Opening a new market niche is akin to finding navigator, when, after months of razglyadyvaniya endless ocean surface, batman suddenly vskrikivaet: «Land!». In this age of satellites and vsevedayuschih bathyscaphe seemingly senseless to begin the search for «terra incognito», as well as the puzzle over excogitation hitherto unclaimed human needs. While advances such as computer hardware, Internet and cellular communications, all give the same hope for another latent consumer vozzhelany. Small and medium business easier: at the crossroads of different sectors always appear different «void», which quickly filled with what a PC, or PBOYUL LLC. But where to put their energies and free finance «Sharks Enterprise»? Buying jewelry, football clubs and the lunar craters boring and autocratic thrones at all lacking (cap Monomakh and do one!), So that the same orders to do with overly assigned «added value»? - Command: to invest in aviation! Well, that's you, and once - think many educated members of society and will be ready to move on to explore other material, but we do ask that they read this article until the end - if only out of principle. So, the initial disappointment of our offer is quite clear: what is the point to put money into a half-industries with obsolete equipment and technology, in the absence of competitive development, and highly skilled (especially engineering staff)? For comparison: the overproduction of foreign civil aircraft is 30% and the market protectionist at all levels! Fatality of the civil aircraft industry is not in doubt even among the illiterate Zulu ... However, air, bad or good, in contrast to the water and the more roads (Russia is not alone), there are at any point on our planet. And in peak liquid oceans, and he settled much more modest. However, a lively European AVIATRASSY already cut into lanes for the 300 meters, but it is at heights of 5 to 11 km. But up to 5000 meters - a small area of aviation, and which will be discussed. In Samara, after the collapse of the local aircraft factory on the classical scheme «like it better, but it was stolen to us» nostalgiruyuschih dispersed a group of specialists, really keen air, created several for the production of small aircraft and gidroplanov with a capacity of 1 ... 6. Show of all kinds in the air - this is still the only practical application of this mode of transport, although the alleged market potential is high. On the weak sales results and the lack of effect of legislative base for small aircraft, and low reliability of products, in principle, handicraft production, its high cost to interested consumers who still need to learn how to manage such a technique ... In general, here, without a grand national "project" can not do, as much public money we are able to divide and distribute to all levels of government ... until they reach uspeyut! For national project requires not less than the global issues that he would finally decide, and not as in the case of the "ungrateful" by teachers and physicians: how many or give all little! There "we have": poaching (especially fishing), search in distress sailors, climbers, polar explorers, etc., shipping them purveyance and means of salvation; monitoring of volcanic activity, forest fires, the spread of pests and control, protection of thousands of kilometers (!) boundaries, marine fisheries, search and eradication of narcotic plants ... The list may be supplemented with less urgent problems, which disturbed all of us. So, how is proposed to cope with all the horde "obkurennyh poachers for insects? It's very simple - with the help of small unmanned aerial vehicles (BPLA)! "Wait, where you pilot Delhi? - You ask. And whether it was a boy, or rather, as we want the human factor? The pilot and his life support system for airplanes takes considerable lift manned vehicle, and the crew participated in the management of modern aircraft is reduced to a minimum: "Feed the passengers, then Autopilot and let the other button!" Let not resent these pilots for this profanation of their work - are, of course, extraordinary events, and electronics makes failures - your professionalism is invaluable. But, putting your hand on your heart, you still agree with this, the grotesque overdone, the definition of ... Pilots will have to retrain operators of the remote control BPLA, which, however, can and should become a clerk. Judge for yourself: before taking off BPLA it should only enter the program (containing the goal, the route and altitude), which will automatically register on the internet in the regional center of a small aircraft (to be established under the Project) to reduce the risk of clashes and attacks. Tracking of BPLA and claimed the route will be on radio positioning system GLONASS and GPS, as well as radar installations. Consider how specific applications. Suppose a farmer (or big agriculture) need to feed the plants or to process the fields with pesticides, to determine the degree of germination and grain maturity, condition of pasture, etc. It establishes situational BPLA equipment and loads on the route of flight (as you understand the detailed three-dimensional map of the region and radiomayachki - they have the same base stations of mobile operators - is one of the conditions for the functioning of the system), and then, sitting in a cozy place with a glass ... pair of milk and the laptop takes streaming video (via cellular 3 - or 4G) and technological parameters of the flight. At the end of the flight BPLA automatic landing near the hangar and the cycle repeats itself again ... Or is it to protect its oil pipelines take a hundred or two squadrons of these BPLA: here the system in general can work in automatic mode, as the pipe itself is a good guide, but