"And all of this is based on the" all-out efforts to build high-quality projects, model projects, safety projects, and integrity projects "based on General Secretary Xi Jinping's inspection of the construction of the new airport.

"At the beginning of construction, the Daxing Airport plan only required that the runway can be operated at a range of 300 meters." Peng Peng recalled that later, the Civil Aviation Administration required one step in place to directly implement the three types of B standards for instrument landing and achieve the HUD 75 meters standard, that is, the runway. You can take off or land with a range of at least 75 meters.
