"Feng, you want to buy a plane again? But there are no cheap planes now, and they are not in stock. You have to order them." Kirilenko said a little embarrassed.
Now the people from Fengyu Electronics are helping him install a smart home control system for his home, and Feng Yu paid for it. Feng Yu asked him for a favor, but he couldn't help him, which was a bit ugly.
"Brother, you misunderstood. I'm not buying a new plane. I'm just asking if you can contact me for some second-hand planes? They're the kind that have about half of their flight mileage and are older in style. I plan to use the plane for logistics and transportation."
Feng Yu doesn’t plan to buy the new aircraft in Russia. In terms of technology and scale, Airbus and Boeing are more powerful. There are also cost-effective ones in China. Why should Feng Yu choose to go far away
It's just that the aviation industry in Mainland China is currently expanding, and old aircraft are not easy to buy. Feng Yu asked Ralph and found out that they could be purchased in the United States, but the people there were too smart.
Many airlines in the United States also like to purchase second-hand aircraft and modify them to make them look like new, thereby saving costs and attracting passengers.
In addition, Boeing has a lot of orders now, and many new aircraft are not available in the queue. If you want to buy them, you can't buy them. The market for second-hand aircraft is actually very hot.
Therefore, it is not cost-effective to buy it from the United States. At that price, it is better to add some money to buy a new domestically produced aircraft.
After much deliberation, Feng Yu decided to ask Brother Ji if he could buy it cheaply here. If so, he would buy it from here. I remember Brother Ji said that he had good connections in the airline industry.
It’s not easy to buy a new airplane, and it requires a lot of favors, so the old one shouldn’t be a big problem, right
In fact, Feng Yu prefers Russian pilots. Many pilots there are trained by the military and can deal with many emergencies and bad weather.
You can tell how awesome that country is by just talking about it. Ten years ago, there were still planes in Russia that sold station tickets!
That's right, there are standing tickets on the plane, standing tickets!
Of course, it is gone now, but it is enough to prove how awesome the pilots who came out at that time were!
Russia is the third country in the world that can build aircraft after Boeing and Airbus. Of course, that's because they inherited most of the technology from the former Soviet Union.
At first, the former Soviet Union was very good in aviation, but gradually, Boeing and Airbus took away all the market. Nowadays, Russia's large aircraft are mainly sold to Eastern Europe, which was the former Soviet Union.
Of course, China has also purchased some. The benefits of large aircraft can only be realized when there is an urgent need to transport a large amount of materials or people. Naturally, they are not used at ordinary times.
China purchases large aircraft also for transportation.
However, Russia's large aircraft inherited the shortcomings of the former Soviet Union, which was the blind pursuit of largeness regardless of economy. The energy consumption is high, the cost is high, the repair cycle is short, the interior is not comfortable enough, the exterior is not beautiful enough, the electronic equipment is slightly inferior, etc., so sales are also very poor.
But Russian large aircraft also have advantages, such as high engine load capacity, good material quality, durability, faster flight speed, and better overload resistance and air handling performance than those in Europe and the United States.
As for China, the technology of regional aircraft is already pretty good. The technologies that Feng Yu obtained from the former Soviet Union have been fully understood. In addition, there are still some aircraft for them to study. Therefore, at this time, China's regional aircraft are domestically produced. The luck series is pretty good.
But China is still not good at mainline aircraft, that is, large aircraft.
Although there are technologies obtained from the former Soviet Union, and even some expert help hired from there, the overall manufacturing process plan for the first mainline aircraft has only been completed this year.
Manufacturing has just begun. According to the progress, if it is slow, it may not be officially tested until four to five years. But this speed is already faster than in the previous life.
In fact, this model is just a small one among large airplanes, with about 170 to 200 seats and a range of about 4,000 kilometers to 5,500 kilometers.
Moreover, many of the technologies here are China's own. It no longer imports engines, propulsion systems, etc. from abroad and puts them into their own shells, and then says that they are developed by itself.
Although there are cooperative companies this time, China has many key technologies, and foreign companies are really just cooperating, including companies in France, Germany and the United States.
Russia and other Eastern European countries were originally the most suitable, but China has no intention of cooperating with them. If they find that this technology is very similar to theirs, how will they explain it then
Although Feng Yu paid for it at the beginning, it was not very honorable, and it could easily worsen the relationship between the two countries.
There is still a big gap between this aircraft and Airbus's large aircraft with more than 300 seats. Brother Ji didn't even have the super-large transport aircraft technology back then.
But this time the country invested a lot of energy. Not only did it set up the production line very quickly, but the manufacturing of the prototype was also completed quickly. After the prototype appeared, not only many domestic airlines purchased it, but also some foreign companies placed purchase orders.
The products made by Huaxia are very cost-effective, at least much more affordable than those made by Boeing.
Feng Yu thought for a moment and realized that he wouldn't need it for the time being. If he went abroad, his special plane would be enough. If the flight distance is not enough, you can stop for refueling or something.
However, after those Chinese airlines purchase these aircraft, some aircraft will inevitably be eliminated, and Fengyu Logistics can purchase them back at that time.
Most of the cargo aircraft in the world are modified second-hand passenger aircraft, which is economical and affordable. Moreover, many aircraft models are designed for both cargo and passenger transportation.
After waiting for half an hour, Kirilenko called back: "Feng, is the Tu-204 from seven years ago okay? It's that plane."
The aircraft Kirilenko was talking about was the drawing model originally sold to Feng Yu. This was not the most advanced transport aircraft model in the Soviet Union at the time, but it was the best Kirilenko could get.
The current Huaxia model is modified based on this. The main reason is that the appearance and internal design have been modified, and the avionics equipment has been modified. It is mainly this avionics equipment that has delayed China's public relations.
Because the avionics equipment was relatively backward at the time, and the Tu-204 subsequently produced in Russia all used avionics equipment from foreign companies.
China has spent a huge amount of money just to develop this, but the results are not bad. After all, they have saved a lot of time and money in other aspects, so that they can build a world-class medium-sized trunk aircraft at this time.
Of course, can this avionics equipment be used on other types of aircraft
A plane from seven years ago? That’s not very old. At this time, the price of the new Tu 204 is more than 30 million US dollars. How much does this cost
