Bandung, West Java (ANTARA News) - The National Space and Aviation Institute (Lapan) said it plans to develop amphibious version of the countrys new aircraft product N219 to enable it to land on small islands.

"We want this aircraft to serve short distance routes between small islands which have no airstrips. The amphibious N2019 aircraft could land on the beach," Lapan Chief Thomas Djamaluddin said here on Wednesday, when watching the aircraft landing safely after a successful flight test at the Husein Sastranegara airport of Bandung.

Thomas said he was proud that the aircraft was assembled by state-owned aircraft maker PT Dirgantara Indonesia with technicians all Indonesians.

"This is assembled by Indonesian engineers unlike N250 aircraft, which is assembled in cooperation with foreign technicians," he said.

Chief Executive of PT Dirgantara Indonesia Budi Santoso said the success in the flight test is "very" important for the company and Indonesias aviation industry as it proves the the capability of the country in designing, testing, certification up to production of aircraft.

"There is no foreign technical assistance . It is the result or a brainware after years of hard work of Indonesian engineers," Budi said.

The N219 aircraft took to the air in a maiden test flight on Wednesday at the air strip of the Husein Sastranegara airport.

The test flight was held after the aircraft was give the Certificate of Airworthiness from the Transport Ministry.

The two turboprop engine aircraft has a capacity of carrying 19 passengers.(*)

300 jam terbang itu untuk masing2 dua prototip terbang atau keseluruhan?

Untuk keseluruhan, semakin banyak armada, bisa semakin cepet diselesaikan 300 jam terbangnya, tapi nambah modal lg..

Good...good. There is no reason this aircraft can't get certification. After all, PTDI has produced and delivered many aircrafts. Even FAA and European certificate shouldn't be problem. This is a simple and rugged aircraft.

Jadi buat saya sertifikasi bukan masalah, yang masalah adalah jualannya. Mudah2an bisa tembus cepek unit meskipun belom dapet sertifikat.

Turki Tertarik Kerja Sama Garap N219

Untuk Pasar Afrika

Pesawat terbang N-219 [Republika]

Turkish Aerospace Industries, industri pesawat terbang asal turki berminat menjalin kerja sama produksi dengan PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero) (PTDI) membuat pesawat N219. Kerja sama produksi antara PTDI dengan Turkish Aerospace Industries dilakukan untuk memenuhi permintaan pasar di Afrika.

"Turkish Aerospace Industries tertarik kerja sama. Ingin join dengan kita, produksi di mereka dan dijual di Afrika umpamanya," ujar Direktur Produksi PTDI Arie Wibowo saat berbincang dengan detikFinance, Jakarta, Selasa (22/8/2017).

Kerja sama produksi ini dilakukan untuk melebarkan penjualan pesawat N219 ke luar negeri. Pasalnya, jika diproduksi di Bandung, pengiriman pesawat N219 tidak ekonomis.

"Secara logistik kalau saya bikin pesawat di Bandung dan customer di Afrika pesawatnya kan kecil, mau diterbangkan secara logistik enggak memungkinkan. Kalau pakai kapal laut butuh waktu lama, paling bagus kita assembly dekat Afrika supaya deliver langsung dari situ," tutur Arie.

Arie menambahkan, dengan demikian pasar pesawat buatan PTDI, khususnya N219 bisa semakin luas dan diminati banyak negara di dunia.

"Jadi lebih kepada regional marketing dan regional logistiknya lebih memungkinkan, daripada membuat di sini dan mengirim ke seluruh dunia," kata Arie.

Sebelumnya perusahaan Turki, FNSS, juga bekerja sama dengan PT Pindad (Persero) membuat medium tank bernama MT Kaplan. Tank ini mampu melesat hingga 70 kilometer (km) per jam dengan jarak tempuh maksimal sekali jalan 450 km. Medium tank ini juga dilengkapi dengan meriam dengan kaliber 105 mm yang diadopsi dari Cockerill Maintenance & Ingenierie SA Defense dari Belgia dan 7.62 mm Coaxial Machine Gun.

Production cost for N-219 aircraft around $3 million /unit.

Setelah Diproduksi Massal, Berapa Harga Pesawat N219?

Pesawat N219 buatan PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI) yang dikembangkan bersama LAPAN ditargetkan diproduksi massal di 2019 mendatang.

Produksi massal pesawat buatan Bandung tersebut bisa dilakukan setelah mendapatkan Type Certificate yang diperkirakan pada 2018 dari Direktorat Kelaikan Udara dan Pengoperasian Pesawat Udara (DKPPU) Kementerian Perhubungan.

Lalu berapa harga jual pesawat N219? Menurut Direktur Produksi PTDI, Arie Wibowo, harga jual pesawat N219 berada di kisaran US$ 6 juta per unit atau sekitar Rp 81 miliar.

"Kita di kisaran US$ 6 jutaan ya," ujar Arie saat berbincang dengan detikFinance, Jakarta, Selasa (22/8/2017).

Sedangkan kebutuhan modal untuk produksi pesawat dengan kapasitas 19 penumpang sebesar 50% dari harga jual, atau berada di angka US$ 3 juta per unit atau sekitar Rp 40,5 miliar.

