(1) BIG AVIATION GATHERING IN SINGAPORE.
Within six days (from February, 24th till March, 1st, 1998) on
Territories of one of airports "Changs" largest in Asia
(Singapore) 9th international aerospace has taken place
Exhibition "Ejshn Ð Ñ Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð¿Ð Ð Ñ -98". The achievements showed
950 firms and the organisations from 33 countries of the world, including from
Russia. The expositions of firm have developed in four pavilions,
And on two platforms 45 planes were shown and
Helicopters of different function.
Exhibitions in Singapore have regional character, and them
Participants form the expositions taking into account requirements not
Only the countries of South East Asia, but also other states
Extensive Asian-Pacific region (ATR). This
The air show largest in Asia sometimes even name "Asian
The Parisian salon ".
Until recently many countries ATR, especially so
Named "young tigers" (Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Southern
Korea, Taiwan), worried the period of economic lifting, that
It was reflected and in job of the Singapore exhibitions. But autumn of 1997
Became for many countries "black" because of burst
Currency, and then and an economic crisis. The print
This crisis has imposed and on a course of job of an exhibition "Ejshn
Ð Ñ Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð¿Ð Ð Ñ -98 ". Running forward, it is possible to note the following fact:
Total sum of the contracts signed at an exhibition only slightly
Has exceeded 1,5 billion dollars, though the previous aviashows
Were famous for much more solid transactions.
The crisis phenomena it is possible to explain as
Rather weak participation of many leading aviation firms,
Which were limited only to the general information on the
Activity, and absence before declared planes,
Among which Russian fighters Ð Ð Ð -29 and Ð Ñ -30,
Foreign military planes Boeing F/A-18C/D and Ð -17, evrofajter
2000, civil planes Il-96T, the Boeing 777-300, Airbus
Indastri Ð 319 and Ð Ð Ð Ð -200 and others.
Nevertheless the forecast of organizers of an exhibition "Ejshn
Ð Ñ Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð¿Ð Ð Ñ -98 "About moderate character of influence of crisis on it
Carrying out has substantially proved to be true. First, in
Singapore profits all "grandees" of world aircraft engineering, and
Secondly, attendance decrease (experts and public)
It has appeared less expected (71 thousand persons against 75 in 1996
), and the quantity of official delegations even has grown with 60 to
83.
In comparison with an exhibition of 96th year participation of Russia was
More modest, but nevertheless the representative. All Russian
Participants have been concentrated in a uniform exposition. To prepare
It it was not simple; after all it was necessary to select those exhibits,
Which were potentially interesting. The big efforts for
Decisions of this problem were required from experts of Department
The aviation industry of Ministry of Economics of Russia and V/O
"Aviaexport". And they have not gone to waste: almost 30 firms and
The organisations from Russia have shown production. Among
Participants of aviashow were Open Society "ANTK of A.N.Tupoleva",
Aviation complex "Ilyushin", TANTK of G.M.Berieva, VNTK
Of N.I.Kamova, EMZ of V.M.Mjasishcheva, joint-stock company "Aircraft engine", NPO
"Phasotron", Irkutsk aviation-production association
(IAPO), KazanskoeAPO It. Gorbunova (KAPO), Open Society "Kazan
Helicopter factory ", KnAAPO, the Moscow helicopter factory of
M.L.Milja, joint-stock company "Rybinsk motors", Open Society "the Uhlan-Udensky
Aviation factory ", GNTS" LII of M.M.Gromova ", gosniipas,
NIIAO and others.
As a part of an incorporated exposition stands took places
The aviation industry of Ukraine: ANTK of O.K.Antonova,
Zaporozhye "Motor-sn", ZMKB "Progress" and Kharkov
aviatsionnoproizvodstvennogo associations (HAPO). Were also
Joint ventures with participation Russian are presented and
Foreign firms: "BETA-IR", "Varnishes-kamov" and "Hamilton
The standard-science ".
Russia has shown in Singapore this time only two planes.
