Share - WeChat

A new helicopter service was launched recently in Shizuishan, Ningxia Hui autonomous region, providing low-altitude flights over the city.
Local passengers say they like the flight, which gives them views of their hometown from a new aerial perspective in a Bell 470 helicopter. The aircraft can carry out various tasks with greater horsepower, higher-altitudes and a more spacious cabin, said Su Xin, general manager of Ningxia Hexiang General Aviation Co, the service provider.
The helicopter can easily handle the 20-minute trip over the region's five cities, helping to drive the growth of the low-altitude tourism economy.
