New Beijing airport carries out first flight inspection

The inspections, which all airports must undergo before opening, are designed to ensure the airport's flight procedures and aviation navigational aids will be ready for operation, according to the news release.

Tuesday's test helps provide information relevant to the airport's communication, navigation and monitoring systems, according to the administration.

Daxing airport is scheduled to be completed by June 30 and enter commercial operations before Sept 30.

Flight inspections are a prerequisite for all new airports before-entering service.
