U-Jet: The Regulations states that except for nine scenarios, general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures, but it follows that flight plans have to be submitted for approval. Isn’t it self-contradictory?
Jin Junhao: It is not self-contradictory. The 2003 Regulations for General Aviation Flight Control states that general aviation in China has to go through two levels of approval: the “flight mission” approval, which is about the nature of the flight, under the jurisdiction of the flight control department of the Air Force, and “flight plan” approval, which is about flight schedule, route, altitude, origin and destination airport, under the jurisdiction of CAAC. If you understand this difference, you will find it easier to understand the statements in the Regulation. From now on, except for the nine scenarios, general aviation activities will no longer need to go through “flight mission” approval, but “flight plan” approval is still required. The two statements are not contradictory to each other.
U-Jet: So you are saying the Regulation has no direct relation with the opening-up of low altitude airspace.
Jin Junhao: You can say that. The Regulation is issued mainly to simplify general aviation approval procedures. It has no direct link with low altitude airspace. Due to the misunderstanding of the two concepts, “flight mission” and “flight plan”, the statement “except for the below nine scenarios, general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures” is misinterpreted as airspace opening-up. But the ultimate goal is the same—to make it freer and more convenient for general aviation, only that the Regulation works on simplifying procedures, while low altitude opening-up aims to expand free flying airspace.
U-Jet: With the Regulation, how much faster would it be for general aviation approval?
Jin Junhao: It depends. General aviation activities not included in the 9 scenarios will surely get approval faster. But how much faster will depend on each individual case. The Regulation fully exemplified the principle of “no prohibition means permission”, where all activities other than the nine listed are exempted from approval. It is a huge progress. As the approval criteria for “flight plan” gets more specified, general aviation will get fairer and freer treatment.
U-Jet: What is the nature of the Regulation in a legal sense?
Jin Junhao: The Regulation is a document jointly issued by PLA General Staff Department and CAAC. Strictly speaking, it is not an administrative regulation, but a document with legal force issued by CAAC. It will become an administrative regulation and gain more legal force in the future. Article 5 of the November 18, 2013 Regulations on the Approval and Management of General Aviation Missions (hereafter referred to as “the Regulation”) stipulates that “Except for the below nine scenarios, general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures, but before flight operation, flight plans with detailed description of the nature of missions should be submitted for approval according to national flight control regulations. “ It follows with nine scenarios involving national defense and diplomatic matters, which are very rare in general aviation.
While the statement “Except for the below nine scenarios, general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures” gives hope that general aviation will be fully opened up, the following sentences raise doubt as to whether general aviation need to undergo application or approval at all.
To clear the above misunderstandings, U-Jet invites Mr. Jin Junhao, Director of General Aviation Division, CAAC to offer authoritative interpretations.

At 1400, November 28th, 2013, Reignwood Asia Aviation 400-6105-999 received an emergent mission from International SOS. An Italian patient with multiple thromboembolism need to be transported to Hong Kong for immediate treatment.
As the Regulation states that except for nine scenarios involving borderline or national security, all other general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures, Reignwood was able to save a lot of time. By 1800, they had already obtained approval from CAAC while its medical team transported a 200kg ICU to its operating base in Tianjin.
At 0300, November 29th, 2013, the emergency relief flight arrived at Hong Kong after a 4-hour flight. Sun Yongan, President of Reignwood Asia Aviation calls for bigger support, “As a social undertaking business, government support played a critical role in our successful mission. If on the basis of the current fast track, the government could provide priority approval and dispatch, it will be a huge step forward for China’s medical emergency flight services.”
2013年11月28日上午14时许,华彬亚盛接到国际救援中心的紧急转运任务,一名因下肢多发血栓栓塞的意大利男子急需转运至香港接受进一步治疗。
由于《通用航空飞行任务审批与管理规定》出台后,规定只有9种涉及国境线、国家安全的情形需要进行“飞行任务”的审批,此外的普通通用航空飞行任务都无需“飞行任务”审批。所以此次空中救护队申请大连到香港的飞行大大节省了审批时间。当天下午18时许就获得了民航局的批复。与此同时,高空医护团队携带着重达200千克的全套ICU设备赶赴天津基地。
2013年11月29日凌晨3时许,华彬亚盛航空医疗急救飞机历时4小时飞抵香港机场,圆满完成了本次转运任务。华彬亚盛孙永安总裁呼吁:“作为社会事业型企业,政策的支持对我们任务的顺利进行起到了至关重要的作用。如果政府在现有的绿色通道基础上,能够给予优先审批、优先放行的支持,将有助于中国航空急救的长足进步!”
