Chapter 701 The First Jet Passenger Plane (Second Update. 5000 words)

The prototype of this aircraft is the 550 model business jet launched by Gulfstream in 2003, which is hailed as the most successful business jet.

It is also a medium- and long-distance business jet that can fly directly from Kyoto to Los Angeles, Australia or Europe, with a range of more than 11,000 kilometers.

It can accommodate 16 people, a maximum of 18 people, and has three temperature zones. In addition, it uses a unique air pressure system.

It can ensure that the pressure in the cabin is at an altitude of 1,800 meters, while other aircraft can only ensure the air pressure at an altitude of about 2,400 meters.

This is why some people feel uncomfortable when flying on an airplane, because of the pressure in the cabin.

So this business jet is particularly comfortable for people to sit in.

Of course, if someone is not sensitive to air pressure, they will not feel it, just like some people are fine when they go to high altitudes, but some feel uncomfortable when they reach an altitude of 2,000 meters or 3,000 meters.

However, this kind of enclosed space is more sensitive to air pressure.

The maximum ceiling altitude can reach 15,000 meters, and the flight speed can reach more than 1,000 kilometers per hour.

Of course, this aircraft also adheres to the design of Gulfstream, that is, it looks good.

Of course, the various systems on this private aircraft manufactured by Liu Hai at this time are not as powerful as the original model, such as the visual enhancement system and the assisted driving system.

However, the modified space Liu Hai has left, and this aircraft is believed to be able to be modified for decades.

Although it is a private business jet, the assembly process is still very cumbersome.

Because it is necessary to assemble and test while developing the production process.

Now the entire aircraft has not yet come out, but there are already many orders.

Moreover, this aircraft has also launched a special service, that is, an exclusive customization service, and the owner of the aircraft can design the layout of the cabin independently.

That is, where is the reception room, where is the lounge, and where is the bathroom.

You can even install a big bed.

The cabin is 2.24 meters wide and 29.4 meters long, and the usable area is close to 50 square meters.

At the end of the month, Ni Nan formally submitted a plan to replace the optical cable with the electric cable for the railway network communication construction. Liu Hai spent nearly 200 million US dollars to purchase advanced foreign optical fiber production technology patents.

Mainly because these technical patents involve many basic patents, and the application scope of optical fiber is not very wide now, so the price Liu Hai bought is still relatively cheap.

Of course, it is not only the technical patents of optical fiber itself, but also the technical patents of other equipment solutions such as signal transmission, because if you want to make related solutions yourself, it may take several years.

If you don’t carry out large-scale civilian production, you don’t have to buy these technical licenses at all. Just install one for trial use, and no one will charge you for patent fees.

Of course, Liu Hai can be a little more rogue, that is, the gap between domestic and foreign patents, just like the pirated versions of our country’s operating system later.

Liu Hai is just for future development, and to give others a good impression, otherwise others will say that someone started his business by stealing other people’s technology. (Don’t think too much!)

Once this kind of name is attached to your head, you will never be able to wash it off for the rest of your life, no matter how successful you are in the future, no matter how you whitewash yourself in the future.

No matter how much money you make, others will just say "pooh".

However, in this way, the overall investment will increase by at least 50%, but there is also a benefit, that is, the subsequent maintenance and management costs will be reduced, because the power consumption of optical fiber will be lower than that of cable.

Because the cable needs current to carry the signal, while the optical cable uses light to carry the signal.

However, because of the change of optical cable, a lot of laboratories have been added, including wavelength division multiplexing technology.

This technology only used two wavelengths in the early 1970s: one wavelength in the 1310 nm window and one wavelength in the 1550 nm window, using WDM technology to achieve single-fiber dual-window transmission.

The fastest growth of wavelength division technology was in the early 1990s, because at that time optical fiber networks began to be used on a large scale.

The railway department has no opinion on this change, but only needs to retrain construction technicians.

