Chinese aviation industry
The Chinese aviation industry has experienced rapid growth over the past few decades, becoming one of the largest in the world. It includes major players like Air China, China Southern Airlines, and China Eastern Airlines, which operate extensive domestic and international routes. The industry is supported by a robust manufacturing sector, with companies like Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC) producing aircraft such as the C919.
In addition to commercial airlines, the Chinese aviation industry also encompasses military aviation and general aviation. The government has invested heavily in infrastructure, including new airports and air traffic management systems, to accommodate increasing air travel demand. This growth positions China as a key player in the global aviation market.
