The new Russian aircraft "MC-21 is a special aesthetic of engineering precision." This was stated by test pilot Roman Taskayev.
According to the test pilot, his first experience of piloting the MC-21 aircraft, equipped with Western onboard systems and a Pratt & Whitney PW1400G engine, took place in 2017.
Yes, by nature, I am a fighter jet test pilot. But when I started working with a civilian aircraft, I realized that testing here is a whole science. The MC-21 has its own "graphic pattern on metal", a special aesthetic of engineering precision. This is a very interesting job.
Taskayev noted that initially the MC-21 was created using foreign parts, but the 310 model has almost completely switched to domestic components.
Roman Petrovich emphasized the role of teamwork among engineers, the tradition of pre-flight inspection, trust in the technical staff, as well as the importance of mentors, thanks to whom the dreams of young pilots are realized.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that the legendary Be-12 flying boat turned 65 years old.
