Core Viewpoint - Sichuan province is actively promoting low-altitude economic development through extensive reforms and initiatives, aiming to maximize the utilization of low-altitude airspace and enhance safety and efficiency in operations [1][2][3]. Group 1: Low-altitude Airspace Management - Sichuan has planned over 400,000 square kilometers of reportable airspace to release low-altitude resources [1]. - The province transitioned from an "approval system" to a "reporting system" for airspace management, allowing drone operators to report only one hour before takeoff [2]. - The trial airspace in Sichuan has expanded from 7,800 square kilometers in 2017 to nearly 80,000 square kilometers by 2025, with expectations for full coverage across 21 cities by the end of 2026 [3]. Group 2: Development of Low-altitude Economic Applications - Eight new low-altitude transport routes were announced, including four manned routes and two cargo routes for both manned and unmanned aircraft [4]. - The province is establishing a joint investment mechanism to promote various low-altitude applications, including passenger transport and drone logistics [4]. - The introduction of a "cherry route" using drones for transporting fresh produce has increased farmers' income by approximately 20% [5]. Group 3: Infrastructure and Future Plans - Sichuan plans to accelerate the construction of general airports and enhance the functionality of transport airports to improve low-altitude infrastructure [5]. - The province aims to strengthen policy support and service for the low-altitude economy, focusing on high-quality development and nurturing leading enterprises [5].
