The more I think about it, the more I feel that my idea is good, going to and from the east and west coasts only needs to take off and land once in the middle, just take down and pee, but the time to and from the east and west coasts is very small after all, only a few times a year, compared to the fixed-wing aircraft that must have an airport to take off and land, the helicopter is much more convenient, there is a flat site can be, there is no flat site, the courage is a little more tied to the waist a rope can also slide down, completely realize point-to-point take-off and landing, The utilization rate is much higher than that of fixed-wing aircraft, and even if there is a real need to travel back and forth between the east and west coasts, it is completely possible to temporarily rent a business jet if you are troublesome to be a civil aircraft.

Benier has no opinion, since the boss thinks the helicopter is better, then the helicopter is better, the price of this Bell 2o6 helicopter is hundreds of thousands of dollars cheaper than that Gulfstream II-sp, this money can do a lot of things, and compared to fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters have a greater role for the company.

Lin Zheng and Benier didn't have any opinions, but Ernst's opinion was bigger, he absolutely couldn't accept that the fixed-wing aircraft that he had originally said had become a helicopter again, compared to a helicopter, the profit of a fixed-wing aircraft was much richer, and he hurriedly said to Lin Zheng, "Sir, a helicopter has the benefits of a helicopter, and a fixed-wing aircraft also has the benefits of a fixed-wing aircraft, compared to a helicopter, the interior space of a fixed-wing aircraft is much larger...... There is even a bed on that Gulfstream II, a real big bed that allows you to have a good rest on the plane, you can completely sleep on the plane, come down in good spirits, and calmly cope with your work, which a helicopter can't do anyway, I built yì You still saw the Gulfstream II and compared it with this Bell 2o6 before making a decision. ”

Compare and decide again? That's a good build. Lin Zheng decided to do the same.

It's just that this "good is like a stream". Lin Zheng fell into the Gulfstream II-sp and couldn't pull it out: over a height of 1.9 meters allows him to walk in it with his chest held high, and over a length of 7 meters, he can calmly arrange all kinds of things he wants, and the space inside is as wide as a room, and there are two Changsha in it, as long as you press a button. The sand has flattened into a comfortable bed with a length of 2 meters and a width of 1.2 meters.

Spacious and comfortable is, of course, the most important technical indicators of a business jet, since it is a business jet, who doesn't want to be comfortable? Compared to this plane, if the Bill 2o6 just now is a flying Mercedes sedan, then this Gulfstream II-sp is a small palace of flight.

There is a partition in the middle and rear of the cabin, and inside is a multi-purpose room that can be converted between the bedroom and the meeting room at any time, and Mr. Williams is definitely the most enjoyable and considerate of his subordinates. All seats have retractable leg rests that instantly transform the plush leather seat into a comfortable cot when the seat is flat and the leg rest is extended.

What's even more rare is that the former owner of this Gulfstream II-sp, Mr. Williams, did not make his car full of dirt and slag gold like those rich Americans, this dude is obviously a lover of solid wood, and most of the decorations are made of solid wood of various colors as far as the eye can see. It is much more comfortable than the decoration of local tyrants who look like all kinds of gold decorations at a glance.

After experiencing the domineering messy cabin space, Lin Zheng immediately decided to let the Bell 2O6 go aside...... Or when you need it and when you have money, you can buy a Bell 2O6.

Ernst, who had been paying close attention to the changes in Lin Zheng's expression, breathed a sigh of relief and explained to Lin Zheng in a timely manner: "Mr. Lin, if your aircraft utilization rate is not high, I recommend that you put the aircraft in the charter company offline time to provide leasing services, and now the business jet charter business is very prosperous." Large business jets like yours are very popular, as long as you fly 3oo hours a year, you can earn money that will not only allow you to pay bank loans and employee commissions, but also make some profits. ”

"Fly 3oo hours a year?" Lin Zheng frowned, "I'm afraid this number is difficult to achieve, right?" ”

Ernst smiled, "Mr. Lin, in the United States, there are many private jets, but there are very few business jets with a range of more than 5ooo kilometers, very, very few. As far as I know, almost all large business jets that offer leasing services can reach more than 4oo flight hours per year, which can probably earn you more than $1oo dollars per year. ”

"5ooo km?" Lin Zheng suddenly frowned, turned his head to look at Benier, and then turned his head to look at Ernst. "Is that so? But why did Mr. Benier sue me, and you sue him for a maximum range of 37oo km? ”

How is it possible to have a range gap of 15oo km? This is not only unreasonable, it is simply unreasonable, and if the international jet company cannot give a satisfactory explanation to itself, it needs to carefully consider whether to buy an aircraft from this company.

