How L-410 aircraft are made in the Czech Republic helio wrote in December 4th, 2013

L-410 UVP-E20 is a universal twin-engine aircraft of Czech production for local airlines, accommodating 19 passengers. Designed for operation on unprepared dirt, grass, snow areas, as well as on airfields with short runways (about 600-700 meters), which, in fact, makes it an aircraft in the “off-road” category. The first flight of the L-410 was made on April 16, 1969. The main customer of the aircraft was Soviet Union. In addition, the L-410 was also supplied to Bulgaria, Brazil, Hungary, East Germany, Libya, and Poland. Despite the fact that the plant is located in the Czech Republic, it considers itself part of the Russian aircraft industry: the foundations for this were laid during its development and during its long history of operation. As of 2012, more than 400 L-410 aircraft are in operation around the world.

Production site of Aircraft Industries in Kunovice, Czech Republic.
The Aircraft Industries plant, better known under the Let Kunovice brand, is located 300 km from Prague. The plant employs 920 people.
The company produces aircraft through a full production cycle - it has its own lines for surface treatment of materials, paint and varnish production, a machine shop, assembly shops, a design bureau and an airport.

L-410 fuselage parts production workshop. The enterprise is expanding and modernizing production - light green equipment is intended for the production of a new generation of the L-410 NG (New Generation) aircraft.
The plant's production capacity is 16-18 new aircraft per year.
About 80% of aircraft are supplied to Russia. Over the past four years, 35 aircraft have been delivered to Russia.

In one half of the building there are two production lines for new L-410 aircraft, in the second half there is a service workshop for aircraft coming out of service.

There are about 10 aircraft in the assembly shop at the same time. The fuselage, wing, end tanks and tail unit come to the beginning of the line from the paint shop.
At the end of the line are aircraft undergoing flight tests and preparing for delivery to customers.
Over the entire history of its existence, the plant has produced over 1,150 aircraft of the L-410 family.
More than 850 of them were delivered to operators in the USSR.

Five-blade AV-725 propellers (Avia Propeller) together with a GE H80-200 engine make up the new power plant aircraft L-410 UVP-E20. It has been installed on all new aircraft since January 2013 and is certified by EASA and the Russian AR MAK.
Young people in production are not uncommon, also due to the presence of its own vocational technical school on the territory of the plant.
The average age of the company's employees is 44 years.

Work on the GE H-80 engine, carried out by a representative of GE Aviation Czech, Prague (former Walter plant).

The final installation stage takes about 5 months - this is the most expensive part of production, as within its framework, engines, landing gear and all avionics are installed on the aircraft, where each individual unit can cost 100-250 thousand Euros.
The total duration of the aircraft production cycle from the production of the first components the fuselage takes just under a year to complete flight testing.

Cockpit of the L-410 UVP-E20 aircraft.
The aircraft is fully equipped for instrument flight and has an advanced Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) and TCAS II. The L 410 is designed in the metric system (rather than inches), which is an exception in Western aviation.

This type of aircraft has been used for many years as a graduation aircraft for training pilots at the Sasovo Flight School of Civil Aviation (Ryazan region).

IN Sverdlovsk region at the “Uktus” site of the special economic zone (SEZ) “Titanium Valley” a workshop for localizing the production of L-410 aircraft was opened, reported the regional information policy department.

On Ural soil it is just spreading its wings, but even standing in the factory hangar, the L-410 with its proud appearance shows that this iron bird is high-flying. The aircraft is intended primarily for emergency services.

Very soon, twin-engine L-410* aircraft will depart on their first flight. Representatives of the Russian Ministry of Defense, the State Aviation Administration, employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and disaster medicine will fly on them. Russian and foreign airlines have already shown interest in such technology.

The production of L-410 aircraft in the Urals should be a boost for Sverdlovsk industry. A production localization workshop was opened on the basis of the Ural Civil Aviation Plant. This is the site of the second stage of the Titanium Valley SEZ. One of the first to visit the aircraft, while there were no flights yet, was Deputy Russian Minister of Industry and Trade Oleg Bocharov.