For the first time main plane Tu214 was shown
(Ð Ñ -204-200) the Kazan manufacture. It is a variant initial
Models Ð Ñ 204 with domestic TRDD Ð Ð -90Ð . At the expense of increase
Stock of fuel plane Tu-214 can be maintained on
Routes in the extent to 7000 km. In 1997 the plane has received
The certificate of the Aviaregister the POPPY and in further it is supposed
To certificate on norms FAR.
Fighter Ð Ñ -27Ð shown in common LII by it.
M.M.Gromova and IAPO, daily participated in the program
Indicative flights. It is necessary to notice, that a high class
The piloting, shown by test pilot Anatoly
Kvochurom, the spent advertising campaign for the purpose of demonstration
Plane Su-27P as prototype declared, but not arrived on
Exhibition of fighters Ð Ñ -30 and Ð Ñ -37 in certain degree
Compensated an initial negative effect from refusal
Open Society "OKB Dry" to take part in an exhibition. Indicative
Flights Ð Ñ -27Ð called the big interest experts, though
It is necessary to notice, that the restrictions accepted in Singapore not
Have allowed Kvochuru to show some unique figures of pilotage.
At stands of the Russian enterprises models were shown
Modern and perspective civil planes and
The helicopters, operating breadboard models of the aviation equipment and
Units etc. Among perspective samples of the aviation
Technicians interest have called the regional foreign experts
Plane Tu-324, transport planes Tu-330 and Ð Ð -76Ð Ð?,
Multi-purpose amphibian Ð Ð -200 and easy amphibian Ð Ð -103,
Fighter Ð Ñ -30, attack plane Ð Ñ -25Ð Ð , fighting helicopters MI-28N
And Ð Ð -50, search and rescue helicopter Ka-32S. Attention
Many military experts were involved with an operating breadboard model
protivovertoletnoj a mine developed in gosniipas. At the stand
Ukrainian language ANTK of O.K.Antonova the big attention of the foreign
Experts it has been given transport plane An-70.
The Russian exposition was visited by heads of a number
The ministries of Singapore, the Ministries of Defence of Israel, Bangladesh,
Vietnam and Thailand, representatives of firms of South Korea, Malaysia,
SHri Lanki, the Peoples Republic of China, India, Laos, the USA, France, Italy, Czechia,
Japan and other countries. During these meetings have taken place
Negotiations also are signed reports on the further development
Cooperation in the field of sale aerospace
Technicians, creations of new flying machines, aviation
The equipment, technologies etc.
Participation of Russia in "Ejshn Ð Ñ Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð¿Ð Ð Ñ 98" has shown, that ours
The aircraft industry quite is still competitive and has
Determination to keep and expand the positions in
Asian-Pacific region.
Civil planes.
That was interesting at an exhibition as a whole and what
Tendencies on it were traced? The first, that has surprised -
Absence of the main planes. It too the original
Echo of a crisis situation in economy of the countries Southeast
Asia. But it is interesting, that till now any leader
The airline of region did not cancel any order on
Passenger planes. Now "Boeing" and "Airbus Indastri" have
Accordingly 252 and 99 firm orders from airlines of the countries
ATR. Over 70 % from these orders it is necessary on shirokofjuzeljazhnye
Planes (747-400, 777-200 and-300, Ð 340 and AZZO).
It is interesting, that from the general number sold by "Boeing"
shirokofjuzeljazhnyh planes almost 80 % are necessary on ATR,
In particular, all of 100 % of orders aboard the plane 777-300 have arrived from
Airlines of this region. Every second shirokofjuzeljazhnyj
Liner "Airbus Indastri" is sold also in the countries ATR.
The Vice-president of group of civil planes of firm "Boeing"
Larri Dikenson, acting at press conference in hotel
"Ritts-Karlton", has given an overall picture of development of the market of the main
Planes in ATR the next 20 years. During this period
To region airlines 4845 main can be demanded
Planes for a total sum of 415 billion dollars, and a share
"Boeing" can be rather considerable. The first the
Air liners "Boeing" has put in this region still in the late fifties
Years and from now on by it it is sold almost 2200 (with the account
Approximately 300 planes of the former firm "Makdonnell Douglas").
Dikenson has underlined, that for last 10 years it has been sold
Over 50 % of all planes for the sum of 109 billion dollars.
