Sky's the limit for booming general aviation sector (5)

By Wang Wen (China Daily)

"The general aviation industry has great potential as it is the only industry which was not opened up after China embarked on reforms and opening-up in 1978," he added.

Wu Tongshui, president of Civil Aviation University of China, said: "The current policy barriers and bottlenecks need to be overcome.

"If they are, the general aviation industry will experience high-speed growth in the next 10 years and it may become a key economic growth engine."

Another key issue is the tax being charged on general aviation operators.

"The tax rate on small and mid-sized helicopters, for instance, is too high," said Rong Weiguo, deputy general manager of the Zhuhai Helicopter Branch of China Southern Airlines Company Ltd.
