Today opens a new stage in stories create MC-21. Ahead of the continuation of the flight and ground tests of the aircraft, the connection to this process of new machines, certification and deployment of mass production. Along with Irkut, a number of enterprises of the United Aircraft Building Corporation, partners from Rostec and leading foreign companies are taking part in the MC-21 program. This program brought our enterprises to a new technological level and ensured professional growth of specialists.

From the statement of the Vice-President - General Designer of Irkut PJSC Oleg Demchenko:

The flight tests of the MS-21 conducted at the Irkutsk plant and the long flight of the aircraft confirm the declared characteristics of the machine. From today, the tests will be continued on the basis of the Flight Test and Development Complex of the OKB Design Bureau. A.S. Yakovlev. Especially for the basing of the MS-21 aircraft, a new hangar has been built, in which a modern complex for collecting, processing and storing flight information, recorded during flight and ground tests, has been created.

Judging by the design inside (with wide chairs), these 6 hours can be comfortably spent.

Now it's not about comfort. The most important thing is that we realized that without our own aircraft manufacturing we will go nowhere! And the revival of AviaProm is a good indicator that Russia understood who is who, and what needs to be done only by ourselves, and only by ourselves!

Tired - lie down to rest.
To revive almost everything from scratch, is that what you are doing, "one, two"? Hard work is underway and most importantly, there is movement forward. And there is movement, there will be a result.

[Pete mitchell]

But the phrase still bothers me ... in the MS-21 program, along with Irkut, ... and leading foreign companies. and I understand that the years of devastation make themselves felt, but - Russia must build its planes, from a pencil of draftsmen to the last screw.
Superjet also has partners, God forgive me, so his promotion to the market is controlled by the US Treasury. I want to believe that the experience is taken into account in the MS project

Let's go without extremes. Consumer goods factory - at hand. It is necessary to make strategically important nodes and the entire military commissariat. There with Siemens turbines sank for the Crimea, turbines of such power are not produced here - demand is too low. But to establish the production of such turbines is unprofitable - it will not pay off, but there are technologies and competencies.

Aeroflot flies a lot of money on normal seats, a little victory and others like it on non-folding and tightly set seats. This is true all over the world. Airplane and cabin are two different things.

[Evgeny Strygin]

people seem to have forgotten that the plane in our beautiful capitalist world is not a means of transportation, but the enrichment of its owner.

[Zaurbek]

And when was he a simple means of transportation? It was always not cheap, but also scarce in the USSR. Right now there are cheap options, but a little inconvenient, but fly sparingly.

[basmach]

Yes, what ay As far as I remember in 90, up to Vladik 150 rubles, with my letekhovskaya in 320.

[Zaurbek]

The issue of making money was not the main business of Aeroflot ... And my mother (administrator at Intourist) received 170 rubles a month ..... Now in Vladik it costs 20-30 rubles ... this is about the average salary.

[St Petrov]

and now a ticket of 15-30 tr with a lieutenant's salary of 40-50-60.

so it might even be cheaper now, regarding the salary of the fly.

[Evgeny Strygin]

in the USSR he was just a means of transportation. I explain it in a simple, but nowadays completely incomprehensible to modern language - there used to be communication lines with those places where it was simply necessary, and now only with those where it was profitable.

Refueling is not needed ... long versions of the B-737, quite fly at 6-8 tm Anyway, the question will arise of flights to the Far East .. they will.

[NEXUS]

Rather, our airlines would have started buying it ... not a plane, but a song.

[St Petrov]

there are now 8 boards on the assembly,

The Irkutsk Aviation Plant, where the first flight tests of the MS-28 passenger airliner took place on May 21, is assembling three more aircraft intended for flight testing, and five production aircraft

[St Petrov]

The next Tu-214 aircraft with registration number 64529, built by the S.P. Kazan Aviation Plant, made its first flight in Kazan. Gorbunova (branch of PJSC Tupolev).
The aircraft was made in the modification of an air control center with a special airborne communications center (Tu-214SBUS) and is intended for the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
In accordance with the contract signed in November 2015, KAZ them. S.P. Gorbunov must make 2 aircraft of this modification.
This is the 29th Tu-214 built in Kazan and at the same time the 83rd aircraft of the Tu-204/214 family.

here's another) fresh today.

Nordavia and Red Wings merge into one company. The Reds are known for operating Tupolev machines. They have a solid contract for the purchase of several Yak-242

[KVashentcev]

And what engine is it in the end?

[St Petrov]

foreign. TsAGI only studies the model of the MS-21 aircraft with PD-14 engines

[KVashentcev]

It’s a pity .... Ours at what stage? Endless development?

[St Petrov]

Yes, it seems they’ve already noted as a successful project. tests are not a week to do. everything on schedule

The United Engine Corporation (part of Rostec State Corporation) has successfully completed the second phase of flight tests of the fifth-generation Russian civil aircraft engine PD-14.

[KVashentcev]

It is good to! And then I just read about the stop of the frigates. If the alien engine is also used on the MS-21, then it’s completely sad.

69 sets of PW ordered. so while flying not on ours

Have you done a lot?
Do you even have a concept about creating complex products?

Remind me, how many years in China have made an engine of this class?
If you recall, let me know, it will be interesting to know that they created them at all

At the same time, specify how many countries in the world are able to build such engines.

