　　The Shanhe aircraft we performed is mainly my country’s first self-produced and self-developed aircraft. After more than ten years of improvement, the entire fuselage is made of composite materials, so the entire empty weight is very light. Then the fuel efficiency is very low. In this case, the speed of the aircraft will be higher, and the speed will be faster.

　　[Explanation] Chen Chunqi, a flight instructor of Sunward Aircraft, told reporters that Hunan, as China's only pilot province for global low-altitude management reform, has a solid foundation in the general aviation industry and is China's small and medium-sized aero engine research and development base.

At present, there are more than 40 general aviation-related companies in Hunan, with a market share of more than 90% in China.

There are more than 6000 related industry personnel led by academicians, 12 general-purpose airports have been built, and 5 low-altitude travel routes have been opened.

　　Hunan is now taking the first step in the country (in the field of general aviation). Now every city in Hunan has to repair some general aviation airports. In the future, Hunan Province may reach such a line of airports.

I can fly to another place by flying a plane, buying one, or renting one from here.

(Development) The prospects are still great.

　　[Explanation] It is reported that this Hunan General Aviation Expo will not only stage a dynamic flight show in Zhuzhou, but also set up a static exhibition of 60,000 square meters and a number of forum exchange activities in Changsha.

After visiting the Expo, the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Malta to China Zhuo Jiaying said that the development of general aviation in China is amazing, especially during the new crown epidemic, which played a huge role. He hoped that in the future, Maltese could reach cooperation with Chinese companies in related fields.

　　I think (development of general aviation) is one of China’s most successful stories. I think China has found a good position to enable itself to make progress in the aviation industry, and I also wish China have new explorations in the aviation field .

Malta is willing to cooperate with China in the general aviation industry.
