8. From a complete no-fly, to a low-altitude opening

For a long time, China's low-altitude airspace resource utilization rate is quite low, by the end of 2008, the country's general aircraft only 898, less than 1,000. The United States has about 222,000 general-purpose aircraft, and even Brazil has more than 11,000 general-purpose aircraft.

This is a considerable space, in the former Soviet Union, the German young Rust piloted a small plane, flying over Red Square, like these situations can see the need for a country to effectively control low-altitude airspace.

In the past, the control was a complete ban on flying, and no other aircraft could be used except for civil aviation aircraft or air force aircraft, which greatly limited the development of small aircraft in China. At the same time, there are restrictions on some paragliding and skydiving.

In the 50s and 60s of the 20th century, even in the 70s and 80s of the 20th century, it was useless to open up the airspace, because the economy was backward at that time, there was no technology, there was no money to buy an aircraft, there was no technology, this type of aircraft could not be developed, and today's relaxation of this policy is a kind of comprehensive maturity.

First of all, the ability to maintain security has been enhanced, and the effectiveness of medium- and high-altitude radars and low-altitude radars on our borders in taking comprehensive precautions against our country has been much improved than before, including the air defense against the Olympic Games and the World Expo.

In addition, the development of modern industries and the large demand of the aviation industry, especially the development of small and medium-sized aircraft, including private aircraft, agricultural aircraft, forest protection, pesticide spraying and other aircraft.

Just like the figures just mentioned, they are very impressive, the United States has more than 200,000 planes, and China has only more than 1,000 planes in total, which is a very big difference.

In 1997, when I visited the United States for the first time, the plane landed in Anchorage, Alaska, and I was very surprised. There are not only such small aircraft, but also low-flying vehicles such as small helicopters. For us, it's a blank slate.

The development of any economy is the flow of people, and the flow of people can produce logistics, and there is no logistics without the flow of people. The popularity of such small aircraft is a lot of space for us, a space that has been underutilized in the past.

The use of this space can bring great benefits to the development of the aviation industry and economic development.

First of all, from the point of view of people's quality, it is of great help to improve the quality of the whole people. The main source of pilots and ground crews of the Air Force is recruited from middle school and college students, and those recruited basically have little understanding of aviation knowledge.

This is different from the economically developed countries in the West, many people in Europe and the United States enter aviation schools to learn to fly, and they are already flying enthusiasts and already have skills in this area. If the quality of the whole people is so high, then the training of the Air Force, including the training of civil aviation pilots, will save a lot of resources.

During World War II, everyone despised American soldiers very much, and felt that the combat effectiveness of the American army was inferior to that of the German army and the Japanese army. However, after fighting in the European theater for a while, the Germans quickly discovered that the American soldiers had a very big advantage: a large number of German soldiers were composed of peasants, while American soldiers were composed of workers, and there were a large number of tractor drivers and car drivers among the American soldiers. Therefore, when the US military is carrying out mechanized combat missions, although its tactics are rigid, its mechanized units have very strong operational and athletic capabilities. The US military does not need professional technicians, and basically everyone can drummer and drive a car without going through professional training, and this is the great benefit that the improvement of the quality of the whole people will bring to the army, including combat effectiveness, after the popularization of this technology among the people.

When a country's aviation industry develops, the establishment of a powerful air force, a powerful aerospace force, more and more use of air and space, need more and more personnel and technical support, this support is very important.

We can find some experience in this area from history, for example, during the "World War II", Japan and the United States fought for air supremacy, and the result was a fiasco, in addition to the gap in industrial strength between the two countries, largely because the American general aviation market is much broader than Japan. Japan can only rely on a small number of well-trained pilots, while the United States has a large number of civilian pilots as a base, so it is easy for the United States to quickly expand a large air force in a short period of time.

Moreover, after the development of the aviation industry, especially the Wright brothers in the United States, they themselves said that they were the inventors of the first airplane, and Russia also said that they made the first airplane.

Putting aside this controversy, since the invention of the first airplane in the United States, the development of the aviation industry in the United States is the development of civilian aviation forces everywhere. Crossing the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and completing round-the-world voyages are all carried out by the people.

In fact, these have been very helpful to the expansion of the United States. It has been of great help to Americans to quickly grasp the world's air transportation and air routes, and to understand the world.

In today's globalized world, air transportation is the most convenient of all means of transportation. It is far better than a ship and better than a highway. The global aviation industry is probably the most trafficked and most used by people today. In this regard, it is also the most demanded talent.

Moreover, the huge bottleneck that restricts the development of the country's aviation industry is that the supply of pilots is seriously insufficient today, and there will be a great demand in this area in the future.

After the opening of this airspace, the corresponding industries have kept up, and many people can take the driver's license for small aircraft like taking the driver's license for a car, which will become the reserve force of a huge aviation force in our country, which will indeed be of great help to the development of the aviation industry.
