Eating takeaways delivered by drones, taking a small plane to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the Yellow River, and soaring in the Linlu Mountains, these scenes are "flying" into reality. It is reported that our province will support Zhengzhou, Anyang and other places to take the lead in carrying out drone logistics pilots, build well-known aviation sports centers and talent training bases, and develop "low-altitude + tourism" industries such as low-altitude tourism along the Yellow River and aviation water sports according to local conditions.

Recently, the General Office of the Provincial Government issued the "Implementation Plan for Promoting the High-Quality Development of the Low-Altitude Economy in the Province (2024-2027)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan"). In 2025, the scale of the low-altitude economy will be 30 billion yuan; in 2027, the scale of the low-altitude economy will be 50 billion yuan. In this blue sky track of low-altitude economy, Henan will build a nationally influential low-altitude economic development highland.

Goal: The scale of low-altitude economy will reach 50 billion yuan in 2027

At this year's National People's Congress, the low-altitude economy was written into the government work report for the first time as a new growth engine.

The low-altitude economy has significant advantages such as a long industrial chain, wide radiation and driving area, good growth potential and large market space.

Tang Wenjun, secretary-general of the Henan Aviation Industry Association, said that as an important national transportation hub and logistics center, Henan has unique geographical advantages for developing a low-altitude economy.


Henan’s first low-altitude drone logistics delivery route successfully completed its maiden flight.

There is a lot to be done in the trillion-dollar track. The Plan proposes that by 2025, the layout of low-altitude infrastructure will be completed, a preliminary low-altitude airspace management mechanism will be established, and about 10 general airports and a number of helicopter and drone landing sites and take-off and landing points will be built. The low-altitude economy will reach 30 billion yuan, the number of enterprises above designated size will reach about 50, and the number of provincial-level and above scientific and technological innovation and public service platforms will strive to exceed 20. The flight time of general-purpose aircraft in the province will strive to reach 80,000 hours, and the flight time of drones will strive to reach 1 million hours; the industrial ecology will be gradually improved, and 20 low-altitude benchmark application scenarios will be created.

By 2027, about 20 general airports and transport airports with general aviation service functions will be built, the scale of the low-altitude economy will reach 50 billion yuan, there will be about 60 enterprises above a certain scale, and there will be more than 25 scientific and technological innovation and public service platforms at or above the provincial level. The flight time of general aircraft will strive to reach 100,000 hours, and the flight time of drones will strive to reach 2 million hours.

Field丨Zhengzhou, Anyang and other places took the lead in carrying out drone logistics pilot projects

Scenes of drones running errands and delivering food are entering the lives of more and more people.

In early 2021, Meituan drone completed its first order delivery mission for real users in Shenzhen.

On May 18 this year, a small logistics drone carrying a cargo box of 40*30*20cm flew into the blue sky. This also marked the successful operation of the new low-altitude logistics model jointly created by UU Running Errands and Henan Hangtou General Aviation Investment Co., Ltd., and it means that the first batch of low-altitude drone logistics delivery routes in Henan have officially set sail.

Three-dimensional space has unlimited prospects. Zhengzhou and Anyang will be the first to "take the lead".

Low-altitude logistics has obvious advantages in short-distance transportation, cross-regional flights, urban distribution and other scenarios. The Plan proposes to encourage the development of urban low-altitude logistics. It will accelerate the application of drones in logistics and distribution services such as express delivery and instant delivery, support Zhengzhou, Anyang and other places to take the lead in drone logistics pilot projects, support general aviation companies and drone companies to cooperate with logistics and distribution service companies, and open low-altitude logistics distribution routes.

Consumption丨Zhengzhou and Anyang create well-known aviation sports consumption centers

At the Linlu Mountain International Paragliding Base in Linzhou, tourists wearing paragliding equipment experience the thrill of riding the wind like Lie Zi; at the Anyang Eastern General Aviation Industrial Park, general aviation small planes allow many tourists to satisfy their "flying addiction."

Relevant responsible persons from the Provincial Development and Reform Commission said that our province should give full play to its advantages, cultivate its characteristics, and encourage the development of "low-altitude +" consumption. It should promote the integration of low-altitude flight with tourism, sports, photography, entertainment, performances and other consumer activities, and cultivate new products, new services and new formats for low-altitude consumption.