The Ural enterprise will supply 20 L-410 aircraft to China >>

Oleg Bocharov, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of Russia: “ The plane is comfortable, reliable and made in cooperation with other enterprises. In fact, the Urals become the center for the integration of this aircraft, creating modern mobile aviation companies around it. And in the near future an aviation cluster will appear here».

The compact cabin can accommodate no more than 20 passengers. The flight range, by pilot standards, is small - only 1,500 kilometers. However, the aircraft is capable of taking off from airfields with short runways, only 550 meters, and landing on soil, water or a snow-covered area.

Evgeniy Sergeev, director of the Aircraft division of the Ural Civil Aviation Plant: “ The plane can land on soft ground; special landing gear is installed. To land on snow, airplanes are made with ski landing gear. This aircraft is designed to provide connections to remote areas that do not have high-quality runways.».

The regional authorities made the decision to establish production of twin-engine aircraft back in 2015. They are manufactured in the Czech Republic, but it is the Russian assembly that will give the car the characteristics that domestic customers need. The demand for a small-sized and inexpensive airliner for local airlines is already extremely high. So far they plan to produce 30 aircraft a year, but the queue for them is scheduled for years in advance. The new production complex will also produce Diamond DA 42 aircraft and Bell-407 helicopters.

A Russian aircraft plant has created carbon fiber wings for the MC-21 that are better than those of the Boeing 787 >>

The workshop was erected in less than a year, which was facilitated by interaction with regional and federal authorities, noted UWCA General Director Vadim Badekha. " The main thing is that production and life are already in full swing here. Over the past three years, we have created more than 500 jobs at this site, and now the fact that we have received additional capacity will allow us to create at least 500 more jobs within two to three years. Well, and increase the volume of equipment produced and the level of localization", noted Badeja.

According to him, now the localization level reaches about 35%. " By the end of 2021, the localization level will reach 72%. We consider it ineffective to further deepen localization, because we are localizing the high-tech components of this aircraft - something that is truly technology-rich, cost-effective, and allows us to gain additional competence", he explained to reporters.

Alexey Orlov, First Deputy Governor of the Sverdlovsk Region: “ Aircraft manufacturing is a completely new industry, new competencies, and a personnel training system. We are with ours educational institutions We are working on these issues. Small businesses will join aircraft manufacturers. Today we looked at seat manufacturers that have proven themselves in the foreign market».

Before the new year, the plant will put five L-410 aircraft on the wing. Each of them will go to customers to fulfill their mission and, perhaps, with their help, they will save someone’s life or quickly deliver important cargo to the impenetrable taiga.

Production of fifth generation aviation radars has begun in Russia >>

The Russian Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company (UMMC) has decided to become the sole owner of the production of the small local aircraft Let L-410, also known as the “Turbolet”. To achieve this, UMMC is going to increase its own share in the stake in the Czech company Aircraft Industries from 51% to 100%, ITAR-TASS agency reports. The L-410 aircraft is considered by the Russian side as the main model for modernizing regional aviation fleets and restoring the network of local airlines. It is expected that leasing of new aircraft will be carried out with budget support. The heads of Russian regions are going to determine specific mechanisms for this support at a meeting in September 2013.

Currently, the main product of the Czech airline is the L-410UVP aircraft. This model is a short-haul aircraft with a short takeoff and landing distance for 19 passengers. The first modification of the Let L-410 aircraft took to the skies back in 1969. In the post-war years, the Czech “Turbolet” became the first foreign aircraft to fly on Soviet airlines. Based on this machine, it was created a large number of various modifications for transport, military and special purposes. In particular, this aircraft is widely used in Russian military and civilian flight schools, where it serves to train future military transport and long-range aviation pilots.

