In the mid-1980s, CAAC began to introduce MD-82 aircraft produced by McDonnell Douglas of the United StatesChina Northern AirlinesandChina Eastern AirlinesYes, of which the former China Northern Airlines owns 27 such aircraft in the form of purchase and lease.On December 2, 1985, the first MD-82 aircraft, No. 2104, landed in Dalian, China. After that, Northern Airlines introduced 27 such aircraft successively, becoming the largest user of such aircraft in Asia at that time.19 of the 27 aircraft were built byShanghai Aviation Industry CorporationAnd the United StatesMcDonnell Douglas It was assembled in Shanghai. Therefore, the MD-82 aircraft has become the only large passenger aircraft assembled, produced and put into use in China with the longest service life. It is the "predecessor" of today's domestic large aircraft project. Because it carries the dream of "large aircraft" of a generation of Chinese people, it has a milestone significance in the development history of China's civil aviation.Shanghai Aircraft Manufacturing Industry Company began to assemble the aircraft, and produced more than 30 before and after.
After the transformation of CAAC from the era of administration to the separation of government and enterprise, the MD-82 aircraft became a backbone of domestic transportation at that time. The MD-82 aircraft, with its slender body, rear engine, super long wingspan and other characteristics, and beautiful takeoff posture and quiet and comfortable cabin environment, was hailed as a beautiful man in the air by industry insiders.However, the fate of "Air Beauty" has changed due to the development and change of the world aviation industry.With the establishment of the European Airbus Aircraft Manufacturing Group and the production of Airbus series aircraft, for various reasons, Boeing acquired McDonnell Douglas in 1997. Since then, Boeing has been producing American military aircraftF-1The famous MacDonald Douglas products have since been replaced with Boeing's logo.
With the development of China's economy and the implementation of international standards, domestic aviation enterprises have taken the market demand as the main basis for the introduction of aircraft, and various new functional, ultra luxury, intelligent, and more energy-efficient aircraft are constantly put into market operation. With the more detailed market division, the proportion of high-end passengers is increasing, and the demand for cabin luxury is also increasing.Since 2005, MD-82 aircraft have left the Chinese market in succession.
On October 27, 2008, as the first batch of modern main aircrafts of CAAC, the MD-82 aircraft, which has witnessed the great changes of CAAC's reform and development for more than 20 years, will successfully complete its historical mission. On October 27, 2008, it officially bid farewell to the Chinese market. Hainan Branch of China Southern Airlines, which is in charge of this aircraft, held a grand ceremony,Welcome the last 12 MD-82 aircraft to take a glorious curtain call.[3]