any movement near it, or a temporary change in the landscape (defined by programs such as FineReader) would be regarded as an unlawful intrusion into economic activities. Here to punish lihodeev may be useful for 30-mm Paintball gun - as she and her younger analogue to shoot color balls using compressed air. Balls can be filled with not only color but also the bad smelling repellent composition for the sound and the subsequent search for the ill-pokusiteley ... The same weapons will help to fight poachers of all stripes in the spawning rivers and maritime economic space: balls with low production of pig waste to the environment, but the appetite otobyut long, together with those parts of the torso, in which they land. To patrol the borders of Muslim countries this is an indispensable weapon: there is unlikely to want to illegally cross the border, knowing that they can be "anointed" is not God ... The legality of using such systems to be confirmed by law that can be linked to the security of state borders - there will be no adverse opinion. If you have any problems with the Duma, it is necessary to immediately conduct among MPs championship this air battle, where they will be performing virtual pilots operating in the "combat" aircraft in real time. Will win, of course, "United Russia" (put polgonorara!), But similar battles for oil, gas, MOE and the border guards will become regular. Do not dare to insist, but the major organizations will use these guns in their battles: counting colored spots on BPLA "enemy" they would find child fun ... Then draw aliens, which besides the exotic Far North, and skating at the Reindeer will be entertained in this way. For puschego entourage fights should take place among historic rivals: the British and French, the French and Germans, Greeks and Turks, Americans and ... the entire planet. Hone their skills before the real "Sparing" wishing to be able in a computer game simulating the behavior of fully BPLA and his arms (begin with a tube with peas, and the highest level - KPVT caliber machine gun 14.5 mm). Thus, advertising costs are minimized, and there is another source of income. In 2020, you can request to air fights on BPLA Olympic disciplines in the list (if the Olympic Committee refused to - see the "medicine" above!), And it is our Pokryshkin "not podkachayut! Children will go back in patriotic circles, but not in line with the swastika. Their parents get new jobs (and old will take the Chinese). Cellular operators are finally acquire market for their services, 3 (4) generation. Programmers and epektronschikam is also where the head and hands to make nebezvozdmezdno! The state will be satisfied with "modest" tax fees, and social stability, the reduction of drug abuse and trafficking in the shadow of fishing of caviar. MOE and the Ministry of Defense is also pleased to universal intelligence officer rescue, and manufacturers of plastic windows can find a use after the fall in demand for their main products. What are the windows? - Yes, it is time to present a hero of our story: BPLA unique with a unique engine and control system. Why are all unique, ie first created? Reply to this question can be very simple - you need a revolutionary leap forward for a new consumer quality. The project cost of the airframe is expected in the range of 10 thousand rubles (no wrappers!), And the engine - 5000 EUR! Avionics and telemetry systems at mass production of enough amount of these assemblies. As a result BPLA from simple false weight to cost in the 50 thousand .. rub. Moreover, it will be a universal device with the possibility of seasonal work: in spring for spawning fish, summer on the peasant fields of poppy and cannabis in the winter to Avalanching passes ... The greater part of the airframe parts to be producing extrusion of PVC (polyvinyl chloride), as an ordinary window or wall profiles. This material has sufficient strength and fire resistance, chemically inert and allows re-processing. In addition, there is an advanced raw materials, production technology well-equipped with modern equipment, trained personnel, etc. Engine kulisny, with self-compression of special fuel (low-cost and environmentally friendly almost), air-cooled and supercharged. Due to its low cost and small malodetalnostyu resources, resource glider: about 5000 flight hours. Although the glider is hardly much "stretch": this term implies the order of 1000 take-offs and landings, while the latter will not always be "soft." But nothing prevents to move equipment and avionics for the new "skeleton" BPLA that cheaper operating costs. Load capacity of the first modifications to be up to 150 ... 200 kg. This is quite enough for many uses; cruising speed - 80 ... 100 km / h. Runway does not require special training, but should be sufficient length of 100 ... 200 meters. Once the fuel BPLA will have a buoyancy, a special version of hydroplane - and podavno. In serial production of 20 thousand units per year, you can quickly cover their own needs and export the surplus. Small-scale renewable resource will contribute to the production, so that this segment of the market stagnation is not threatened. Undoubtedly, investment in the creation of the production BPLA repaid early, if it will be organized in one of the established technoparks. Do not be surprised if Moscow will again: it is ready all the available infrastructure and the anticipated smezhniki. Not enough has only two components: the General Designer of the topic and the general contractor willing to undertake the organization and financing of the project. However, with the designer of the issue is resolved, is to find people willing to write his name in the history of home, and perhaps the world, Aviation ... VV Sinitsa |
