Mitsubishi Aircraft a prezentat recent fuselajului avionului de transport regional MRJ.
Niponii au pregatit special acest eveniment pentru presa, jurnalistii fiind invitati la fabrica Mitsubishi Heavy Industries din Tobishima, acolo unde au putut vedea patru sectiuni ale fuselajului lui MRJ.
Cele patru sectiuni nu au fost conectate, insa au fost asezate pentru ca cei prezenti sa isi faca o idee destul de clara despre cum vor arata dupa asamblare.
Mai mult, in fata sectiunilor a fost amplasata si aripa stanga.
Primul prototip MRJ se apropie cu pasi repezi de data primului zbor, asamblarea finala urmand a incepe in finalul anului 2013. Reamintim ca in aceasta vara Mitsubishi a anuntat ca a amanat primul zbor pentru prima jumatate a anului 2015, dupa mai multe intarzieri in programul MRJ.
Iata si cateva imagini cu fuselajul lui MRJ:

In an media event organised at Mitsubishi Heavy Industries’ Tobishima facility, journalists could see four parts of the MRJ fuselage. These parts were not assembled, but they were arranged in a way that everyone could imagine how the fuselage will look.
Near the fuselaje was sitting MRJ’s left wing.
Final assembly of the first prototype RJ will begin this year, but the first flight is scheduled for the first half of the year 2015.
Here are some photos from the event organised by Mitsubishi:
