Chapter 289

After lunch in the fishing ground, Asik invited Qin Shiou to go with him to the space city company to check the plane.

Qin Shiou wants to take Winnie. After all, the stewardess is a senior stewardess and should know a lot about the plane.

He called. Winnie said she was taking the girls to play in gramona National Park, so she didn't go to see the plane. All she knew was the fixed wing plane. Qin Shiou wants to buy a fixed wing aircraft, but she has selected a model. This time she chooses a helicopter, and she can't help.

In this way, Qin Shiou took Auerbach, tiger and leopard on the plane and flew directly to Montreal.

The advantage of having a private plane is this. It's very free. What the owner says is what he says. You can't take pets by civil aircraft. It doesn't matter if you have a private plane.

Asik adjusted the arc of the recliner for the tiger and the leopard so that they could lie on it comfortably, and then put snacks and milk. The service embarrassed Qin Shiou.

Montreal is a city located in the southwest of Quebec. It is the largest city in Quebec, the second largest city in Canada and the 15th largest city in North America. It is only 700 kilometers away from St. Johns.

This city was once the economic capital of Canada, with the largest population and the most developed economy. Although it has lost its leading position in the economy, it is still one of the most important economic centers in Canada. The aviation industry, finance, design, film industry and other industries here are particularly developed, and there are many large companies. You can see this when you enter the city center.

After arriving in Montreal, Asik arranged a five-star hotel for Qin Shiou, named on the Bank of Lachin river. When you open the window, you will find a beautiful and clean river with pleasant scenery.

Asik asked Qin Shiou if he wanted to rest. When he got the negative answer, he drove two people and two dogs to the headquarters of space city.

Buying a plane is not like buying a car. You can watch it one by one. The plane is too big and occupies too much space, and the unit price is too high. The space city has its own apron, but there are only less than 20 fixed wing aircraft and more than 40 helicopters parked.

In fact, most aircraft are produced by customers who contact manufacturers after placing orders.

Qin Shiou came to the space city because they happen to have an air tractor at-802c aircraft. In addition, there are a large number of helicopters. Qin Shiou can visit the site.

After arriving at the apron, Asik led Qin Shiou straight to at-802c. The price of the bare metal aircraft was 644000, which could be modified. On the way, he introduced Qin Shiou: "your country Beidahuang navigation company has just purchased six of these aircraft, at-802f, which is mainly responsible for forest fire fighting. The total price is $4.8 million."

Qin Shiou smacked his tongue and asked, "is the price increased so much by refitting it into a fire extinguisher?"

The average at-802f is $800000, which is close to $1 million. The price is not expensive.

Asik smiled and said, "not so. The at-802f refitted machine only costs 680000 yuan in Canada. It's just that the tariff sold to your country is relatively high, which leads to such a high price."

After hearing what Asik said, Qin Shiou understood that in order to protect independent property rights, China has raised tariffs on luxury goods such as cars, aircraft and yachts very high, which can be seen from the purchase of imported cars.

Entering the apron, Qin Shiou saw a powerful and powerful aircraft. Asik introduced him: "most of these aircraft have been booked by customers, otherwise we dare not let them stop outside. The maintenance fee of the aircraft is too expensive. Basically, it can be calculated according to the price of 1% of the aircraft value every day."

The at-802c is very conspicuous. Qin Shiou can see it from a distance. Its appearance is a rare yellow in the aircraft. It is about the same size as the p-750: it is four meters high, more than ten meters long, and its wingspan is much wider, nearly 20 meters.

In front of the at-802c, Asik asked him to go up and have a look, and then introduced the correlation coefficient: the Pratt & Whitney pt6a-67f turboprop engine is used, with a full 1350 horsepower, the cruising speed is 356 km / h fast enough, can fly 1289 km once filled, can climb 7620 meters, etc.

In terms of standard configuration, the at-802c uses a traditional landing gear with two main wheels and one tail wheel. The aircraft is equipped with a wipaire-10000 amphibious pontoon, so that it can land on a non professional runway or even on the water.

This is very important for Qin Shiou because he has no airport. If at-802c can land on the sea, it will be OK to build a hard runway on the beach at that time.

Thanks to the original design intention of at-802, it was originally designed for forest fire fighting, so in order to get water faster, the plane needs to land directly on the river. Now it's cheap, Qin Shiou.

After feeling the power and domineering of the air tractor, Qin Shiou decided to buy the aircraft, but it would cost an additional $40000 to refit it into an agricultural machine that could sprinkle pesticides and seeds.

In addition, Asik is very considerate to help Qin Shiou refit another thing, that is, the machine gun rack: "as long as you find a way to buy a civilian version of M60 or M249, you can hang it and sweep the world."

"Can you install rocket nests or missiles?"

"Yes, we can, but we can't get the formalities. In addition, I don't think you can get rockets and missiles."

"Just kidding, ha ha, but it's best to install an infrared autonomous Recognition Radar for me. You know, I cruise my fishing ground every day. The ocean area is too large to see with my eyes."

"No problem, plus 28000 yuan, the ss-pd2 civil autonomous identification radar produced by Boeing can work 24 hours."

The purchase of agricultural aircraft is simple, because the model has been selected in advance, and the next step is to buy cruise helicopters.

Although Qin Shiou said that at-802c would install radar to cruise the fishing ground, in fact, he generally wouldn't drive this aircraft. This guy has an empty weight of nearly three tons, which is a big killer burning oil. He needs a light, fast and small aircraft.

After understanding the needs and uses of Qin Shiou, Asik said, "you can buy a single helicopter. You don't need multiple helicopters. There is a big price gap between the two sides."

A single helicopter has only one rotating wing, and there are naturally many multiple helicopters. The price gap between the two sides is really large. Many single helicopters are less than $1 million, such as H2S, heliportch-7, an-2enara, etc.

There are almost no multi engine helicopters with less than $5 million or even tens of millions, which is almost comparable to the price of multi engine fixed wing aircraft.

Asik took him to an exquisite single engine small helicopter and introduced him: "Safari helicopter, nicknamed baby beauty, is an aircraft independently developed by us in Canada. It has the same space as the bell-47, the speed is about the same, and the price is only $200000."

"What about bell-47?" Qin Shiou asked, this aircraft is a classic among helicopters, comparable to AK in gun. It has been born for 70 years and has been selling well.
