China is turbocharging its low-altitude economy with a futuristic twist! Aviation authorities just announced pilot projects for electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in six cities, marking 2024 as the \"Year of Low-Altitude Economy\". Think flying taxis, drone deliveries, and air ambulances—straight out of a sci-fi movie, but grounded in reality.
The move, highlighted in China’s government work report, signals a major push to unlock the skies for tech-driven growth. Industry experts at Airshow China told CGTN’s Zhao Chenchen that general aviation—think small planes and helicopters—will play a starring role in this sky-high vision.
Why now? Cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou are already buzzing with drone logistics, and the new eVTOL projects could slash commute times while boosting green transport. Plus, the sector is projected to inject billions into the economy, creating jobs and attracting global investors.
As one expert put it: \"This isn’t just about flying cars—it’s about reimagining how we connect communities.\" Ready for takeoff?
