Chapter 456 - Paris
The Ilyushin-76 transport aircraft adopts an airtight cabin, which can maintain the same atmospheric pressure as below 3,000 meters even at an altitude of 8,000 meters (no need for a separate oxygen supply environment). Therefore, as a dual-cargo transport aircraft, although it cannot Compared with civil aviation aircraft that focus on passenger comfort, apart from greater vibration, the passenger capacity is still relatively good.
Lin Mo was glad that someone was finally able to speak to him. He nodded quickly and said, "Chinese, hitchhike! Like you, go to Paris!"
He didn't hide his intention to hitchhike at all. After all, Sukhoi paid for the charter flight, and he couldn't hide this even if he wanted to.
The old white-haired Russian man looked at Lin Mo blankly and couldn't help but ask: "Paris-Le Bourget International Aerospace Exhibition?"
"Yes!" Lin Mo affirmed again. He took a look at the other party's badge. "Senior Engineer" seemed to be a big shot in the industry. Fortunately, he didn't lie. Otherwise, he would have offended such a big shot. Two or three The truth behind the sentence was revealed, and he would most likely have to jump out with an umbrella on his back and use his own feet to measure his return to the country.
"China's 112 Factory? Or 132 Factory?" The old white-haired Russian man reported the names of the two factories and looked over with questioning eyes.
If you were an ordinary person, you probably wouldn't know who Factory 112 and Factory 132 are. However, Lin Mo, who studied under Professor Yan Guoqiang, a retired expert from the 611 Institute, has a certain understanding of the situation in the Chinese aviation industry because of his professional studies. .
These two figures represent a microcosm of the history of China's aerospace industry.
Factory 112 is the predecessor of Shenyang Aircraft Industry Co., Ltd.
Factory 132 is the predecessor of Chengdu Aircraft Industry (Group) Co., Ltd.
Regardless of whether Shenyang Aircraft or Chengdu Aircraft Corporation, which are currently clamoring for orders, are actually affiliated units of Aviation Industry Corporation of China, reasonable internal competition has promoted the development of several aviation companies to a certain extent.
Aviation Industry Corporation of China can completely represent the strength of China's aerospace industry and definitely belongs to the type of corporate monopoly industry.
The power of the trust is just a cloud in front of AVIC, and the subordinate units that have to use numbers to identify the factory name are simply domineering.
Being able to apply for and leave Factory 112 and Factory 132 means that the other party has a good understanding of China's aerospace industry and can be regarded as an old-timer in the industry.
Lin Mo immediately stood in awe and said: "I represent nds, a pilot of Defense Star Aerospace Company."
As for the background of "Dark Night", it's natural not to mention it, just try not to say it. At this time, the honest child will be in trouble.
While the two were talking, the IL-76 transport plane finally entered the runway. After taxiing for one thousand meters, the plane's nose was slightly raised and it left the ground.
Perhaps considering that the passengers were all exhibitors from domestic aircraft manufacturers, as well as senior experts, the pilot's operation of this IL was comparable to that of civil aviation, and there was no such thing as Lin Mo's first flight on the IL, which was like raping the sky. That climb elevation and acceleration.
The old white-haired Russian man who invited Lin Mo to sit down and chatted with him was Sergey Sulotov, a senior engineer of Sukhoi Company and one of the third generation engineers of Sukhoi.
Le Bourget Airport in Paris, France participated in the International Aerospace Exhibition. Sulotov was also one of Russia's technical experts on the field.
Now considered half an industry insider, Lin Mo was very happy chatting with Sukhoi's senior engineer Sergei Sulotov. The Chinese aviation industry, which inherits Russian fighter jets, has a common language in this regard.
Lin Mo's knowledge of aerospace expertise makes him more like a senior test pilot, because ordinary pilots cannot reach his level of knowledge.
The Russian agents sitting nearby and guest exhibitors did not notice anything unusual, and what they talked about was basically public information in the industry and did not involve important secrets.
According to preliminary information, the behavior of the pilot of this Chinese aircraft manufacturer is more consistent with the identity of the aircraft manufacturer's test pilot. Although he does not know his flying skills, the professional knowledge in his conversation cannot be faked.
The only regret is that they did not have the authority to capture Lin Mo. If they were tortured, they would definitely make great discoveries. However, they did not act rashly, otherwise it would be a disaster.
An hour later, the Il-76 arrived at a military airport for transit on the outskirts of Moscow. After a two-hour temporary rest, it will take off again and arrive in Paris.
The personal documents that Chen Haiqing arranged for Lin Mo were delivered to Russia via civil aviation from Beijing directly to Moscow. They were transferred by the Chinese Embassy to the Russian intelligence department and were delivered to this military airport until they were handed over to Lin Mo.
