Chapter 368: Aircraft Oil Leak

Bombardier saw that the plane was about to take off, and at this juncture, the plane gave up taking off, began to slow down and taxi, and stopped all the time, everyone could figure it out with their toes, there must be something wrong.

It's just that what went wrong, everyone is still not clear, and many people believe that it is likely to be a problem with the engine, because the engines installed on this aircraft are two turbofan 17 engines developed and produced by Tianfeng Technology Company.

"BOSS, there's a problem, I'll just say, Tianfeng Technology's engine is not good, this reliability is too poor, and it hasn't started to take off yet, and the problem is out."

"Yes, if something goes wrong during the high-altitude flight, it won't destroy people, it's terrible."

"Fortunately, the problem was exposed in the first test flight, and we will not be able to use the engine produced by Tianfeng Technology Company in the future, which is too poor in quality."

“……”

Most of the people on the Bombardier side shook their heads as they spoke, apparently thinking that the turbofan 17 engine was not good and that there was a serious problem at the beginning.

As one of the executives of Bombardier, the fat foreigner was quite cautious, did not express any opinions, and thought in his heart, maybe it was a problem with the engine, maybe it wasn't necessarily, maybe it was a problem with the aircraft.

Soon, a staff member in charge of the test flight trotted all the way over, and personally ran in front of the fat foreigner, the staff said: "BOSS, when I was about to take off just now, the crew found that the fuel warning light was on, the fuel consumption was abnormal, and the plane stopped urgently." ”

The fuel warning is on, and eighty percent of it is an oil leak.

Hear the words. Immediately, a foreigner said: "I just said, it must be a problem with the engine, but now it is clear that it is the engine leaking." ”

Fuel leaks in the engine, or lubricating oil leaks, are serious quality problems. The fat foreigner also realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately beckoned to Peng Jiangtao and others not far away.

Peng Jiangtao took everyone and immediately walked over, Peng Jiangtao said: "Mr. Smith, is the cause of the fault clear?" ”

It turned out that the fat foreigner's name was Smith, and when he heard this, Smith nodded and said, "Just now, when I was preparing to take off, the fuel warning light was on, and the fuel consumption was abnormal." I guess the eight achievements are due to oil leaks in your engine. ”

Peng Jiangtao's face changed, he was very frustrated, he didn't expect things to fail so badly, just at the beginning, there was such a serious problem.

Peng Jiangtao felt very guilty, and couldn't help but think of Li Tianfeng, and before he came to Canada, came to mind. Li Tianfeng gently patted his shoulder and said that.

"Peng Gong, whenever and wherever you are. You have to have faith in yourself, you have faith in our engines, you have to believe that our engines are among the best civilian engines in the world. ”

One of the best civilian engines!

Li Tianfeng's words echoed in his ears, and Peng Jiangtao's face gradually became firm, so. Peng Jiangtao said: "Mr. Smith, the fuel warning light is on, it must be an abnormal fuel consumption, but it does not mean that the engine is leaking, it may be a problem with the fuel pipeline of the aircraft." A fuel leak has occurred. ”

Before Smith could answer, he immediately retorted to a Bombardier person: "Mr. Peng, our plane is a new plane, how can there be a fuel line leak, this is absolutely impossible, it must be your engine has a fuel leak." ”

Peng Jiangtao pursed his lips and thought in his heart, aren't our two turbofan 17 engines new engines, our two new turbofan 17 engines have also undergone factory test runs before they are shipped.

However, Peng Jiangtao did not say these words, but looked at Smith, Peng Jiangtao said: "Mr. Smith, what is your opinion?" ”

Smith smiled, and then said: "Mr. Peng, there is a saying in your China that a mule is a horse that comes out for a walk, and we will know where the fault is after a careful inspection." ”

Peng Jiangtao said: "Mr. Smith, I can't see that you are still a China expert. ”

Smith smiled happily and said, "I am very interested in Chinese culture, which is broad and profound, and I often study it. ”

Peng Jiangtao said: "Mr. Smith, in this way, you also speak Mandarin very well. ”

Smith smiled and said in a more standard Mandarin: "Of course, I can say a little, and there should be no problem in communication." ”

Peng Jiangtao and Smith showed a few words of Chinese, and the sense of distance disappeared all of a sudden, and they got closer to each other a lot, and after chatting a few words, they got back to business.

Smith said: "Mr. Peng, we will arrange for people from both sides to immediately conduct a fault inspection to find out the cause, but if it is not good, we must put it in front, in case it is found out that it is the cause of your engine, we will immediately terminate the cooperation with you." ”

Terminate the cooperation!

