Leidian town in Deqing county, Huzhou, Zhejiang province, recently unveiled its plans to establish the first aircraft 6S store in the Yangtze River Delta in collaboration with the Star Aviation Club.

The club will spearhead a general aircraft sales cluster operation in Deqing, establishing the East China General Aircraft (6S) Trading and Exhibition Center.

The center, focusing on general aircraft sales, will offer a suite of services encapsulated by the 6S concept: sale, servicing, spare parts, school for pilots, special finance, and supporting operation.

The 6S store will serve as a one-stop destination for pilot license acquisition, aircraft transactions, documentation processing, maintenance, and storage services, according to Xu Yifeng, the club's general manager. By facilitating the circulation and repurposing of new and pre-owned aircraft, the store is poised to drive down operational costs and propel the sustainable growth of the general aviation sector.

Deqing's strategic location at the core of the Yangtze River Delta economic zone, coupled with the area's well-connected transportation network, positions it favorably for this endeavor. The 6S store will leverage the Kunlun hangar of the Moganshan Airport, with construction being planned and implemented in multiple phases, totaling an area exceeding 15,000 square meters.