After the transfer of 51% of the shares of the Czech enterprise into the hands of UMMC, the Czech aircraft manufacturer received additional orders for its main product - L-410 UVP-E20. In 2009, after a fairly long break, aircraft deliveries to Russian customers resumed - first to civilian companies, and later to the Russian Ministry of Defense. As of 2012, the Russian Air Force had 7 L-410 UVP-E20 aircraft in service, while the concluded contracts and option provide for increasing the fleet of these aircraft to 15 aircraft.

Today, Aircraft Industries supplies regions of Russia with a modernized version of the aircraft, which is equipped with H-80 turboprop engines, which are produced by a General Electric division in the Czech Republic. According to UMMC, the installation of these engines significantly improved the aircraft's operational characteristics, increasing, in particular, the flight range from 1,420 to 1,520 kilometers. Currently, the L-410 aircraft is listed in the parks Russian companies"KrasAero" and "Orenburg". The Buryat airline PANH and the government of the Khabarovsk Territory are ready to purchase several aircraft. Earlier, the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia stated that 9- and 19-seat aircraft are needed to develop the domestic air transportation market, but such modifications are not produced in Russia.

Let L-410 “Turbolet” is a Czechoslovakian, later Czech twin-engine universal aircraft intended for operation on local airlines. It is a twin-engine turboprop high-wing aircraft with a single-fin tail. Also known under the names: Let, Let L-410, L-410, Turbolet, Elka, Cheburashka. As of 2012, more than 400 aircraft of this type were in operation around the world.

The most common version of the aircraft was the L-410UVP modification; in this version, the takeoff and landing distance of the aircraft was reduced. The abbreviation UVP means “short takeoff and landing.” The aircraft of this modification first took to the skies back in 1976. Initially, the machine was equipped with a conventional set of Soviet-Czechoslovak-made aviation equipment. The model differed from its predecessors in the increased dimensions of the wing and vertical tail, an extended fuselage, the use of spoilers and more efficient engines.

The small passenger aircraft L-410 “Turbolet” was designed by the designers of the Let company in 1966-1967, work on the project was headed by Ladislav Smrček. It was assumed that this aircraft could be used in a fairly wide temperature range from +50 to -40 degrees Celsius. Czech specialists were guided by Soviet technical specifications and took into account in advance the difficult climatic conditions of operating the aircraft in the USSR, which was to become the main customer of the aircraft.

In total, by the end of 1978, 100 L-410M/MU aircraft were purchased from the USSR for the Ministry of Civil Aviation. In the Soviet Union, “Turbolets” replaced the famous “corn trucks” of Antonov, which transported unpretentious Soviet passengers on the air pits of local air lines. It is worth noting that the pilots who were “transferred” from the An-2 to the L-410 perceived the newcomer in two ways. On the one hand, the Czech aircraft had many advantages. Firstly, it had 2 engines, it won 2 times in safety. The plane had a set of modern navigation and radio equipment, and a high level of comfort was provided for passengers... But, on the other hand, for pilots of the civil air fleet, the An-2 has always remained the free “gasoline breadwinner” of their personal “Zhiguli” and “Volga” , while the Czech plane was flying on kerosene. And the An-2 was a more unpretentious machine in operation. More precisely, the flight technical personnel treated the issues of operating the Soviet An-2 much more simply. In general, it was considered very prestigious to change from the An-2 to the Czech L-410.

Currently, a version of the L-410 UVP-E20 aircraft is being produced in the Czech Republic, which can be equipped with analogue or digital avionics (customer's choice), a TCAS mid-air collision avoidance system and an autopilot. The L-410 UVP-E20 aircraft received the IAC AR certificate.

Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Russian Federation Andrey Boginsky held a regular meeting in Yekaterinburg on localizing the production of L-410 aircraft in the Sverdlovsk region, as well as on the creation of the second stage of the Titanium Valley special economic zone based on Uktus airport.

The event was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation, the State Transport Leasing Company, Rosaviation, the Chairman of the Government and the Minister of Industry and Science of the Sverdlovsk Region, CEO Ural Civil Aviation Plant and representative of UMMC-Holding.

