0:05
The team consistently led. Creating a
0:07
workable team is much more difficult
0:10
than creating an airplane.
0:12
>> Every specialist is the product of the
0:14
work with which older comrades at one
0:16
time carried out on him.
0:18
>> Skills must be handed down like father
0:21
>> An airplane is considered an airplane
0:24
only after it has risen once in the air
0:26
and it acquires a soul much earlier.
0:29
>> We give birth to them these planes in
0:31
them. Our life is ours. I don't know how
0:34
>> I now have a feeling of confidence that
0:36
the future belongs to our aircraft.
0:47
>> It all starts with childhood. Then there
0:49
was the Kharkiv personal Institute of
0:51
distribution. I got to Tag and Rog. I
0:54
chose it myself because my team worked
0:56
there. By the way, at this time in
0:58
Moscow designed aircraft L-86.
1:02
And the whole country helped him on a
1:04
business trip. When I was young, they
1:06
sent me there with pleasure and here I
1:10
>> First of all, I believe that the
1:12
collective determines yes.
1:15
A person's desire or reluctance to work
1:18
and engage in some kind of activity.
1:21
But if the stages of creating an
1:22
aircraft there are sketches, the project
1:25
is a technical project, working design.
1:27
But before all these stages, there is a
1:29
stage. The most important thing is to
1:31
create a team that is, in principle,
1:35
Everything is obvious. There will not be
1:37
a workable team as if there would be
1:40
nothing in general but this, in fact,
1:43
Ilyushin spoke about. Well, the most
1:45
basic quote is Ilyushin. Creating a
1:48
workable team is much more difficult
1:50
than creating an airplane.
1:52
>> When is the young man coming?
1:55
>> It's not the work that captivates him.
1:57
Rather, it's the intricate human
1:58
connections between unfamiliar
2:00
individuals. When senior colleagues
2:03
invited me to speak on the topic, it
2:05
reflected such dynamics.
2:08
And this type of connection was
2:09
universal, almost like a familial bond.
2:12
>> I embarked on your suggested path and
2:15
relocated here by [music] the rest of
2:18
To my delight, I was welcomed at the age
2:20
of seven into a vibrant creative team
2:23
where I found meaningful opportunities.
2:26
This opened the door for me to
2:28
collaborate with highly skilled
2:29
designers in significant ways.
2:31
>> Indeed, every specialist represents a
2:33
culmination of knowledge and effort
2:34
shaped by the guidance of experienced
2:36
mentors who generously devoted their
2:38
>> We were young. Who were we then? We are
2:41
very fortunate to have many older
2:45
The department retained this culture,
2:47
offering the chance to observe first
2:49
hand how experts design planes like the
2:53
IL-76 and IL-96. A comprehensive
2:56
education from start to finish.
3:00
Design the plane from scratch.
3:02
>> Group excursions to the wilderness often
3:04
began with Ilyushin. And photographic
3:06
memories of these moments can be seen in
3:08
exhibits at our museum.
3:09
>> Alex consistently secured the top
3:11
position. Sergey Vladimirovich
3:13
meticulously formed this team [music]
3:15
based on these established criteria.
3:17
It has been moving and preserved for
3:20
over [music] 90 years. They are all in
3:22
Ilyushin. They are very proud of their
3:24
enterprise both on good successful days
3:27
and on critical days. Loyalty criteria
3:34
diligence, desire for development, these
3:37
are the criteria you need to have to be
3:42
>> It is worth noting probably the
3:43
responsibility of each person because
3:46
according to one of the testaments of
3:48
Sergey Vladimirovich in Ilyushin, each
3:50
person is responsible for his work to
3:53
achieve the final result and each of
3:55
[music] us makes some contribution to
3:57
the construction of such a giant bird.
3:59
>> What sets Ilyushin apart? Likely, it's a
4:02
more cost-efficient approach in design
4:04
and manufacturing, ensuring no delays in
4:07
the delivery of the machine.
4:11
A lot of attention was paid to the
4:13
launch of the aircraft.
4:14
>> Ilyushin's philosophy is that we will
4:16
say the requirements for all aircraft
4:20
there one is the reliability
4:24
Then the convenience of the operator,
4:26
then the manufacturability of the
4:29
But there are three basics that have
4:31
been preserved for more than 90 years.
4:33
So, this is reliability, strength, and
4:38
>> The main advantage of Ilyushin aircraft
4:40
is reliability [music]
4:42
and this is shown even by world practice
4:45
and 114 type 300 that now made a new
4:48
aircraft from scratch.
4:52
Incorporating the feedback of crews who
4:56
>> Ilyushin's passenger planes were the
4:58
best in the country. To this day, I
5:00
think I flew a lot in the 86 car and I
5:03
really like this plane. This is in
5:05
general my favorite plane.
5:09
I've also flown the 96 model and love
5:12
the 34 as well, but the 76 continues to
5:15
stand unmatched, something you
5:20
>> Ilyushin's aircraft from my point of
5:22
view are the most sophisticated and
5:25
There is a sense of pride when you see
5:27
yes, our planes. There is a sense of
5:29
confidence that the future is behind our
5:34
Simple, reliable, high resource, simply
5:37
good, soulful machines because they were
5:40
made by people with a soul.
