Local officials aim to position Anshun as a benchmark city for China's low-altitude economic development, fostering innovation in aircraft R&D, manufacturing, and trial operations. The order represents a significant milestone for EHang, validating its product's reliability following its regulatory certifications and supporting the company's expansion into commercial low-altitude aviation markets. Guizhou Tourism Group views the introduction of pilotless aircraft as transformative for its tourism offerings, enhancing the region's appeal and pioneering innovation in the sector.
