What got you started in the aviation industry? There were only a few entertainment options when I was a teenager. Reading was one of my hobbies. After school, I spent most of my time in the library or in bookstores. One day I read a chapter about airplanes in an encyclopedia. It described various aircraft with short stories and nice pictures. The stories fuelled my imagination about how they would fly. I thought it would be terrific if I could take a flight or even operate an aircraft. My curiosity drove me to go to the Civil Aviation College, where I majored in air traffic management. My aviation career began in 1984, after I graduated. I started as an airport tower controller and for more than 20 years, I worked for almost all the air traffic control units, including approach control, area control centre, air traffic management and training departments around Shenyang, Shanghai, Zhuhai and Guangzhou.