5:50
>> An airplane is considered an airplane
5:53
only after it has risen one time in the
5:56
air and it acquires the soul much
5:59
earlier. After all, any person, even a
6:01
riveter and a locksmith, he still
6:04
invests his soul in the piece of work
6:09
>> We have a wonderful tradition at the
6:11
plants. This is one flight. I remember
6:13
my first flight. You feel such a sense
6:16
of continuity and the fact that those
6:18
people who are next to you now have all
6:23
>> They perceive it as their craftsmanship
6:27
What does their work become?
6:29
>> This is our pride, our aviation,
6:30
something I deeply connect with. I know
6:33
that if the plane flies by, then my part
6:35
is definitely worth it and I'm proud of
6:39
>> Well, the old one is our best ally in
6:41
work, then enterprise K, which our ideas
6:44
are transformed and give them life.
6:47
>> We give birth to them, these planes in
6:50
them. Our life is ours. I don't know how
6:53
It's called it was built in a clear
6:55
field. There are no buildings here.
6:57
There are wheat fields here. During this
6:59
time, there was a beautiful factory of
7:01
buildings and equipment. Originally
7:04
built as the most ordinary production
7:06
here, all computer computing machines
7:09
were large centers exceeding all the
7:12
capacities of the city at the time. Yes,
7:14
[singing] this is a unique data center.
7:16
You could say a steel plant in
7:18
principle. It remained as the last plant
7:23
>> This is probably a place of [music]
7:24
strength that attracts professionals and
7:27
here we have the most powerful technical
7:34
>> What significant transformations have
7:36
occurred over these 50 [music] years?
7:40
Technologies, aircraft buildings, that
7:42
is the share of manual labor began to
7:44
decline and equipment with a large share
7:47
of automation appeared.
7:52
>> One, what did you encounter? This, of
7:54
course, is correct planning. And today,
7:57
planning a part becomes on the machine
7:59
on a certain date based on its
8:01
manufacturing cycle and the date of
8:04
installation in the unit. Today, it is
8:06
an automated system. We implemented took
8:09
a pilot workshop and implemented it
8:13
An operating system for tracking
8:15
manufacturing using QR codes is already
8:18
modern tools. Any tools replicated
8:21
in the production system, they bear
8:24
fruit. They either reduce losses or give
8:27
a big breakthrough forward. And the
8:28
plant [music] has really changed in the
8:33
And this multiple increase in production
8:35
output is a young team.
8:38
>> To date, I and people have grown more
8:40
than three times in terms of the volume
8:42
of products produced.
8:46
It has grown more than three times.
8:48
>> I have been working here since 1998.
8:52
During this time, of course, the plant
8:54
has grown very globally. Productivity
8:57
increased due to new equipment.
8:59
>> With ambitious goals, the increase in
9:01
production [music] indicates that we are
9:03
going in the right direction.
9:05
>> The factory practically works out. This
9:08
is my life. I started in aviation, came
9:11
here in '92 and took work here. The
9:13
factory really gave me a house.
9:16
My family grew up [music] here. My
9:18
children are here. The youngest son is
9:20
the eldest. Well, they looked at their
9:22
father and the session with him would
9:24
call everyone, he said. They became
9:26
interested and they came to work also at
9:29
this plant. They are expected by their
9:31
sons. I know this is a continuation of
9:34
>> A father who was always a year for me,
9:37
that is the one for whom I basically
9:39
reached out and grew up.
9:41
Looking at him, I came and tried to
9:43
match my father so that he would also be
9:46
proud of me just as I was proud and
9:51
You have to work. You have to work for
9:53
the benefit of the plant, for the
9:54
benefit of the family, for the benefit
9:57
of the country and your son. I'm trying
9:59
to convey it all. Inspired by my family,
10:02
seeing how they work, how they burn with
10:04
this business, over time I realized that
10:07
I want to work and develop in this same
10:10
industry. It wasn't my father who called
10:13
me first. Secondly, this is already too
10:15
life began here. I liked one word, I
10:17
liked it and that's it. Our profession
10:19
is very unique. Skills need to be passed
10:22
on since father to son. Well, what did I
10:24
learn there in Tashkent? I pass on 50%
10:28
of my years to young future specialists
10:30
here. These are my students and I am
10:32
glad that I teach the guys.
10:37
Future specialists so that they really
10:38
do not abandon every bus.
10:40
If you even look at the photos that we
10:42
have hanging in museums, yes, there is
10:45
Mikhail Alexandrovich Plotnikov in one
10:48
of the photos. This photo from the 30s,
10:51
he was my leading designer. That is they
10:53
passed it on to me as you have already
10:55
noticed here. But what about himself or
10:58
Tushina am I one might say a grandson in
11:01
this plan. If you haven't learned
11:03
anything new during the day, then the
11:06
actual day so empty that world aviation
11:09
doesn't stand still.
11:12
Half a century of age carries
11:16
Despite that, we're advancing, growing
11:18
and will continue requiring fresh talent
11:21
and most essentially new knowledge.
11:24
Planes probably represent my deep-seated
11:26
love for technology.
11:29
Always wanted to be part of it.
11:33
A piece of something large, probably for
11:36
So, accordingly you end up in industries
11:39
like aviation because well, the scale
11:42
here is surprising and you can touch,
11:47
was it on paper a while ago?
11:49
>> You won't understand the power of Silk
11:51
until you get to Ulyanovsk and look into
