Competence in use of instruments to be required for flights into Beijing
Many pilots flying scheduled airliners in China must become qualified to land in poor visibility if they want to fly to Beijing next year.
Starting on Jan 1, pilots of flights from the top 10 busiest airports to Beijing Capital International Airport must be qualified to land using an instrument-landing system on hazy days with visibility of around 400 meters, according to the Civil Aviation Administration of China.
