar with the maintenance and maintenance of this aircraft?" Of course, please don't worry about their personal treatment, I guarantee that they will get at least 80% of the equivalent of the same position in an international airline. ”

The 80% salary for the same position in an international airline may not sound competitive, but in fact, as soon as this treatment comes out, it is enough to make the envious eyes of pilots from all CIS countries turn blue!

Now that the Soviet Union has disintegrated, the economic situation of all CIS countries is in a mess, the military cannot pay salaries, the civil aviation companies are basically in a state of suspension, and the pilots are all going hungry, not to mention taking 80 percent of the salary for the same position in an international airline, even if it is 50 percent or 30 percent, there will be countless people who will break their heads -- having a job means that the whole family does not have to go hungry.

Vasily blinked, a little incomprehensible: "It's not a problem, man, as long as you give money, these tongtongs are not a problem, but I don't quite understand, why are you doing this?" ”

"We don't have pilots who can fly this plane and ground staff who can maintain this plane," Speaking of this, Gong Jianjun was also helpless, he spread his hands and said: "What else can I do besides recruiting these people?" ”

Vasily laughed and patted Gong Jianjun's shoulder: "Ha...... Peter, let me tell you, in all the CIS countries, there is nothing that money can't solve, and if there is, it must be that you give less money, give me $10,000, and the pilots and supporting ground crews are yours. If you're willing to spend a little extra money, you can even take away the usual spare parts for the maintenance equipment. ”
