Since xifei is applying for acceptance, it must be prepared. The big brother is here, and that is a warm welcome.
"Welcome Big Brother, is Big Brother here to place an order?" Xifei looked at Big Brother with a big head, feeling tired. The short- and medium-range passenger planes were sold out, but he only made money for the engine.
The rest was taken away by Big Brother, and I must feel uncomfortable. You know how expensive a plane is? What is the core technology of an aircraft is the engine.
"Let's talk about this, let's talk about it, I heard that you have accepted an engine here, can we open our eyes?" Big Brother also asked directly.
"This won't work. It's still in the experimental stage. There is no way to mass-produce it. Now we keep all the technology secret from the outside world." The big head of Xifei said immediately.
"I can't even look at it. I read the documents posted above. This engine is still top-notch. In terms of parameters, is it used on some big aircraft?" Of course the big brother doesn't believe it, just like you Xifei , there must be something hiding from us, making small moves behind our backs.
"No, really not. We have been working on this engine for many years, and only recently did we have a clue. Some time ago we were busy with rocket engines..."
"Walk, eat, eat, whoever comes is a guest."
"It's just... let's talk about it after dinner."
It doesn't matter if the big brother and the others eat, they drink too much after eating and drinking. When they woke up, they were sent back to the big brother by xifei. The sender also said, you are drunk and want to go home all the time , Going home, our xifei has nothing to do...
The faces of the people at Big Brother are all green, I believe you are a ghost, but there is no evidence now, what can you do?
The two big heads on Xifei's side were also relieved to see the person being sent away.
He Gui didn't know what happened at xifei. He worked hard for more than a month before he basically finished the interior. The main reason is that there are too many things in the interior, and there are two driving modes, one is telex , one is manual, so you need to test all these internal things several times.
After the interior is completed, the outer wing skin, fuselage skin, and tail rudder are expected to take nearly half a month.
The two big heads of xifei are very satisfied with the progress. Although more than two months is a long time for He Gui, but for the big heads of xifei, two months is nothing, and a year or a half is not too much. Large wide-body airliner.
The data accepted by the expert group is world-class. In fact, there is another meaning. It is not as good as the most advanced foreign countries. However, there are only two companies that can manufacture this kind of aircraft.
These two companies have begun to fail, and large wide-body airliners are no longer the mainstream, so now there are three companies that can manufacture them, and it is true that they are world-class.
Of course, there is a gap, but it's not too big. After all, the development of aircraft engines has not been very fast in recent years.
In fact, it is the result of monopoly, and when a machine reaches a certain point, it will be difficult to improve it unless there are other external substances involved.
And it doesn't necessarily mean that the best market acceptance will be high. As a civil aviation airliner, profitability is the most important thing, that is to say, cost-effectiveness.
Get a 10 billion plane, how much more fuel-efficient is it? Only in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse can you earn back?
The same is true for the same car, depending on the price-performance ratio, even if he gives you the right to use a luxury car for ten or eight years, would you use it?
Of course not, not to mention the maintenance of this thing, most families can't afford the fuel costs, let alone in case of accident, many tens of millions of luxury car insurance are not for sale...
As an operational nature, it is impossible to say that it has too strong attributes. It is not a question of whether it can be achieved, but whether someone buys it. My airline has been working for decades, and the planes are all scrapped, but the result has not yet paid back?
Large wide-body airliners are also not accepted because of profitability issues. In fact, another point is that they are too expensive. If this thing costs billions, how long will it take to pay back? How many billions are lost to the bank every year?
Of course, it can be paid in installments, leasing, but is it sure that others will not make a lot of money by paying in installments?
He Gui's hard work was noticed by the two big bosses in Xifei, and the two big bosses naturally tried their best to get what He Gui wanted. '
In fact, things like Mars rovers and lunar rovers, in the eyes of the two big heads, are not as confidential as wide-body airliners or large transport aircraft.
Because the application scenarios of this thing are too narrow, it can only be used on the moon and Mars, and the lunar rover may not necessarily be used on Mars.
The Mars rover and the lunar rover are not difficult. The difficulty is to safely send these two things to Mars and the moon.
