The participation of two MC-21 aircraft simultaneously in certification tests will speed up the process, testing different modes and configurations. This opinion was expressed by Dmitry Baranov, a leading analyst at Finam Management.
According to him, the use of two aircraft allows collecting data on the reliability of systems under different operating conditions.
Baranov emphasized that the MC-21 project is extremely important for ensuring the country's technological sovereignty, supporting local production and the professional level of domestic personnel.
From an economic point of view, this airliner can support demand for the medium-range segment in the country. The project is important from the point of view of developing the country's intellectual resources, implementing scientific and engineering solutions, and implementing import substitution in other industries.
The head of the flight test and development complex of PJSC "Yakovlev" (part of the Rostec Group) Dmitry Panchugin noted that now certification work is underway with the participation of two aircraft at the same time — 0012 and 0013.
Prior to that, in workshop No. 249 at the Irkutsk Aviation Plant, work began on assembling a composite wing of the next set of MC-21 aircraft.
