Economic Daily: Unlocking Greater Value in Low-altitude Airspace

The Economic Daily article states that the core of solving the difficulty in ensuring low-level airspace lies in handling the issues of "who owns," "who decides," and "who uses" resources effectively. It is necessary to transform the low-level airspace from a potential, regulated natural resource into a measurable, priced, and efficiently allocable production factor, in order to truly unleash its immense economic and social value. Therefore, the establishment of a basic system for low-level airspace ownership should be based on the values of economic development and social service, with the fundamental goal of releasing the value of national strategic resources and guided by the principles of "safety, efficiency, and fairness." In general, establishing a sound system for low-level airspace ownership should not only empower economic development by transforming low-level airspace from a "regulated space" to an "economically exploitable resource," but also focus on enhancing social public service capabilities, ensuring that low-level airspace serves the public interest, prioritizing and facilitating flight activities that are crucial to people's well-being, and establishing a "green channel."
