Ilyushin IL-114 Specs, Cabin, Cockpit, and Price

Ilyushin IL-114 Specs, Cabin, Cockpit, and Price – Ilyushin IL-114 is a middle-class passenger jet designed and manufactured by the Russian Ilyushin Aviation Complex (IAC). It was built to replace the old fleet of IL-14 and An-24 aircraft deployed in Russia. 14 Ilyushin IL-114 currently operates worldwide. Ilyushin IL-114 turboprop aircraft was designed for local routes. Ilyushin IL-114 made its inaugural flight from the Gromov Flight Research Institute airport on March 29, 1990. The aircraft was flown by a crew under the pilot-test command V. Belousov.

The development of Ilyushin IL-114 began in the 1980s. Production began in 1992. Four prototypes were built with the aim of achieving certification in 1993. However, the test program was delayed when one of the prototypes that underwent a flight path crashed in July 1993 due to a technical error in the engine or propeller. The cargo version, Ilyushin IL-114T, also suffered an accident in 1999 during flight testing. The aircraft received Russian certification in April 1997.

Ilyushin IL-114 Specs and Design

Ilyushin IL-114 is based on a free monoplane lift design. This aircraft is made of a sophisticated composite metal mixture, including titanium, to reduce its overall weight. It was designed to take off and land from an unpaved airfield or a short runway even in poor climatic conditions.

Ilyushin IL-114 is equipped with modern technology to maintain the aerodynamics and efficiency of the required weight of the aircraft and power units, thus providing high fuel efficiency.

Ilyushin IL-114 is equipped with a conventional tricycle type landing gear. Retractable wheels are combined with a telescopic shock absorption system that provides stability to the aircraft when landing on synthetic or non-paved runways.

The landing gear wheel allows it to land on aerodromes that are not ready with concrete or ground runways that contribute to the expansion of Ilyushin IL-114 use in various regions. In addition, this aircraft is designed for independent operations at airports that are not equipped. Ilyushin IL-114 has an integrated air passenger. Access to all structural elements and units, inspections required by the maintenance program, fast and easy.

Ilyushin IL-114 can fly at a maximum speed of 500 km / hr. The normal range and ferries are 1,000 km and 4,800 km respectively. The service ceiling is 7,600 m. The take-off and landing rates are 1,500 m and 1,300 m respectively.

Ilyushin IL-114 Engine

Ilyushin IL-114 is powered by two TV7-117S turboprop engines, each worth 1,900kW. The engine is driven by a six-bladed SV-34 propeller provided by Aerosila. Produced by Klimov Corporation, the TV7-117S consumes 500kg to 550kg of fuel per hour. The TV7-117S engine maximizes fuel efficiency and reduces noise and gas emissions. The length and diameter of the machines are 2.1 m and 0.94 m, respectively. The dry weight is 530kg.

Ilyushin IL-114 Cabin 

Ilyushin IL-114 cabin with a length of 18.9 m and a width of 2.64 m accommodates 64 passengers in a two-seat configuration. The cabin height is 1.92 m. The ergonomically designed cabin is equipped with a luggage compartment, air conditioning system and a digital engine control system. The overhead panel is also included to provide blurry light which creates a comfortable atmosphere for passengers on the plane. The passenger cabin of the aircraft ensures comfortable flight within the overall height range.

Ilyushin IL-114 Cockpit and Avionics 

Ilyushin IL-114 crew consisted of a pilot-in-command and co-pilot. For successful flight crew performance, all flight data display devices and warning systems, as well as aircraft system controls, are combined in a single information and control system by sending data to a digital display, which is located in the pilot panel instrument.

Ilyushin IL-114 has an all-digital glass cockpit that can accommodate two crew members. The flight deck is equipped with five color displays including head to top (HUD), main flight display (PFD), multifunction display (MFD), navigation display, and warning display.

The screen allows pilots to analyze and prevent failures caused by engines, power supply systems, air conditioners, antifreeze systems, cabin air pressure, position of landing gear, doors and other systems.

The flight navigation package of this aircraft allows the operation of Ilyushin IL-114 in the day and night, in visual weather conditions and instruments, in storms, and ensures takeoff and landing in the ICAO II standard weather conditions.

The system is configured in such a way that the failure of one system does not affect the performance of the other. The system requires a level of redundancy and uses proven material.

Ilyushin IL-114 Price and Orders 

One unit of Ilyushin IL-114 had an estimated price of US $ 11 Million in 2008. Vyborg Airlines purchased two IL-114 aircraft from IAC in the MAKS Airshow held in 2005. Venezuela signed an agreement with IAC during the 2007 MAKS Airshow to hold 98 IL-114 , but the agreement was canceled. Uzbekistan Airways acquired five Ilyushin IL-114 in July 2010.
