The Power of Data, The Power of Connected - 2019 Connected Aircraft China Congress successfully held in Shanghai

According to the development forecast, by 2035, China annual passenger number will reach 1.4 billion, and civil aviation itself has become a massive data carrier that brings together people, logistics, business flow, information flow and capital flow. As the industry continuing to improve the safety management and operation level of civil aviation, optimizing operation and operational efficiency, and improving passenger satisfaction, the on-board interconnection faces unprecedented opportunities for development. Through the analysis and application of real-time interconnected big data, the airport network, route network and information network will be deeply integrated and developed, and the civil aviation network, digitization and intelligence will be fully realized.

Hosted by the Civil Aircraft Operation Support Technology Sub-committee of CSAA; Organized by COMAC Shanghai Aircraft Customer Service Co.,Ltd. and Galleon (Shanghai) Consulting Co., Ltd. the “2019 Connected Aircraft China Congress (CAC2019)” was successfully held in Shanghai from April 17^th to 18^th.
