Sky is the limit for jobseekers in aviation

With China's plans to open up low-altitude airspace ready for takeoff, the general aviation sector is making a promising contribution to the country's lofty goal to add 10 million new jobs each year.

Looking to help cultivate the country's first generation of private pilots, the Yuying Vocation School in eastern Zhejiang province is recruiting students for a three-year helicopter training course. It enrolls up to 30 high school graduates. The course costs 56,400 yuan ($8,600) for three years. The school says graduates can expect an annual salary of more than $30,000 in return.

"We believe there's a remarkable market ahead. Our students won't need to worry about a job once they get the license," said Zhang Shengqiang from Yuying's recruitment office.
