in the eye of the storm new york city braces itself in the last approaching hurricane irene as all public transportation is shut down and president obama declares a state of emergency along the u.s. eastern seaboard. the republic of casa looks to its newly elected president to build the nation's economy which lies in a ruined southard year since struggling to maintain independence alexander robert bobb will have his hands full as he leads the country through the next five years. from now we'll look back and be international by annual air show marts to check out what's new in the world of aviation technology update is next.

welcome to technology update and welcome to mocks the world famous moscow air show where the planet's premier aerospace pioneers have come to show off their latest high flying hard supply water too deep for the best of the best to soar above the rest and the legendary coastie airfield in suburban moscow the very place named after an early russian aerodynamics genius this year was the tenth time around for this festival flight since it started making ninety three with over eight hundred companies representing thirty countries the biggest draw for the year shows more than half a million guests will surely be in-flight action movie business was also on the bill racking up some ten billion dollars in deals even with all the international big shots bringing their wares russia's open secret made the biggest bush the sukhoi cockfight t. fifty finally broke out from behind the closed doors covering its development flying for crowds in cameras for the first time it's a fifth generation stealth fighter jet propelled russia's air force deep into the

twenty first century each maxie's new headlines and highlights like this to hoist superjet in two thousand and nine or two thousand and eleven is already a new decade with new projects like a whole batch of a new mission cargo and passenger jets in russia's civil aviation pipeline. undoubtedly the most notable newcomer is here could see m c twenty one with a full scale cabin model on display for the very first time its final boarding call for a glimpse to the future of this short and mid-range commercial one. just single aisle narrow body can see twenty one is actually an emerging family two hundred three hundred and four hundred modifications forthcoming will be capable of transporting anywhere from one fifty to over two hundred passengers per flight at a range starting at thirty five hundred to five thousand kilometers potentially a to seven thousand in the future cabin designs are easily transformable to increase comfort working passage told order to make these planes into internationally competitive aircraft rests on the shoulders of the. corp on the

strength of over seventy five years at its factory in the siberian city of good cause the company hopes not only to bring in reinforcements today teaching to misstate to pull f. one five four fleets but also challenge the dominance of giants boeing and airbus in this market segment thankfully they're not starting from square one with a steady flow of skilled scientists and engineers from russian aerospace schools making the project all the more promising. we're designing this plane with a wide range of international partners inside russia this means working with research institutes for aero hadzic dynamics aviation materials and aviation technologies the state institute of aviation systems is helping design the airplanes digital components for a walk a familiar to n.c. twenty one will be offered with engine options either pratt and whitney s p w forty eight hundred g. or the specially designed new p.c. for teeth a project of russia's did me good to look around tusk is to provide the advantage

of cheap engines without compromising performance parameters and available resources most importantly in terms of the lifecycle cost as compared to our competitors abroad or the it's important to point out that we're regarding this engine as the plate full on the basis of which engines will be designed for the home line of these airplanes to p.t. fourteen is projected to meet and exceed international standards on fuel consumption emissions and noise pollution new engines are stored but they aren't the only innovation briefing for the year could jet. are leaving aerodynamics is it your psyche made a crucial contribution to this project their experts produced a new concept for wing design it has an altogether new profile for super critical airfoils all of their work helps greatly improve the plane's aerodynamics in addition to this super critical design the high wing aspect ratio on the wide reaching airplane is a further aerodynamic advantage but it's largely what the winds are made. champ's.

you can see a compass at wing books for the n c twenty one airliner if uses unique advanced technology what's called vacuum in fusion in a joint project between the name design an arrow come visit and the super oil companies designed you're on the russian side as well as ostrich fish and the material supply side of it from the us i think these materials and technologies have made it possible to improve the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing reduce its weight and as a result increase the airplane's fuel efficiency by up to twelve percent enough to assume there are an awful lot of parts that have to fall into place for a passenger plane to break into the cutthroat commercial market but the mc twenty one is already taking its first strides into a sunny future on board the prototype cabinet in moscow air show i could already get a feel for how a flight on that you could airliner might one day be automated latches opening oversize luggage bins spacious seats in both business and economy and of course

a screening every seat. as passengers we're most concerned with smooth sailing to our destination enhanced by every available amenity the carriers are all about the bottom line all three m. c twenty one models allow for everything from spacious mixed glass layouts to the cater tour operator scheme that makes the most out of every last row in any combination airplanes will remain wider than traditional single jets just enough extra aisle space to eliminate the annoying service cards squeezed by a drinks in meals time. thrown into flight deck pilots also enjoy every perk of twenty first century aviation with multi-functional l.c.d. output panels to integrate the latest in digitize flight controls. those pilot wings i defended thing runway obviously this model's not exactly here but here could explain it twenty one by twenty fourteen so there should be more progress to

