Recently, Guangdong EHang General Aviation Co., Ltd. and Hefei Heyi Aviation Co., Ltd. also received the civil unmanned aircraft operation certificate (OC) issued by the Civil Aviation Administration of China, which is the first batch of manned civil unmanned aircraft operation certificate in China, which means that China's low-altitude flight has opened the "manned era" and created a new milestone in low-altitude economy and urban air mobility.
OC (Operation Certificate) is a qualification certificate issued by the Civil Aviation Administration of China to operators, indicating that enterprises have the ability to carry out commercial flights safely and compliantly. If the low-altitude economy is compared to "building a car", the three airworthiness certificates (TC/PC/AC) solve the problem of "car can be built", and OC determines that "car can be on the road". OC is used to confirm that human-carrying aircraft meet safety standards and operational requirements. Enterprises holding OCs can conduct commercial operations in approved areas and provide paid manned operation services.

The low-altitude economy is again welcoming favorable policies
“City Fly”有望接棒“City Walk”
Recently, the General Office of the State Council forwarded the notice of the Ministry of Commerce on Several Measures to Support the Cultivation and Construction of International Consumption Center Cities. In the section of "promoting the quality and expansion of service consumption", a number of policy measures related to the low-altitude economy are mentioned. How will "City Fly" fly over the city in the future?
In the "Several Measures to Support the Cultivation and Construction of International Consumption Center Cities", it is mentioned that it is necessary to explore the opening of low-altitude logistics routes, the development of low-altitude tourism projects, and the expansion of low-altitude consumption scenarios in areas with safety conditions. Experts believe that the development of the low-altitude economy can play a supporting role in boosting consumption and expanding domestic demand.
Bai Ming, a member of the Academic Degree Committee of the Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce, said that on the one hand, the low-altitude economy can create more consumer demand, and on the other hand, the low-altitude economy can also provide support for the development of related industries. Especially e-commerce, ambulance and rescue, disaster relief, etc. In recent years, tourism has also been closely linked to the development of the low-altitude economy.
據中國民航局此前預測,到2025年我國低空經濟的市場規模將達到1.5萬億元。目前,外賣無人機配送等場景已在北京、上海等多地試點。業內人士認為,物流領域是低空經濟能較早落地的典型商業化應用場景之一。工信部預計,未來5年內我國無人機數量將突破千萬架。
深圳市無人機行業協會會長楊金才稱,全國現在已經有超過30個城市,有物流無人機飛起來了。而且像深圳這樣的城市,每天有5000到10000次的快遞外賣飛行。這樣規模的城市,如果在同一個時間點有10萬架各種不同的無人機、載人機在空中飛行,才能形成真正的低空經濟。
