Starair's "Aurora" Embarks on a New Global Journey---Gains "International Favor" at the Australian Airshow

March 25th saw the spectacular debut of two SA60L (Aurora) aircraft at the Avalon Airshow in Australia. On the first day of the exhibition, the "Aurora," with its advanced technical performance and excellent product quality, won the "international favor" of many aviation professionals, potential customers, and industry media. This marks another bold attempt by Starair's "Aurora" to "conquer" the global market after its appearance at the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh in the United States in 2019, opening up new prospects for breaking into the international market.