This is the difficulty. You must know that there is a maximum and minimum distance from the earth to the moon and Mars.
The farthest distance from the earth to Mars is 400 million kilometers, and the closest distance is 50 million kilometers, so when to launch and when to go to Mars is the shortest distance, and so on.
The aircraft is mostly completed, and the two engines are sent under the wings for final installation, and the construction is considered complete after installation.
He Gui has also been extremely busy these days, mainly because he has to watch everywhere.
"Report to the commander-in-chief that the engine-engine-machine on the right wing has been installed and passed the inspection."
"Report to the commander-in-chief, the engine-engine-machine on the left wing has been installed and passed the inspection." The person in charge of the commander-in-chief is Xifei's factory director, so He Gui can't take this job.
"I announce that our factory's first wide-body airliner has been assembled successfully." The director of Xifei was also trembling with excitement.
Crash!
"Bonuses will be given to each project team, and holidays will be given." The factory manager immediately added.
There are still things to do next, the assembly of each project team has been completed, the following is the flight system, which has to go through a series of tests, and He Gui will act as the main force.
"The wing is operating normally." He Gui is in the pilot's seat. This is the power-on test. The skin of the aircraft has not been painted yet. This thing will not be painted for the time being. In case there is anything that needs to be checked, a certain part of the mask needs to be disassembled. Pi, He Gui is operating inside, and people outside are watching the wings and so on.
"The tail rudder is operating normally." He Gui also has a camera here, watching the tail rudder start to swing left and right, up and down under his control.
Then it is to simulate various flight attitudes to see if the aircraft wings and various parts are normal.
The two big heads of Xifei were walking back and forth in the cabin, feeling in their hearts: It's really nice, it's really big.
This large wide-body passenger plane can be converted into a cargo plane in the future. The plan is ready-made. A large wide-body passenger plane cannot be used as a passenger plane, but it is very popular as a cargo plane because of its large load capacity and large cabin. You must know the cargo transported by air in general. It is not a very dense thing. The warehouses of other cargo planes are full, and the weight limit has not been reached. The warehouse capacity of wide-body passenger planes is much larger than your average, and the cargo capacity is large.
Especially with the growing demand for air cargo….
This test has a process, and the plane is jacked up with a platform in the middle, and then the landing gear is tested.
Strictly follow the procedures, although He Gui knows that there is nothing wrong with the flight system, but he is not sure if there is a problem during assembly.
There are also static tests, including various systems, such as the air conditioning system, lighting system, charging system, etc. of the entire aircraft, which must be operated for a long time.
Also, this kind of aircraft is generally used for intercontinental voyages, and it is easy to fly for more than ten hours. At least how many hours of continuous testing must be passed before it is qualified.
"Teacher He, the next step is the ground test?" The big head of Xifei saw that the test was going on step by step, and finally the ground test was going to be carried out.
"Well, why don't I stop the test, and you guys do it yourself?" He Gui nodded, and indeed wanted to leave, this stuff took a lot of time.
"Mr. He, you know the flight system best. Why don't you take a test pilot with you for a few more days?" Xifei wants He Gui to leave, but the test pilot doesn't know much about the entire flight system. Just in case...
Although the flight system of this large wide-body airliner is similar to that of short- and medium-range airliners, there must be a difference. After all, this thing needs to seat more than 100 people.
"That's fine, it's not bad for a few days." He Gui knew that many times when something happened to the plane, it was actually because the pilot didn't know much about the entire flight control system.
There have been too many things happening for this reason in history. Sometimes a button is in the wrong order, which will cause big troubles. For example, in the B2 that crashed in Guam, because the rain sensor was wet, it had to be dehumidified first, and then The sensor was activated, but the pilot first activated the sensor and then dehumidified, causing several parameters to be incorrect, and then fell to the ground before flying.
Xifei has been in the limelight in recent years. The Rockets just came out last year, and the whole world is watching that guy.
Just today, many people realized that something was wrong, because the longest runway was repeatedly cleared, and the number of guard posts around it increased significantly.
"Won't there be something else coming out of this?"