“The Sverdlovsk region has serious potential and enormous opportunities and has a strong partner in the person of the Ural Civil Aviation Plant, which, according to the concluded contracts, will deliver the first four L-410 aircraft this year, we have no doubt about it, and for our part we will do everything, to create conditions for starting production"

“Today we must finally determine the timing of the implementation of the second stage of the Titanium Valley project and the construction of L-410 aircraft. The second task that we have is to connect the L-410 project with the Il-114 project, the decision to finance which was made by the President of Russia,” said Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Andrei Boginsky in his opening remarks.

It was noted that the resolution of land and property issues at the Uktus airport and adjacent areas, necessary for the creation of the second stage of the Titanium Valley SEZ, is proceeding according to the approved schedule. This year in the reconstructed production buildings airport, the Ural Civil Aviation Plant should assemble the first four L-410 aircraft, and also create capacities for localizing production: by 2017 - at the level of partial replacement with its own avionics systems, by 2019 - complete replacement with its own equipment and modification of the landing gear, by 2020 – remotorization, production of aircraft engines in cooperation between factories in the Sverdlovsk region.

A. Boginsky instructed to formulate a concept for connecting the localization project for the L-410 aircraft and the production of the Il-114 aircraft within two weeks and drew attention to the need to take into account long term perspective. “I understand that the deadlines are very tight. It is necessary to look at the structure of support measures so that the project is effective not only at the stage of aircraft production, but also in further operation, and most importantly, so that flights on the L-410 are affordable for consumers. To support demand for L-410, the Ministry of Transport, together with the Ministry of Industry and Trade, has done a lot of work. We have received a request from the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, we understand that there is a potential order for about 80 aircraft,” he said.

Subsidies from the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation for the creation of production of L-410 aircraft in Yekaterinburg in 2016 could amount to up to 530 million rubles.

“The Sverdlovsk region has serious potential and enormous opportunities. We have a strong partner in the Ural Civil Aviation Plant, which, under the concluded contracts, will deliver the first four L-410 aircraft this year, we have no doubt about it. For our part, we will do everything to create conditions for the launch of production. At Innoprom, I think, we will discuss in detail the new tasks of connecting our L-410 project and the Il-114 project in order to fulfill the task set by the president and support the domestic aircraft industry and domestic air transportation with our aircraft while the Il-114 aircraft is being created “said the chairman of the regional government, Denis Pasler.

Governor of the Sverdlovsk Region Evgeny Kuyvashev emphasized that Titanium Valley is unique in several respects. Firstly, this is the most important project for the country, because the specialization of the zone is associated with the production of titanium products, modern equipment for metallurgy, mechanical engineering, space and aviation industries - industries that have undergone rapid development. The industry focus of the zone is titanium production, which has no competitors in Russia. In terms of technology and specialization, Titanium Valley is focused on high-tech processing and the creation of world-class competitive products.

The second most important aspect of project implementation, according to the head of the region, is intensification economic development two largest agglomerations of the Middle Urals: Nizhny Tagil, where the first stage of the “Titanium Valley” is located, and Yekaterinburg, where the second stage has been laid, the press service of the Ministry of Industry and Trade reported.

Description

Aerodynamic design

Classic. It is a twin-engine turboprop high-wing aircraft with a single-fin tail.

Modifications

• L-410UVP- a short-haul passenger aircraft, a modification of the L-410 aircraft, in which the takeoff and landing distance is reduced. The abbreviation “UVP” means “short takeoff and landing.” The first launch took place in 1976. The aircraft is equipped with a conventional avionics complex of joint Soviet-Czechoslovak production. This aircraft differs from previous versions by an elongated fuselage, increased wing and vertical tail dimensions, the use of spoilers and a more powerful engine.
• L-410NG - further development L-410UVP-E20, is distinguished by the presence of integral wing tanks, which almost doubled the capacity of the fuel system and accordingly increased the flight range. More powerful engines were installed, the volume of the front luggage compartment was increased, and the cockpit was equipped with the most modern avionics. Planned to launch mass production modifications by 2017.