. toward the next mux this year's most triumphal entry went to the brand new long awaited seventy seven dreamliner from boeing which has just wrapped up test flights for u.s. federal aviation administration certification at its home base outside seattle washington with one of the nine trial seventy seven is freed up for a short getaway mox visitors got a glimpse at the latest widebody boeing field is the company's most advanced most fuel efficient airplane ever and with russian flagship airline i upload said to take twenty two of the new dreamliner. crews from faraway seattle gave future customers a good preview of what the modern machine is capable of. it was a very enjoy a bowl of easy flight we used a lot of the automation on the airplane to make the pilot work load always do little as possible. so the heart of course was used auto throttles use this monitor through those systems the airplane isn't quick with some and b l c an automatic

promotion forty nine so for some cloak advantage over all those things we didn't have to make the standard position in force on the h.f. radio airplanes system did those reports course so very very enjoyable flight russian was hardly a brand of choice for the dreamliner visit as moscow is home to boeing's biggest engineering office outside the u.s. the eleven hour time difference from the west coast headquarters to russia's capital means the company has around the clock engineering operations with an aerospace tradition they grew up alongside and even at times ahead of the american and european schools russia provides a rich pool of specialists that was a big deal in developing the dreamliner so if you think about the russian contribution to this airplane i think that i would say that materials and.

two main areas. the partnership on russia made it possible for me probably little say that this airplane wouldn't happen with all of our russian partners in terms of design russian engineers complete claim to the nose cone structure that leads to seventy seven skyward they pitched in electrical systems or conditioning they designed a crucial d.t.h. of the wing that provides lift to the pylon for mounting the engines and even added some flair to the passenger friendly interior. when it comes to simply airplanes there are parts and then there are parts and it's largely thanks to unique new components that boeing is promising a twenty percent bump in efficiency they could help the dreamliner as operators cut two point four million dollars per plane per year this efficiency would be impossible without key parts like this body cord connecting the wind to diffuse allies made entirely of russian composite materials to source of these olympe order materials this would all boeing a joint venture between the aircraft company envious in p.o.v.

small producer of fully a quarter of the world's titanium is it would elbowing in russia good last region the unique titanium alloys are turned into the backbone of the seventy seven breakthroughs in material science achieved here are a major reason the world can expect lighter stronger more eco friendly airplanes in the coming years. we are no design in seven eight so in their snide that's the next minute occasional this airplane which will be bigger will carry more passengers up to eight hundred eighty passengers the longer distance that airplane. easer and train service in two years and where there would be the design of this airplane would also made a lot of the other the only interesting project he ate in moscow cold seven thoughts on this eight that brought it all goes in parallel with so it's now i'm in such the cation and flight tests and will continue to work on the improvements of

this era plays and i'm sure that there will be. interesting projects including the small airplanes that the washington that he has will continue to cope with for now all eyes are on the upcoming commercial goal out of the first three miners due within the next month for delivery to japanese carrier a.n.e. and that's just the beginning boeing racked up over eight hundred sales for the new standard bearing jet before it even made its first test flight so expect them soon in an airport near you not all of the new music box or commercial jetliners and for many the far flung sparsely populated russian regions bigger isn't necessarily better it's with an eye on regional small craft aviation it is a truck has been developed and it's already won attention and mocks for greater than its size the assembly lines that some are as say escape their progress help put the first soviet cosmonauts in orbit and propel generations of an era in space craft skyward for more than a half century of its history so it's an auspicious starting place for what will be the first post soviet small aircraft first serial production designed by engineers

at moscow based technology it's intended to combine modern performance and bionics with the rugged all condition reliability needed to serve russia's regions. no hell of a design as can be seen in several solutions employed on this if plane it is excellent i ever done it properties including the a for ensuring great performance even at low velocity its landing gear is very good and allows you to land the aircraft on some standard if fields the aircraft will stand strong winds very will be isometric engines also for very good performance which is particularly important for multi engine aircraft and also is a significant advantage in training aircraft. before riseth choke flew in to take its place in the air show in moscow we had a chance to climb aboard for one of its certification testing flights in the western russian city of somalia.