Not only Lin Zheng was dissatisfied, but Benier also stared at Ernst with an unhappy face: You sued me for the range of 37oo kilometers, and now you sue me for the flight of 52oo kilometers? If the boss thinks that I can't even do this little thing, and kicks me out of the company directly, you will compensate me for such a lucrative job?

At the same time, Ernst was taken aback by two people staring at him with unhappy faces, and hurriedly said, "Sir, I'm sorry, this is not enough detail for us, 52oo km is a flight with 4 passengers, no one carries a luggage weighing only 2o kilograms, if there is only one passenger and the corresponding luggage, the maximum range can reach about 54oo km, and 37ooo km is a fully loaded voyage...... This aircraft has a maximum commercial load capacity of 2.5 tons, so the difference between full and light range is quite large. ”

So that's the case, Lin Zheng nodded and motioned for Ernst to continue.

Big business is coming, Ernst is in good spirits: "Your plane used the MK511-2 motive before, Mr. Williams replaced the more mature MK511-5, if you change to the latest MK611-6 motive, add winglets, you can take off from the West Coast of the United States, do transatlantic flights, please believe me, I assure you with the professional ethics of a professional practitioner, your aircraft must be the most sought-after in the business jet leasing market, I conservatively think, It is also possible to fly 5oo hours a year. ”

"MK511 and MK611? What is the difference between these two motivations? Lin Zheng asked. He didn't know what the difference was between the two motives, but there was no doubt that according to the general rules of product naming, only the early models would have a lower number, and the later ones would not only be more technologically advanced, but also the combustion efficiency should be higher.

"It is mainly reflected in the thrust and combustion efficiency, the maximum thrust of the MK511-5 is 52oo pounds, the maximum thrust of a single MK611 is 6925 pounds, the maximum thrust difference between the two aircraft is 385O pounds, in addition, the fuel utilization rate of the MK611-8 MK511-8 is 25% higher."

Well, it's very clear, the MK6511-8 wins in all directions, if the cost of modification is not high, Lin Zheng doesn't mind modifying his aircraft, and this modification can even guarantee that he can sell the aircraft at a good price when he is ready to sell it in the future. "That means I can have a longer range if I change the motive, right? Help me calculate the maximum range...... Are you sure that this aircraft can be retrofitted with MK611 motives? ”

"Of course, sir, I assure you that your Gulfstream II can definitely use the latest mk611-6 motive, and we have retrofitted 2 Gulfstream II and 1 Gulfstream III with a new type of motive," Benier patted his chest and assured Lin Zheng with an oath, "The maximum light range of the Gulfstream II-sp after the new motive and winglet can reach 72oo kilometers, and if you want to do a transpacific flight, you need to make a stop in Hawaii for refueling, If you are retrofitting with us, we can sell these two of your MK511-5 motives for a good price. ”

Can it take off from the West Coast of the United States, cross the entire United States, and then cross the Atlantic? Lin Zheng admitted that this flight distance was indeed quite tempting, and he nodded, "Yes, help me calculate the total modification price, if the price satisfies me, I will consider it." ”

"Mr. Lin, do you use second-hand motivation or brand new motivation? If it is second-hand, we guarantee that the motive will be sent within a week, if it is a new motive, we need to place an order with the manufacturer, then it will take about half a year or so, and we have a pair of stocks here. ”

Half a year? This time is a little too long, second-hand aviation motives, aircraft this thing no one dares not to maintain on time, right? As long as it is the motivation for on-time maintenance, then there should be no problem. Having made up his mind, Lin Zheng asked, "How about the use of the two second-hand motives?" ”

Big business came to the door again, Ernst's spirit suddenly lifted, and his face turned a little red with excitement, "It has only been used for less than 7 years, and it is the motivation on the first batch of Gulfstream IV models, Mr. Lin, I assure you that the performance of these two engines is very good, the owner of the aircraft has always carried out perfect maintenance of the aircraft in accordance with the regulations, you can ask any professional testing agency to test the engine, I guarantee that there is no problem with the performance of these two engines, and there will be no problems." ”
