Diamond Aircraft Hands Over MC-21 Wing To AeroComposite

GA Company Completed The Wing Concept For The Russian Airliner In Just Two Years

Diamond Aircraft handed over a prototype wing assembly for the new Russian MC-21 airliner to state-owned AeroComposite on December 15th.

MC-21 Wing Assembly

The company best known for its GA and LSA products has spent some two years developing the airliner wing. It is based on the new Carbon-infusion technology that allows building big components, like tail units or wings, with high stability at low weight. The final assembly of the wing took place at Premium AEROTEC in Lechfeld, Germany.
 
“This prototype wing is a fantastic achievement which shows that this material, used for smaller aircraft since five decades, will have a major impact on the design of future airliners”, says Christian Dries, Owner of Diamond Aircraft. “With only 0.3% porosity Diamond Aircraft developed the infusion process to its best.” (Image provided by Diamond)
