A new heliport in Zhongshan's Fusha Town has received official approval from China's Civil Aviation Administration, marking a significant milestone in advancing the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area's low-altitude aviation infrastructure and addressing the regional gap in facilities for dynamic testing and static maintenance of low-altitude aircraft. To date, the base has attracted 14 low-altitude economy-related industrial projects.
Construction of the Fusha Low-Altitude Economy Industrial Base commenced in January 2024. Phase I, now completed, includes a 400-meter taxiway and an 8,000-square-meter high-standard hangar. Phase II broke ground in early May 2025 and features a 200 mu (13.333 acres) grass airfield, an 800-meter runway, and a 20,000-square-meter hangar complex. Full completion of Phase II is anticipated by August 2025.
The base is positioned as a multi-functional hub focusing on three core areas: industry-education-research programs aimed at youth, pilot licensing training, and low-altitude cultural tourism initiatives. Notably, it aims to apply for designation as a national-level aviation camp.
