A helicopter fully loaded with passengers recently completed its test flight from Shanghai's Pudong Software Park to Qidong Linyang Park in neighboring Jiangsu province, marking another step forward in low-altitude passenger transport development and connectivity advancement in the Yangtze River Delta region.
Flying across the Yangtze River and Chongming Island, the flight route has greatly reduced the transportation time between Shanghai's Pudong New Area and Qidong. While the trip usually takes 1.5 hours, the helicopter flight only took 20 minutes, significantly improving transport efficiency in the region.