Originally, Bombardier had a lot of people questioning the performance and quality of their engines, and now, there was an oil leak at the beginning of the test flight, and the cooperation between the two sides would definitely be in vain.

Oil leaked at the beginning of the test flight, and with such an engine quality, who would dare to install such an engine on a civilian airliner, if one of the planes was destroyed and killed, the consequences would be catastrophic.

The personnel of both sides, several engineers from Bombardier, and several technicians led by Peng Jiangtao, everyone quickly took up positions and walked quickly to the plane parked at the end of the runway.

Behind everyone, followed by Smith and other people from Bombardier, a large group of people, walked in front of the plane together.

This is a typical regional airliner, it looks, like a 70 to 90-seat class regional airliner, the plane looks more beautiful, with two engines rear, in the tail position of the aircraft.

Bombardier engineers opened the engine compartment and began to inspect it in earnest, and the first thing everyone had to check was naturally these two engines.

Seeing that the engine compartment was opened, revealing these two engines, to be honest, Peng Jiangtao's heart was inexplicably nervous and worried, worried that if it was really a problem with his own engine, it would be a serious consequence, not only embarrassed, but afraid that the cooperation between Tianfeng Technology and Bombardier would stop.

Peng Jiangtao knew that the company attaches great importance to the cooperation with Bombardier, otherwise, it would not have provided these two turbofan 17 engines for free to Bombardier for a series of comprehensive flight test verification, and set up a Canadian office with a relatively large lineup.

Bombardier's engineers carefully inspected the engine, and Peng Jiangtao and others wanted to go up to inspect it, but they couldn't get their hands on it for a while.

Peng Jiangtao and others could only stand on the periphery, watching these engineers conduct a series of inspections, and they were hole finders, analyzers, and all kinds of inspection tools, which were very complete.

Seeing this, Peng Jiangtao sighed in his heart, and thought in his heart, is it really a problem with the engine.

Smith had also been waiting for the inspection results, and seeing that the engineers had completed the inspection of the engine, Smith couldn't help asking, "What is the condition of the engine?" ”

One of the engineers shook his head and said with a puzzled expression: "BOSS, it's a strange thing, both engines are very normal, there is no quality problem, and there is no sign of any oil leakage." ”

Hearing this, Peng Jiangtao waved his fist vigorously, and a high heart finally landed, and Xiao Zhao Xiaowang and others next to him jumped up with joy.

"Oh also! Great, our engine is working perfectly! ”

"Great, great, scared me to death just now!"

Everyone swept away the frustration just now, and their faces were happy and excited, shouting and jumping, and the joy in their hearts was completely revealed.

Smith saw this huge reaction of everyone in Tianfeng Technology Company, and couldn't help but smile in understanding, and at the same time, he also looked at the turbofan 17 engine in the engine compartment, Smith was not the first time to see this engine, but this time, it seemed that these two engines were particularly beautiful and exquisite.

A middle-level manager of Bombardier next to him inadvertently noticed Smith's look, couldn't help but be slightly surprised, and also looked at the engine in the engine compartment.

To be honest, the turbofan 17 engine looks really good.

Smith looked at the turbofan 17 engine in the cabin, nodded, and then waved his hand: "Keep checking, be sure to check for failures." ”

Several engineers mechanically carried out the inspection, and the focus of the inspection was naturally the fuel line of the aircraft, and we know that the fuel is stored in the aircraft, connected to the engine through the fuel line, and supplied to the engine.

It didn't take long for the problem to be identified, and there was an oil leak at the fuel line joint near the engine, and apparently, there was a fuel leak at this location.

Peng Jiangtao finally had a chance to come over and see the location of the fuel leak, Peng Jiangtao saw that this joint uses the traditional fuse locking method.

When the fuse is locked, it may be that the lock is not in place, so the pipe joint is loose, resulting in oil leakage.

The lock nut of the turbofan 16 engine is almost all the super self-locking nut of Tianfeng Technology Company, and it is basically impossible to loosen.

Peng Jiangtao saw Smith next to him frowning, and couldn't help but say: "Mr. Smith, your fuse locking method is too traditional, take a look at the lock nut on our engine." ”

Smith looked at the lock nut on the turbofan 17 engine and said, "I've heard of this nut too, and in the future, this self-locking nut is also widely used in our aircraft." ”

Peng Jiangtao didn't think about it, he just mentioned it slightly, and he completed an excellent advertising promotion, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
