Chapter 1360 C929 Rolls Off Production Line and Test Flights

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. All walks of life are celebrating the National Day and making gifts for the National Day.

Guizhou Province, Anshun, 011 Aviation Base, Guifei General Assembly Plant.

At this time, the C929 domestic large passenger aircraft roll-off ceremony is being held.

Compared with the C919 domestic large passenger aircraft, the C929 is undoubtedly much larger, which can be seen with the naked eye.

With the production of the first prototype of the C929, it also means that the C929 has officially become the largest domestic large passenger aircraft.

The C929 roll-off ceremony and the first flight are a gift for the National Day of Guifei Group this year.

And it is obvious that the C929 domestic large passenger aircraft is very important, and many leaders have come.

Although Yang Wei is only 46 years old and is in the prime of his life, he is still the general manager of Guifei Group, the person in charge of the 011 Aviation Base, the deputy general manager of the Huaxia Southwest Aerospace Group Corporation, and a member of the Party Leadership Group. He is in an important position.

Moreover, as a real industry person, Yang Wei has made the development of Guifei Group and 011 Aviation Base more scientific, and has also emphasized technology, and tried to prevent outsiders from leading insiders as much as possible.

At the beginning, Yang Wei was required to be more technical.

Now, Yang Wei has higher requirements. In addition to being strong in technology, he must have management requirements.

Management ability does not need to be too outstanding, but it must be there!

This time, Yang Wei accompanied the leader to attend the C929 domestic large aircraft off-line ceremony.

Since becoming the general manager of Guifei Group, Yang Wei is different from the previous ones, that is, he has reduced exposure.

Because so far, the J-20 fighter has not been made public. As the chief designer of the J-20 fighter, Yang Wei's identity is relatively sensitive.

This is also a kind of protection for Yang Wei.

In China, there is a strict protection system for scientists. The more top scientists, the greater the protection.

Even some top scientists are anonymous, have no contact with friends and relatives for many years, and never report.

Yang Wei used to be in this situation.

The media reporters who came here are all official authoritative media, and they are reliable comrades who have withstood the test.

Although the C929 domestic large passenger aircraft rolled off the assembly line this time, reporters can enter the Guizhou Aircraft Group. Even if they see or take pictures, it may be confidential, which is naturally not accessible to ordinary reporters.

Liu Tao also attended the C929 domestic large passenger aircraft rolling off the assembly line ceremony. The huge C929 domestic large passenger aircraft is obviously much larger than the C919 domestic large passenger aircraft.

But there are also similar aspects, that is, the beauty of smooth lines and the same aesthetics of the overall design!

After all, for C929, it is the same generation as C919, which also makes many of them in the same vein.

The C929 domestic large aircraft rolling off the assembly line ceremony is very grand!

The aviation industry has several basic characteristics: knowledge and technology intensive is extremely typical; products and industries are highly sophisticated and comprehensive; military and civilian are closely combined!

The strength of the aviation industry is an important indicator to measure a country's comprehensive national strength.

At present, the world's aviation industry is mainly divided into the United States, Europe, Russia (Soviet Union), and China!

The military aviation industry has its own characteristics and strengths.

In the civil aviation industry, the United States, Europe, and China are competing, and each maintains a considerable market share in the commercial and civil aviation fields.

Although Russia completed the integration of major domestic aviation companies in 2006, it will also enter the competition in the world aviation field in the future.

One manifestation of this is in the field of business jets and passenger aircraft.

What Russia lacks is that there are great deficiencies in the field of business jets and passenger aircraft.

The C929 domestic large passenger aircraft's off-line ceremony is a milestone event, which marks that China's civil aviation industry has reached a new level.

And just three days after the C929 domestic large passenger aircraft held its off-line ceremony, the first flight ceremony was held.

The short time between the first flight ceremony and the off-line ceremony shows the confidence of Guizhou Aviation Group in itself.

But it is also true that the C929 domestic large passenger aircraft has been blown in the wind tunnel countless times, and it is unknown how many times it has been simulated using supercomputers.

The crew participating in the first flight participated in the development of C929 throughout the whole process, is very familiar with C929, and has rich experience in flying Yun-10, Yun-13, and C919.

These people are talents cultivated by Guizhou Fei Group at a huge cost, real talents!

Many people always complain that they are not appreciated for their talents, but in fact most people are unappreciated.

Real talents are rarely buried!

After all, valuing talents is a consistent fine tradition of the Chinese nation.

Those who have entered the system have been the elites of society since ancient times. These elites are smart one by one, and none of them are truly mediocre.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

If there are real talents, they will definitely be identified and promoted, because this kind of promotion has been an investment with an amazing return rate since ancient times.

In ancient times, those who passed the imperial examination would be chosen as sons-in-law from the bottom of the list, let alone now.

I saw that the five crew members were taking an oath. The test flight crew consists of five people, including one captain, one co-pilot, one observer and two engineers.

The first flight crew deployed troops like astronauts. In order to ensure that the first flight is foolproof and maintain the test pilots' various conditions on the day, in addition to the five-person team of the "first flight", a strong "substitute team" was also prepared.

After so many years of hard work, the test flight academy of the 011 Aviation Base has already formed a very complete talent training mechanism and cultivated a large number of talents.

The pilots trained by the test flight academy are divided into two parts as a whole. One part is the test pilots of military aircraft, and the other part is the test pilots of commercial aircraft. Although they are all test pilots, there are still great differences between the two because of the huge difference in the aircraft they fly.

And some of these test pilots are tired of the test pilot career and will transform, or transform into aircraft scientific research workers, or transform into air force pilots/captains.

Of course, some people will choose to retire and return to ordinary life, enjoy a peaceful ordinary life, be an ordinary person, and spend more time with their families.

Cai Jun is a commercial aircraft pilot with a total flight time of 16,800 hours and rich flying experience.

Qian Jin, who served as the first flight observer, also has 30 years of flying experience and is a meritorious pilot. He is currently the chief pilot of Guizhou Aircraft Group and the director of the Civil Aircraft Test Flight Center.

Everyone's face was firm, and after the oath was completed, they began to go out.

As they entered the cockpit, the door closed, and then the first test flight began.

In theory, to conduct the first test flight, two first flight drills, two taxiing pre-tests, low-speed taxiing and medium-speed taxiing tests must be carried out first. After these are completed, the first test flight can be carried out. It often takes six or seven years from the first prototype to the completion of the test flight.

But C929 will naturally not take that long. Only 5 prototypes will be manufactured and multiple test flights will be carried out, thus shortening the process. (End of this chapter)
