Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 144
“Get on the plane, take off!” President Ma gave the order directly.
Xie Kai and Tian Li also followed on the plane.
This is the first time that Xie Kai has embarked on Yunxing. Although it is a test aircraft, it has no difference in layout from a civil airliner.
Behind the cockpit is the first class, and the back section is all economy class.
“You put the parachute on your back.” As soon as he got on the plane, Cheng handed Xie Kai and Tian Li a parachute from time to time.
None of the technicians on the plane took this thing.
“Don’t you all?” Xie Kai looked weird. “Although the plane only flew for more than 170 hours, I believe in the safety of the plane during flight.”
Xie Kai does not believe in the safety of this aircraft.
He knows that many structural parts that need to be manufactured as a whole are assembled.
But at this time, he can’t do this in front of the chief designer, deputy chief designer, and many technical personnel, even if he has the urge to carry a parachute in his heart.
“It just makes you feel less nervous. Without you, this plane can’t really fly.” Ma Fengshan said to Xie Kai, “We only hope you can experience this flight easily.”
“Mr. Ma, rest assured, I am not that timid. You are not afraid, what am I afraid of? Although I don’t believe in the safety of this aircraft, I believe in you.” Xie Kai told the truth.
In the 404 conference room a few days ago, Xie Kai directly pointed out the defects in the manufacturing process of Yunshi, which is a factual safety hazard.
Ma Fengshan and others used their actual actions to prove that their technology is trustworthy.
This method is undesirable, but Xie Kai understands that the whole team is on the plane to tell themselves that the safety of Yunshi is reliable.
Otherwise, Xie Kai will not be given a parachute when he gets on the plane, no one else has this thing.
“This flight experience is at least much better than that of the Straight-5, and also much better than the leaky cockpit of the Yun-8. The only bad thing is that the cost of a ride is too high.” Xie Kai smiled to hide himself. The inner tension and fear.
Silently prayed to gods and Buddhas all over the world to ensure that there will be no accidents during this flight of Yunshi.
Optimism is a good thing, and the disaster caused by blind optimism cannot be saved.
He couldn’t really put a parachute on his back in front of Ma Fengshan and others.
Even Xie Kai thinks that as long as Ma Fengshan persuades and persuades himself, he can borrow the donkey and carry it on his back.
Ma Fengshan didn’t insist anymore, which made Xie Kai a little disappointed.
It took only half an hour for Yunshi to land and take off again. As long as the personnel on duty in the airport garrison could see the aircraft, they saluted and watched the aircraft when the engine roared. The huge plane rushed into the dark sky on the runway…
“Don’t worry, you won’t fall!” Tian Li sat next to Xie Kai. Seeing him nervously, she gently held Xie Kai’s hand to comfort.
Her palms were cold.
Xie Kai knows that Tian Li’s heart is more nervous than him.
The situation occurred when she was sitting upright -5 just now, not because she was airsick, but because she was afraid of going down straight -5.
It’s not that Xie Kai is courageous. Before he was born again, he hadn’t taken a plane a few times.
In this life, the last time he traveled to Xiangjiang, he took the plane one after another, even if he was very calm, his inner worries were not alleviated.
Since the plane started taxiing on the runway, he was worried that the plane would malfunction.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
When the nose of the plane was raised and the nose gear was separated from the runway until the plane was completely up, Xie Kai’s heart was hanging.
The plane encountered airflow at high altitude, even if the stewardess warned them that there would be bumps, he did not dare to relax. My mind is always thinking about how to save my life in the event of a plane crash.
I always felt that the plane would malfunction in the next moment, and it fell from an altitude of 10,000 meters.
Unlike a car or a train, the plane has been flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and it will be broken into pieces when it falls. There is no possibility of surviving.
On the ground, even if something goes wrong, there is still a great chance of survival.
Some people say that airplanes are the safest means of transportation in the world. Xie Kai scoffs at this, trains are. Although there are many car accidents every year, the number of cars in the world is compared with the number of planes, and the proportion of planes is scary…
Therefore, Xie Kai is afraid of flying by plane from the bottom of his heart.
Going forward to Xiangjiang, his legs were weak when he got off the plane. Tian Li, who helped him off the plane, naturally knew the situation.
Taking a civil airliner, Xie Kai is so worried. What’s more, this Yunshi still only flew for more than 170 hours. The design requires that the main core components of the overall manufacturing are assembled and other technologies. There is no test flight completed and no finalized aircraft?
“Or, put the parachute on your back?” Ma Fengshan was sitting next to Xie Kai. Seeing Xie Kai’s face turned pale, his teeth clenched, he smiled and asked, “It’s not shameful, and no one will look down on it. You still It’s just a child. We are always worried, afraid of any malfunction!”
“We are afraid of failures because the project will be completely terminated because of failures, instead of worrying about our own lives.” Cheng continued Mr. Ma’s words from time to time.