conditions at the former military airport are luxury as compared to the remote airstrips the research is built to access but it's a good base for monitoring in servicing the newborn aircraft while it gets its wings in the field it can take off and land from dirt lift off with one of its two engines disabled and provide crew and passengers with emergency oxygen if flight conditions demand a climb above thirty six hundred meters experience test pilot going of which the light airplane around curves with performance parameters to establish these trial flights are no relaxing cotto jump but once it makes muster with russian aviation regulators the first batch are due for delivery to a flight school in lenin's hometown of the. really stands out for its modern flight control equipment which in practice and i was eric had any students who have mastered this machine to transition easily to modern passenger jet line is. good

when recent show kids to market it won't just be raising a new generation of skilled pilots it will also help revive an important sector that suffered from post soviet anomic belt tightening and an aging fleet of light aircraft would reduce the choke and recent changes to air space regulations the range and flexibility of multi-purpose and general aviation should be back on russia's enormous map. this excessiveness a choke and a potential for expansion in russia's small aircraft sector has drawn interest and the involvement of some of the country's biggest producers that includes the new makers of many a mega engine now work on a domestic only bill tension. both at their mosque out airshow display in on their assembly lines salute is most distinguished for powering the skies bigger beasts in the soviet era there are fifteen three hundred push the record breaking maybe twenty five interceptor unprecedented speeds in altitude today they're updating and

repair. the engines from the a.o. thirty one f. family the boosters behind a big chunk of the russian air force fighter fleet. from sukhoi suit twenty seven to its descent in suit thirty two thirty three and suit thirty four salute also collaborates with ukrainian partners to power several large and tone of passenger and cargo planes as well as the firefighting fabian video from b. two hundred with all of that under their belt the company agreed to an order for what would become its first light airplane engine. how did salute come to the decision to expand from the production of engines for fighter jets into the arena of small aircraft has been able to prove the decision was made do to the existing need for a new engine in this class of the aircraft since the engines currently in use were designed back in one nine hundred seventy s. and accordingly it was quite obvious that the demand for a new engine will be high jus to improve technical and interracial performance as well as economic advantages resulting from the improved fuel consumption rates and

hans engine power performance that it used to turn a proxy five hundred this is just a reduction gear attached to the propeller the combustor the compressor and at the rear the accessory dear box of what's called the gas generator comprises both combustor a compressor essentially the heart of the engine. the guest generator is different because peace yet produced in cell use project for that is the choke turboprop engine along with it they develop a custom made experimental stand to confirm their balance for the appointed performance figures. since it is a choke is already flying on the check made him sick so one f. and might see a replacement from general electric stevie five hundred s. need specs to set it apart. here we join said use engineers to fire up the gas generator for another round of tests draw power is important but not the only

objective given recent shocks to me. muted stature a lighter less powerful engine it still has that thrust to provide a desired cruising speed in takeoff distance while guzzling less gas is a more profitable formula. so far seventeen seems to be the engines lucky number projected to be seventeen kilograms lighter than the walter model and you seventeen percent less fuel though it's still just a few years the t.v. five hundred s. is shaping up to be a highly competitive engine for small turbo prop planes so few technical solutions have laid a good foundation for the development of future engine right now we're talking about the gas generator but we're hopeful to complete development of a new engine by twenty twelve from the outset we've been developing our engines complete the old different technique for there is that shock aircraft project it could be used in patrol flights for example aerial monitoring of border areas for the mergence these ministries risky fleet full medical aid operations and we

expected to be in good demand for light transport aviation with a. side from trust rating journalists trying to make sense of it are piles of paper when there's an ever present variable in a ph for aircraft of all sizes for generations me kind has been playing and occasionally catastrophic keep losing a dangerous game with wind shifting weather systems every time we take to the skies fortunately now we're increasingly prepared with a face to keep us from getting away. when she or where we in changes in direction or speed over a short distance can quickly turn a smooth flight into a dangerous one given enough elevation pilots can easily recover but options are much more limited around takeoff and landing that's why russian scientists me how can you have steve has developed technology to provide pilots and air traffic controllers with improved wind shear warning must be able to know

a little when the atmosphere around their. it is unstable in some cases and airports have been built in places with complicated landscapes take for example hong kong where roughly one in every two hundred fifty landings and takeoffs is performed under hazardous wind shear conditions airports of defeater will be fully covered with advanced sensor equipment to map out wind and other hazards information that will help relieve congestion increase throughput a goldmine for the nation industry old school week your detection systems rely on it in a moment or simple wind gauges delight or when profiler three hundred yvel of russian firms laser systems aircraft engineering concern is ground based shooting laser beam skyward and then determining wind direction and speed by detecting the frequency of the backscatter light at least in principle one liner when profiler should give more detailed information over shorter distances crucial around airports and low flying aircraft and in several anemometer spaced out around the same territory. the task is actually quite simple our device here will now measure