"I don't know, haven't you seen the report?"
"It should be. The longest runway is generally not used. It is 4.5 kilometers long."
"Xifei can't be so fast, it only got a rocket last year, which disrupted the world's commercial satellite launch market."
"Hey, what's the matter? Who made them charge so much? Several foreign commercial satellite launch companies have gone bankrupt."
"The price is too ruthless. If you buy a package, you will get 30% off the market price."
"The key is that people don't talk about price cuts, they just talk about discounts. Now many foreign companies are queuing up to launch satellites here."
"This is for sure. Many satellite companies have increased their R&D investment in small satellites."
"Actually, it's still a monopoly. Now Aramco, Europe, and the North are about to launch repeated rocket launches."
"That's right. In the past, these were the only companies that could launch satellites. Everyone was doing badly, and they didn't do any repeated launches. Anyway, if you want to launch satellites in other countries, you can find anyone at this price. It's a disguised way to cut leeks."
Who are the onlookers here? There are self-media Internet celebrities. After all, several Internet celebrities have become popular last year. Some Internet celebrities can twist their waists in front of a puddle for a day. There are quite a few take-off test flights every day, and each type of aircraft must be tested by test pilots before leaving the factory.
There are also some photography enthusiasts, and some people with ulterior motives.
As the sun rose, a silver-white plane was towed by a trailer in the distance, and traces of sunken rivets on the skin could be clearly seen on it.
"Is this thing going to be bigger?"
"I actually took the first photo of a large wide-body airliner."
"I woke up early this morning and heard magpies calling."
"It's really a large wide-body passenger plane. Looking at the plane next to it, it's very small in comparison."
"Is this for a ground test?"
"Sure, why is the skin so big and piece by piece?"
"This is more stable. The temperature difference between the ground and the air is very large, and the difference may be tens of degrees. There are also destinations, such as Sanya flying to the northeast."
"oh oh."
"It's actually a polygonal structure."
"Tsk tsk, xifei fired again without making a sound."
"Wide-body airliners are actually not popular anymore."
"You know what, this represents the manufacturing process."
He Gui and two test pilots came by car, and all three of them were wearing flight helmets and flight suits, which are not necessary for flying civil aviation aircraft, but this is not for keeping secrets.
In fact, senior test pilots are also kept secret, because they have flown many planes, and some high-level secret planes were also flown by these test pilots first.
Test pilots have very strong experience and are much better at handling various accidents than ordinary pilots.
"Xifei has really grown up."
"Yes, the strength of scientific research and manufacturing has continued to grow. These years can be said to be a blowout development."
"I just don't know when the bombers will come out.
"A bomber, unless it is a stealth bomber, is meaningless. Even a stealth bomber may not be useful. There are too many modern countermeasures."
"Yeah, bombers are not stealthy, and have no effect on big countries. The strategy of big countries is deep. If you take a step back, the frontier cities have been hit. Big countries just use missiles to attack your homeland. Unlike other small countries, there is no way. Assault on your homeland."
"That's true. Great powers are deterrents. Stealth fighter jets are enough. Stealth bombers are not as convenient as making trouble."
"It is estimated that Xifei is also in a difficult situation now."
"It's like this. If it is useless to make it, it will cost a lot of money."
"The key is that I don't know if it's useful or not. I'll only know when I fight."
While chatting, everyone kept taking pictures. He Gui did all the inspections here first, and came here to start cheering.
At the beginning, the amount of fuel was not much. The fuel tanks of the aircraft were of various shapes, and the fuel in each fuel tank was the same. The gravity balance of the fuel tanks was maintained through system control.
After the refueling is completed, there is a power-on self-test. After the power-on self-test is completed, the pilot will record the time when he turned on the flight log, and then make some records.
After the refueling was completed and other personnel evacuated, the flight computer self-checked and all parameters were normal, and the ignition began.
The engine has been running for a long time without any problems.
When the aircraft engine started, the huge fan began to rotate, and the test pilots closely watched various parameters, temperature, pressure, and so on.
Then start the ground taxi test….
When the plane began to taxi on the ground, the people around stood up excitedly, which officially started the ground test.
