China has achieved over 5.8 million hours of safety flying record so far, according to the source from the General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (CAAC).

As China's aviation industry developed rapidly in recent years, it will pose new challenges to the future growth. The Chinese government will spare no efforts in reducing aircraft crashes and ensuring flight safety, said Yang Yuanyuan, minister of CAAC.

He said China's airports were growing bigger, and more runaways were built in recent years. As foreign airlines, charter flights, and transit flights kept increasing, higher demand were raised for aviation safety.
