Among test pilots, there is an internal term for certain types of aircraft - "flyable", when the aircraft accurately responds to every effort. The new import-substituted MC-21 has become exactly like that, according to 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 control is 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 fine-tuning the aircraft's response to the pilots' sensations, creating that very "flyability" for which the MC-21 is already praised by specialists.
While the serial production of 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, a new production of curved composite panels-blanks for the interior of the MC-21-310 was organized.
Earlier www1.ru reported that new Russian tires for the chassis of MC-21 and SJ-100 liners have successfully passed certification.
