Air pride AN-225 "Mriya"
AN-225 "Mriya" (translated from Ukrainian - "Dream") is the hoisting heavy aircraft ever to take to the skies. Maximum take-off weight of the aircraft is 640 tons. The reason for the construction of An-225 aircraft was a need to create a transport system for the project of the Soviet space shuttle "Buran". The plane exists in a single copy.
From myself just amazed at the talent and genius of the creators of this powerful machine. And as we would not have to build the border between Russia and Ukraine, but these beauties. After all, they will always have work.

2.Samolet was designed and built in the USSR in 1988 at the Kiev Mechanical Plant.
"Mriya" set the world record take-off weight and payload. March 22, 1989 An-225 made the flight with a cargo of 156, 3 tons, beating the same time 110 world aviation records, which is a record in itself.
3.With the beginning of operation of the airplane flown 3740 hours. Assuming that the average speed of flight (including take-off, climb, cruise, descent, approach) is about 500 km / h, it is possible to calculate the approximate value of the distance covered: 500 x 3740 = 1.87 million kilometers (more than 46 turns around the Earth at the equator).
4.Masshtaby An-225 strike length of the aircraft - 84 meters, height - 18 meters (as a 6-storey building entrances 4)
5.Naglyadnoe comparison "Mriya" and passenger Boeing 747.
If we take the largest of the Boeing 747-800, the length of the An-225 is more than 8 meters, wingspan - 20 meters.
Compared with the Airbus A380 «Mriya" long by 11 meters and a wing span it exceeds it by almost 9 meters.
6.Sluchaetsya that airport parking is not appropriate for such a large aircraft, and it is put directly on the runway.
Of course, we are talking about a spare runway, if there is one at the airport.
7.Razmah wing is 88, 4 meters, and the area - 905 m²
The only aircraft that surpasses the AN-225 wing span, is Hughes H-4 Hercules, which belongs to a class of flying boats. The air boat rose only once, in 1947. The history of this aircraft is reflected in the film "The Aviator»
8.Tak himself spaceship "Buran" and block the carrier rocket "Energy" have dimensions exceeding the dimensions of the cargo compartment, "Mriya", the new cargo plane provided mounting outside. In addition, it was planned that the aircraft will be used as a first step at the start of the spacecraft.

Mentioned in the engraving Vladimir Vladimirovich Mason - Maintenance Engineer Sun, who for many years worked on "Mriya».
41.
42.Komandir aircraft (FAC) - Vladimir Y. Mosin.
In order to become the commander of the AN-225, you must have the experience of flying an airplane An-124 as a commander of at least 5 years.
43.Kontrol mass and balance is simplified by installing a chassis measuring system weight loads.
44.Ekipazh aircraft consists of 6 persons:
the aircraft commander, co-pilot, navigator, flight engineer senior, flight engineer on aircraft equipment, radio operator.
45.RUDy
To reduce the effort to improve the accuracy of the ores and setting modes of engine operation a system for remote control motors. In this pilot exerts relatively little force to move the cables by electromechanical lever device mounted on the engine, which reproduces it on movement of the fuel control lever with the required force and accuracy. For the convenience of co-management at takeoff and landing throttles outer engines (RUD1 and RUD6) engage respectively with RUD2 and RUD5.
46.Shturval control the largest aircraft in the world.
Control of the aircraft that the booster control surfaces are deflected solely by means of hydraulic steering gear failure which control the aircraft by hand (with an increase in the required effort) is not possible. Therefore applied quadruple redundancy. Mechanical control system (on the wheel and pedals to the hydraulic steering gear) consists of rigid rods and cables.
The total length of these cables is as follows: aileron control system in the fuselage - about 30 meters, each arm (left, right) wing - approximately 35 meters; elevator control system and the rudder - about 65 meters each.
47.Pri empty plane - for takeoff and landing quite 2400m runway.
Take-off with a maximum weight - 3500 m, with a maximum landing weight - 3300 m.
Enforcement begins 48.Na start warming up the engine, which takes minutes 10.
This prevents surging engine on takeoff and provides its maximum take-off thrust. Of course, this requirement leads to the fact that: the rise is performed in a minimal period of busy airport or airplane for a long time waiting for their turn to take off, skipping scheduled flights.
49.Skorost during takeoff and landing depends on the takeoff and landing weight of the aircraft and is 240 km / h to 280 km / h.
The height is set at a speed of 560 km / h, the vertical velocity of 8 m / s.
50.Na altitude of 7100 meters, the speed increases to 675 km / h with a further continuation of the climb to flight level.

59.VPP Athens Airport.
Landing at night "Mrie" performed instrumentally, t. E. The instrument, from the height and alignment to the touch - visually. According to the crew, one of the hardest landings - in Kabul, which is associated with high mountains and a lot of obstacles. Sunset start at a speed of 340 km / h to a height of 200 meters, then gradually speed fold.
60.
61.Iz the high cost of transportation of the An-225, the orders only appear for a very long and very heavy loads, when the transport land transport is impossible. Flights are random from 2-3 a month to 1-2 a year. Periodically there are talks about building a second copy of the An-225, but that requires the appropriate order and appropriate funding. To complete the construction needed sum roughly equivalent to $ 90 million, and with the test it increases to $ 120 million.
This is probably one of the most beautiful and impressive aircraft in the world.
