Chapter 1702: A lot of pressure (three shifts, one shift)

This is definitely deliberately misleading, how much space does 40 tons of fuel take up? The density of standard aviation kerosene is 0.78, 40 tons of fuel occupies only 31.2 cubic meters, but 40 tons of cargo occupies space...... This can not be said, usually the goods transported by air are relatively high value things, there is no doubt about one thing, in the air transport industry, 31.2 cubic meters of space, absolutely can not put 40 tons of goods, but put more than 40 tons of aviation fuel value of goods that is no problem.

But Boss Lin is very hard, of course he can't directly say "Vice Minister, you are wrong......", and then go through it, even if it has been reformed and opened up for so many years, but the idea of "hiding for the venerable, hiding for the sage" is still one of the most basic unspoken rules of officialdom, Lin Hongfei did not joke about his future, on the other hand, the vice minister deliberately came to find fault, and it was also an excellent opportunity for Beijun 200 to advertise.

"This ...... It depends on the type of cargo," Lin Hongfei quickly recalled the relevant information about the Beijun 200 in his mind, and he couldn't go wrong yet, "The fuel tank in the fuselage of the IL-62M occupies about 50 cubic meters of space, and when performing domestic flights, the volume of these 50 cubic meters can free up space for four containers for cargo transportation, and if it is an international flight, it can only free up space for two containers...... Well, when flying on a domestic flight, if there is not much cargo, you can't even use the wing fuel tanks. ”

On the premise of not knowing the size of the cargo space, wing fuel tanks and cabin fuel tanks of the Ludao Yir-62M, the deputy prime minister can only be confused about the things Lin Hongfei said, but the deputy prime minister is also depressed: he can't make a look of ignorance, so he can only nod with a smile, "That's good." Our country has finally developed such an aircraft, and we must carry forward the spirit of 'Dora Run', which cannot be wasted. ”

Lin Hongfei wanted to say that it was the spirit of "Dora Run" that led to the overloading of trucks after a few years almost became a stubborn problem in road transportation in the Republic, but after thinking about it, Boss Lin still firmly shut his mouth: Dora Run is the consensus from top to bottom in this era, and he raised his own objections? Lin Hongfei didn't think that his words had any effect, but it made everyone's boss unhappy......

"What the chief said," Lin Hongfei smiled and nodded, "We will definitely keep the chief's instructions firmly in mind." Actively fulfill in practice. ”

"By the way, Comrade Kobayashi, I heard that you are going to apply for FAA airworthiness certification after completing the test flight work?" The prime minister changed the topic and was a little curious, "It is difficult to apply for the FAA's airworthiness certification. The Americans have been looking at us with colored glasses all the time, are you sure that you will be able to obtain the FAA's airworthiness certificate? ”

"Yes. We have been actively preparing for this. If it is just a simple certification of the aircraft, we are very sure, but in view of the possible market impact of the North County 200 on the Boeing 737, we are also fully prepared for the difficulties we face, and we are ready to not get the certification for 5 or even 10 years. "For that. Lin Hongfei did not shy away from saying that in the 90s, if a domestic product could obtain the certification of a top international organization, it was equivalent to a child going abroad to be plated with a layer of gold. The gold content is a big drop, the original old-fashioned things immediately became rich and handsome, and even the common people felt that this plane was much taller, this kind of opportunity to go abroad to gild, if you don't seize Lin Hongfei, you feel sorry for yourself. Of course, Lin Hongfei did not shy away from the difficulties he faced.

"Oh?" Hearing Lin Hongfei say this, not only the prime minister, but also the present day has raised interest, "Say so; Are you convinced that your aircraft will be certified? ”

Lin Hongfei smiled, "Since it is civil aviation equipment, some basic principles must be observed: safety, high efficiency, economy, and high efficiency." It must be admitted that there is still a big gap between us and the United States in terms of aviation manufacturing and supporting industries, especially in terms of avionics equipment and systems used in aircraft and engines, and we still have a big gap with the West. ”

"Not bad." Now he bowed slightly, and he became more and more interested in what Lin Hongfei said.

"So in my vision, like the North County 100, the North County 200 is also a high and low match, customers can choose the United States' advanced, modern avionics equipment and engines, or our own, reliable, durable and relatively inexpensive avionics equipment and engines according to their own strength and needs...... Because a considerable part of the equipment needs to be imported from the United States, it is possible for us to obtain an FAA airworthiness certificate. ”

I see! All the leaders understood Lin Hongfei's plan: this kid didn't expect the Americans to treat the North County 200 fairly and justly, nor did he expect Boeing to not stumble in it, but the airworthiness certification work of the North County 200 is very important for Honeywell and Rockwell. Collins and other avionics suppliers, for General Electric, Pratt. Aero-engine suppliers such as Whitney are in a position to resist pressure from Boeing and McDonnell Douglas to some extent, which makes airworthiness certification possible...... Even if it's just for their own benefit, these avionics providers and engine providers will help coordinate it.

