New Beijing airport carries out first flight inspection

Xiong Jie, director of the CAAC's Flight Inspection Center－responsible for Daxing's flight inspections－said that there were very few airports in the world like Beijing Daxing as it will have four high-quality runways that can be used at the same time.

Wei Gang, captain of the plane which landed at Daxing airport on Tuesday, said: "Our crew members made a lot of preparations for this test over a month ago, including inspection procedures, data analysis and field surveys, so we could successfully complete the flight inspection."

Also, the flight inspection utilized a self-developed flight calibration system console with independent intellectual property rights, making China the sixth country to have independently developed such a system, according to the administration.
