Chapter 854

The specific model of this helicopter is Mi-8-AUx, which was successfully developed by the Miri Moscow Helicopter Manufacturing Joint Stock Company 15 years ago and put into the Australian market.

It adopts some new technologies adopted by the second-generation helicopters, which greatly prolongs its service life, and has a reputation of being durable and less faulty in the civilian helicopter market.

The fuselage structure of the helicopter is a traditional all-metal cross-section semi-monocoque nacelle plus tail beam structure, which is divided into front fuselage, middle fuselage, tail boom and tail boom with fixed flat tail. The main material is aluminum alloy, and the tail is used Some titanium alloys and high-strength steels.

The front part of the fuselage is the cockpit, the cockpit can accommodate three people, the pilot, the co-pilot and the random mechanic, the rear of the cab is the passenger and cargo compartment, the rear has a large cargo compartment door and passengers in the middle of the rear that open downwards Airstairs.

Compared with the helicopters put into the civilian market in Europe and America, the Mi-8-AUx cockpit has 28 foldable seats, that is to say, it can accommodate 28 people at a time.

Generally, European and American civilian helicopters at this price range are commercial helicopters, which can accommodate less than half of the number of twenty-eight people, and pay more attention to enjoyment.

The Soviets seem to be preparing for war all the time. Compared with helicopters of the same price, the Mi-8-AUx is much less comfortable, and there is no luxury at all. It pays attention to speed, load bearing, and survival ability.

Standing under this huge helicopter, Li Du reached out and patted its shell.

The quality of the old Maozi's stuff is not to say, after he slapped it hard, the helicopter made a muffled sound of 'bang bang', and it didn't move at all, but it hurt his hand from the shock.

Brother Wolf pulls open the hatch to the cockpit, which has large hatches that slide back on each side of the cockpit, and a hatch in the roof.

Li Du climbed up and asked, "What is the hatch above? Is it for ejecting the pilot?"

Brother Wolf shook his head: "It's for checking the engine."

Inside the cockpit are densely packed dashboards and various tools, which Li Du doesn’t understand, but they belong to Brother Wolf’s specialty. He introduced them to Li Du:

"These are two radio stations, one is a UHF radio station with a frequency range of 118-135.9 MHz and a transmission distance of 100 kilometers, and the other is a high-frequency radio station with a frequency of 2-8 MHz and a transmission distance of 1,000 kilometers ..."

"This is an in-flight communication device, a wireless phone, this one is used to communicate with the rear cabin, and this one is used to communicate with the ground, keep it in good condition..."

"These are the instruments of navigational equipment for all-weather flight, gyroscope, airspeed indicator, turn indicator, this is an altimeter, this is a climb power indicator, magnetic compass, astronomical compass for very low flight, automatic radio Compass, radio altimeter with "dangerous altitude" warning..."

"This is a civilian model. If it is a military combat helicopter, there should be an infrared jammer installed above our head and above the tail beam, and there will be three tracer bomb dispensers on both sides of the rear cockpit window..."

Brother Lang's introduction was very professional. Obviously, he knew this helicopter very well, even better than the Dolphin commercial helicopter they took before.

It's a pity that Li Du couldn't understand, especially when Brother Wolf introduced the engine, reducer and the lubricating oil system, he couldn't understand it even more.

Godzilla also couldn't understand, so he admired Brother Wolf very much: "You are really amazing, you know so much."

Brother Wolf smiled and said: "I received exchange training in Russia, and this was the helicopter I was most familiar with at that time. I only know superficially. If the boss wants to drive this helicopter in the future, I can introduce a comrade-in-arms to do it. driver."

Li Du asked, "Can't you drive?"

Brother Wolf said: "This is a medium-sized helicopter, and it needs two pilots. One pilot can't handle it, and a co-pilot is needed to assist."

Li Du said: "The comrade-in-arms you introduced can be the co-pilot?"

Brother Wolf shook his head and said, "He is a professional pilot, and he is also very good at maintenance. As far as I know, he is the best pilot of all Russian helicopters."

Hearing that Brother Wolf praised this comrade so much, Li Du said, "If you can get him over, then I'd be happy to pay him a high salary."

To get such a high evaluation from Brother Wolf, this person is definitely not a mediocre person. If he wants to hire someone, he must pay a high price. He can't have such good luck and miss a helicopter pilot genius like Brother Wolf.

Visited the cockpit, and the passenger cabin in the back.

The cabin was empty, with a lot of space, bigger than the space in Steve's helicopter.

Its seats are installed along the side walls, and all of them are folding seats, which can be pulled down to sit on people, and can be closed to create space for cargo.

There are mooring rings, winches and pulley blocks on the floor, and the wolf guides them, and there is also a hanging system outside the cockpit, which can be used to transport large cargo.

After visiting the helicopter, Li Du said, "Are you sure it's not a military helicopter? How do I think it doesn't look like a civilian model? Isn't the decoration inside too simple?"

Brother Wolf said: "It can be said to be a civilian model, or it can be said to be an industrial model. It is not for business use, but for transporting goods, such as gemstone mines."

This explains it. In fact, it is very difficult to excavate black opal, and it is even more difficult to polish it after excavation.

The reason why Li Du was able to dig out the gems easily was because he had the help of little flying insects, otherwise he would first dig out a large amount of ore, polish the ore, and then look for the gems.

This helicopter is supposed to be used to transport ore, and the mine owner wants to dig out the ore, send it somewhere, and then grind it.

Unfortunately, for unknown reasons, the owner of the mine ran away. He disassembled and parked the helicopter inside, but did not take it away.

Li Du couldn't understand why he would give up such a helicopter. He had checked it through the flying insects before. The helicopter was fully equipped, and all the main machines such as the engine were listed.

Brother Wolf also checked, but he didn't find out why the helicopter was abandoned.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. In short, Li Du owns the first helicopter in his life.

Of course, this helicopter is still a long way from flying into the blue sky. It needs maintenance, comprehensive maintenance, rotors and tails, etc.

Li Du wanted to find a helicopter sales company to take care of these tasks. Brother Wolf shook his head and said that he would contact his comrade-in-arms, Ivan Vladimir Glushakov, when he got back.

After finishing the call, Brother Wolf said, "Boss, he will fly over from Crimea soon."

Li Du was surprised and said, "What about the salary? Meet and discuss?"

Brother Wolf said: "Yes, this is easy to discuss. I believe he will be happy to stay by your side. It will be easier for him to work and make more money."

After a pause, he continued, "Living is more dignified."