This is not a problem for the railway department. The railway department has this advantage. It is a separate and independent department with all kinds of departments.

As long as there is an order from the top, no one dares to disobey it, and there is no need to coordinate with other departments for land, electricity, and other things.

As long as the plan is made to build a substation in this place, it can be built quickly.

And there is another advantage for the railway department to build this network, which is that it is convenient for subsequent maintenance.

The railway already has line patrol workers, and once there is a problem on the railway, it is also very fast to repair it, after all, it is next to the railway.

And with the economic development of our country, more and more railways will be built.

And each place is quite respectful of the railway. If you offend the railway in any place, do you believe that the local specialty will not be transported out.

The railway department still does the preliminary preparation work to train personnel and explore the planning.

There is not much difference between optical cables and electrical cables in civil engineering work. Of course, civil engineering can only start after the planning is completed.

However, if the construction starts, it is expected to be in the second half of next year, because optical cables have not yet started mass production.

The fiber optic cable manufacturing was also directly authorized by Fenghuo Company to relevant domestic manufacturers, and then these manufacturers produced fiber optic cables to offset the accounts. Liu Hai did not share dividends with the manufacturers.

Of course, Liu Hai authorized two manufacturers, and the one with better quality was used.

Not authorizing a single factory alone would be detrimental to the future development of technology.

If another factory failed to meet the quality requirements several times in a row, the authorization would be withdrawn and given to other manufacturers.

Liu Hai also had no time to send people to these factories to keep an eye on them.

In September 1980, a major event occurred internationally, that is, the conflict between the Kingdom of Babylon and Persia.

On the first day of the conflict, the Kingdom of Babylon directly sent 50,000 flying scooters to Persia, severely damaging more than 400 military targets in Persia.

However, Persia was not to be outdone. After the King of Babylon launched 50,000 flying scooters, the Kingdom of Persia directly sent more than 70,000 flying scooters to the Kingdom of Babylon.

As a result, all the airports in the Kingdom of Babylon were destroyed, as well as many important facilities.

However, in terms of military strength, the Kingdom of Babylon had a considerable advantage and directly advanced into Persia.

The strange thing is that the air forces of both countries could not be deployed, and the ground forces fought back and forth.

It's not that the air forces did not want to be deployed, but the airports were destroyed and were under repair.

Then the two sides launched flying motorcycles directly at each other's airports every day.

Although the two countries have many air defense forces, they can't stop the massive flying motorcycles.

They can't stop them at all. No matter how dense the anti-aircraft guns of these air defense forces are, and how many anti-aircraft machine guns there are.

They can be broken through the air defense line by flying motorcycles.

As for anti-aircraft missiles, the two countries fought a wave at the beginning, but then they gave up.

Even if an anti-aircraft missile intercepts an air motorcycle, how can so many flying motorcycles intercept it?

Although the flying motorcycles are very powerful, the casualties caused are not very large.

It turns out that the flying motorcycles make sounds, and as long as the people on the ground hear the sound, they will run away quickly.

As long as the flying scooter doesn't explode directly next to you, it's basically not dangerous.

After all, the speed of the flying scooter is relatively low, and the internal combustion engine has no muffler, so the humming sound can be heard from a long distance. Besides, both sides have made arrangements in this regard and added a lot of observation posts.

The best way to deal with the flying scooter now is to increase the number of observation posts. Once you hear a sound in the air, call and report immediately.

Although people and equipment can enter the bunker, there is no way to deal with the airport radar antenna.

Persia and the Babylonian Kingdom swipe flying scooters every day to ensure that the other side's air force cannot fly into the sky. On the other hand, they increase the maintenance of their own airports.

However, the Babylonian Kingdom only entered the Persian territory in the first wave, and it was no longer possible afterwards.

Because no matter how many tanks there are, they can't defend against tandem RPG rockets, and the fight becomes a positional war.

Of course, with the conflict between the two sides, international oil prices rose accordingly.