Until now, he is not considered a gangster. He is considered a serious exhibitor of Defense Star Aerospace Company. He is also listed. Although he seems to stand out among a group of old fools, those who don't know better think that Defense Star belongs to Sukhoi. Subsidiary or investment company.
The top brass of the Russian military also breathed a sigh of relief quietly. To put it nicely, it was called a special case, and at worst, it was an illegal operation. It was not until the procedures were completed that they felt relieved.
If those politicians knew about it, there would inevitably be a bunch of annoying accusations.
However, for the defense star, there is no need to use too many connections, that is, it can be done with just a few dollars. After all, there is only one person, not a company.
After the Ilyushin-76 transport plane took off, it passed through the skies of Belarus, Poland and Germany, and arrived directly at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, the center for international flights in France. It is indeed much closer than returning to China because it is separated by the Ural Mountains. Europe and Asia.
According to the designated route, it passed through the airspace of various countries. Apart from mine locks along the way, this Russian Il-76 was not blocked by any means. Although it was not a regular international flight and could not enjoy the free transit benefits of the Chicago Convention, it passed through various countries. After applying for approval in advance, Russia also obtained temporary passage rights.
Several buses have been waiting for a long time at the special passage of Charles de Gaulle Airport, and hundreds of buses are parked there, seemingly to receive the arrival of teams of exhibitors from various countries.
When getting off the plane, Lin Mo even saw the British company Rolls-Royce, which produces the Harrier fighter jet, and the Italian Finmeccanica company, which produces the Tornado fighter jet. The two teams also arrived one after another.
Just at Charles de Gaulle Airport, Lin Mo had seen many advertisements from aerospace manufacturers, large advertisements.
Overwhelming!
Perhaps it can only be described with this word that is comparable to cluster bomb covering bombing. There are banners, colorful flags, vertical flags, stickers, car body advertisements, and countless logos, big and small, and you can even see the domestic Shenyang Aircraft, Chengdu Aircraft and National Defense Stars. Wait for the manufacturer to advertise.
Spending countless amounts of money is not only a familiar face, but also a reminder to everyone all the time that I am the most powerful one and the product is also the best.
Every manufacturer participating in the exhibition knows that if you spend 100 million US dollars here, you will gain 1 billion US dollars or even more in the future.
Nearly 2,000 exhibitors will turn the Paris-Le Bourget International Aerospace Exhibition into a grand event for the aerospace industry, welcoming hundreds of thousands of industry professionals and ordinary tourists. It is also the oldest aerospace event in the world.
The Paris-Le Bourget International Aerospace Exhibition and the Farnborough International Aerospace Exhibition in the United Kingdom together form the barometer of the global aviation industry.
The development status of the global aviation industry can be known through the number of orders at air shows and other related industries driven by air shows.
It is impossible for any aerospace company to miss such an event. Le Bourget Airport, which has always been used as a cargo airport, has begun to clear out half of the time before the opening of the exhibition in preparation for the exhibition.
Three months ago, all booths were booked, and each exhibitor began to arrange their booths at the same time. Various carefully conceived and designed booths will be built bit by bit.
Tens of thousands of trucks carrying equipment, thousands of telephones, and dozens of kilometers of communication optical fibers form an exhibition of static displays and flight demonstrations.
This is an unprecedented aerospace industry event, and the manpower and material resources invested are completely astronomical.
It can even be said bluntly that the total cost invested by all exhibitors can easily arm the air force of any second- or third-rate country to the teeth, and beat all neighboring small countries of equal strength to tears.
What greeted the Sukhoi exhibitors was a bus arranged by the Russian Embassy. The people from the National Defense Star had not arrived yet, so Lin Mo naturally followed the Russians.
Lin Mo was about to board the bus with the others. Engineer Sergey Sulotov grabbed Lin Mo and dragged him to the last bus with his luggage.
Lin Mo carried his luggage with the lock on his back. He was a little strange about the senior engineer's behavior and said, "What's wrong? Engineer Sulotov!"
"Can you do us a little favor?" Sergei Sulotov, an old Russian white-haired man, smiled and seemed to have something else to ask for.
"Help? What are you doing?" Lin Mo was pushed onto the last bus by this old man, a senior engineer from Sukhoi.
Entering the bus, Lin Mo found that the group of passengers who had boarded the bus was different from the previous buses.
Most of the passengers in the car were young people, and some looked more like soldiers. The energy of six of them made Lin Mo think that they might be his colleagues, all fighter pilots.
I had never been on an Il transport plane before, even during a break, and never had such a close encounter.
The other party also noticed when Lin Mo looked at them.
similar!
Lin Mo's eyes met each other's eyes in mid-air, and a hint of provocation was brewing in the car. This was not a deliberate act by both parties, but an unconscious and subconscious move.