There are many ground test items, including engine power, fuel consumption, oil pressure, temperature and so on.
Then there are the reactions of various parts of the aircraft under various flight attitudes, and there are observers in the distance who cooperate with the test pilot to record.
He Gui was in the cockpit as the main pilot, and while controlling the plane, he gave instructions to the two test pilots on how to operate it.
Two test pilots took turns to operate, let the aircraft simulate various actions, of course on the ground, such as the reaction of various parts of the aircraft during takeoff.
After more than an hour of ground taxiing test, I returned to the refueling place and stopped for refueling.
Such a ground test will be carried out next time after each subject is over.
Then there is the load test, and there is long-distance flight.
With its huge silver-white fuselage, the other planes around it look like dwarfs. The silver skins and sunken rivets are clearly visible.
It became a hot search on the Internet in an instant. The big brother in the Northeast saw that xifei was so unkind, and he said no before, and it took a long time to pull it out.
The above must know that the two big heads of Xifei are now unable to answer the phone.
"Hey, congratulations, congratulations. Isn't it just a big plane, nothing special." The two big heads opened their mouths in joy, and talked modestly to the one on the phone.
"There are not many people, only more than 300 people. You also know that the market for wide-body airliners is not optimistic. I don't know if our investment can be recovered?" The other one also said modestly.
"Well, if we don't have customers, we can only make cargo planes. I don't know if the West will grant airworthiness certificates."
The two big heads watched the aircraft from the control tower to carry out various inspections, and then continued the ground test after the inspection.
The ground test is not only to check the parameters of various instruments, but also to disassemble some parts to see if the parameters are accurate, such as engine oil and so on.
Oil consumption is actually the best standard to measure all power systems. The oil color, temperature, and impurities inside, if the oil consumption is too high, the oil pressure, and temperature are not right, then there is a problem with the power system.
There are many ground taxiing test items, and it is not only done once, each system can be really tested at this time.
Sitting in the cockpit of the plane, He Gui could see that there were more and more people watching outside. There were not many people outside the barbed wire fence in the distance, but today they are all occupied.
Of course, Xifei also has the intention of showing off, otherwise there is a secret runway inside, isn't it good?
He Gui is still wearing a flying helmet to avoid being photographed secretly. You must know that some photographic equipment is very clear.
"Mr. He, do you want to do a flight test today?"
"Do another ground test, and turn on the air conditioner, and test the water and water, etc., and then come to the flight test tomorrow." He Gui said immediately when he heard the test pilot asking himself.
"Okay." Airplanes are weird sometimes, and sometimes some insignificant things will trigger a series of chain reactions.
Each system must be used more than once, because once this thing flies and goes wrong, it will be a lot of fun.
He Gui didn't have the patience to wait here anymore, he had a lot of things to deal with in 2004.
Anyway, this big silver-white plane has occupied half of the Internet these days. The main reason is that everyone has confidence in Xifei. This thing must be designed and manufactured by ourselves. This one, that one, all are assembled.
"Mr. He, these are what you want." After today's experiment, the two big heads of Xifei brought the information of the Mars rover and the lunar rover.
"Thank you, it's a pity that I don't have that much financial resources, otherwise I would launch a spaceship to play by myself." He Gui said with a smile.
"Hey, if Mr. He likes it, we can cooperate. Isn't Ami planning to travel to Mars, we can do it too?" The big head of xifei's eyes lit up. If he cooperates with others, there may be problems, but if he cooperates with He Gui, It's not a big problem...
"This is a good business, but I'll think about it first." He Gui naturally followed suit.
Xifei only made an announcement this evening:
The large wide-body airliner designed and built by our factory is scheduled to conduct its first flight test tomorrow, so stay tuned.
"Bah, this is shameless." A certain elder brother who knew the inside story immediately said angrily when he saw the announcement on the official website issued by Xifei.
"Shameless, shameless, this Chiguoguo is taking credit for other people's achievements." A person at a certain rocket launch base was asked for a large sum of money by Xifei, and he was still dissatisfied.
But of course ordinary people don't know this.