Liu Hai looked at the private plane in front of him. After more than a month of intense work, the first small jet airliner was assembled.

However, the final assembly is only the beginning. A series of tests, including ground tests, fly-by-wire flight control tests, etc., will be conducted later.

Two experienced pilots started the aircraft according to the operating manual, and the aircraft began to taxi on the runway.

The two sides communicated with each other by radio while taxiing, and various tests, such as control system tests, were also conducted during the taxiing.

Then the observers carefully observed the reactions of the tail wing, etc.

It is unknown how long the ground test will take, but the flight test can only be started after the test is completed.

Liu Hai estimated that this process would probably take at least three or four months, and it is hard to say the longest.

Because everyone had no experience in the fly-by-wire system at the beginning, this could only be obtained through continuous testing and finally optimized.

However, Liu Hai has already built this framework. As for whether other departments can learn it later, it depends on others.

Historically, our country's fly-by-wire began with the bald eagle helping us upgrade our fighter jets. Of course, it was at that time that the bald eagle completely looked down on the fighter jets we produced.

Because the screws on the two J-8s were not compatible, the aircraft engineers of the bald eagle could not understand why such an aircraft could still fly into the sky.

At that time, there was no industrial standardization at all. Repairmen had to know how to handle parts by themselves. If you say the screw is small, just wrap it with hemp rope or something.

If you say the screw is big, just get a tool and make the hole bigger.

If it doesn't work, use rivets.

If it doesn't work, use electric welding.

If it doesn't work, just use wire to tie it up.

No matter what method you think of, just fight it.

But later, due to changes in international relations, the two aircraft that had not been upgraded were sent back.

Then we learned that Bald Eagle was working on the fly-by-wire system on the fighter.

Several leaders and leaders in the factory watched the plane taxiing and applauded after returning.

The ground taxiing test of the aircraft can be said to have achieved preliminary success.

"It seems that our country's jet passenger aircraft should be not far away!" The leader of the superior department looked at the jet aircraft. Although it has not been painted yet, its elegant appearance makes people like it at first sight.

"That's for sure!" Sun Aiguo answered as a matter of course.

"Let's wait until Heshun Aircraft Manufacturing Company is in order!" Liu Hai felt that it would be difficult to design and manufacture our own aircraft within at least 5 years.

Because within these 5 years, the main thing is to cultivate aircraft manufacturing talents and absorb advanced foreign aircraft manufacturing and design technologies.

It is already very good to be able to master foreign advanced technologies in 5 years.

Of course, it is possible that the time node will be advanced, because the technical personnel of Rolls-Royce and McDonnell Douglas are like chicken blood. They not only have to work overtime, but also ask questions if they don't understand.

Of course, this is also the charm of money.

Then everyone took a group photo in front of this plane.

"It's so beautiful!" Liu Hai took the photo back for his junior sister to appreciate. The junior sister was pregnant with her second child again. Looking at the smooth lines of the plane in the photo, the junior sister liked it at first sight.

The junior sister was also happy for her senior brother from the bottom of her heart.

"When the time comes, I will give you one, and you can see how you like to arrange it inside." Liu Hai smiled and hugged the junior sister and said.

"You should design it. I don't understand these?" The junior sister heard this and was moved, but she knew the ability of design.

"I will have quite a few samples by then. I'll show them to you first. Just give me your opinions and I'll design them." Liu Hai replied with a smile.

"You've been working too hard recently." The junior sister knew that Liu Hai was busy with the plane recently.

"I'm not very hard either. I just talk a lot." Liu Hai replied with a smile.

The first plane was assembled during the day, and a meeting was held at night to summarize.

That is, the problems encountered during the day should be brought up at night, and then everyone involved should understand how the problem occurred, how it was solved, and why it was solved in this way?

In fact, Liu Hai is very fortunate that standardized production has been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Liu Hai still remembers that in the first two years of motorcycle production, some old workers could not correct that problem. For example, if a part had some quality problems, the old workers would put it on directly if they saw that it was usable, regardless of the quality standards.

