China to boost aviation
CHINA is set to boost the development of its general aviation industry to create a market worth more than 1 trillion yuan (US$153 billion) by 2020.
The country will increase its number of airports to more than 500 from 300-plus in 2015, support the opening of low-altitude airspace, and promote research and manufacturing, according to a guideline issued by the State Council.
It also plans to increase the number of general aircraft, including helicopters and private jets, to more than 5,000 by 2020, from 1,874 last year.
The country will also encourage private investment in the sector, boost pilot training and expand the use of general aircraft in disaster relief, emergency medical services and environmental monitoring.
