The 2023 AERO Asia show, a four-day event, took place in Zhuhai on November 23th. This aviation exhibition will showcase the latest technological products and achievements in the field of general aviation, while also providing spectators with thrilling aerial performances.

Recently, reporters visited the site in advance for a sneak peek and witnessed foreign flight performance teams undergoing adaptative flights upon arrival. John Doe, a pilot from the European team Fly-by Knights, said, "This performance involves the formation flying of aircraft, which is how we start our show. Being able to witness flights climb vertically and descend in absolute precision together is a surprise we have in store for the audience."

Apart from Fly-by Knights, this year's show also invited the Sunward Aerobatic Team from Hunan and female aerobatic pilots from the Fulai Aviation Club to deliver captivating performances lasting 70 minutes each day.

In addition to the breathtaking aerial displays, the 2023 aviation show has set up a static exhibition area covering a total area of 40,000 square meters that is divided into indoor and outdoor sections. It has attracted over 250 global exhibitors, presenting more than 90 aircraft, including business jets, helicopters, and unmanned aerial vehicles.

According to the responsible person for the 2023 AERO Asia show, it is worth paying attention to many aircraft in the static exhibition area, such as the NF Explorer, dubbed the "airborne pick-up truck", which is being showcased to the public for the first time. The show will host nearly 20 interactive events centered around the latest frontier technologies in the field of general aviation.

Starting this year, Zhuhai will host the AERO Asia show in odd-numbered years, echoing the China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition being held biennially to foster a pattern of "two aviation shows" in China.

“蓝天芭蕾”上演！亚洲通航展在珠海开幕

2023亚洲通用航空展于11月23日在珠海开幕，为期4天的航展将集中展示通用航空领域最新技术产品和成果，并为观众带来精彩的空中飞行表演。

日前，记者到现场提前“探营”，看到来自国外的飞行表演队正在进行到达后的适应性飞行训练。欧洲穿越骑士飞行表演队飞行员约翰·多德表示，“这场表演是飞机编队的结合，这就是我们开始演出的方式。能够看到它们垂直攀爬，并以绝对精确的方式一起向下和向外，我们会把结局作为一个惊喜。”

不仅有来自欧洲的“穿越骑士”飞行表演队，本届通用航展还邀请到了湖南“山河”飞行表演队和福来航空俱乐部的女特技飞行员等为大家带来每天70分钟的精彩表演。

除了精彩的飞行表演，2023亚洲通用航空展还设置了静态展区。展区分为室外、室内，总面积有4万平方米，吸引了全球250多家单位参展，展出了公务机、直升机、无人机等飞行器90余架。

据2023亚洲通用航空展负责人介绍，静态展览很多飞机都是值得关注的，包括号称“空中皮卡”的NF Explorer，它也是首次在世人面前展出。本次亚洲通航展相关的活动丰富多彩，将举办近20场围绕通用航空领域前沿技术展开的主题进行交流互动。

从今年开始，珠海将逢单年举办亚洲通用航空展，和双年举办的中国国际航空航天博览会一起构建“双航展”格局。
