Chapter 46 Cans for passenger planes
Any aircraft may have problems, but for a passenger aircraft, an accident may be catastrophic.
Since the Tu 104 passenger aircraft was finalized, there have been several accidents. However, after learning from the accidents and improving related aspects, the Tu 104 has never had any accidents again.
The air crash in 1981 was more due to human factors. However, the Tu 104 passenger plane was still eliminated. Anyway, this kind of aircraft was too old. Lao Maozi had already had more advanced passenger planes, such as the Tu 104 passenger plane. The replacement model Tu-154 has already become the mainstay.
So, the air crash was the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the Tu-104 passenger plane was completely shut down.
If it is an ordinary country, such as China, the retired passenger planes are also good things. There are so many aluminum alloys on them. They can be taken apart and sold for money, even if they are made into aluminum alloy lunch boxes.
However, Lao Maozi doesn't care. For them, it is not even faster to smelt the ore directly than to dismantle it and resmelt it.
After taking it apart, it was divided into categories. There are so many metals on the plane. If they are mixed together, the melted metal will have impurities. It is obviously an aluminum alloy lunch box, but it turns out that it can be attracted by magnets. Isn’t that a lie? ?
So, I like to throw away the things I eliminate in random places. This is the cemetery, the airplane cemetery, the tank cemetery, the warship cemetery, they are everywhere.
On the one hand, I am too lazy to clean it up. On the other hand, if we encounter a large-scale war in the future, we may be able to clean it up and continue to use it.
So, Qin Tao was somewhat looking forward to it at this time. What if these things could still fly?
"Fei? Aren't you a rag collector?" Zubayev was a little surprised.
"Yes, we collect rags. However, it is not easy to get such a big thing back. If you can fly back directly, you can save a lot of trouble." Qin Tao answered perfectly.
In fact, if these things can still fly, it would be too wasteful to take them back and dismantle them. Although this kind of aircraft is destined not to be used by the civil aviation department, the navy can still use it! Even if it can be used as a maritime patrol aircraft. This kind of aircraft is improved from the Tu-16. It is very similar to the domestic H-6, and the problem of parts and components can also be solved.
"That's true. It would be very convenient if we could fly there. However, I can't guarantee that we can fly there." Zubayev said: "After all, these things have never been sealed in the first place. They were exposed to the sun and rain inside the airport. It is estimated that many parts have become rusty over the past few years, and if it can barely fly, it may be dangerous.”
If careful sealing operations are carried out, various parts can still be used normally after being unsealed. If they are not sealed, the integrity of the parts will be quite poor.
Zubaev said this, Qin Tao had no hope.
"However, when the civil aviation industry eliminated this batch of aircraft, a large number of parts were also thrown over." Zubayev pointed to a warehouse on the other side of the mountain and said: "Everything is put in there, and there is nothing much now anyway. If you want to fly the plane back, you can use those parts to repair it."
"Really? This is really great!" Qin Tao's eyes lit up. When God closes a window for you, he will definitely open another door for you. Sure enough, there is still a turning point in this matter!
“However, we have no maintenance personnel.” Zubayev said: “After all, these aircraft belong to the civil aviation department.”
"I can find some maintenance personnel. If they can repair it, they will fly back. If they can't be repaired, they will be dismantled and shipped." Qin Tao said: "I am very satisfied with this batch of junk."
A smile appeared on Nikolai's face: "In that case, do you wish us a happy cooperation?"
“Yes, we will use one million cans to exchange for these eight passenger planes and corresponding parts.” Qin Tao repeated: “I am also very satisfied with this transaction.”
Can we still talk about business like this? Isn't this too simple?
By this time, the setting sun had already set, and the whole earth turned red.
"Let's go back and have a good drink." Qin Tao said, looking at Nicholas on the side: "Okay, by the way, my friend, we have a lot of goods this time, so we plan to use the ship To transport it, which port is the most suitable for us to transport it to?”
"Of course it's here. Don't go to the submarine base, it's too far away." Nikolai said as he walked.
“So, can you send a warship to pick us up?”
“No problem, these are small things, let’s drink first.”
For the alcoholic Lao Maozi, nothing is more important than drinking.
Nikolay, Zubayev, and several other old men who had already met Qin Tao, sat at a table, and then exchanged drinks.
Qin Tao has a slightly big head, and he has a good drinking capacity. He can drink one or two old men alone without any problem. However, these five or six old men are all here for him, and they drink with him one cup after another. Qin Tao I couldn't stand it anymore.
His grandma’s, if you go out in the future, you have to bring someone who can drink super well, the same kind of character that Chief Lin brought with you when you bought the Su-27.
Qin Tao secretly thought that if he had the chance, he would get all these guys drunk in the future.
“Qin, you are generous enough! Come on, do it!” Nicholas raised his wine glass.
Qin Tao's eyes swayed for a while, and then he fell to the side.
Nicholas smiled victoriously.
I don’t know how long it took, but Qin Tao opened his eyes. The scene around him was still shaking. You could see that most of it was white. It should be in the headquarters guest house, right?
With some smoke in his throat, Qin Tao stretched out his hand and shook it several times. Finally, he grabbed the water glass on the bedside table, put it to his mouth, and drank it.
The warm water entered his stomach, and his consciousness became clearer.
Hey, why did you change your clothes? Qin Tao looked at the blue and white striped navy shirt he was wearing. This was clearly the clothes of an old sailor!
Who changed the clothes for me?
There were countless question marks in Qin Tao's mind, but then he felt suffocated, so he lifted up the quilt and wandered toward the bathroom.
Creak! Qin Tao opened the door. Inside was a regular bathroom layout, with a bathtub in the innermost part, a sink in the middle, and a toilet outside. This layout is also widely used in the Khrushchev Building.
Qin Tao's eyes were a little blurred, and he saw that there seemed to be countless bubbles in the bathtub, and the sink was full of water. There seemed to be something wrong, but he didn't care, let's solve the physical problem first.
