With the beginning of the Spring Festival, the popularity of the banshee aircraft has become more and more rising.

The heat is not only reflected in the passengers.

Skynet Airlines has now put in three hundred Banshee aircrafts. After four consecutive days of operation, other airlines have also seen another light of hope.

As we all know, if China’s airlines want to expand their business, they must order planes from Airbus or Boeing.

These two aircraft not only have a mature maintenance system, but also a mature pilot operation training system. At the same time, it can be used at any commercial airport in the world.

However, these two aircraft are produced in European and American countries after all. The purchase of this aircraft requires US dollars and a high advance payment, and then waits for about two years before the aircraft can be mentioned.

After buying a plane, it is not a one-time-and-for-all deal, but rather a continuous start of spending money.

An aircraft needs maintenance and overhaul. Any spare parts related to these two aircraft can only be purchased from Boeing Airbus. At the same time, the most important engine of an airplane also has a service life limit.

Airlines cannot make any changes to the aircraft privately, otherwise Airbus and Boeing will cancel the subsequent technical maintenance of the aircraft.

Until the appearance of the Banshee Aircraft.

In fact, when the Banshee aircraft produced by Behemoth Industry was sent to the General Administration of Civil Aviation for aircraft safety testing, several large airlines in China received the news.

It’s just that Behemoth Industry suddenly launches an aircraft, and airlines will inevitably have all kinds of concerns and doubts before they see the real machine.

Doubt whether the quality of this aircraft is reliable, and whether it can really be put into commercial operation.

This kind of suspicion was gradually dispelled after the Banshee aircraft was officially put into operation.

This worry was completely shattered following the scene that took place in the Shezhou City Airport.

The wind speed of 19 knots can greatly reduce the temperature of the combustion chamber in heavy snow and complex mountainous terrain.

These factors, which have a fatal impact on traditional aircraft, have become more vulnerable than rice paper in front of the Banshee aircraft.

The vertical take-off and landing function and the more energy-efficient electric drive have made other airlines obsessed with it.

It can be said that through these four days of operation, various airlines have felt that traditional aircraft have become real rubbish. They expressed their views on Banshee aircraft by refusing to sign a follow-up order for new aircraft with Airbus Boeing. Perseverance.

It doesn’t matter if they can’t fly international routes, they can gradually replace all domestic flights with this kind of aircraft.

Whether the obsolete aircraft is sent to an international airline or sold abroad at a discount, it can find a place to make use of its residual heat.

…

The next day.

Executives sent by several Chinese airlines arrived in Zhongyun.

The meeting was placed in the Skynet Airlines conference room. Looking from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the conference room, you could just see the busy scene of the headquarters airport. A banshee aircraft flying into the sky is the best advertisement.

When Ye Qing arrived in the conference room, Chang Wanyu had been chatting with several executive representatives for half an hour.

As soon as Ye Qing arrived, the executives of these vice presidents or general managers immediately looked at Ye Qing, faintly with the joy that Zhu Yingtai was looking at Liang Shanbo.

After shaking hands and greeting each other, they jumped to the subject.

The first person to speak was the largest representative of China Southern Airlines, “Mr. Ye, I am the representative of China Southern Airlines. I will not say much about the praise of the Banshee aircraft. We at China Southern Airlines express our position, if possible, we will It will replace all its domestic flights with Banshee aircraft.”

Several other representatives subsequently expressed similar attitudes.

The relationship between the airlines cannot be said to be well-informed, but it is okay to be well-informed. Before they came, they had heard enough information from the Civil Aviation Administration of China.

The Banshee aircraft was able to obtain the domestic airworthiness certificate through the safety test of the civil aviation department within two months, and establish the airport unimpeded all the way. On the one hand, it is attributed to the fact that the Banshee aircraft has the ability to subvert traditional aircraft, and it is in line with China’s proposal that the aircraft will be localized in the future.

On the other hand, they also faintly learned that behind the Banshee’s aircraft, there was an air force helping to fuel the flames.

It is rumored that the Air Force attaches great importance to this aircraft and has preemptively purchased several aircraft, which have been sent to mountain and plateau airports for performance testing and military version design modifications.

Even the Air Force, which has the highest requirements for aircraft, is full of praise. They are civil airlines, what else is there to worry about the quality of Banshee aircraft?

Several senior management representatives came up to shake off their ambitions, which caught Ye Qing somewhat by surprise.

“Manager Fan, take the liberty to ask, how many planes does your company currently have?”

“As of last year, China Southern Airlines had a total of 768 aircraft, of which about 600 were domestic flights. We expect to purchase 78 new aircraft this year, but after discussions at our meeting, we decided to suspend the contract signing plan for new aircraft this year.”

Manager Fan Shiqiu said sternly: “The performance of the Banshee aircraft makes us no longer able to consider traditional aircraft. If possible, we hope to forward these orders to your company.”

