中國ARJ21客機順利完成大側風試飛

China's first homegrown regional jetliner, the ARJ21-700, has completed a crosswind flight test.

我國自主研製的支線客機ARJ21-700日前完成了大側風試飛。

An ARJ21-700 aircraft landed at around 3 pm last Sunday at Yanliang airport in Xi'an, Shaanxi, after a 41-day trip to Iceland.

上週日下午3時許，一架ARJ21-700在遠赴冰島41天后，平穩降落在陝西西安的閻良機場。

Test pilots performed six pairs of takeoffs and landings with crosswind speeds of over 55 kilometers per hour at the Keflavik Airport in Iceland, where two intersecting runways generate a suitable crosswind test environment.

在側風風速超過55公里每小時的條件下，試飛員駕駛着ARJ21-700飛機104架機在冰島凱夫拉維克國際機場執行了6個起飛和6個着陸。該機場的兩條交叉走向的跑道提供了適合側風試驗的環境。

It is important for an aircraft type to counter winds from the side, as strong crosswinds may affect its takeoffs and landings.

對於飛機來說，抗側風能力是很重要的，因爲強側風可能會影響它的起飛和降落。

The ARJ21-700 is a jet with 78 to 90 seats and a range of up to 3,700 km. It acquired its aircraft type certificate in December 2014, and completed its maiden flight in June 2016.

ARJ21-700飛機座級78-90座，最大航程3700公里，於2014年12月取得型號合格證，2016年6月首航。