Experts of firm believe, that 1997 which have burst in the autumn
The economic crisis in the countries ATR will not be long and
Practically will not render negative influence on the world
Aircraft industry. The firm considers, that the next 20 years
It will be put 16200 new main planes, from
Which almost third will fall to the countries of Asia.
The important place in "Boeing" plans is taken away the Peoples Republic of China. By the end 1997
In China were in operation of 485 main
Planes from which 333 have been put by firm "Boeing" (with
The account of planes "Makdonnell Douglas"). Till 2017 to China
It is required more than 1900 new planes for the 124 billion sum
Dollars that will make this country the largest in the world the market
The main planes. Only in October, 1997 China
Has bought from the American aviagiant at once 50 planes on
The sum of 3 billion dollars, and current year - five more planes
Ð Ð?Ð Ð?г-777 For the sum of 685 million dollars.
The consortium "Airbus Indastri" is more constrained in the estimations.
By its estimations, the next 20 years it is required to the world market
15800 main planes from which 2300 it is already sold.
Cost of the remained 13500 planes is estimated in 1,1 bln.
Dollars. The forecast of the European experts shows, that if
Average world gain of volume of aviatransportations within 20 years
Will make 5,2 % a year in ATR it will be equal 6,4 %.
Consortium, as well as its transatlantic competitor, considers, that
The crisis situation in ATR will not be long and will not affect on
The aviation market. The conclusion, that to region from this becomes
It is required about 3600 main planes for the sum 375
Billion dollars, and from them from above 750 will be
shirokofjuzeljazhnymi with number of places 400 and more.
Not casually "Airbus Indastri" strenuously advances the
The project shirokofjuzeljazhnogo two-deck air liner AZHH,
Considering this car as the most comprehensible for
Airlines ATR, for many of which are characteristic protjazhennye
Routes through Pacific ocean. Near to an input on an exhibition was
The breadboard model of section of the fuselage which was the original is exposed
Plane AZHH advertising.
At the press conference the executive president
Consortium Jean Person has declared, that official working out
Plane AZHH will begin only when "we will be assured,
That we will reach all objects in view and the plane on profitability
It will be much better than the plane the Boeing 747-400 and its future
Variants ". After all in requirements to it the condition made a reservation
Improvements of fuel efficiency on 15-20 % in comparison with
By plane 747400. Person has told, that, studying the project,
The consortium "has solved outstanding technical problems, but has warned,
That if there will be no confidence of achievement of objects in view,
That he recommends to postpone the program beginning again.

One more reason of carrying over of terms which has named Person,
The lack of engineering shots, considerable part is
Which it is occupied in working out of new planes A340-500 and-600. In
Present time is the largest program of a consortium, so
As cost of the firm and reserved orders comes nearer
To 13 billion dollars. In operation these liners will appear in
2002
The Vice-president of a consortium on marketing Filip Dzharri
Has told, that definitive shape AZHH should be confirmed in
The end of 1998 As he said, officially the plane program
It will begin in the third quarter 1999 g, and in operation
Will enter the third quarter 2004
At press conference Person has sharply condemned the appearing
Periodically messages, that for program realisation
In cost of 8-9 billion dollars there are no partners. He has told,
That "the program is blocked by existing agreements on all
100 % ". Already there are agreements with firms" Ð Ð Ð Ð?Ð Ñ ","Belerbas",
"Finavitek", "Fokker/Stork" and SAAB. Within 1998 will be
Agreements with six European firms are signed.
It is known also about contacts of a consortium with Russian
Aircraft industry.
By the way, this press conference became "a swan song"
Persona. Having worked on a supervising post almost 15 years, it with
April of this year retires. An English weekly journal
"Flight Interneshnl" the Person of year in the world has awarded to it a rank "
Aircraft industries ". And it is not casual, as at Persone
There have been begun jobs on seven large programs, while
At its predecessors - only on three. The magazine has named it
Not only the talented organizer, but also the leader on introduction
High technologies. Persona on its post will replace Noel
Forzhar.
