The History of Air Transportation in China

For centuries, China has been a major air transportation hub. China was an ideal location for early air travel due to its unique geography and abundance of water. The first recorded flight in China occurred in 1796, when an aerial balloon transporting the French ambassador left Beijing for Guangzhou.


The first Chinese-made airplane took off from Shanghai and flew to Wuhan in 1876. A Chinese pilot flew the country's first airplane across the Pacific Ocean from Shanghai to San Francisco in 1903. During the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), aviation grew rapidly in popularity in China because Emperor Pu Yi was a noted enthusiast who funded extensive research into aviation technology. By 1911, China had over 1,000 registered airplanes, making it one of the world's leading aviation nations at the time.

During WWII, however, Japan occupied much of China and cut off all access to Western aircraft technology. This prevented China from developing its own advanced aviation industry and limited domestic air travel until 1945, when WWII ended. Because of its burgeoning population and growing economic prosperity after WWII, many Western aviation companies began establishing operations in postwar China. This influx of new technology resulted in rapid growth in Chinese aviation over the next several decades, with annual passenger traffic exceeding one million by 1969. However, after Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), which disrupted transportation and other sectors of society throughout the country, this growth slowed significantly.
