Starair’s "Aurora" Planes Steal the Show at Jiangsu Super League – A Sky-High Tribute Goes Viral

On June 14, during a Yangzhou home game in the Jiangsu Super League, something unexpected lit up the crowd—five sleek "Aurora" planes from Jiangsu Yahua Aerobatic Team soared over the stadium mid-training. The perfect timing turned a routine flight into an electrifying aerial cheer, sparking the viral hashtag "The planes you wanted are here!" Even state media like People’s Daily and CCTV News joined the buzz.

This wasn’t just a flyby—it was a love letter to hometown pride. The man behind the moment? Shen Gang, a local entrepreneur, aviation buff, and die-hard football fan whose company owns China’s largest fleet of "Aurora" planes. What started as a training run became a sky-high pep rally for Yangzhou’s team.

The star of the show—Starair’s Aurora, China’s first homegrown two-seater sport plane—is a true standout. With 360+ units sold and 170,000+ flight hours, it’s earned its rep as a "national icon of the skies."

For 20+ years, Starair has pushed boundaries in aviation, blending cutting-edge innovation with real-world practicality. From filling industry gaps to making flying more accessible, they’re rewriting the rules—one flight at a time.

As the Auroras carved the sky, they left more than contrails—they painted a picture of how aviation and everyday passion can collide. With a mission to "bring flight within reach," Starair isn’t just building planes; it’s fueling dreams.
