The AS700 airship, capable of carrying up to 10 passengers, including the pilot, boasts a maximum range of 700 kilometres. The airship is known for its safety features, including a special shell design and a system with an adjustable thrust vector that enables vertical take-off and landing.
The AS700 has received certification from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) and will provide passengers with a unique bird’s-eye view of the surrounding area, China Daily, a partner of TV BRICS reported.
“The potential of airships in China is very large,” stated a spokesperson for the AS700 project. “The low-altitude market is expected to grow rapidly, and the AS700 could be a key element in this industry.”
