The aviation industry is shifting to Asia-Pacific. China is already building the repair hubs.

Описание: In the next twenty years, over half the world's market for aviation will be in China and South Asia.

Demand forecasts from Airbus and Boeing call for thousands of new planes, with hundreds of thousands of jobs to maintain and repair them.

Hainan Island has already built a premier maintenance hub, and one of the world's largest hubs is under construction in Kunming.

Both are ideally located to serve most of the world's population, within four hours' flying time. They also are in Free Trade Zones, and aircraft enjoy fast turnaround times, without tariffs and customs fees.