Nevertheless in Singapore Personu it was possible to present
New member in family of planes AZHH - model Ð Ð Ð Ð 50,
Which represents truncated on 5,1 m initial
Plane AZHH-100 (in a stock at a consortium is 650Ð Ð Ñ Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð
Ð Ð Ð Ð -200). According to a consortium, plane AZHH-50 should
To fill in the market a blank between air liners Ð 340-600 (378
Places) and Ð Ð Ð Ð -100 (555 places) and to become the dangerous competitor to any
From again developed variants of the plane 747-400.
Absence of the main liners have quite paid back
Regional passenger planes, and in Singapore for the first time
Have been shown Brazilian Embraer ERJ-145 and Indonesian IPTN
N-250. On parking were shown Canadian Kanader "Ridzhenl
Dzhet "100 and American TSessna" the Grandee the Caravan "and Ferchajld
Dorne 328; all of them already were at the previous exhibitions.
Brazilian "Embraer" recently it was sharply pulled out on
The advanced positions in the world market of the regional jet
Planes. Appreciably this success speaks
Effective reorganisation of the company which has begun in the late eighties
Years. In 1994 g it has been privatised, its number was
It is essentially reduced also by result of it became sharp
Increase of efficiency of its activity ("Aviation market" â 1 see
For 1997). The firm has sold For the history from above 5000
Planes, recently it has been certificated on the international
To standard IS09001 which has confirmed high quality of its job.
Shown at an exhibition 50-seater ERJ-145 (earlier had
Designation Ð Ð Ð 145) it has appeared extremely successful regional
The liner the Firm managed to design rather cheap and
The economic plane with high flight characteristics. To
To the beginning of 1998 "Embraer" has sold under firm orders 171
The plane from which 39 - it is put. Still it has 228
The reserved orders. It is remarkable, that the core
The buyer of the plane are the American airlines
"Kontinental the Express train" (50 firm and 150 options) and "America
Needles "(42 and 25 accordingly). Recently ERJ-145 has made the world
Tour during which time it has visited many countries of Europe,
And also in the South America and Australia.
Now "Embraer" develops 37-seater
Plane ERJ-135 which is a variant truncated on 3,5 m
Initial model. The skilled car will be passed by autumn of 1998
On flight tests. But, despite it, it has already won
Popularity in the market. At an exhibition in Singapore the president of firm
Maurisio Botelo has signed with the American airlines at once
Three decent contracts for a total sum of 1,3 billion dollars.
One - for the sum of 810 million dollars with "Business the Express train" on
Delivery of 20 miniliners ERJ-135 (20 more it is reserved) and
Two contracts for the sum of 513 million dollars with "Skajuest" and
"Trance Stejts Erlajnz" on 29 planes the General number firm and
The reserved orders aboard the plane ERJ-135 has reached already 120.
Indonesian IPTN has presented the information on programs
Workings out of regional planes N-250 and N2130. Shown
For the first time plane N-250-100 passes in Singapore now
The program of flight and certified tests. In May, 1999
The plane will be certificated in Europe, and in the end of 1999 or in
The beginning of 2000 - in the USA. By the moment of opening of an exhibition
"Ejshn Ð Ñ Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð¿Ð Ð Ñ -98" firm IPTN had 220 firm and
The reserved orders aboard the plane N-250. According to firm,
Break-even of the program will be reached at sale 260
Planes.
Plane N-250-100 calculated on transportation of 68 passengers,
It is equipped by two TVD Allison Ð Ð 2100Ð capacity on 3270 h.p. and
Is the first-ever regional plane with EDSU, in
Which working out is assisted by the European firms "Lukas
Aerospace "and" Libherr the Aerotechnician ".
During consisting in the beginning of February, 1998 of a meeting
The president of Indonesia Suharto and the chairman of firm "Boeing" fila
Kondita the arrangement on the help American has been reached
Firms in working out and certification of plane N-250. Firm IPTN
Projects of 76-seater plane N-250-200 are investigated also and
Advanced 70-seater plane N-270.