"Xifei, come on."
"Xifei, the backbone of the military industry."
"Xifei, come on."
There is nothing embarrassing about the two big heads of xifei. Anyway, this plane came out of its own factory. As for He Gui, of course it will not be treated badly. Anyway, the identity of Mr. He is kept secret, so leave this trouble of being famous to us. The storm will be more violent.
He Gui got on the plane the next day. In order to compete for the qualification to board the plane, the two big heads of Xifei almost staged a full-scale martial arts in the office.
After all, the first launch of a large wide-body airliner, although only a short dozen minutes, is of great significance.
The chief engineer and some technicians also sat up, anyway, voluntarily, and the chance of problems is not high.
After refueling, He Gui looked at the parameters.
"Tower, tower, No. 01 requests takeoff." Now the entire airspace of Xifei has been cleared, and the plane He Gui drove has the highest priority in the entire area, code-named 01.
"01 to take off." The control tower replied immediately.
He Gui skillfully turned on the buttons of the plane, the engine started to work, all parameters were normal, and then took off.
He Gui was still a little nervous, thinking in his heart that if something happened, he would dodge or not, what if someone survived after the dodge?
After officially landing on the runway, He Gui put aside all thoughts, focused on the speed and throttle, and when the speed of the plane reached a certain level, he started to take off.
Everyone else is sitting in the seat, and people must not move when the plane takes off and lands, so as to prevent the center of gravity from changing.
The plane taxied for 1,500 meters and took off smoothly. Of course, the actual take-off distance is different, which has something to do with the load and the throttle.
But the longer the takeoff and landing distance, the smoother the passenger experience.
"It's taking off!"
"Thank you, old iron, for the reward. The plane took off and it was a success."
"Yeah!" Everyone in the cabin left their seats one after another, extremely excited.
The first flight of the aircraft usually takes up to fifteen minutes, and it is necessary to go down and check the various components, step by step.
He Gui asked the co-pilot to control the plane while he watched from the side, and switched the manual system once.
The plane turns, circles, lifts off, etc. in the air. Of course, it will not fly too high for the first time, and just circle around here at a low altitude.
When the time is up, it starts to land. At this time, the silver body reflects the sunlight and looks like a huge silver dragon.
"Mr. He, thank you, thank you." The plane landed smoothly, and the big head of Xifei hugged He Gui excitedly.
"Hey, there are so many spectators over there, you can actually invite some people to experience it." He Gui said to the big head of Xifei when he got off the plane.
The big head of Xifei's eyes lit up, it seems to be the reason, no matter how awesome the outside looks, you have to look inside, right?
"During this test flight?"
"With the agreement signed, the chance of accidents is very low." He Gui said.
"Medium." The big head of Xifei thinks this is a way to maintain the popularity. After all, whether the plane will sell well in the future depends on public opinion.
He Gui bid farewell to Xifei with the information, and Gao Zhong flew the plane back to the farm with He Gui.
"Brother-in-law, I also want to fly a big plane." Gao Zhong looked at the small cabin, which was far worse than a large wide-body airliner.
"Do you want to drive it? I'll tell Xifei, just in time for the first pilot training?" He Gui asked angrily.
"Forget it..." Gao Zhong shrunk his neck, but the big plane looked really domineering, which guy... awesome, the visual shock is too awesome.
When He Gui returned to the farm, there were a lot of things to do. The iron grass also needed to be tempered, and then there were other things, such as super large transport planes, stealth bombers, etc., as well as Mars rovers and lunar rovers.
At night, xifei issued an announcement:
Congratulations on the successful first flight of our first large wide-body civil aviation passenger aircraft. In order to better serve passengers, we will select some people to experience the experience of riding a large wide-body civil aviation passenger aircraft. However, due to the confidentiality of the test flight We will review the applicants, and those who are willing to take responsibility for this, please send an email.
Then xifei's official website was stuck, and it took half an hour to recover. Fortunately, the official website maintenance team of xifei added several groups of servers one after another.
"I'll go, how many people here are applying?"
"I don't know, I guess the number of places is limited?"
