Move over, drones—China’s futuristic AS700 airship just took scenic sightseeing to new heights! The 10-seat, homegrown aircraft completed its first low-altitude demo flight in Hubei Province, cruising at 500 meters with panoramic views of rivers, parks, and islands below. Perfect for travelers craving Instagram-worthy aerial shots!
Developed by AVIC, the AS700 can zip through the sky at 60 km/h for up to 10 hours, covering 700 km on a single trip. It’s designed for vertical takeoff in tight spaces, making it a game-changer for tourism in crowded areas. Imagine floating over the Great Wall or Li River someday!
After snagging its flight certification last December, the first airship is set for delivery by year-end. Buyers are already lining up—20 units are in demand, proving that low-altitude travel isn’t just for helicopters anymore.
‘This opens doors for eco-friendly, accessible tourism,’ says project manager Du Wei. With its quiet electric propulsion (details still under wraps ), the AS700 could redefine how we explore cities and nature. Ready to book your sky-high adventure?