[zoolu350]

I did something, but I want to do more.
And here is an example of how to quickly create complex products in a complex, and not in parts.
The construction of the first experimental IL-86 aircraft, carried out on the basis of wide cooperation of many enterprises of the country that manufactured individual parts of the aircraft, its components and systems, was completed and on December 22, 1976, the crew headed by the honored test pilot of the USSR, Hero of the Soviet Union E.I. Kuznetsov, performed the first flight on IL-86.
In June of the following year, the IL-86 prototype aircraft flew to Paris and was shown at the 32nd International Aviation and Space Salon at Le Bourget Airport, where it attracted great attention and was highly appreciated by foreign aviation specialists.
Factory tests of the IL-86 aircraft were successfully completed on September 22, 1978, three months ahead of schedule. In the process of their conduct, the aircraft’s flight-technical characteristics were determined and the flight speed equivalent to the number M = 0,93 was achieved, the stability and controllability characteristics of the aircraft, which were also tested at large angles of attack, were evaluated at 11 degrees. exceeding the angle of attack established for the normal operation of the aircraft. Factory tests also allowed to determine the characteristics of the NK-86 engines in flights in various modes, to evaluate the operation of power plant systems, aircraft systems and equipment.
On December 26, 1980, the Moscow – Tashkent flight opened regular operation of the aircraft on the country's air lines. A new stage has begun in the history of the IL-86, which, without a doubt, has also become a qualitatively new milestone in the development of Soviet civil aviation. During 1981, IL-86 aircraft were put into operation at once on several domestic and international airlines.
Now keep on about the PRC:
The total cost of the program exceeds $ 8,3 billion. The C919 incorporates all the most advanced technologies available to the PRC. In addition, when designing, Comac uses huge computer resources, including the Tianhe-2 supercomputer - the most powerful in the world at that time. According to plans, Comac will produce up to 150 airliners annually (the overall plan of the entire program is to produce up to 2300 units).
In 2014, a shift in the first delivery date for 2019 was announced due to difficulties in production. On November 2, 2015, the first C919 prototype was presented to the public.
On May 5, 2017, flight tests of the first prototype of the C919 aircraft began. During a 79-minute flight, the aircraft equipped with CFM Leap 1C engines gained a height of 3 thousand meters and a maximum flight speed of 315 km / h. Flight performance was normal, the goals set for the first test flight were achieved, the Chinese manufacturer said.

Yes, the matter, in general, is not in haste-fussiness ...
I understand that it’s insulting and annoying with such a situation in the engine industry ...
Sometimes you really want those who have been in the leadership since the late 80s, not to mention the 90s and the beginning of the XNUMXs — just to root out ... So you won’t know ... This locust will bring much harm to the country. ..
Indeed, even now projects that torpedo more quickly and efficiently advance science and production forward ...

[Zaurbek]

Until a native Aeroflot starts buying planes with the PD-14 and a story appears about the operation of used cars, no one will buy a pig in a poke.

[Muvka]

He was already taking off. Finish it up.

[Zaurbek]

They test and prepare for certification, rather like that.

Aeroflot’s distance is quite acceptable.
But somehow he flew from Hong Kong to Taiwan with a local airline.
That was the number with my then not gigantic 188 cm.
The distance between the seats is calculated on the dimensions of local residents ...

They have like 20 superjets.
Maybe on other routes involved.
Places economy class superjet Aeroflot.

And you do not distinguish it from the look of it, there are a lot of them in the ShRM and it flies. I flew Moscow-Samara and Saratov .... Of the place where there are fewer passengers than on the A-319 ...

[jjj]

Aeroflot has a large fleet of aircraft. When passenger traffic grows on a flight, the side of higher capacity is allowed. "Su-95" in Sheremetyevo are based on some settlements. The bus to them rides about twenty minutes, going around all the lanes. Flying on a Su-95 is quite comfortable. And the thought warms that if the automation fails, then the pilots will be able to manually fly. And then foreign planes like to leave at the peak in automatic mode, when there is a failure of computer systems

The PD-14 engine was still boasted at MAKS 2015. There was plenty of time. all the more, the country did not start building from scratch; there were some developments.

[exo]

This aircraft, with our engine and avionics, can only be forced on airlines. Or introduce barrage duties on Western planes. And as soon as the situation in the world calms down, they will be immediately rid of them. Here, such a sad prospect for them.
Aeroflot operates the Superjet only because the holes in the schedule are blocked by Boeings and Airbuses. Saratov is tormented with the AN-148, which he received from "Russia". Let's see how enough they are.
Unfortunately, our aircraft (more precisely, engines and avionics) do not stand up to competition with Western products. And this affects the competitiveness of airlines in the world market. Plus, disgusting logistics and after-sales support.
If barrage duties are introduced, the producer will lose the incentive to eliminate the shortcomings of his "brainchild". The story of Tupolev 204/214 will be repeated.
And so, in the photo: it looks good.

You can argue with the Lord for a long time on this "topic." Today one thing is clear - the car flies. Yes, like everyone has "childhood" diseases. But there hasn’t been anything serious there yet. The PD-14 motor has been tested and it’s complex He knows that it’s big enough, in parallel there is the launch of a serial production. According to its characteristics, it is no worse than "imported" ones. Now we need a raid of the product, so soon several more MC21 machines will be added for testing. So far so far everything is normal. Import, of course it is, but this is not critical. The main problem of entering the series is the development of new technologies in the production process. (Wing, pipeline, harnesses, etc.), the organization of cooperation with suppliers for the assembly plant, and primarily with the Russians. So the plane in this case is only the visible part of the project .Something like this...

I want a video. And now. There was no flight to the planfinder. It does not track irregular cars.
