Airshow China 2010 appears in Zhuhai - People's Daily OnlineOctober 09, 2010

China North Industries Group Corporation will appear at the China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, also known as Airshow China 2010, which will be held next month.

The China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition is the only international aerospace trade show in China that is endorsed by the central Chinese government. It features the display of real-size products, trade talks, technological exchanges and a flying display. Since 1996, the show has been successfully held in Zhuhai in every even-numbered year for seven sessions.

A new breakthrough has been seen in domestic participation, with China North Industries Group Corporation set to make its debut at Airshow China 2010 by setting up the China Weaponry Hall to showcase homemade aviation equipment, airborne and air defense products, civil aviation and information technology.

Founded in 1999, China North Industries Group Corporation is the major research and production base of weapons and military supplies for the Chinese army. It also produces various kinds of arms, ammunition and equipment for the Chinese navy, air force, second artillery force and police.

Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, Ltd. (COMAC), the developer of China's large aircraft, has ordered a stand to present its image at Airshow China for the first time.

In addition, both new and regular domestic exhibitors have shown greater interest in participating. Statistics of confirmed orders show that most of the regular exhibitors have increased the exhibiting space.

Various models of homemade aircraft that represent independent intellectual property rights and state-of-the-art technology will make their debut at Airshow China 2010 and perform demonstrations. The show will feature the ARJ-21, which is a homemade regional jet made by COMAC and the Seagull 300, which is a new-style amphibious plane assembled in Zhuhai city.

The PLA Air Force, a new sponsor of Airshow China, is set to participate in Airshow China 2010 with a bigger size, bringing with them a majority of the aircraft displayed at the 60th National Day Parade, including the August 1st Aerobatic Team's new equipment with J10 Fighters and a series of state-of-the-art equipment.

The helicopter AC-313 which made its first successful flight on March 18, 2010, the JF-17, a fighter jointly developed by China and Pakistan, the KJ-200 early warning aircraft and the MA 600 regional jet will all make an appearance.

In addition, Airshow China 2010 will continue to expand the Buyer Program, which enables the show's sponsors and supporters to invite more high-caliber trade visitors, thus improving the trade atmosphere of the show.

The exhibition center occupies an area of 1.3 million square meters, with car parks and one chalet car park, covering nearly 500,000 square meters and can provide 60,000 parking spaces. The static aircraft display area is more than 400,000 square meters. The area of afforestation reaches 300,000 square meters. The three exhibition halls have a total area of 43,120 square meters, providing 1,800 package stands.

The Eighth China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition will be held in Zhuhai city of Guangdong Province from Nov. 16 until Nov. 21.
