TG空军占了52%空域，民航只占20%，是训练水平差还是啥？

到2020年民机数量要到4200架翻番，现在准点率74.5%霉国82%，是空军和ZF部门一样不愿放权还是训练水平差还是啥？

China’s skies don’t have enough space.

The country’s air force controls airspace and allots only 20 percent to civil aviation. With China’s three biggest airlines planning to add at least 273 planes in the next three years, traffic congestion that already delays 25 percent of flights is set to worsen.

China’s air force, which has controlled the airspace since the People’s Republic was established in 1949, has started gradually relaxing some of the curbs.

“At present, the limited airspace resource has restricted the development of civil aviation,” said Li Jiaxiang, the head of Civil Aviation Administration of China. “We will strive to further open up the airspace,” he said in Beijing yesterday.

Air China Ltd. (601111), China Eastern (670) Airlines Corp. and China Southern Airlines Co. (1055) have expanded their fleet as economic growth spurs air travel demand in the world’s most populous nation. The country is expected to have 4,200 commercial aircraft in 2020, compared with the current fleet size of 2,001 with 46 airlines, CAAC’s Li said.

China’s civil aviation uses about a fifth of available routes of the nation’s total airspace, Shi Boli, who heads the department of Air Transportation Regulation at CAAC, said in an interview. Military controls about 52 percent of airspace in eastern China, home to the country’s biggest cities of Beijing and Shanghai, according to a 2011 June report by the official China News Service.

“We are working hard and the military is also trying to improve the management of airspace,” Shi said. “But, it could take some time to achieve some improvement.”

U.S. Airspace
In the U.S., military restrictions don’t have much impact on civilian aviation because its airways tend to be located in desert regions or over oceans, far away from the busy airport hubs in cities such as New York, said Kevin Hiatt, president of Alexandria, Virginia-based Flight Safety Foundation. The military has also allowed its airspace to be used by civilian flights on some occasions such as busy holiday periods, he said.

Airspace over Europe is managed as a single unit and segregated on a “dynamic basis according to the needs of users,” air traffic supervisory agency Eurocontrol said. In general, areas will only be reserved for military use at certain times and at certain altitudes, it said in an e-mail.

The on-time performance rate of China’s airlines was about 74.5 percent last year, CAAC’s Shi said. In the U.S., 82 percent of the flights arrived on time in 2012, according to Bureau of Transportation statistics.
‘New Leadership’
“People are hoping that the country’s new leadership can have a breakthrough in getting more airspace released to accommodate the rapid growth,” said Kelvin Lau, a Hong Kong-based analyst at Daiwa Securities Group Inc. “Otherwise, delays will persist and hurt the airlines’ long term growth prospects.”

China’s air force, which has controlled the airspace since the People’s Republic was established in 1949, has started gradually relaxing some of the curbs. It has begun to open low-altitude airspace and released more information about the availability of temporary routes, the Official Xinhua News Agency reported in August.

Still, the pace isn’t quick enough to catch up with the airlines’ growth as the number of annual passengers has more than doubled in the past seven years, said David Wei, an aerospace analyst with Shanghai Securities Co.

‘Historical Reasons’
“The military has a bigger say in China’s airspace usage for historical reasons,” Wei said. “It has no incentive to concede the right unless the government wants it to.”

Four calls to the press office of China’s Ministry of National Defense went unanswered today. Questions faxed to the office also didn’t receive an immediate reply.

Airspace congestion is severe in main locations around China’s big hubs, according to Andrew Herdman, director-general of the Kuala Lumpur-based Association of Asia Pacific Airlines.

“You need flexibility. The military need access to airspace but not all the time,” Herdman said. “The big reality is that civil aviation has grown spectacularly and will continue to do so. And that has to be taken into account.”

Airspace restrictions also force airlines to fly longer distances on some routes, said Liu Jieyin, executive vice president at closely-held Okay Airways Co., which operates flights between cities including Tianjin, Hangzhou and Sanya.

Military Drills
“This is still better than before when we had to wait on ground for hours for the completion of military drills,” Liu said. “We couldn’t take proactive measures as we wouldn’t know drills until the last minute and couldn’t tell passengers the real reason either.”

Air China (753), Asia’s biggest carrier by market value, will receive 113 aircraft in the next three years, according to a company statement. China Eastern will add 93 planes in two years while China Southern will have 67 additions this year, the carriers have said.

‘Tomorrow’s growth will further pressure the system,’’ said Will Horton, a Hong Kong-based analyst at CAPA Centre for Aviation, which advises airlines. “While reforms are gradually being made, the military seems impervious to the government’s wish for more airspace.”

While carriers await the easing of airspace rules, the nation is expanding its airport infrastructure. Beijing has won approval for its new facility with an investment of more than 70 billion yuan ($11 billion), Beijing News reported in January. The country targets to have 260 airports by 2020 from 183 at present.

“The emergence of a rapidly growing middle-class with aspirations to travel, along with record levels of urbanization and continued growth in business, has created a pressing need for better aviation infrastructure across China,” said Will Lau, an aviation consultant with EC Harris (Hong Kong) Ltd. Still, “the physical assets on the ground will not effectively respond to the passenger demand unless additional capacity is also made available in the skies above.”
