1. What are the rules for high-altitude flight test?

The rules that all aircraft must abide by in flight are the specific rules formulated to protect the safety of life and property and avoid collision: (1) Aircraft shall not fly near the area where it may collide with another aircraft; Don't fly in the restricted area unless you get special permission; Flying near the airport should follow the rules over the airport. As they approached, the two planes moved in opposite directions and turned right respectively. When they met, the plane on the left gave way to the plane on the right. When overtaking, the overtaking person should change the height or turn right. When landing, the plane in the air or on the ground gives way to the plane that landed last, and the plane with high altitude gives way to the plane with low altitude. When taking off, the taxiing plane makes way for the taking-off plane.

Foreign media reported that the FAA spokesman said:? Although the FAA realized the importance of promoting business growth and innovation and took prompt action, we will not forget the responsibility of maintaining public safety in this process.