At Anyang General Aviation Industrial Park, visitors can have an immersive experience flying general aviation aircraft.

In terms of "low-altitude +" sports consumption, our province should speed up the construction of aviation flight camps, aviation sports clubs and flight training bases, actively organize various aviation sports events and activities, accelerate the development of aviation sports such as parachuting, model airplanes, drones, paragliding, powered parachutes, hot air balloons, simulated flight sports, etc., guide and cultivate mass aviation sports consumption. Support Zhengzhou and Anyang to build well-known aviation sports consumption centers and talent training bases.

In terms of "low-altitude +" cultural and tourism consumption, we must rely on the Taihang Mountains' water ecological resources, the Danjiang Reservoir's water ecological resources, the Heluo historical and cultural resources, the Songshan Mountains' natural and cultural resources, the Huaihe River's cultural resources, and cultural business cards such as "Hometown Henan", the Yellow River culture, and the Dabie Mountains culture to create a "one heart, one belt, and four districts" low-altitude tourism layout, and develop "low-altitude + tourism" industries such as low-altitude tourism along the Yellow River, aviation and water sports according to local conditions.

Support the construction of low-altitude cultural parks, low-altitude flight camps, and the development of aviation-themed research and study. Develop flight experience points such as electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL), hot air balloons, and powered parachutes in resorts, scenic spots, and aviation flight camps, and open interval low-altitude flight experience routes. Support places with conditions to develop all-region, all-season low-altitude tourism.

Industry丨Promote the relocation of China Feilong’s headquarters to Zhengzhou

Anyang is a city that can "fly". Taking the Aviation Sports Culture and Tourism Festival as an opportunity, Anyang has made comprehensive layout and key breakthroughs, and has initially formed a general aviation industry chain that integrates equipment manufacturing, scientific and technological research and development, education and training, exhibitions and events, general aviation operations and aviation tourism.

In recent years, relying on the improvement of the general aviation industry chain in Zhengzhou, Anyang and other cities, the development of the low-altitude economy in our province has a certain foundation. Tong Xinshun, former vice president and professor of the School of Economics and Management of Zhengzhou University of Light Industry, analyzed that the low-altitude economic industry chain in our province is gradually improving, but it is still necessary to strengthen infrastructure construction and build a hardware foundation for the development of the low-altitude economy, thereby promoting more commercial development.

Where should Henan's low-altitude industry fly to? The Plan points out that the role of the Zhengzhou and Anyang National General Aviation Industry Comprehensive Demonstration Zones and the Anyang Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Experimental Zone as low-altitude economic development platforms should be fully utilized. Focusing on the low-altitude economic industrial chain map, focusing on the manufacturing of complete machines and the production of key parts, strengthening scientific and technological innovation, continuously extending, supplementing and strengthening the chain, and striving to improve the R&D and manufacturing level of the low-altitude industry.

Cultivate leaders and fly high. The plan proposes to promote the relocation of China Feilong's headquarters to Zhengzhou for operation. At the same time, accelerate the construction of the Blue Sky Laboratory, speed up the transformation of scientific research results, and strive to create a national key laboratory.

Talent丨Establishment of Zhengzhou University of Aeronautics and Astronautics

Looking to the blue sky for development and looking to universities for talents, Zhengzhou University of Aeronautics and Astronautics is about to emerge.

The plan proposes to improve the methods of attracting and cultivating professional talents in low-altitude economy, increase the intensity of talent training, build a platform for exchanges and cooperation in low-altitude economy, strengthen exchanges and cooperation at home and abroad, and provide intellectual support for the development of low-altitude economy.

Aviation enterprises and aviation-focused colleges and universities in the province are encouraged to accelerate the introduction of innovative talents in short supply in the low-altitude economy field as well as applied professional and technical talents holding professional certificates.

Accelerate the establishment of Zhengzhou University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, accelerate the construction of the new campus of Zhengzhou University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, rely on the advantageous resources of existing aviation majors in colleges and universities, promote the integration of industry and education, science and education, strengthen the construction of disciplines and majors related to low-altitude economy, build a general aviation skills training base, and cultivate practical and scarce low-altitude economic professionals.