The program of working out of the 130-seater jet plane
N2130 It is declared in Indonesia by national and on it
It is supposed to spend 2 billion dollars. President Suharto and
The minister of technology Habibi who is the head of firm IPTN
(Which, by the way, designate into place premerministra),
As much as possible promote performance of the program of this plane,
Despite requirements of the International currency fund on
To the termination of its state support. During the
Visit to Indonesia in January, 1998 the chief executive
The IMF Michel Kamdessju is the requirement has put as the main thing
Condition for allocation to the country of the credit at a rate of 43 billion
Dollars for economy rescue. The Indonesian management
Considers firm IPTN as national property of the country and
Declares, that plane N2130 program is carried out on the private
Investments and any measures of influence from IMF on it
Will not affect.
Now working out of two variants is conducted
Plane N2130-100 - on 104-114 places and N2130-200 - on 122132
Places. Both planes are intended for operation on
Routes in the extent to 2960 km. On them there will be two
TRDD by draught in a class on 8-9 those and to be applied EDSU.
Experts of firm IPTN believe, that in the beginning of the XXI-st century more
2200 old planes the Boeing 737-100 and-200, Douglas DC-9 and the TANK
111 are subject to replacement. On their data, during 1995-2005 gg
Requirement of the world market for planes on 100-120 places
It is estimated in 2600 units, and in 2005-2025 it is required still
3240. Habibi has declared, that with regional plane N2130 firm
Plans to enter the market where in the lead positions occupy
"Boeing" and "Airbus Indastri".
Firm "Boeing" declared, that begins the marketing in Asia
Campaign of new heavy cargo plane MD-17,
Developed "Makdonnell Douglas" on a basis
Military-transport plane S-17. Outwardly MD-17 it is similar on
The military variant, but differs structure of avionics and some
Other systems. Settlement maximum take-off weight of planes
MD-17 And Ð -17 the maximum is identical and equal 265,6 t, however
Paid loading of "lorry" will be equal 79,4 t, at that time
As at military-transport it does not exceed 77 t.
Manufacture of cargo planes will allow "Boeing" to save
Assembly line on release of planes C-17/MD-17 at least to
2010 Now by Air Forces requirements it is provided
Construction of 120 planes S-17 though there are recommendations on
To release of 15 more units. Capacities of factory in
Long Beach allow to make 29 planes.
Concerning possibilities of sale of plane MD-17 in the countries of Asia,
The firm has underlined, that its merit will be that,
That it can be used with partially prepared VPP
In the length 900-1000 m. Therefore it can deliver cargoes in
Areas where operation modern shirokofjuzeljazhnyh is impossible
Cargo planes of type the Boeing 747400F and DC-10 the Settlement price
Plane MD-17 makes 175 million dollars. Making comments on this
Size, the representative of "Boeing" has told: "the Price of the plane is enough
It is high, but it is necessary to consider, that life cycle reaches it
30 years. The niche for such plane in the market exists.
For example, the oil companies daily lose 1 million dollars in
Expectation of delivery of large-sized designs chisel
Installations which are usually transported land or sea
Transport ". The analysis of a sea cargo transportation has shown, that if
Only 5 % will pass to air transport it will allow in
Current of year completely to load 32 planes MD-17.
Many of the administrative planes shown at an exhibition
("Falkon" 900Ð Ð and 2000, "Sajtejshn" X, "Challenger" 604 and
Etc.) were already shown. For the first time in Singapore was
The plane Gulf Stream the Aerospace "Gulf Stream" V is shown,
Specially created for distant non-stop flights
(More than 11000 km). On a way from New York the plane has established at once
Two world records of speed on a route. The first site to
The Hawaiian Islands in the extent of 8200 km "Gulf Stream" V
It has overcome for 9 ch 45 mines, and to airport "Changs" (10700 km)
Has reached for 14 ch 22 minutes the Canadian corporation "Ð Ð?Ð Ð Ð Ñ Ð?Ñ Ð " not
Has shown similar "Gloubal the Express train", but
Has solemnly noted sale of 75th plane.
The interesting information has given French "Dasso aviason",
Having informed on plans of working out of the supersonic administrative
Plane SSBJ. Creation three-impellent is provided
The plane, capable to make flights with eight passengers with
Cruiser number Ð =1,8 on distance of 7200 km. Kakihlibo
The firm has not informed other details on plane SSBJ, having declared
Only, that its take-off weight can make 40 t, from
Which half will fall to fuel.