The purchase quantity of 78 aircrafts this year is a matter of less than two days for the production capacity of Behemoth.

In addition, selling Banshee aircraft to domestic airlines is a long-established strategy.

With Skynet Airlines alone, it is impossible to capture China’s entire aviation market. It is also impossible for the Civil Aviation Administration of China to allow Skynet Airlines to grow and crush the three major airlines.

Skynet Airlines flies non-competitive routes, and the three major airlines fly their own commercial routes. This is a well-established development route.

China Xia is not a highly developed United States. China Aviation, which started late, lacks not one thousand or two thousand commercial aircraft.

One more Skynet airline is no problem at all.

In the future, Banshee aircraft will be all over China, and several major airlines will have their own Banshee aircraft. After being at the same level of competition with Skynet Airlines, everyone will compete with each other on other routes based on service and quality.

Of course~

China Southern Airlines said that it is willing to replace all domestic flights with Banshee aircraft. This is not a problem that can be replaced in one or two years.

China Southern Airlines has to find a home for hundreds of aircraft in order to replace them in batches. If they can’t find the next home, they can only wait for them to fly the plane to the end of life, and then replace it after it is scrapped. An airplane costs hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, who is willing to waste it?

“This number is okay.” Ye Qing raised his eyebrows. “It’s just that the Banshee aircraft is different from traditional aircraft. China Southern Airlines may need to arrange some pilots to come to our headquarters to learn.”

“We buy a simulation cabin, can we train ourselves?” Manager Fan Shiqiu had already visited the simulation cabin training room at Skynet Airlines headquarters before Ye Qing came.

That kind of oval simulation cabin can train a very mature banshee pilot.

“Isn’t the actual operation better?” Ye Qing gave an imperceptible smile. “You send pilots to learn from us. We can arrange for them to match with our airline pilots one-on-one after training in the simulation cabin. Go on the real plane and fly our route.”

“This proposal is really good.”

Manager Fan Shiqiu also smiled, “The proposal of President Ye may not only help us train pilots, but also relieve the flight pressure of some pilots for Skynet Airlines.”

“A few months ago, Miss Chang Wanyu of your company, but we dug a lot of pilots from China Southern Airlines.”

“Haha~ Everyone is mutually beneficial.” Ye Qingdao was not embarrassed. “In this way, when your pilots board and fly one-on-one with our pilots, we can subsidize their flight hours according to our pilot salary standards. .”

“At this point, we need to go back and discuss it before we can decide.”

“But I think Mr. Ye’s proposal is very likely.” Manager Fan Shiqiu spread his hands out, “We at China Southern Airlines are very sincere. Whether Ye always depends on our sincerity…”

“The Banshee aircraft, our official price is 450 million yuan.”

“This price, everyone must have known it from the civil aviation department.” Ye Qing said directly to the airline representatives: “Yes, our price is the same as that of Boeing 737-700. But the loading of the Banshee aircraft Ability is twice that.”

“Boeing’s quotation and actual transaction price are usually calculated based on the number of orders. The more orders, the more favorable the final transaction price.”

“Our final preferential price can be negotiated slowly according to the order quantity.”

“However, I can promise everyone.”

“How many pilots you send to our headquarters for training. After the training is over, you can pick up as many Banshee aircraft in stock.”

Manager Fan Shiqiu of China Southern Airlines wanted to pick up the teacup and drink water, but when he heard this, his hands stayed in the air.

Air China representative manager Zhang Zhibo, his face flushed like an apple.

The representative of Eastern Airlines kept blinking, and the frequency was the same as that of the transmitter.

They know the news that Skynet Aviation is in urgent need of pilots, but what is the situation…

Listening to the tone of President Ye, is the production capacity of Behemoth Industry more ferocious than Boeing, Airbus, and Bombardier combined?

Buying an airplane can be like buying a car. If you have money, you can pick up the car on the spot?

“Then…can you pay in installments?” Manager Fan Shiqiu stopped serving the teacup, rubbing his hands back and forth.

According to tradition, it is also possible to purchase airplanes from Boeing or Airbus in installments. In fact, most airlines choose to purchase airplanes by installments. China Southern Airlines has the largest scale in China, but its annual net profit is only about 20 billion yuan.

This year they plan to order 78 new machines. Not surprisingly, they will be able to start receiving these new machines in two years.

Then it took five years to pay the contract payment in installments.

“Of course you can pay in installments. When you buy a plane from Boeing Airbus, you not only need U.S. dollars, but you also have to go to a foreign commercial bank to apply for a loan. Not to mention the trouble, the interest rate is also ten high. If you buy from us, you can apply for a loan from a domestic bank. .”

“Then… can we pick up five… fifty new machines at once?” Manager Fan Shiqiu’s eyes were full of expectation.

“As long as there is money.”

“A hundred are no problem.”