"Modalnya minimum saya dapat sekitar 50% dari harga jual lah untuk memulai," tambah Arie.

Beberapa maskapai dalam negeri pun berminat untuk membeli pesawat N219 buatan Bandung. Pesawat perintis ini memiliki daya jelajah hingga 880 km dalam sekali jalan untuk menjangkau daerah terpencil.

"Sebetulnya approaching beberapa airline menyatakan punya intensi beli, tapi belum memastikan akan beli," ujar Arie.

Beberapa calon pembeli tersebut, kata Arie, perlu didorong oleh berbagai insentif yang perlu diberikan pemerintah, mulai dari insentif pajak hingga kewajiban penggunaan pesawat buatan dalam negeri.

"Contohnya ada namanya pengurangan pajak atau kebijakan pajak. Kedua, dia diberikan semacam perlindungan bahwa airline beli pesawat dalam negeri. Dengan itu bisa naikkan produksi dalam negeri," ujar Arie.

Selain itu, subsidi tiket juga perlu diberikan kepada penumpang pesawat N219 nantinya. Sehingga maskapai dalam negeri terpacu untuk membeli pesawat dalam negeri, khususnya buatan PTDI.

"Kemungkinan memakai subsidi-subsidi perintis kan ada. Subsidi perintis diberikan airliner N219," kata Arie.

GMF AeroAsia Opens Massive Hangar In Indonesia
GMF AeroAsia has opened a 16-line narrowbody aircraft hangar at the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Jakarta, Indonesia, and the facility also includes a dedicated paint bay.

GMF AeroAsia has opened a 16-line narrowbody aircraft hangar at the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Jakarta, Indonesia, and the facility also includes a dedicated paint bay.

According to President and CEO Richard Budihadianto, the hangar is operating at 80% capacity, or 12 lines, its target for Garuda and third-party airline customers as it ramps up. Speaking at Aviation Week’s MRO Asia-Pacific Conference this week, he said he expects to operate it at full capacity in 2017.

Hangar four, at 6,500 square meters, is one of the biggest hangars in the world.

Budihadianto expects the MRO’s maintenance business to “double revenue in the next five years.” In 2014, GMF generated $264 million in MRO revenue, a 14.7% increase over 2013. That came from three hangars that can accommodate five lines of widebody work, plus a hangar for minor maintenance.

Garuda Indonesia Inaugurates GMF 'Hangar 4', World's Biggest Narrow Body Hangar

Garuda President & CEO M. Arif Wibowo stated that the increased capacity of GMF, with Hangar 4, is an example of concrete support from GMF AeroAsia, as a subsidiary, for Garuda Indonesia's sustainable business expansion program. "By the year 2020, the Garuda Indonesia Group will eventually operate a total of 241 aircraft. Also, Hangar 4 is a strategic initiative of GMF AeroAsia in seizing a large portion of the narrow-body aircraft maintenance market in Asia Pacific, which is forecast to become market leader in the MRO business, and furthermore, becoming a market leader for the largest aircraft maintenance business over the next five years," Arif added.

In the midst of rapid growth and expansion in Indonesia's aviation industry, the presence of Hangar 4 marks a new business opportunity and prospective investment to reinforce the national MRO industry. Supported by thousands of highly skilled workers, Hangar 4 is expected to optimally support both local and international airlines to comply with the global aviation safety standard as well as the accesibility of spare parts requirements.

The President & CEO of GMF AeroAsia, Richard Budihadianto, explained that the concept of Hangar 4 is "The Butterfly", consisting of two wings, with an office area and workshop in middle of the Hangar. "This concept comes from the willingness to have a Hangar with an international standard and a futuristic design. From the operational aspect, Hangar 4 GMF AeroAsia is highly effective because aircraft movement will be more flexible," he added.

"The unique design of Hangar 4 is evidenced by the implementation of an eco friendly concept. This ecofriendly building concept is GMF's responsibility to the earth. This concept is contained in the special construction of the Hangar, such as skylights on the roof and Panasap Glass on the walls of the Hangar to help optimize natural sunlight, the second floor's (office), has a curtain wall with laminated glass to maximize light circulation for a modern and transparent look, aluminum ceilings minimize air turbulence, while the roof has been designed to allow water to drain easily and therefore reduce the impact on the facade. Hangar 4 uses Metal Halide lamps to create white light and low electricity consumption," said Richard.

The whole construction of GMF's Hangar 4 was completed by Indonesians and this Hangar was built on a 66.940 m2 area with 64.000m2 available for production area and 17.600 m2 allocated for office space. Hangar 4 has the capability to maintain 16 narrow body aircraft at one time and one bay is also dedicated for aircraft painting. GMF's Hangar 4 can accommodate 16 narrow body aircraft in a parallel formation, with heavy and light maintenance, winglet modification, structure repairs, interior modifications, painting and other maintenance available.

GMF's Hangar 4 utilization will be completed in phases and is therefore expected to reach its full capacity (16 slots operationalized) in 2018. By 2016, GMF has predicted it will hace completed 209 maintenance projects, which will then increase by the next year to 250 maintenance projects, with 313 maintenance projects expected by 2018.
