China's 05 L-15 "Falcon" advanced trainer aircraft made a successful maiden flight today
At 10:20 on June 8, 2009 hours, China's self-L15 Falcon 05 senior trainer Qingyunpu airport in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province made a successful maiden flight, marking the aircraft industry by Jiangxi Hongdu Aviation Industry Group Co., Ltd. (referred to in the aviation industry Hongdu) assumed L15 Falcon aircraft development work into the identification of the upcoming test phase. China Aviation Industry Corporation party secretary, Lin Zuo Ming, general manager of the maiden flight of the ceremony in person and issued orders to release.

9:58, From the runway to a huge roar of the engine and then saw a blue and white paint, with a falcon logo 05 senior trainer, from the northern end of the runway, like an arrow out of take-off line, head flew up into the blue sky of the motherland. Two aircraft pass in different high courts, the flight 20 minutes later, adding to land routes, to a beautiful land safely at high angles of attack.

The implementation of the mission's chief pilot Yangyao, Guoyanbo Hongdu in the aircraft industry, surrounded by groups of workers to the ceremony Jianbu Taiwan, Lin Zuo Ming, general manager of the report of the first flight of 05 aircraft were completed as planned, the plane of the system as usual. LIN Zuo-ming, general manager of the site address to the test and Hongdu Group expressed warm congratulations on the cadres and workers, the scene suddenly jubilant together to celebrate the successful maiden flight of Falcon 05.

L15 Falcon advanced trainer aircraft with 05 aircraft made a successful maiden flight, China Aviation Industry Hong 01,03,05 already have three Falcon L15 prototype test. At present, 01, 03 flights have launched a series of research and prototype test results showed that the normal work of the aircraft systems, aerodynamic platforms and excellent flight performance has been verified. Falcon 05 for further optimization of the use of maintenance requirements, closer to users needs. Been properly adjusted in the post-test 05, 03 and about to enter the identification of aircraft flight test phase with and in a state of complete basic AJT technical appraisal.

L15 Falcon senior trainer at the beginning of the design has been adopted in the development of the idea of seriation. Type coach at this stage include AJT (senior coach) and LIFT (fighting induction training) two states. AJT state the use of non-afterburner engine, a major commitment to improve the technical and basic tactical flying training mission. LIFT state and increase the use of afterburner engine associated with the tactical training systems and equipment, aircraft and is mainly responsible for the use of tactics such as flight and combat training. In 03, 05 aircraft AJT technology to identify the basic state at the same time, China Aviation Industry Hongdu L15 aircraft also are stepping up the development of LIFT status.

Falcon is a senior trainer of the R & D operations in the new environment and advanced combat aircraft in service training of pilots against the background of higher demand started. The aircraft has an excellent platform and with three-axis pneumatic four-wire flight control redundancy systems, rehabilitation of low-cost combat aircraft is the flight performance, a new generation of fighter aircraft with similar flight performance and maneuverability, to meet the pilots training needs; the use of two turbofan engines and the backup system designed to provide Falcon with higher security and reliability; up to 10,000 flying hours of its service life and low life-cycle cost, you can significantly reduce the pilot's training costs. The aircraft has a strong potential for development, to continuously expand to meet future user needs, can be realized based on the present, future-oriented, serialization of the design concept development.

It is learned that the Falcon 05 aircraft will be flying out of the country in November this year to participate in Dubai International Air Show and so the flight performance, the overseas merchants to display the fine performance of Falcon, and actively expand the international market.

Plane AJT are 03,05, and the use of non-afterburner engine, a major commitment to improve the technical and basic tactical flying training mission. The photo shows the prototype test 03.

L-15 not only significantly reduce training costs, and have improved the potential of attack aircraft
