Among test pilots for some types of aircraft there is an internal term - "flyable", when the aircraft accurately responds to every effort. The new import-substituted MC-21 has become exactly like that, said pilot Oleg Mutovin.
According to him, such "responsiveness" of the aircraft is not accidental at all - engineers and test pilots jointly brought the control algorithms to perfection.
When the aircraft's controls are so harmonious that the pilot's thoughts are transmitted through the hand to the movement of the aircraft - they say that the aircraft is responsive, pleasant to control. MC-21 is just one of those.
The pilot added that the latest domestic MC-21 fly-by-wire control system allows you to fine-tune the aircraft's response to the pilot's sensations, creating the very "flyability" for which the MC-21 is already praised by specialists.
While the serial production of the MC-21 is only being prepared, Russia is already building enterprises to supply aircraft with spare parts. For example, at the "Aerocomposite" enterprise in Ulyanovsk, anew production of curved composite panel blanks for the interior of the MC-21-310 was organized.
Earlierwww1.ru reported thatnew Russian tires for the chassis of MC-21 and SJ-100 liners have been successfully certified.
