Chapter 160 Agusta wants in-depth cooperation!
Liang Shaoxiu’s project application was quickly submitted to the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, and was also copied to 603 institutes, inviting them to participate in standard formulation and airworthiness certification work.
This time, the mentality of the Science and Technology Commission has been much more stable. They did not gather all the aviation leaders from the entire imperial capital for a meeting in a small dark room. They just organized one by Ding Gaoheng. Internal discussion.
Moreover, after the last route dispute, "establishing one's own aviation industry standards" has become the main tone recognized by the top, so naturally there are fewer heated debates.
The main concern for everyone is that in such a short period of time, the aviation industry has submitted a second application for the establishment of a new national standard.
"Director Ding, our main certification team is currently at the 624 Institute to follow up on the GJB/Z64A-96 standard for aviation engine stability testing. If there is a new task at this time, I am afraid it will have to be dominated by the aviation industry system's own people. , this 182 factory was originally a backup for the 603 institute and the 172 factory. I am worried that their technical strength cannot keep up with the requirements..."
For these big guys in the front row of the Science and Technology Commission, This is definitely a happy worry in front of me.
In the past, their daily routine was to worry about insufficient money, insufficient skills, and worries about projects failing to pass...
This is the first time that they have worried too much about excellent projects like today.
“Then consider letting the 603 Institute take the lead...”
Someone came up with the simplest solution.
However, there was soon opposition:
“But Nanzheng has completed a lot of preliminary work, so we stepped in midway and handed over the project leadership. Others, what do you want the factories in the aviation industry system to think?”
“I don’t think there’s anything to worry about in terms of technical capabilities.”
Ding Gaoheng waved his hand with a smile, which was enough to show him. I’ve been in a pretty good mood for a while:
"You can take a look at another project description submitted by Factory 182 to see who was the first person to complete it."
There was a sound of paper turning in the conference room.
"Chang Haonan..."
Because the last closed-door symposium was very tight and the level was very high, most of the people present did not participate, so they may not be interested in this name. A deep impression.
However, there is one person who is obviously always paying attention to Chang Haonan's development trends.
That was Zhou Lin, who had had a relationship with him before:
"Chang Haonan, a student of Professor Du Yishan of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, last submitted the "Aviation Engine Intake Distortion" from 624 "Testing and Evaluation Methods", he was the first person to complete it, right?"
Ding Gaoheng took a sip of water from his tea cup and nodded leisurely:
"That's right."< br>
People on both sides of the conference table looked at each other.
"Are they the same person, or...the same name?"
It's no wonder that some people would ask this slightly strange question. Although aerodynamic stability and aircraft environmental tolerance both involve aviation safety fields, but there is no strong correlation.
And more importantly, there was only about three months between the two events.
No way? Can anyone really complete two pre-research plans with different directions in three months?
"It should be the same person. This name... doesn't seem to be very common, and the work unit written on it is also Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics."
Someone turned to the end of the project description, where the basic information of all the main participants was written.
"Hiss..."
Listening to various expressions of exclamation and disbelief coming from the surroundings, a smile appeared on Zhou Lin's face.
After all, if you really want to talk about it, she also had a share of credit for recruiting Chang Haonan and plugging him into the aviation industry system. If the latter can do more good things, she can easily take credit for it. .
“If he can produce the same quality of work as the previous evaluation method, then there will be no problem in letting Factory 182 take the lead with such a person in charge.”
"In addition, I propose to transfer some technical personnel from Bingcheng who have participated in the Yun-12B project. Although our standards are different from the FAA, the experience is always the same." However, at this time, it is not possible To avoid someone coming up with other ideas:
“Although I don’t really want to think about this possibility, but...will it involve some academic ethics issues? After all...it is indeed a bit difficult. I believe it.”
Although this sentence is not very straightforward, it is obviously suspected that the aviation industry department is trying to gain the reputation of Du Yishan’s closed disciples.
