28 reporters from China’s representative office was informed that the IATA, the world’s first working day and night flying solar-powered aircraft have been successful in debut this sedova airport, it will in the absence of a state of non-polluting fuel flight. According to Picard, Inflatable Bouncers president of the project that will be carried out in 2012 is expected to flight, to achieve 36 hours of continuous flight. Global plan to stop flying the world’s five countries, China is one of a station there.
This project began in 2003. 70 After 6 years of intensive work, computing, simulation and testing of the plane has finally completed an unprecedented aircraft: Boeing 747-400 aircraft with a wingspan of considerable wingspan, and weight is only the equivalent of an ordinary family the weight of vehicles.
The wing surface in the block with more than 12,000 solar panels for the aircraft’s four engines to provide renewable sources of energy, the maximum power of each engine is 10 horsepower. During the day, lithium-polymer battery will collect energy, the energy released during the night-driven aircraft.
Pickard said: “yesterday’s dream become a reality, the aircraft will be the publicity of the Inflatable Bouncers Messenger of renewable energy.” He added: “If the aircraft alone solar-driven, no oil will be able to fly day and night, then no one dare say such a thing on the car, heater, air-conditioning system and the computer is impossible. ”
Picard in a hot air balloon ride in 1999, a record of non-stop flight in history. He expressed the hope that this can be solar-powered aircraft flight test prototype, and then over the next year in Switzerland to carry out the whole night flying. Plans to build a full solar energy will be slightly larger number of aircraft that allows pilots Picard and at the same time by the Deputy, hot-air balloon ride along the time line to do the flight. According to the plan, an official from the solar-powered aircraft began in 2012 to carry out trans-Atlantic flight and the United States.
