On November 23, the highly anticipated First Asian General Aviation Exhibition grandly opened at the Zhuhai International Airshow Center, attracting companies from nearly 20 countries and regions, including the United States and Germany. The exhibition comprehensively showcased the latest technologies and achievements in the general aviation field. Starair Aircraft Co., Ltd. presented an impressive air-ground lineup with its manned aircraft, unmanned aircraft, and the Starair Airshow Team, becoming a highlight of the airshow.
At this airshow, four flight demonstration teams from home and abroad performed dynamic flight demonstrations. Notably, the Starair Airshow Team, China's first "all-domestic" flight demonstration team, performed a spectacular four-aircraft formation flight under the blue sky of the Zhuhai International Airshow Center, bringing an exciting "aerial ballet" to the audience. To ensure successful and thrilling performances at this airshow, the Starair Airshow Team conducted formation flight training one and a half months in advance. In addition to performing formation takeoffs and landings, steep turns, dive climbs, and multi-aircraft bloom maneuvers, the team meticulously "customized" and arranged new performance maneuvers, such as four-aircraft upward bloom and four-aircraft horizontal formation layered bloom, winning applause and praise from the audience.
Starair Airshow Team and Flight Highlights
In the outdoor exhibition area, 24 "Aurora" light sport aircraft, including the SA60L, SA70L models, and 13 personalized custom-painted aircraft, were neatly lined up, making them the most exhibited aircraft at this airshow and setting a record for the largest participating "Aurora" fleet. The exhibited Starair SA30U is a multi-purpose large unmanned aircraft system independently developed by the company, with significant potential in aerial inspection, forest patrol, and communication relay applications. Notably, before the airshow, 18 "Aurora" aircraft from customers, including Starair General Aviation, Jiangsu Yahua, Guangzhou Rigor, Guangzhou Zhenjue Yipin, Hainan Ruichi, Guangdong Baoheng, Guangdong Tianmei, Guangdong Xiangfei, Zhuhai Yunsheng, and Suzhou Xingzhou, were transferred to the Zhuhai International Airshow Center from across the country. This transfer set a record for the most "Aurora" aircraft transferred to the same destination.
As China's low-altitude airspace reform pilot expands, more provinces are accelerating their exploration of low-altitude opening, with the results gradually emerging. The Asian General Aviation Exhibition is another high-level international general aviation exhibition brand created after the China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition (China Airshow). Starair Aircraft, as one of the creators of the national general aviation brand, has developed over more than a decade into a general aviation manufacturing enterprise focused on three main business segments: manned light aircraft, medium and large unmanned aircraft, and aviation support services. The "Aurora" aircraft, which has been a staple in the domestic general aviation market for many years, has become the preferred model for domestic general aviation operators and aviation enthusiasts, leading the market share among aircraft of the same class.

Air and Ground Collaboration, Elevating the Airshow Atmosphere
The Civil Aviation Administration of China released the "14th Five-Year Plan for General Aviation Development," emphasizing the expansion of emerging consumption, promoting low-altitude tourism development, supporting aviation sports innovation, and encouraging personal entertainment flying. This suggests that public flying is about to usher in new development opportunities, providing direction and policy support for the rapid development of private general aviation enterprises.
On November 23, at the "Deqing General Aviation Industry Development Promotion Conference" held in Zhuhai, Starair Aircraft signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement with the Mogan Mountain High-tech Industrial Development Zone Linyi-Hangzhou Industrial New Area. Both parties will leverage the Deqing General Aviation Industrial Park platform to fully utilize their respective advantages and collaborate deeply in aircraft R&D, production, and sales projects to promote the development of the local general aviation economy. We hope this cooperation will be the starting point for Starair Aircraft to expand into the East China market and contribute to the healthy and orderly development of the local general aviation market. We also look forward to exchanges and cooperation with relevant research institutions and enterprises in the industry, making general aviation take off and thrive!
Collaborating to Promote Local General Aviation Economic Development
The aerospace industry is a national strategic emerging industry and a strategic high ground for competition in high-end equipment manufacturing. With "super-strong strategic focus, rational development paths, a lean and efficient team, and an independent R&D system," Starair Aircraft has gradually grown into a "pioneer of new independent aviation manufacturing models" and a "leader of Chinese general aviation aircraft." In the future, Starair Aircraft will adhere to leading innovation, continuously developing cost-effective, highly innovative, and reliable aviation equipment, contributing to the development of China's aviation industry.
