Chapter 681:Irresistible Cost Performance

Ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft is destined not to be a common civilian consumption, nor is it a consumer aircraft on tourist routes.

This is a professional aircraft based on the high-end market, once it starts to operate in major civil aviation companies around the world, its ticket prices are definitely not cheap.

But in fact, compared with aircraft on international routes such as the A380 Airbus and Boeing 747, the actual operating cost of this ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft is much cheaper.

The largest operating cost of civil aviation aircraft is the consumption of aviation fuel, a trip to international routes, thousands of kilometers away, the consumption of aviation fuel is less than 100,000 US dollars, plus a variety of route costs, landing costs, pilots plus flight attendants' salaries, depreciation costs, routine maintenance costs, meals, etc., an international route down, its flight cost of nearly 160,000 US dollars.

Taking the A380 as an example, the special class, business class, economy class add up to more than 500 seats, if the attendance rate can reach 60%, it can be returned, more than 60% of the attendance rate, the extra is profitable.

In the future, the actual operating cost of ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft is lower than that of the A380 and Boeing 747 aircraft, because of the simple reason, that is, the reduction of aviation fuel consumption.

The A380 took off cost of $5,000, and the range consumed $100,000 in fuel, which is $15,000.

But the future of ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft fuel consumption is a completely different calculation, the cost of take-off flight is as high as 500 million U.S. dollars of aviation fuel, but the fuel consumption of subsequent flights is less than 5,000 US dollars.

Because in the future, when the ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft climbs to low-Earth orbit, the fuel consumption will be reduced to a near-zero level, and the engine will only operate at the lowest power after re-entering the atmosphere and continue until landing.

Therefore, in aviation fuel, the cost of each trip will be reduced a lot.

Although due to the fuselage structure and safety issues, the future ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft with a larger body size than the Airbus A380 has less than 400 seats, but compared with the fuel consumption cost of the flight, the future ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft has more profit margins.

Of course, such an advanced aircraft is not cheap.

The global airline gathered in front of the future ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft is naturally very excited after a comprehensive understanding of all the performance data of this pro-democracy aircraft.

No one can refuse such an aircraft, the most important thing is that by calculation, this aircraft that can fly all over the world in an hour is actually cheaper than the A380, which is even more inconvenient.

When civil aviation companies buy aircraft, the first thing to consider is the operating costs and routes, and when considering these, consider the attractiveness of the aircraft to passengers.

The future of ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft is undoubtedly perfect, no one can refuse this speed, especially in the case that ticket prices will not rise too much, this aircraft does not have an airline will refuse.

After all, there is also a lot of competition between civil aviation companies, especially the competition on international routes, which is actually very fierce.

In the heads of various civil aviation companies watching the live broadcast, they also gave instructions to the person in charge of the scene for the first time, as long as there is no problem with safety performance, the price is within the acceptable range, and immediately place an order to buy.

After a detailed understanding of the various performance of the ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft, the heads of the various airlines visited on the spot were invited to the VIP room of the exhibition area by the future aircraft manufacturing company.

More than 30 heads of airlines from various countries around the world and from international airlines gathered in the VIP room.

The sales leader of the future aircraft manufacturing company also met them here, and when they met, they said:

“Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, our hypersonic aircraft will bring a whole new chapter in civil aviation.”

"You're saying there's no problem, but we have some concerns about the safety of this aircraft."In the presence, a woman asked seriously.

Civil aircraft, the most critical performance, is not how fast and how far it can fly, but the safety issue.

A safety incident can be fatal to airlines.

"Security, you do not need to worry about the safety and stability of our group's products, the most common consideration is security and stability, whether it is civilian products or military products, so far the accident rate is zero."The head of future passenger aircraft sales said.

“That being said, we also have to think about the passengers, after all, your aircraft has not conducted any test flights, which is a little bit of an uneasy part of the passengers.”Someone else said.

"Reassured you, for the civil aircraft test work, we are serious and serious, absolutely will not have any sloppy, we have planned in the next month, high-density test flight work, when there will be ten ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft at the same time test flight work, the test flight route will be in every place around the world."

If you wish, the ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft we test flight can also land at your airport, and you can also be allowed to send observers to follow our aircraft for the entire test flight, and we can contract all the room and board.”The sales manager said.

Taking out ten ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft for test flights at one time is the most luxurious measure in the history of civil aircraft test flights, which also reassures the heads of all airlines on the scene.

In fact, the heads of the airlines present are more assured about the products of the future technology group, but they are relieved that it is useless, because the passengers are not them, and the passengers on this passenger plane are assured from the beginning.

Seeing everyone's reaction, the sales person in charge once again said: "single price of $ 600 million, you can place an order now, until our test flight is perfect, without any accidents and failures, the order will take effect, we will be the first time to complete all the company's orders."

Of course, we also provide specialized pilot services, after all, this ultra-high-sonic aircraft requires very good pilots to fly, and if you need to, we have a lot of qualified pilots who can do the job."

Hearing the head of the future aircraft company's sales, the head of dozens of airlines in the VIP room was relieved.

The price of $ 600 million is much cheaper than they expected, compared with the Airbus A380 has nearly half a billion dollars, ultra-high-sonic passenger aircraft price of $ 600 million, which is the conscience of the industry.

The final purchase concerns were gone, and the heads of airlines at the scene also placed orders, only waiting for the results of the test flight to assess whether to determine the order.

PS: Yesterday's blood donation, is gorgeous relatives need blood transfusion, is currently in the Beijing hospital, but want to be in the Beijing area of the hospital blood transfusion, there must be our friend identity to register blood donation, the hospital will sell blood to us, so it is very troublesome, is the gorgeous brother in Beijing, the place is not close, there are no friends, so to everyone for help, if there is Beijing friends, Qingming Festival has time, also willing to help, please contact gorgeous WeChat: qdhldxw, gorgeous here first thank you.