the wind profile at an altitude of three hundred meters in the vicinity you can see a tower with special platforms where wind gauges like the one i'm holding are installed. you know most of us our goal is to prove that the measurements of our lead are wind profile or correspond to the measurements obtained through the sensors installed on this high meteorological tower. up against a whole host of spinning anemometers just one scanning module on the l d p three hundred is left to painting equally accurate picture of the window over this kaluga region test site the stakes are high since the losing system may soon be consigned to the dustbin of aviation history the physical benefits of replacing the towers in the already cluttered space around modern airports is obvious soon. missing the

ground the slider systems would also be less of a challenge but if the numbers don't back up the win profiling benefits then the towers are better left in place fortunately the new technology for perfectly and may soon be ready for full time action. conditions but the new course and the test have been completed successfully and most importantly in the near future we hope to get certified by the interstate aviation committee the organization that deals with equipment certification and once you've got us our task is to provide this equipment for russia's first winter detection system and install in bloody was talk which will be hosting next year's major international summit it was an obvious we should be we should ensure maximum flight safety for the high ranking castes and naturally all commercial passengers flying to and from vladivostok every day months edition two thousand and eleven features more than ten american military aircraft something unthinkable in moscow when this air show first opened nearly two decades ago improve relations i think that at least in four to

a multinational treaty and high flying surveillance technology this story starts in the darkest days of the cold war when an arms race and mutual suspicion held the world both east and west in a state of great tension moved by the constant threat of all out war in nuclear destruction what we're trying to do then you leave this great fear a surprise attack so now our allies are still proposing inspection of all was america not of the we brand. and all your. energy strain for a famous by colonel. anderson. that was eisenhower's mean message at the geneva summit of nine hundred fifty five but soviet and western leaders failed to agree on a mutual inspection regime and the idea was put on ice for a generation it was reborn in one thousand nine hundred two however as the treaty on the open skies the united states and russia were eventually joined by thirty two

others. signatories to date they've completed more than eight hundred fly overs and generated both valuable data and at prices boost in neutral relations then on thirty in a tuple of one five four have carried out most of russia's flights to date but like their counterparts in other countries the planes are cations aeronautical electronics are weaving company vega is responsible for bringing russia's open skies surveillance capacity into the twenty first century camera and sensor equipment allowed within the tree has to be fine tuned like maximum ground resolution for photo and video material strictly limited thirty centimeters. after years of work feed it came to moscow two thousand and eleven ready to hunt build their brainchild the first specifically built to believe to fourteen a west would be the most advanced aircraft in the history of the open skies tree. this beautiful aircraft is not simply the first plane in russia or any other treaty on the open skies countries that incorporates all types of equipment allowed for

use on board it's also automated to a remarkably high level the equipment is controlled electronically all the data displayed on the screen where they operate and monitors them. you're standing by the forward equipment by the aircraft will tickle electronic equipment isn't stools and while the tail compartment contains airborne ray does and the infrared camera the best place on board a plane is reserved for photo and video cameras because we expect them to give us the main bulk of information one fixed photo camera shoots directly below the a craft that one another one takes ten around the pitches plus two side view cameras and three video cameras all this photo and video surveillance equipment and neighbors us to cover a very large stretch of land and gives us a detailed picture of the landscape the aircraft causes of a photo a camera has a separate all to cope or protected by sliding doors that are designed to prevent good from sticking to the lenses during takeoff and landing generally speaking the

equipment. very reliable and fully automated. with the cameras and sensors installed in the plane's underbelly crewmen and women on board the planes operated them right from that tiny camera with a triple of two fourteen zero s is moved to remote control and automation lets the mission commander the individual camera operators and host country observers all sit comfortably in the passenger cabin up a little bit cooler where entering the compartment where the equipment operators sit. this is the key part of the plane because this is where we receive the desired information to go through you'll notice that there are two additional seats located behind each operator is satan who is he is there for the representatives of the country the plane is flying a. little to this is a necessary provision i'm just exercising constant control over the treaty flights in for a constant here is the equipment that operates the infrared camera and the radio national some mention that this is the first time in the history of the treaty on open skies that surveillance radar has been installed on board an aircraft so much

of the truth live to fourteen zero zero s. is already flight worthy and ready to fill all its treaty obligations a second plane is on the assembly lines set to join in the form of flights as soon as next year international observers who came to moscow agreed the plane is a big step to making sure this guy stable well and a future it's the end of an airshow here in moscow and the end of an era for technology of thing i'm off to get one of these jets back to the states but the rest of the take up team will be back next month with more from the ever changing world of russian animation two men enjoy the right.
