Fifty kilometers from downtown Xi'an, there is a small town, Yanliang, where China's large aircraft C919 will make its maiden flight.
China has dreamed of having its own home brand, large aircraft for a long time. During China's pursuit of this dream, Yanliang has developed into an aviation industry base where a lot of companies, especially private companies, gather along the whole industry chain.
The China Aviation Industry Base aims to be a supportive base of AVIC,a supply base of COMAC, a service base of various aviation companies and a demonstration base of general aviation. It is expected to have an output value of 150 billion yuan by 2020.
