China Opportunities

In the 12th Five Year Plan (2011-2015) for Aviation Development, China has stipulated that it will improve aviation networks by further developing core international hub airports and trunk route airports as well as secondary regional airports. The Chinese Government will actively promote general aviation development, reform air space management systems and improve the efficiency for air space resource allocation and utilisation. They plan to build 70 airports together with a number of upgrades and expansions. A large number of these projects will be located in the mid-west of China. Estimates of this airport infrastructure expansion are around £40bn. It is proposed that by the end of 2015, there will be 230 or more commercial (certificated) airports in mainland China.

A summary of these development plans are:

· Construction of the new Beijing Airport (NBIA) and another 69 new airports.