But again, they will not exert as much effort to maintain their position and relationship with Boeing, so it is likely to create a playful stalemate: the airworthiness certification has been going on for several years, and the airworthiness certificate has not been obtained, but again, the FAA will not say what exactly is wrong with the aircraft, only that the aircraft needs further testing......

Maybe it will take seven or eight years to test.

As for whether to obtain the certification certificate or continue to test after seven or eight years, it depends on everyone's ability to play the game, maybe it is to continue to test for seven or eight years, maybe it is possible to get the airworthiness certificate, who dares to guarantee these?

As for the question of whether they can enter the U.S. aircraft market after the airworthiness certificate, everyone actually doesn't care too much: Airbus aircraft have basically obtained the FAA airworthiness certification, but their Airbus planes still can't be sold in the U.S. market? Why can't you sell it? It's not about Boeing and McEing yet. What is the result of government PR and the public relations network that has been formed over the years?

Since Airbus has not been able to enter the US market, everyone's hearts are naturally calm: Boeing and Airbus regard the Americas as their own reserves, and Airbus regards Europe as their own backyard. As long as the North County 100 and the North County 200 are competitive, then we will see the civil aviation field of the Republic as our own garage and nothing: our country has more than a billion people, with this self-reserved land, we bargain with Europeans and Americans for an exchange of interests.

As for the issue of flying international flights without obtaining an FAA airworthiness certificate, the question is actually very simple: China and the United States have signed an airworthiness agreement.

"Very good, very good, you can have this confidence, this is good," now smiling and bowing his head, looking at Lin Hongfei's eyes, he is getting more and more satisfied. He encouraged, "Xiaolin, the skies of our country are full of foreign passenger planes, and even our old men who visit abroad are all Boeing planes, which is a shame for our country's aviation industry." After your aircraft completes our own airworthiness certification work, the country's special plane will be replaced. ”

What the? Today has openly promised to wait for the North County 200 to complete the type certification work of the General Administration of Civil Aviation. Swap the current chairman's Boeing 707 for the North County 200?

Today's words come out. Countless people present were frightened: as the head of state, the selection of a special plane must be strictly inspected to ensure that the aircraft is safe and reliable, how can it be possible to change the model at will?

True, for quite a long time before, the Il-62M was also a special aircraft for the state leaders of the republic. And it is one of the only large special aircraft, which has never had any flight accidents, and when it comes to calculations, the North County 200 is a highly modern and improved version of the Il-62M. There is no problem with being a FΓΌhrer.

But the truth is that it doesn't fly for ten or eight years, and after a period of testing, this plane will be used as a special plane for the head of state? This is simply a joke on the lives of the country's leaders!

"Chief, no, this matter needs to be considered again......

"Leader, the development of Beijun 200 needs support, but in the selection of special aircraft, there are still more things to consider......

For a while, there were voices urging the present to abandon the idea.

For these voices, he turned a deaf ear today, and looked at Lin Hongfei with a smile, "Comrade Xiaolin, what do you think?" ”

"Chief, you are putting pressure on us," Lin Hongfei smiled bitterly, "This is a support for our work, an affirmation of our efforts, and a spur to us, you want to use the Beijun 200 as a special plane, which is of course our great honor, but now, we can't find any excuse at all, no matter what, we desperately want to make the Beijun 200 perfect in terms of safety." ”

"Hmmm......"

Hearing Lin Hongfei's painstaking words, everyone was stunned: Is there still such a meaning in today's words?

"Then you guys just do a good job, okay?" He smiled very proudly today, and even patted Lin Hongfei on the shoulder, "Comrade Xiaolin, don't live up to the expectations of D and the country." ”

PS: It's the last day of March, as of press time, we ranked 76th with 352 monthly passes, which is an unprecedented good result for "The Family", it stands to reason that the millennium seems to be satisfied, and it is absolutely impossible to fall out of the top 100 by lying down and eating the old book, but ...... No!

The millennium wants to rush again, to see how far we can go, and whether we can go a little further, a little further?

Brothers, at this time, the millennium needs everyone's help, please rummage through your small bags and see if there are still missing monthly passes that have not been cast? If there is, give the brazen millennium.

Well, today is still working hard for three more. (To be continued......)