Fortunately, the superiors came to write inscriptions at that time, and the people in the factory no longer dared to do things according to their own ideas.

Now when it comes to production problems, no one comes out to sing high-profile and boast.

"Yeah!" When the junior sister heard Liu Hai say this, she nodded in agreement.

After the junior sister got pregnant with her second child, the teacher's wife came to live with Liu Hai again and hired three nannies, some for cleaning and some for taking care of the children.

The teacher also bought several old houses, demolished them and started to build new houses.

Liu Hai also bought several courtyard houses in Houhai. The courtyard houses are really cheap now, and they can be bought for a few thousand yuan at most.

Liu Hai demolished and rebuilt these courtyard houses, repaired the old with the old, and re-laid various pipes and underground pipe networks.

The people who sold these courtyard houses all went abroad. These people are considered very rich in the eyes of ordinary people now, because they can sell houses and various old items for tens of thousands of yuan in total.

Take out a few of these courtyard houses and let Wang Hongmei pass them on to her cousin. Although others did not take the initiative to ask for them, Liu Hai is not short of this now. After all, he has slept in the same bed for more than ten years, so he should have some conscience.

Although the wages in China have increased, for most people, a millionaire is still a legend.

However, the number of domestic workers is many times that of the same period in history, and the industrial output value is many times that of history.

The main reason is that our country spends money in too many places, such as railways, highways, ports and other aspects.

"How much does this plane cost?" Junior sister asked another question.

"The price has not been discussed yet, but it should be 20 to 30 million US dollars. Of course, it depends on the decoration inside. If more gems or more luxury goods are used, it may be 50 million or 60 million." Liu Hai said.

"It's so expensive. Our laboratory can't spend 50 million US dollars a year, so many people, so many equipment." Junior sister was surprised to hear this.

"These are originally prepared by a rich person. If the price is lower, they won't buy it."

"I estimate that the most expensive one may be worth hundreds of millions of dollars." Liu Hai thought of Emperor Entertainment Group.

In this time and space, Emperor Entertainment Group is extremely rich. The female hygiene products company and the facial mask company have a huge annual income.

This income does not belong to the royal family, but to Emperor Ying personally.

In addition, Emperor Ying likes natural royal blue, that is, lapis lazuli. This thing is sold by gram, and there are many colors in it, the most expensive one is called imperial blue.

How much does an airplane need, and there are also luxury goods inside, such as carbon fiber or Yunjin Shujin and other luxury goods.

This is just like house decoration, 100,000 yuan for simple decoration is fine, and millions of yuan for luxurious decoration is also fine.

Even if it is to repair a house in the countryside, some people can repair the house with 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, and some people even spend tens of millions or hundreds of millions.

Not to mention the Chinese-style fully imported solid wood house. Anyway, Liu Hai heard in his last life that there was a fully Chinese-style villa in Suzhou. It is said that the decoration is just 10 small goals short. The decoration inside is fully Chinese-style, and the pavilions and towers are all made in ancient methods.

"It's so expensive, so why not count it?" The junior sister shook her head when she heard so much money.

"Of course, we can't spend so much money on things we produce ourselves." Liu Hai replied with a smile.

"But where should we park this plane?" The junior sister said no just now, but she still wanted it in her heart, so she asked again.

"Put it in the airport inside our factory. When the time comes, we will build a hangar to park our plane. Then I will teach you how to fly a plane." Liu Hai hugged the junior sister and said.

"Is it difficult to fly a plane?" The junior sister asked with bright eyes when she heard that she could learn to fly a plane.

"Not difficult." Liu Hai can fly a plane himself, so he thinks it is not difficult to fly a plane.

In fact, flying a plane is often difficult. Many pilots have to hold a piece of paper and carefully compare the process when they start to take off.

Of course, these all require strict training, and absolutely no mistakes are allowed.
