It seems to be one of two things:

1) a joke

2) an actual communist china advertiser decided this website is important enough to attempt PR.



I also wonder if "AOPA China"  is actually  an AOPA affiliated association or if they intentionally said  "aircraft owner and pilot associations"  and then just used the same abbreviation. 


The latter is actually quite plausible... which would still make it spam wouldn't it?   Although I guess it's not technically spam if "many" actually starts posting.



I was thinking this when I saw it posted last night, but decided to let others worry about it what it classifies as since it didn't seem to be doing any harm at the time and went to bed...

AOPA China!

It's kinda funny. Not sure if they have much "private airplane owners" over there......

I would not be surprised really. Economically, in the least, China is growing greatly. Money is there, growth is there, China is already bigger market in luxury cars then Germany (or very close behind), so why not general aviation?

because I think that there isn't much "real" growth in China, most of it is doctored by it's government bound to collapse.....
The idea that China has not put a tight reign on who or what can fly in it's airspace is hard to believe.
