World’s largest amphibious aircraft makes maiden flight in China Sunday Dec 24,2017



China’s domestically developed AG600, the world’s largest amphibious aircraft, performed its maiden flight on Sunday Dec 24,2017 from an airport on the shores of the South China Sea, the latest step in a military modernisation programme.

State television showed live images of the AG600 lifting off from Zhuhai airport in the southern province of Guangdong, which sits on the South China Sea coast.

It returned about an hour later and taxied to its stand accompanied by martial music and greeted by crowds waving Chinese flags.
