The ec-145 is a light dual-engine multi-purpose helicopter developed by European direct companies to target market vacancy. At that time, in order to shorten the development cycle and put it on the market as soon as possible, the company took a shortcut in the development of the ec-135 and the rear fuselage of the BK-117 to form the ec145.

Taking shortcuts does not mean shoddy. This helicopter is actually an optimized combination of the first two. It is a mixed race and inherits the advantages of both parents.

The ec-145 has been born for fourteen or five years. It adopts the latest technologies, such as all-glass cockpit technology, aerodynamic optimization of the fuselage, etc., and uses a lot of composite materials and new production technologies. Therefore, it is still very cash-free today.

Kato introduced to Wang Bo that the ec-145, which combines the advanced technologies of e-135 and bk-117, has the characteristics of large commercial load, long range, low noise, comfortable and spacious cockpit, light workload for the driver, safe and reliable system, and low cost of use.

It widely adopts advanced technology in its design. Its high-performance rotor blades, aerodynamic optimized fuselage, cockpit with modern human-machine interface characteristics, large field of view windshield and spacious cockpits, etc. have been learned by many helicopters.

And it just so happens that this helicopter is in the exhibition hall of their company. If he is interested, he can go and take a look.

Kato recommended the luxury version of ec-145 to Wang Bo, which uses a large number of products and designs provided by Mercedes-Benz. In the past, the target of sales was only for customized and noble users, and they were not allowed to buy it with money.

Wang Bo and Eva followed him to the exhibition hall, where there was a row of helicopters. The ec-145 was in the middle position. The length of the fuselage was thirteen meters and the maximum width was two meters. The body curve was smooth, the curve was smooth, and it was very beautiful.

Kato introduced: "The cabin of this aircraft has been changed. What you see is a new cabin, and the design is inspired by the new Mercedes-Benz R-series models."

He said as he opened the door and pressed a button from the cab, and a folding escalator fell from the hatch door.

Wang Bo went in and saw that the helicopter interior was very luxurious, all wrapped in brown leather, with thick blankets on the ground, a large LED HD TV screen in front, and a matching 3D surround speaker.

Its seat is a feature, using a unique module design, and the seats are fridges inside, which can be spliced ​​with each other, so that the cargo space and personal space in the cabin can be flexibly adjusted.

When you open the carpet, there is not a steel body under it, but a warm wooden floor. The ceiling above the head adopts overall lighting, which means that the entire ceiling is filled with lamps, and there are more than 20 types of lighting.

Wang Bo looked at Eva and asked, "What do you think?"

Eva sat in a wide seat and tried it, smiling and said, "Its maximum take-off weight is three and a half tons. In this way, our family can bring Xiao Wang and others with us and some delicious food when traveling. I think it's pretty good."

The price of this helicopter is 6.8 million dollars, which is a slight meaning to Wang Bo now. Since Eva likes this helicopter, he nodded and said yes.

Cato smiled and said, "I guess you'll like it too. Who wouldn't like a luxurious sky palace? Come on, two, you can choose the interior decoration style with me."

Helicopters are different from cars. Because the price is too high, the helicopter branch will not press the goods. If there is a demand, they will submit orders to the general factory, and it also involves decoration issues.

After spending half an afternoon, Wang Bo and Eva settled the helicopter decoration problem and handed over the rest to the helicopter company.

In addition to the helicopter, he also wants to buy a business jet and a fixed-wing business jet.

New Zealand is a major aviation power with a developed domestic aviation industry and the models of aviation aircraft are very complex.

Fixed-wing aircraft prices range from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of millions of aircraft, mainly functional aircraft, such as those used in agriculture, fishery or inspections, and are mostly single-engine.

As we all know, all the power of an aircraft when flying comes from the aircraft's engine. Relying on the powerful thrust or pulling force provided by the engine, the aircraft generates forward power, increases the flow rate of the airflow on the surface of the wing and generates sufficient lift, so that the aircraft can fly in the air.

"Single-engine" generally refers to the number of aircraft engines, with only one engine. Wang Bo does not want to buy such aircraft. If the engine stops in the air, the single-engine aircraft will have to crash.

He bought this plane for his family to use in the future and to enjoy life. He didn't want the family to fall to the ground one day while flying.

Lao Wang wants to buy a multi-engine business jet, which is usually two engines. Even if there is only one engine in the air, the aircraft can still have enough power to maintain a certain flight altitude and speed, and then implement safe landing.

Kato helped him contact the aircraft agent. Although he only works in helicopter sales, he is a well-known figure in the Air New Zealand Association and has a wide connection.

The price of multiple-transit business jets basically starts from $4 to $5 million. Wang Bo and Eva accompanied him to meet the plane agent, and then began to talk about the plane he wanted to buy.

The agent told him that in order to be safe and comfortable, he would naturally prefer the Boeing family, the Airbus family and the Gulfstream family.

However, the aircraft of these families are valuable, often worth tens of millions of dollars, such as Gulfstream g600, Challenger 650, Global 7000 and Global 8000, etc.

Business jet business is bigger than helicopters, the market is bigger, and everything is more formal.

When Wang Bo and Eva listened to the agent's introduction to these planes, they were wearing VR video glasses and sitting on a chair, but they saw these planes in the real scene.

These video resources are all made at a high price. When watching the plane, it seems like you are really near and inside the plane, and the reality is very restored.

Wang Bo thought it was more troublesome to choose a big airplane, but with these video resources, it was easier to buy it.

The agent and Kato were responsible for the explanation, the couple were responsible for the selection, and President Bathir also contacted them an old pilot as a helper, and both parties kept telephone communication.

After comparison and analysis, Wang Bo took a fancy to Lille 40xr business aircraft, a member of the Bombardier family and the best light jet today, which is better than his competitors in almost all levels.

The Lille 40xr inherits the high standard configuration of the Bombardier family and can provide passengers with unexpected comfort and luxury.