“Everyone.”
At this time, Ding Gaoheng knew that he had to stand up and express his position:
“Judging from the several projects that Comrade Chang Haonan has participated in, it was only after he joined that the progress developed by leaps and bounds, and related The unit involves multiple organizations such as 601, 606, 624, etc., so it is better not to talk about such things without evidence. Even if it is our internal meeting today, it may affect unity."
"Moreover. , people who engage in basic theoretical research have made achievements in multiple seemingly unrelated fields at the same time. It is not that there have been such all-rounders in the history of our country.”
After saying this, The atmosphere in the venue suddenly froze.
Those who can sit here naturally know who Ding Gaoheng refers to.
Guo Yonghuai is the only aerodynamics and applied mathematician who has participated in three major projects: two bombs and one satellite.
On December 5, 1968, while returning to the capital from the test base, he unfortunately died in a plane crash.
This air crash can be said to be a major setback in the field of my country's aerospace theoretical research.
After a long time, a voice resounded:
"Comrade Yonghuai died in a plane crash, and our new all-rounder, Comrade Chang Haonan, is responsible for the projects, regardless of Whether it is aircraft engine stability or aircraft anti-icing, they all involve aviation safety.”
"It can be considered a kind of inheritance..."
This sentence finally livened up the dull air a little.
“The anti-icing and de-icing airworthiness certification work of the aircraft has been decided like this first. Factory 182 will take the lead, with Institute 603, Factory 172 and Institute 602 assisting.”
Ding Gao Hengyong He tapped the table with two fingers:
"In addition, report to the superiors and ask the meteorological department and the Air Force's air traffic control unit to cooperate. As long as the aircraft takes to the sky, this will be done without affecting the safety of the route. The airspace application related to the project has been given the green light!”
...
"Director Ding, there is one more thing."
Just after Ding Gaoheng made the decision, a deputy director in charge of external technical cooperation came over and said:
< br>“The model that 603 participated in the airworthiness certification is the MA-60. At the previous air show, AgustaWestland’s technical staff had decided to cooperate with our aviation technology company after visiting and test-flying the aircraft.”< br>
“The specific form is to invest US$95 million and be willing to be responsible for the development and manufacturing of onboard comfort equipment, such as pressurization, air conditioning, noise suppression and cabin lighting systems, on the condition that they build a final assembly line in Naples .”
"This condition is very sincere, so although some details have not been finalized, the opinion of the Ministry of Aviation Industry is to approve the cooperation."
"Then we are engaged in such a big matter as type airworthiness certification, and it is impossible to abandon it. The people of Agusta should do it themselves.”
It should be said that the Italians are good at taking sides.
After confirming that the MA60 will surpass the ATR42 in the critical indicator of fuel economy, Finmeccanica Group asked its Alenia company to cooperate with the French Aerospace Corporation to develop a new model. , on the one hand, let another subsidiary of AgustaWestland, which is mainly responsible for the helicopter business, directly cooperate with the cash-strapped China Aviation Industry.
Considering that the MA-60 is already a highly developed aircraft, the latter wisely did not put forward outrageous requirements such as participating in the overall design of the aircraft, but instead put China's weakest capabilities The cabin equipment was taken over.
Civil airliners are different from military transport aircraft. Comfort is second only to safety in importance, and is probably as important as fuel economy.
You may win, but I will never lose.
“Can Italians have such efficiency?”
Ding Gaoheng was quite surprised.
But he made a decision after just a little thought:
"Since it's a passenger plane, there's nothing to hide. The ugly daughter-in-law has to see her parents-in-law."
"I think we can let Alenia's technical staff visit the MA-60's natural icing test. , you can also listen to their opinions. But when negotiating the contract, we must make it clear that the development of the anti-icing system is completely completed by ourselves, so the Italian personnel need to follow the arrangements.”
“Yes. ! I will convey it after the meeting.”
