新政策的狂想与解读 U-Jet： The Regulations states that except for nine scenarios， general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures， but it follows that flight plans have to be submitted for approval. Isn’t it self-contradictory？ Jin Junhao： It is not self-contradictory. The 2003 Regulations for General Aviation Flight Control states that general aviation in China has to go through two levels of approval： the “flight mission” approval， which is about the nature of the flight， under the jurisdiction of the flight control department of the Air Force， and “flight plan” approval， which is about flight schedule， route， altitude， origin and destination airport， under the jurisdiction of CAAC. If you understand this difference， you will find it easier to understand the statements in the Regulation. From now on， except for the nine scenarios， general aviation activities will no longer need to go through “flight mission” approval， but “flight plan” approval is still required. The two statements are not contradictory to each other. U-Jet： So you are saying the Regulation has no direct relation with the opening-up of low altitude airspace. Jin Junhao： You can say that. The Regulation is issued mainly to simplify general aviation approval procedures. It has no direct link with low altitude airspace. Due to the misunderstanding of the two concepts， “flight mission” and “flight plan”， the statement “except for the below nine scenarios， general aviation missions do not need to undergo application and approval procedures” is misinterpreted as airspace opening-up. But the ultimate goal is the same—to make it freer and more convenient for general aviation， only that the Regulation works on simplifying procedures， while low altitude opening-up aims to expand free flying airspace. U-Jet： With the Regulation， how much faster would it be for general aviation approval？ Jin Junhao： It depends. General aviation activities not included in the 9 scenarios will surely
