The new Russian aircraft "MC-21 is a special aesthetic of engineering precision." This was stated by test pilot Roman Taskaev.
According to the test pilot, his first experience of flying 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 tester. 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.
Taskaev noted that the MC-21 was originally created using foreign parts, but the 310 model has almost completely switched to domestic components.
Roman Petrovich emphasized the role of teamwork of 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.
