## Description

Since the 1950s, Yanliang on the northeastern edge of Xi'an has been the proving ground of China's aircraft industry: the air base hosts the China Flight Test Establishment (CFTE) and manufacturer Xi'an Aircraft Corporation (XAC), where new military and transport aircraft make their first flights. The field is closed to civil traffic — no scheduled flights, no IATA or ICAO code, no cargo handling of any kind. Freight forwarders serving the Xi'an region work through Xi'an Xianyang International (XIY), northwest China's leading cargo airport with integrator and e-commerce operations.