“I know!” Xie Kai nodded, “I don’t want to be afraid. Maybe it’s because I fly too few times.”
Less frequency is one aspect, and the bigger worry is the manufacturing defect of Yunshi.
The design is successful, but the production technology cannot keep up with the design.
“From the first flight, Yunshi was the 131st flight test. It flew to the capital in 1981, and then flew to the Northeast Ice City on April 25, 1983, with a range of 1,840 kilometers; on November 4, 1983, it was 110. The maximum take-off weight is ton, the long-distance long-distance test flight with a commercial load of 15 tons, the range is 3680 kilometers…This year, we flew to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for seven consecutive times, and there were no failures during the flight…” Ma Fengshan pointed the flight test flight process to Xie Kai. Introduced. “Even during the flight, there was no emergency.”
Ma Fengshan remembered every test flight very clearly.
He hopes to dispel Xie Kai’s worries.
“Mr. Ma, I am really not worried about this.” Xie Kai felt that he was too courageous.
He always feels insecure if his feet are not on the ground.
“By the way, how do you think about the next step of Yunshi?” Xie Kai simply changed the subject. “In the current situation, it is difficult for Yunshi to obtain an airworthiness license from the Civil Aviation Administration of China, and it is impossible to push it to the civil market.”
The future of Yunshi is very important.
Xie Kai didn’t want Yunshi to be finalized after the test flight.
“Originally, I discussed the issue of future modifications at the beginning of the test flight. It seems that it is not appropriate. 404 cannot support such a large amount of funds.” Ma Fengshan said with some regret, “If the country agrees to our plan, we will allocate enough Funding, to complete the rest of the flight test work, it can be finalized.”
“If the plan of the Ministry of Machine-Building Industry in 1981 is approved, would it be possible to deliver 16 aircraft 90 years ago?” Xie Kai thought about what he knew, “You originally applied for an investment of 170 million yuan for Yunshi before 1985. There is also 160 million in circulating funds, a total of 330 million…”
Xie Kai really wants to know if the truth of Yunshi’s dismissal is as rumored.
Originally, only a handful of people knew the truth about all kinds of analysis, all kinds of arguments, and scolding.
Nothing is more real than the chief designer who asked Yunshi.
The Ministry of Machine-Building Industry applied for 330 million funding in 1981, but it was not approved. Later, some people speculated that Yunshi died because of 30 million funding.
Ma Fengshan’s face was a little embarrassed, and Xie Kai’s problem couldn’t be avoided.
At first he opposed Dongfeng City’s involvement in the Yunshi project, and finally threatened Zheng Yucheng and others to take over the Yunshi project.
Ma Fengshan and others are not clear about his thoughts.
“Of the 330 million, 170 million was invested in building workshops and production lines, and the remaining 160 million was used for flight test experiments and design modification funds, including engine experimental and research funds…” Mr. Ma did not hide.
Only half of the flight test mission has been completed, and the engine has not yet been fully developed. With only 30 million funds, it is impossible to finalize the design.
“That is to say, if we don’t make modifications and only produce based on the technology and design of this aircraft, the minimum investment is 330 million?” Xie Kai asked.
He wants to know how much money is needed to make Yunshi truly invest in the manufacturing process and put it on the market.
“More than that, these are just the cost of basic investment, design modification, and experimentation.” Mr. Ma said, “To enter the production link, one needs to prepare at least 20 million in manufacturing expenses. If the test flight process needs to be modified, upgraded systems, etc. , It may be more expensive…”
“So cheap?” Xie Kai didn’t believe it. “Don’t all Boeing 707 second-hand goods cost 15 million U.S. dollars?”
After Nixon’s visit to China, the country introduced 10 707s from Boeing for civil aviation transportation. The total contract value of 10 Boeing 707s was US$125 million, with an average of US$12.5 million.
Since then, 707 has been increasing in price.
At the current cost, the performance of the Yunshi is equivalent to that of the Boeing 707. If the manufacturing cost of a single aircraft is 20 million, which is less than 10 million U.S. dollars, even if the price is increased, it will not exceed 30 million.
“The production cost is not high. If the quality of the spare parts is guaranteed, the cost can be reduced. However, the price cannot be calculated like this. The development cost and infrastructure investment have to be diluted into the cost. So far, our large aircraft has been invested. It cost more than 500 million. We can say that the cost of this one is more than 200 million and nearly 300 million…” Ma Fengshan explained to Xie Kai.
“That’s true. But we don’t count the cost invested by the state, but only the funds invested by 404.” Xie Kai said, “The country’s cheapness is not used for nothing.”
The two communicated, so that Xie Kai didn’t start to be as nervous as he started. After diverting his attention, he didn’t mind worrying about the plane crash.
“Are you preparing for production?” Ma Fengshan looked hopeful when he heard this.
Only when it is put into production can the aircraft project be more promising.