"Have you found out that Xifei doesn't invite experts to fly on the plane, unlike some planes that haven't been produced yet and a group of experts come out beeping, as if they have really been on the plane."
"I just don't know if it is allowed to broadcast live. It's good to have a look at the internal structure."
"That's right, I don't know what's inside."
Since xifei wants to publicize, it must find some good self-media. Xifei does not invite experts, because there is no one more professional than He Gui.
"What, received 110,000 emails?" The two big heads of Xifei were also very surprised when they heard the report from their subordinates. You must know that the test flight of the aircraft is theoretically dangerous.
"Yes, boss, what should we do now, so many people apply?"
"Actually, there is no rush. We have all these applicants in mind. These people are our die-hard fans. Anyway, the plane will still be tested for half a year, and it needs to be tested for load. In addition, it has to fly here and there. It is really impossible to arrange. A small gift will do, but there is no rush to announce it."
"Boss, will this be a problem?" The chief engineer was still a little worried, after all, this new plane took off for the first time.
"Do you not believe in Mr. He's design?" Xifei's director's tone changed.
"No, no..." The chief engineer quickly retracted his neck.
Xifei selected some people who were not far from Xifei that night, including several anchors, and was told that they could broadcast live, but they had to sign a life-and-death contract.
Of course, these people are picked up by a special car, and there is a toilet in the car, so they can't go to other places, and they can take various photos in the car.
In fact, there is a barbed wire fence, but seeing the outside from the inside is completely different from the inside from the outside.
"Brothers, you read that right. I am the lucky one. I was notified last night. I was so excited that I didn't sleep well. Have you seen my location? I'm already in xifei. Look next door. This big guy." A certain anchor looked excitedly at the large wide-body airliner in the distance through the glass in the bus.
"Anchor 666."
"Awesome my brother."
"Several anchors, Xifei is playing with public opinion."
"I just don't know what's inside."
"That's right."
"Wow, our company is taking advantage of it."
"Moyu, I just absent from work. If I am elected, I will resign and go to Chang'an."
"That's right, probably not, the distance is too far."
There are more than 30 people in a bus, because there will not be too many load tests at the beginning.
After the plane was refueled and prepared, the bus drove to the vicinity of the plane, and the team leader allowed everyone to walk around the plane for fifteen minutes, so these thirty people began to take various self-portraits, and the whole network was full of them all at once. This news, the rest of the news is not good.
He Gui was also watching at the farm, and he was watching an anchor, and the anchor was speechless.
"Oh my **** guys, it's huge, look at this landing gear."
"Look at this airplane wing."
"Brothers, am I like an ant under this plane? Now let me tell you, this one wheel is 300,000 yuan, how many wheels are there?"
"And the cost of this plane, according to foreign quotations, is 3 billion, brothers, 3 billion..."
Then these people boarded the plane. When He Gui copied it in 2004, the seats were just like airline seats, and they were made of cowhide. The decorations were also made of wood grain. Anyway, they looked very high-end. look.
"My darling, this first-class cabin is amazing, it's just a single bed."
"Have you seen this? This is the main beam. The first class cabin is in the front, and the economy cabin is in the back. The privacy is better. But with this thing, there are only three companies that can make it in the whole world, brothers."
With the opening of large aircraft to the public, these anchors can promote more than xifei. The wide-body airliner itself has a large capacity, and He Gui's idea is to fly for more than ten hours~www.mtlnovel.com~ Get some small seats, It's terrible. To be honest, if you take a plane for more than ten hours, it's not bad for you by a few hundred, so the seat layout should be much wider.
"Brothers, did you see that the first-class seats actually have massagers? There are two air outlets, but it's a pity that there is no flight attendant." The anchor babbled.
He Gui took a look, good guy, in just over an hour, more than one million people have already watched this guy nagging.
"Xifeiyyds, don't listen to those **** experts."
"That's right, the anchor is making a lot of money, and this kind of seat is most suitable for long-distance travel."
"That's right, when I flew to Amei before, I almost lay down in the aisle of the plane. It was too difficult."
Write as much as you want. I originally wanted to write 10,000 words, but I couldn't come.
